Coming Soon!

There are some books we are eagerly anticipating in the next few months...in addition to Mark Twain's autobiography (yes, really, he wrote it with the condition that it not be published until 100 years after his death. Volume 1 is coming out this November...)

         Autobiography of Mark Twain, Vol. 1

*************************************

Sara Gruen has a new one coming out September 7, Ape House.

         Ape House: A Novel         Water for Elephants: A Novel

A lab that studies bonobo ape communication is bombed, the apes are traumatized, one of the scientists is injured, and the story proceeds from there. We can hope that it will be as good as Water for Elephants.

*************************************

Terry McMillan has a new one coming out, also on September 7, Getting To Happy.

Getting to Happy                  Waiting to Exhale

In it, she follows the characters from Waiting to Exhale, 15 years later...

*************************************

David Sedaris has a new one coming out too...Squirrel Seeks Chipmunk, which will be released September 28.

Squirrel Seeks Chipmunk: A Modest Bestiary         When You Are Engulfed in Flames :        Me Talk Pretty One Day

I hope it will be as good as Me Talk Pretty One Day or When You Are Engulfed in Flames, two of my Sedaris favorites.


Stay tuned for more news about new releases!

And note that you can purchase any of these books by clicking on the book cover...so handy!
