I have a few of these on my tbr. Looking forward to Red Mars, which I haven't read yet. I have a feeling that I will like that series, and bought red, green and blue already. smh

Good luck and happy reading, Joy!

Interesting mix, Joy. The Moonstone is excellent. I've tried other books by Unsworth and Robinson and enjoyed them. I hope you enjoy your selections. I do need to check out Cronin. He's one Sci Fi author I've yet to explore

Melissa | 148 comments I really enjoyed The Moonstone and have the Power of One on my list for 2026. I look forward to reading Twain at some point in the near future since I always love a Chernow biography. Looks like a really great list.
