Hello
The National Year of Reading may have ended, but in the book world life goes on.
The first big event this year is the announcement of the winner of the 2008 Costa Book of the Year on 27 January. The nominees are the winners of the individual categories that were announced at the end of last year. They are
First novel: Sadie Jones - The Outcast
Novel: Sebastian Barry - The Secret Scripture
Biography: Diana Athill - Somewhere Towards the End
Poetry: Adam Foulds - The Broken Word
Children: Michelle Magorian - Just Henry
I've not read any of them myself, so can't pass comment, but if you've read one or more then please let us know what you thought. I'll let you know the winner when it's announced (and not before!)
Until next time
Suzanne
