Spring Ahead....Please Let Spring Be Ahead!
|
|
Sleuthfest, the writer's conference that I attended last weekend, was wonderful. As I mentioned last week Lee Child was being honored. I admire Lee for his endless support of other authors. Whenever we are at conferences he is at the panels, introducing authors to others, talking about their work and hanging out. I mentioned this to him last week and he responded like this: "I'm a fan of the genre as much as an author." Nice to hear that, isn't it? While in Florida James O. Born was kind enough to take me to a shooting gallery and taught me how to fire a gun. You can read about this experience and how my life parallels that of Assistant District Attorney Alex Cooper in Linda Fairstein's upcoming thriller KILLER HEAT by reading my blog called "Put Down the Knitting Needles; Pick Up the Gun."
I wish I was in Denver this weekend for the Left Coast Crime conference where Stephen White is being honored. I had been a fan of Stephen's work for many years before we sat down and chatted a few years ago at the Virginia Festival of the Book about a manuscript for a book he had just completed called KILL ME. I read it and loved it. Over the years it has been great fun sharing his books with readers along with interviews where he speaks right to the heart of his work. We are bringing you just such an interview this week of his new book, DEAD TIME. Joe Hartlaub gives it an unabashed rave. It's lovely connecting like this with authors we love, even just once a year. The days between disappear as we check back with them in interviews and meet up with their ongoing characters in their latest books. Oh, another reason to want to be in Denver. I miss skiing. I hear the snow in the west has been amazing this year --- and I sure could use a run down some of my favorite trails. Years ago I had a wall in my office behind me when I worked at the magazine that was papered with ski trail maps. I often would turn and face that wall and escape plotting routes down my favorite trails. In the span of a few seconds I would be from the top to the bottom of Vail feeling the wind --- and the sun --- on my face. I have not skied in years, but March always brings these memories bubbling back to the surface. Sometimes we meet people in books and they stay in our heads. We want to know what happens to them and think about them. I had this with HOPE'S BOY by Andrew Bridge. I read this book in October, and as I closed it I wanted to grab coffee with Bridge to talk to him more about where he is now. His story had me pondering the foster care system as I had not done in the past. I was happy to see that our reviewer, Barbara Bamberger Scott, felt the same way. I have this rather unfortunate habit of starting books that I want to finish that sit winking at me from my book pile screaming for me to pick them back up. THE MONSTERS OF TEMPLETON by Lauren Groff is one of these books. I began this when we were on Christmas vacation, and as I read Norah Piehl's review I thought, this is going to be next up on my list! A few years ago I met Jodi Picoult at a luncheon where she walked us through her careful research for her books, which was impressive. Thus it's a pleasure to share with you an interview with her this week, as well as our review of CHANGE OF HEART by Kate Ayers. Our newest featured author is Linda Francis Lee, whose novel, THE EX-DEBUTANTE, tells the smart and funny story of a former Texas debutante who finds herself unwillingly called back to the life she left behind. I am enjoying this one. We have 10 copies of THE EX-DEBUTANTE to give away to readers who would like to preview the book and comment about it. If you are interested, please fill out this form by Friday, March 14th. Our advance readers enjoyed NOTORIOUS by Michele Martinez, a riveting thriller about a Manhattan District Attorney who finds herself involved in a very deadly case. You may read their comments here. Our advance readers also enjoyed THE INVISIBLE by Andrew Britton, a new installment to the international adventures of Ryan Kealey. Click here to read their comments. Lawrence Goldstone, author of THE ANATOMY OF DECEPTION, and Will Lavender, author of OBEDIENCE, have responded to our advance readers’ questions. Click here to read Goldstone’s responses, and check out Lavender’s responses here. Our special contest for FORGIVE ME by Amanda Eyre Ward has ended. You may view our winners here. Thank you to everyone who participated! A reminder to move your clocks AHEAD this weekend, which means we lose an hour. This means you have to read more words per minute to make up for the time you are losing, or put the book under your pillow. Remember how we used to be told that worked? Have a great week. I am going to try to pack and unpack some more boxes around here since the "Purge the Attic Project" continues. We also got a new couch, so I am trying to find the perfect reading spot on it. This is an important mission, and it requires lots of time and attention! Carol Fitzgerald (Carol@bookreporter.com)

Bookreporter.com Talks to Stephen White, Author of DEAD TIME
|
|
Stephen White --- the author of such novels as DRY ICE, KILL ME, MISSING PERSONS and BLINDED --- recently published DEAD TIME, his 16th book in the bestselling Alan Gregory series. In this interview with Bookreporter.com's Joe Hartlaub, White discusses the evolving relationships between the series' protagonist and various recurring characters and explains the process by which he chooses the particular narrative style of each installment. He also describes his unconventional method (or lack thereof) of planning story arcs, expresses his surprise over the unexpected success of his books despite his two-decade career and ponders the ultimate end of Alan Gregory.
DEAD TIME by Stephen White (Thriller)
Colorado psychologist Alan Gregory’s ex-wife, Merideth, reappears, seeking help she feels only Alan can give. Suddenly he is pulled into a mystery that reaches back years to a camping trip at the Grand Canyon involving Merideth’s fiancé and five friends whose lives were changed forever when a young woman mysteriously vanished from the Canyon floor.

|
|
Jodi Picoult is the bestselling author of such novels as NINETEEN MINUTES, MY SISTER'S KEEPER, VANISHING ACTS and THE TENTH CIRCLE. Her latest work of fiction, CHANGE OF HEART, delves into the polemical issue of the death penalty and how one's perspective on the matter is often dependent upon religious beliefs. In this interview, Picoult discusses how she became fascinated with the subject and recalls some of the eye-opening events she experienced while researching. She also sheds light on Gospel history, ruminates on the difficulty of discussing religion today and shares details of her next novel, HANDLE WITH CARE.
CHANGE OF HEART by Jodi Picoult (Fiction)
Acclaimed New York Times bestselling author Jodi Picoult tackles the thorny subject of the death penalty in her newest book featuring a young girl in need of a heart, a prisoner with an imminent execution date, a priest with a crisis of faith and an ACLU lawyer drawing them all together.

Books into Movies for March
|
|
In case you’re in the mood for something with a little more substance than Hollywood blockbusters featuring superhero spoofs or scantily dressed people on the run from woolly mammoths and saber-toothed tigers, March’s Books into Movies feature offers a handful of literary alternatives for lovers of drama, independent films and even whimsical fairy tales. From the flashy 21 --- based on the true events of how MIT math whizzes turned high rollers scammed Vegas casinos out of millions --- and the edgier Gus Van Sant-ified adaptation of Blake Nelson’s YA novel PARANOID PARK, to the star-studded big-screen version of Dr. Seuss’s beloved HORTON HEARS A WHO!, this month’s movies based on books promise to be intense and thought provoking, as well as lighthearted and uplifting.
Relationship woes abound this month with the release of Married Life --- an offbeat, dark dramedy about a man’s bumbling attempts to kill his wife in order to be with a younger woman --- as well as Snow Angels, an emotionally wrought examination of two established marriages that crumble as a new romance begins to blossom. Providing a much lighter perspective on matters of the heart is Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day, an adult Cinderella story based on the 1938 novel by Winifred Watson, in which a down-and-out nanny and her new boss help each other to straighten out their tangled love lives.

THE MONSTERS OF TEMPLETON by Lauren Groff (Fiction)
In her impressive and wonderfully accomplished debut, Lauren Groff skillfully re-imagines her hometown of Templeton, New York --- and the novels of James Fenimore Cooper --- in a quirky, ambitious portrait of a town's history and the woman who reclaims it. Reviewed by Norah Piehl.
AN INCOMPLETE REVENGE: A Maisie Dobbs Novel by Jacqueline Winspear (Mystery)
Jacqueline Winspear's fifth mystery starring psychologist and investigator Maisie Dobbs finds our heroine entering a new phase of her life while still probing the scars left in so many lives by the past. In AN INCOMPLETE REVENGE Maisie delves into a strange series of crimes in a small rural community. Reviewed by Norah Piehl.
THE SERPENT'S TALE by Ariana Franklin (Historical Mystery)
The second novel to feature Dr. Adelia Aguilar (following MISTRESS OF THE ART OF DEATH) is full of medieval intrigue as she is called on by King Henry II to solve the murder of his mistress. Ariana Franklin's tale gives the genre of historical fiction a new twist by crossing it with forensic science and mystery, resulting in a unique set of characters and an enjoyable read. Reviewed by Sarah Rachel Egelman.
CITY OF THE SUN by David Levien (Thriller)
Twelve-year-old Jamie Gabriel gets on his bike before dawn to deliver newspapers in his suburban Indianapolis neighborhood and vanishes without a trace. Fourteen months later, Paul and Carol are on the verge of abandoning all hope. Crushed by frustrating dead ends and exhausted by a police force that cannot (or will not) locate their son, the Gabriels finally find a ray of hope: the name of an elusive private investigator who may represent their last chance. Reviewed by Joe Hartlaub.
RIDING TOWARD EVERYWHERE by William T. Vollmann (Memoir/Travel)
In his latest work, noted novelist, journalist and occasional rail rider William T. Vollmann delivers a portrait of the life of trainhopping that is both lyrical and unsettling. Mixing travelogue, memoir and social commentary, RIDING TOWARD EVERYWHERE is a vivid and original look at an obscure corner of contemporary America. Reviewed by Harvey Freedenberg.
STALKED by Brian Freeman (Thriller)
Lieutenant Jonathan Stride knows his former detective partner Maggie Bei is in trouble when she reports a deadly crime on a bitter winter night. She’s obviously hiding a terrible secret, and her silence only feeds suspicion. But Maggie isn’t the only one keeping secrets in Duluth. Reviewed by Joe Hartlaub.
STANDING STILL by Kelly Simmons (Psychological Suspense)
In STANDING STILL, journalist and suburban mom Claire Cooper must face her own emotional demons as she physically faces down the demons of her husband's unethical business. Kelly Simmons’s darkly psychological debut novel is a sober look at marriage and motherhood. Reviewed by Sarah Rachel Egelman.
