I haven't read any, but do have 3 of them queued up on my Kindle. Better get reading.
I've read a couple - Nest, Golden Boys and The Eye of the Sheep. All strong books. I've also seen a lot of good reviews for This House of Grief and The Golden Age.

I would love The Eye of the Sheep and Nest to come equal first :)
i heard an interview of Ceridwen Dovey about her book:Only the Animals|20681123] I found it very fascinating! I often wonder how animals view life as affected by the human condition.

Ceridwen Dovey Only the Animals
I've read 4: Foreign Soil, The Eye of the Sheep, Golden Boys and Nest. All 4 stars except for Nest which was 2.I have The Strays on my TBR.
Did I see somewhere that the shortlist is out today? I finished Foreign Soil last night - will review when i get home later. Gave me a lot to think about.
