This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:
Sycamore Row
By John Grisham
Publication Date: October 22
From Amazon:
John Grisham's A Time to Kill is one of the most popular novels of our time. Now we return to that famous courthouse in Clanton as Jake Brigance once again finds himself embroiled in a fiercely controversial trial-a trial that will expose old racial tensions and force Ford County to confront its tortured history.
Seth Hubbard is a wealthy man dying of lung cancer. He trusts no one. Before he hangs himself from a sycamore tree, Hubbard leaves a new, handwritten, will. It is an act that drags his adult children, his black maid, and Jake into a conflict as riveting and dramatic as the murder trial that made Brigance one of Ford County's most notorious citizens, just three years earlier.''

I've only read one Grisham novel, and I enjoyed it. I might have to grab a couple on tape to listen to during my commute. Great pick!
Sounds like an interesting book! I haven't heard of it, thanks for sharing:)
I used to read his book a long time ago before i developed a taste for paranormal and urban fantasy books. Happy reading.
I never read anything by Grisham before but someday I do want to. They have a lot of his books in my library actually.
Great pick!
This sounds really interesting, I'm a big fan of John Grisham.
Happy reading :-)
Great pick this week. Thanks for sharing :)
I confess, I haven't read any Grisham books. But I have family who has and liked them. Hope this one is good.
I'm really exciting for all the new books to come out. @ Lizzy I have such a hard time listening to books, I prefer to read them, I find that I lose a lot of detail when i listen to them.
Sounds interesting, here's hoping its a good one :) Thanks for hosting :)
I loved A Time to Kill, but I read it so long ago, I might need to go back and re-read it before reading this one.
I'm also waiting for this one. Great pick
I haven't read a Grisham novel before, but you've definitely got me intrigued!
Here's my WoW :)

It's been a *very* long time since I read a novel by John Grisham - I think it may be high time I pick another one up! This one sounds intriguing!

Ooh, I want that one too.
Oh wow, I used to LOVE John Grisham and I'll definitely have to reread A Time To Kill before this one comes out!
I have not read a John Grisham book in a while, it may be time to grab one of his books. This one looks interesting.
Haven't read many Grisham books but that one sounds interesting.
Haven't read John Grisham in years -- not sure why -- I always loved them! Thanks for the reminder... think I'll go check out some of his recent releases. ;)

A Time to Kill was the first John Grisham novel I ever read, and is still my favorite, so this may be one I'd read!
I have never read a John Grisham book, but maybe one day I will try one.
This week I am waiting on Where the Stars Still Shine by Trish Doller.
I didn't know he was revisiting this character. I'll have to let my mother know too. Thanks for using it as your WoW!
