 </p><p>Manhattan Beach, Elmet, and Sing Unburied Sing were all requested because of an article in Locus Magazine that said they were nominees for the Women's Prize which were of genre interest.  (They all have elements of magical realism, I believe.) For some reason when I put the link in here it says it's behind a firewall but if you google "locus magazine womens prize" the article from March 8, 2018 should come up in the results.</p><p>How to be both was requested by someone who had read it who said it had a ghost. </p><p> </p><p> </p>

Location: Sheffield, UK		Many, many thanks to the UberUsers for hacking away at the list of requests. The work is very much appreciated.

Is it okay to request new books now? If so, could you please add DarkSoul by Anna Stephens, the second in her Godblind trilogy? It was released in the UK (and I believe the US as well) in August.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/36896810-darksoul

Many thanks in advance.
