The longlist has just come out, Initially I was shocked as I hadn’t a lot of the books, and also, a number weren’t out. of the list, I have just finished The Book of Disappearance and had read Solenoid last year but had wanted to reread it before reviewing it and never got to it. So, I will be starting that today. I have the Heart of the Lamp on my TBR and have ordered all the other books I don’t own. I will just be doing it myself for this long. I will have a review for the book of the disappearance up in the next couple of days and hope to finish at least another book by the end of the week when they come tomorrow. Have you read any what are your thoughts on this years Longlist
