April 2007

April's roundup of New in Paperback fiction titles includes WATER FOR ELEPHANTS, Sara Gruen's evocative and intriguing tale of the frenzied, lawless and cruelly beautiful world of the Depression-era traveling circus; AT RISK, a stand-alone thriller from Patricia Cornwell that introduces readers to a hard-charging district attorney who hopes that her new crime initiative will lead to a successful run for governor of Massachusetts; Harlan Coben's PROMISE ME, in which entertainment agent Myron Bolitar must become a hero again as he desperately attempts to fulfill a well-intentioned promise gone nightmarishly wrong; THE GIRLS by Lori Lansens, a compelling character study of two sisters who are best friends, confidantes and conjoined twins; and ANYBODY OUT THERE?, a gut-wrenching account of grief and healing that still delivers a measure of Marian Keyes's sassy wit and family humor.

Among our nonfiction highlights are BLINK: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking, in which Malcolm Gladwell shows how all of us can become better decision makers --- in our homes, in our offices and in everyday life; MOCKINGBIRD, Charles J. Shields's enlightening and well-researched biography of TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD author Harper Lee; ON BECOMING FEARLESS by Arianna Huffington, who explores the roadblocks that prevent women from achieving their personal and professional potential; and THE GOOD GOOD PIG, Sy Montgomery's amusing and poignant story of a pig named Christopher Hogwood who started life small but influenced the world around him in a big way.
