Page-Burner: A Semi-Regular Guessing Game
April 8, 2008

I've been on a book-buying binger (yes, these continue, despite the overstuffed closet of galleys and the e-reader), so I thought it was time for another installment of "Page-Burner." If you read through, you'll find a little Maven-ish lagniappe, too.

Which of the following books is keeping me up late this week? (NB: All of them are in my bedside stack.)

Is it the new Minette Walters?



The much-reviewed Jhumpa Lahiri?



What about this Barcelona-based cousin to Pillars of the Earth?



Or could it be the sequel to Chocolat

Maybe, just maybe, it's Sepulchre by Kate Mosse:

I've leave it to you, now. The first person to guess correctly wins a pristine, unread copy of The Girl with No Shadow by Joanne Harris (because the one in my bedside stack is the advance reader's copy).

I'm going to guess Cathedral of the Sea (though I was torn between choosing that one or Sepulchre...).

I will officially guess Girl With No Shadow (though I was also torn and think it may be Minette Walters).

I'm going to guess Girl in the Shadow, just because.... that's what I would want to read.
