In this newsletter, you will find books releasing the weeks of February 17th and February 24th that we think will be of interest to Bookreporter.com readers, along with Bonus News, where we call out a contest, feature or review that we want to let you know about so you have it on your radar.

This week, we are calling attention to our Favorite Monthly Lists & Picks feature for February, which includes Indie Next, LibraryReads, the Barnes & Noble Book Club, the Reese Witherspoon x Hello Sunshine Book Club, the Jenna Bush Hager "Read with Jenna" Today Show Book Club, and more.

We also are spotlighting Carol Fitzgerald's "Bookreporter Talks To" interview with Allison Pataki, whose new historical novel, THE QUEEN'S FORTUNE: A Novel of Desiree, Napoleon, and the Dynasty That Outlasted the Empire, is now in stores and will be a Bets On pick. In addition to talking in-depth about the book, Allison and Carol discuss women at the forefront of history, Allison's research in Paris, and the ways in which her personal life has affected her historical storytelling over the years. Click here to watch the interview and here to listen to the podcast.
