The House at the End of Hope Street and Love Letters to the Dead are both on my Goodreads Wish List. *squee* I can't wait to read them!
I'm very intrigued with the short story collection, Pretty Monsters. From Kelly Link's website:
Perfect for readers of George Saunders, Karen Russell, Neil Gaiman, and Aimee Bender, Magic for Beginners is an exquisite, dreamlike dispatch from a virtuoso storyteller who can do seemingly anything. Kelly Link reconstructs modern life through an intoxicating prism, conjuring up unforgettable worlds with humor and humanity. These stories are at once ingenious and deeply moving. They leave the reader astonished and exhilarated.
Since I read and enjoy Karen Russell, Neil Gaiman, and Aimee Bender, I feel confident I'll enjoy these stories!
