Booklover Bites: February 2014 releases that caught my eye

Whether it’s a new book from authors we love, or an intriguing premise that’s worthy of a taking a chance on, here is a selection of the titles being released in February 2014 (or very late January) that caught my eye:

Kinder Than Solitude by Yiyun Li (paperback | ebook)

One Plus One by Jojo Moyes (paperback | ebook)

The Good Luck of Right Now by Matthew Quick (paperback | ebook)

An Unnecessary Woman by Rabih Alameddine (paperback | ebook)

Deserving Death by Katherine Howell (paperback | ebook)

Dismal Science by Peter Mountford (paperback )

Tales from the Eternal Cafe by Janet Hamill (paperback )

A Fairy Tale by Jonas Bengtsson (paperback | ebook)

The Martian by Andy Weir (paperback | ebook)

The News by Alain de Botton (paperback | ebook)

Lots of interesting titles being released – far too many for me to keep up the pace. Of particular note, Aussie Author Katherine Howell is releasing her seventh installment of her popular Ella Marconi Series and authors whose work I’ve previously enjoyed, Jojo Moyes and Alain de Botton have new offerings.

An Unnecessary Woman is described as ‘a love letter to literature’ and premise of The Dismal Science appeals to the philosophical geek in me.
