Also, we are sharing Carol's latest "Bookreporter Talks To" interview with Sadeqa Johnson, whose new novel, YELLOW WIFE, will be a Bookreporter.com Bets On pick. This harrowing story follows an enslaved woman who is forced to barter love and freedom while living in the most infamous slave jail in Virginia. Sadeqa talked to Carol about her inspiration for writing YELLOW WIFE, how she tackled the serious topics that are addressed here, the relationship that her children have with the novel, and how working with J. K. Rowling as her publicist helped pave the way for her career as an author. Click here to watch the video and here to listen to the podcast.

Finally, we are spotlighting THE SURVIVORS, which is now in stores. Coming home dredges up deeply buried secrets in this thrilling mystery by New York Times bestselling author Jane Harper, whose previous novels are THE DRY, FORCE OF NATURE and THE LOST MAN.

There must be a limit to the mistakes one person can make, and when I get to the end of them, then I'll be through with them. That's a very comforting thought.
