Seasonal Booklists

There are almost too many books published each year and there is little enough time to choose what you want.  We seek to make the decisions of what to read (and what to give) much simpler and much more enjoyable.

A few times a year we produce a list of recommended books covering what we consider to be the most exciting of the new releases over many genres.

Previous lists can be downloaded below. To automatically receive future lists, please email us at books@barnesbookshop.com and we will add you to the mailing list.
