New Year, New Books!
Welcome to the new year and the new year of books!! Some of our favorite authors have new books coming out in January - be the first to get some of these exciting reads.
Geraldine Brooks has awed us with her incredible novels including The Year of Wonders and the Pulitzer Prize Winner March. Her latest novel People of the Book follows a rare Hebrew manuscript over five centuries of history. This saga begins in Australia in 1996 and travels all the way back to 1480 Seville. This is sure to be a thrilling well-written page turner!
Michael Pollan is back examining America's eating habits and food manufacturing. From the author of the hugely popular The Omnivore's Dilemma comes a new book In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto. The author's motto is 'to eat simply is to eat healthy.' Those who have made an "eat right" New Year's resolution might want to check this out.
For those Stephanie Plum fans who can't wait for Janet Evanovich's summer release of the 14th adventure comes Plum Lucky. A between the numbers mystery, Stephanie is up to her usual exploits with the same lovable sidekicks including Grandma Mazur and Lulu. This book will be released on January 8.
And last but certainly not least John Grisham has a new book titled The Appeal that is coming out on January 29. This is Grisham's first legal thriller in three years and has all the classic ingredients including dirty politics, bribery, and deceit!!
Enjoy, keep reading, and let me know what books are keeping you up these long winter nights!!
