Me, last night - I‘m not reading the #wpnf2025 list this year, I‘m saving myself for the Fiction list.

Also me, at 8am this morning - hmmm, these all look very interesting.

Me again, mid-afternoon - oh, I have a meeting *quite* near the library, might just pop in.

Me once more, a bit later in the afternoon - oops - I seem to have made a spreadsheet and reserved or borrowed nearly all of the books!

🤦‍♀️

BarbaraBB Who were you kidding by thinking you wouldn‘t read the NF longlist!? 4w
Centique Ha ha 😂 Its a kind service to those of us who will just pick and choose from your reviews! 4w
LeahBergen 😆 I was just reading about Peepshow. I may need it! 4w

squirrelbrain Only myself, of course! 🤪 @BarbaraBB 4w
ferskner You are my people. 4w
squirrelbrain Why, thank you! @Centique ☺️ I shall do my best! 4w
squirrelbrain I‘ve just started that one first @LeahBergen as someone else has reserved it at the library already. Only 2 chapters in, but I‘d recommend it so far. 4w
ChaoticMissAdventures So many sound so good!! I love that I had only 2 on my radar! 4w
TheKidUpstairs 🤣 I also want going to read the long list. I also have about 75% of it on hold right now at the library. 🤷‍♀️ I have no willpower when it comes to the Women's Prize! 4w
LeahBergen @squirrelbrain Good to know! I‘ll add it to my list 👍 4w
squirrelbrain Yes @ChaoticMissAdventures - not many on my radar either, although I‘d read extracts from a few in the press here but then completely forgot about them! (The Story of a Heart, Peepshow and Sister in Law) 4w
squirrelbrain @ferskner - so nice that we can all be book-crazy together! 🤪 4w
Jas16 I keep stress buying books so am already about to be buried in packages. I cannot succumb to the list. 4w
Ruthiella Your cunning plan was foiled! 😂 4w
Suet624 What @Centique said. 4w
Suet624 @Jas16 I‘m in the same boat. 4w
Chelsea.Poole Good job holding back 😆 these three sound very interesting to me. I was able to borrow 4w
sarahbarnes Go forth I say! You can never read too many books! 📚 4w
AnneCecilie I‘m looking forward to your thoughts on all of the pictured books. They sound so interesting 4w

Here‘s a few ideas for books that *may* be on the Women‘s Prize NF longlist. #wpnf2025

I have the top 3 reserved on BorrowBox. Not sure about the Darian but I *think* she has written this in English. Same with Looking at Women, which I‘ve read. I‘ve also read The Lasting Harm.

The rest I‘ve found by poking through various lists and are all books I‘d like to read. Not sure how many I‘ll *actually* read this year - might save myself for fiction!

youneverarrived Lots of interesting sounding books! Looking forward to the Sarah Moss. 1mo
Hooked_on_books I always enjoy when people do predictions. I‘m not good at them, so I don‘t try. These look interesting! I‘ve read the Moss and it‘s good. The writing is quite different. 1mo
Cathythoughts I must look up these books. 👍🏻❤️ (edited) 1mo
squirrelbrain I‘m no good at predictions either @Hooked_on_books ! I would think that *none* of these will be on the list. 🤪 @youneverarrived @Cathythoughts 1mo
