Paula Hawkins, author of The Girl on the Train

Rachel takes the same commuter train every morning. Every day she rattles down the track, flashes past a stretch of cozy suburban homes, and stops at the signal that allows her to daily watch the same couple breakfasting on their deck. She’s even started to feel like she knows them. Their life --- as she sees it --- is perfect. Not unlike the life she recently lost. And then she sees something shocking. It’s only a minute until the train moves on, but it’s enough. Now everything has changed.

The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins

January 2015

I have been “on board the praise train” for THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN by Paula Hawkins since I first started reading it. I clearly remember picking it up late one Thursday night, getting about 10 pages in and forcing myself to stop. I knew that if I kept reading, there was no way I was going to be able to put it down, and I had a huge day of my “Friday writing” scheduled for the next day. But as SOON as I typed the last word that Friday, I dashed for it to start reading and did not stop until I was done. (I now understand what a child feels like being told to stop playing a video game to do homework!)

Week of July 11, 2016

Paperback releases for the week of July 11th include THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN by Paula Hawkins, the debut psychological thriller that will forever change the way you look at other people's lives (and is soon to be a major motion picture starring Emily Blunt); TWO YEARS EIGHT MONTHS AND TWENTY-EIGHT NIGHTS, another spellbinding work of fiction from Salman Rushdie that blends history, mythology and a timeless love story; and HOW TO BE A GROWN-UP by Emma McLaughlin and Nicola Kraus, an irresistible comedy about a forty-something wife and mother thrust back into the workforce, where she finds herself at the mercy of a #BossHalfHerAge.
