None of these works is in my library service yet :(

I think some of them like The Bone Clocks are not even out yet. Some like We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves have been out ages though.

How can it be nominated for,a prize if it hasn't been released? That's stupid. Well I think it is stupid anyway :)

I have The Narrow Road to the Deep North in my TBR, as well as (now, lucky me!) Us from the long list.I want to get hold of The Bone Clocks as I've loved everything by David Mitchell. I was unimpressed with The Finkler Question (Howard Jacobson) and Netherland (Joseph O'Neill) so I won't bother with those authors again.
