- The Hare With Amber Eyes by Edmund de Waal - Just about everyone's favourite book, I think.
- English Eccentrics by Edith Sitwell - A Folio Society edition, I already own a copy of this, but it's in paperback, I couldn't resist it.
- Love Undetectable by Andrew Sullivan - Everyone's favourite gay conservative. A collection of essays, including a very good one on the "gay cure" movement.
- At Home by Bill Bryson - I haven't read Bryson in years. I wondered why he stopped writing travel books?
- The Darkened Room by Alex Owen - An examination of women & Spiritualism in Victorian England. This one is for my thesis, but I have a feeling I am going to enjoy reading it.
- Intimate Journals by Charles Baudelaire
- Keep the River on Your Right by Tobias Schneebaum - I have been wanting to read this one for years. Gay New Yorker goes to South America, lives with a cannibal tribe and has sex with the warriors. And it's all true!
- Julian of Norwich: A Contemplative Biography by Amy Frykholm - This one was recommended on a blog I read and like. I have been fascinated by Julian of Norwich for many years.
- I'm Over All That by Shirley Maclaine
- For Nelson Mandela - Oh dear, I bought this one by accident.
- Joan Crawford by David Bret
