Richard and Judy have revealed the 10 books to be reviewed on their eponymous Channel 4 show next year.

The couple's Book Club has been said to increase sales of the books they feature. This year's Book Club will kick off on the 18 January with The History of Love by Nicola Krauss.

The culmination of the club is a vote for 'Best Read', which is part of the British Book Awards. Last year's winner was Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell. A survey by C4 showed that 1.8m people had purchased or read abook they otherwise would not have, were it not for the show's book club.

The shortlist:

The History of Love by Nicole Krauss
Labyrinth by Kate Mosse
The Farm by Richard Benson
The Conjuror's Bird by Martin Davis
Arthur & George by Julian Barnes
The Lost Art of Keeping Secrets by Eva Rice
Moondust by Andrew Smith
March by Geraldine Brooks
Empress Orchid by Anchee Min
The Lincoln Lawyer by Michael Connelly

Richard and Judy said: "We love the book club and can't wait to get reading as this year's list looks better than ever."
