I'd add more, but then I'd have no time left to write! I think fifteen new books is enough to see me through to the end of the year.

Great list Kirsten - happy reading! I was tempted to add a few to my growing TBR list - for now added the one from Turkey - thanks.

I appreciated your Turkey pick for the author's honesty.

I'm not reading my pick for India yet, but picked up a book from the library - Miss Timmins' School for Girls. It's also set in India and I adore it. I'm only half way through, can't wait to finish it!

I love little surprise finds like that.
Nice list as well. A few there I haven't heard of, so looking forward to hearing your thoughts on them.

Just posted my review of Miss Timmins' School for Girls. I LOVED IT!

That does sound good, and a bit different - I might read it too.
