Boy, Snow, Bird by Helen Oyeyemi (March)
Boy, Snow, Bird
Mr. Fox was incredible. I am in the queue for this one at the library. 


Veronica Mars: The Thousand Dollar Tan Line By Rob Thomas and Jennifer Graham (March)
The Thousand Dollar Tan Line (Veronica Mars, #1)
I love Veronica Mars. I loved the show. I loved the movie. I will read the books. That is all. 


The Empathy Exams (April)
The Empathy Exams: Essays
This collection of essays explores the ways in which we relate to each other. How should we react to other people's pain? 


Love and Treasure
My hubby would say that this book was right up my alley. It's about the Hungarian Gold Train, which transported valuables confiscated from Hungarian Jews during WWII. I've read another book by Waldman and I can't wait to see what she does with historical fiction.


Found: A Story of Questions, Grace, and Everyday Prayer by Micha Boyett (April)
Found: A Story of Questions, Grace, and Everyday Prayer
I am an avid reader of Micha's blog. She is down to earth as she documents her life with her husband and two little boys, but her graceful prose will make you rethink the way you approach love and faith. 


The Snow Queen by Michael Cunningham (May)
The Snow Queen: A Novel
The novel The Hours is one of my all time favorites. I'm excited to read his newest book and see how or if it connects to the fairy tale. 


Lost for Words by Edward St. Aubyn (May)
Lost for Words: A Novel
Edward St. Aubyn is a writer of great acclaim. I wasn't sure which of his books to start with, but this story about the writers vying for The Elysian Prize for Literature sounds wonderful. 


The Rise and Fall of Great Powers by Tom Rachman (May)
The Rise & Fall of Great Powers: A Novel
Tom Rachman's debut The Imperfectionists was stunning. I can't wait to see what he can do with his second book. 


The Angel of Losses
When a book is billed as The Tiger's Wife meets The History of Love, you know I am in! 


Tigerman by Nick Harkaway (July)
Tigerman
Nick Harkaway is a genius and his stories are incredibly fun. I loved Angelmaker and just bought The Gone Away World, which I'm really excited to read.
