    These all sound brilliant. I'm only familiar with Hwang Sok Yong, and I'm looking forward to reading all six books this year. 💛

    Will Self said in a Booker Prize review that he read an adult intelligence level novel in 1hour 53minutes! WOW!! It took me about 3 days to read an abridged children's version of 'Black Beauty'. I am a poor reader but even so. These Booker Prize judges are geniuses!

    Nice! I've already read half of the shortlist: Not a River, What I'd rather not think about and The Details. My favourite so far has been Not a River!
