Books (The Rest of) 2012's Most Anticipated Books
Posted by Alison Hallett on Mon, Jul 2, 2012 at 10:14 AM
The Millions has just released the second half of their 2012 "most anticipated books" list, and it's a doozy. Personally, I'm super excited to get my hands on new novels by George Saunders, Lydia Millet, and AM Holmes, but there's plenty for all tastes including fans of David Foster Wallace, J.K. Rowling, Junot Diaz, TC Boyle, Tom Wolfe, Sandra Cisneros, Zadie Smith, and on and on. It's kind of ridiculous how much good stuff the next six months has in store for us.
