Orange January

I'm starting 2012 off with six novels that are almost gauranteed to be fabulous reads. After all, they were nominated for the 2011 Orange Prize. Although I only started paying attention to the Orange Prize last year, I've yet to be disappointed by a Orange Prize book, winner or nominee.

The Orange Prize for Fiction celebrates full-length works of fiction written in English by female authors. I'm not sure what order I'll be reading but, if any of the books catch your fantasy, read it and leave a comment.

Without further ado, I present the books I will be reading for Orange January:




Great House by Nicole Krauss



Annabel by Kathleen Winter



Room by Emma Donoghue

Grace Williams Says It Loud by Emma Henderson

The Memory of Love  by Aminatta Forna

The Tiger's Wife by Tea Obreht
