Intisar Khanani’s next one, Chloe Gong’s first adult book, I think Lucy Foley has a new thriller due out soon.

VERY late to this, but I’m trying to do a bit of a catch up with class 2 before I get on to class 3. I LOVED meeting Dipsy in the initial passage and then reading your questionnaire about her. I agree about not needing to answer al the questions, but they are great prompts.

There doesn’t seem to be a Janeshuff coming up. Other Janes, but not you πŸ™ Might you come up under another name? Ditto for @daedalus and @jillybean…
