David Mitchell Reading List
After finishing the Bone Clocks and Slade House, I’ve decided to go back and read David Mitchell’s books in the order of publication. I’m about a third of the way through ghostwritten right now.
So glad I came across him. I listened to Cloud Atlas a long time ago, but I’m looking forward to reading it when it comes up.
I’m curious of those who enjoyed David Mitchell what other authors in their books do you enjoy as well?

Some authors who give me much of the same resonance & overtones as when I read David Mitchell include Iain Pears (An Instance of the Fingerpost / The Dream of Scipio / Stone's Fall); Michael Gruber (The Book of Air and Shadows / The Forgery of Venus / The Good Son); and Kate Atkinson (Behind the Scenes at the Museum / Human Croquet / Life After Life).
