New and Notable for July
Paperbacks are definitely the “rage” this summer. We have many new titles in the store…here are just a few!
- REVOLUTIONARY CHARACTERS, by Gordon W. Wood
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize. The life of Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Franklin, Hamilton, Madison, and Paine is presented individually as well as collectively, but the thread that binds these portraits together is the idea of character as a lived reality. They were members of the first generation in history that was self-consciously self-made….men who understood the arc of lives, as of nations, as being one of moral progress. - SLEEPING WITH FEAR, by Kay Hooper (thriller/suspense)
- THE HUSBAND, by Dean Koontz (mystery)
- THE MAN FROM STONE CREEK, by Linda Lael Miller (historical romance)
- SUNRISE, by Karen Kingsbury (Christian romance)
NO! I DON’T WANT TO JOIN A BOOK CLUB, by Virginia Ironside….I know, this is a hardback…but it is receiving great reviews from our readers…guaranteed to make you laugh!
Another hardback book to savor during these hot summer days is:
LUNCHEON OF THE BOATING PARTY, by Susan Vreeland. Vreeland returns with a vivid exploration of one of the most beloved paintings in the world…the instantly recognizable Renoir masterpiece.
Strong sellers still include: Water for Elephants, The Kite Runner, Memory Keeper’s Daughter, and Beach Music.
