I can’t wait for Hoyt, Ward, Balogh, Gibson, Martin, McCarty, Thomas….just about the whole list. May is going to be an exspensive month for me.

So many pretty covers! Well, definitely the Hoyt. Also, the Gibson, McCarthy and possibly the Ranney. Highly recommend the Ashley book.

Oh, I didn’t realize that Elizabeth Hoyt had a book coming out from her Four Soldiers series, I’ll add it to the pre-order list.

I’m really looking forward to Jennifer Ashley’s newest, I just hope it will be as good as the excerpt promises.

All I can say is — the month of May is going to be a very expensive month for me.

Exactly how fast can Mary Balogh crank out these books?? It seems like there is a new one every couple of weeks.

I will definitely be buying the Hoyt and Thomas books and can’t wait to read them.

May looks like a really great month for some long anticipated books. Can’t wait for the Hoyt, Gibson, McCarthy and especially Sherry Thomas and Jennifer Ashley. I’ve wanted to read the Thomas since reading the excerpt at the end of DELICIOUS. I’ve been really intrigued with the Ashley since she posted the excerpt on her website – a truely interesting hero. I’m on the fence about the Stuart and will wait for reviews and reader feedback before taking the plunge. As for the JR Ward, at this point I will likely wait for the paperback release or try to borrow it.

Lindsey Davis’s The Course of Honour – Cool, I didn’t know she’s written anything besides Falco.

I may get Hard and Fast for the cover alone! As for May the only book I’m egarly awaiting is the one released this month, but ordered with a book released in May, I guess my own stupidity doesn’t make it count though.

Laura-

In our “”Eagerly Awaiting””, we do count re-releases of books coming back into print. Also, since many people wait for books to come out in paperback rather than hardback, we allow those on the list as well.

Hopefully some of the books listed for May I will get the end of April now that I have my Kindle. (Nora Roberts, Rachel Gibson, Amanda Quick per Amazon 4/21/09 & 4/28/09-hey every day counts, when you are looking for a book)

For May, I have my eyes on : Eloisa James “”This Duchess of Mine””, Susan Mallery, “”Under Her Skin”” Deirdre Martin “”With A Twist””

You have a typo in the listing for the Sherry Thomas book. The cover says “”Not Quite a Husband,”” but the listing says, “”Not Quite an Angel.””

Lindsey Davis’s The Course of Honour was first published in 1997, so while it may be nice to see a new edition of it, if anyone is “”dying to read”” it they could easily find an older edition rather than waiting until May.
