    Frankenstein was my initial thought on July but the announcement states that it is signed by the author. I would love Stir of Echoes but again that whole signed by author thing is getting the way.

    After reading the clues, I think your guesses for the July and September books are on the money. I think August is a pretty good guess too; however, it gives me a bit of pause as it feels a little weird that they would publish an AGE for Ahlborn at this point when it wasn't an option for the first two books. (I would have killed for an AGE of Brother since there is no other hardcover version of this book and I can't really afford to hop on the Suntup numbered editions bandwagon). In terms of desirability, it's going to boil down to the price of the AGEs this go-round as none of these are must-owns for me.
    You make a good point. I didn't think about the first two books not having an Artist Edition. Since this isn't really a set of books, having an Artist Edition wouldn't be too crazy, but now I have my doubts on this title.

    I really hope your August guess is correct as I would love to own that title! Have always wanted to read Stir of Echoes but have never had any luck finding a hardcover copy in any of my local bookstores.

    Yup, I meant The Bird Eater. I don't know how I got that mixed up!

    I had the same thought.

    Strange to start with the AGEs at book 3.

    September Book: THE STEPFORD WIVES by Ira Levin

    If my guesses are correct, I might actually be tempted by some of these.

    Wise guesses, you could be right. If so, I’m probably good to pass on the lot. The Levin book would be of interest, but I have a Fine/Fine 1st HC of that one, and that’s probably sufficient…though we’ll see what extra content, if any, is offered.

    My guesses are very close to yours:
    July: The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton
    August: Ania Ahlborn (I do not know her work enough to guess which book.)
    September: The Stepford Wifes by Ira Levin.

    My confidence in July and September is high.

    Good guesses. None of these interest me at all. So win for both of us.

    I'm not, but I'm sure as heck gonna from now on. That sounds amazing!

    I'm not a huge Vonnegut fan, but I do like 'Slaughterhouse-five' quite a bit, and the design and production details are really nice, so I'll look to pick this up.

    That is a great analogy.
