Space Oddities: The Mysterious Anomalies Challenging Our Understanding of the Universe
Geared toward curious lay readers willing to be challenged with mind-bending scientific puzzles. It helps to have some familiarity with physics, but this book is accessible with clear explanations, a sprinkling of humor, and a dash of poetry. The combination makes for an engaging follow-up to Cliff’s previous book, How To Make an Apple Pie from Scratch.
James
Everett (English, Univ. of Southern California), author of The Trees and Erasure, has written an even richer and penetrating Adventures than Twain’s already rich masterpiece. It will fly off library shelves.

The Adversary
Using the vocabulary of the time, Crummey (The Innocents) tells an unhappy but compelling story of division and strife caused by personal vendettas and animosity. A good pick for readers of historical fiction in which family relations and tragedy play key roles.
More: A Memoir of Open Marriage
An honest look at how an open marriage can work, an excellent read for people interested in self-discovery or ethical non-monogamy. Recommended for readers of Dossie Easton and Janet Hardy’s The Ethical Slut and Eve Rickert and Franklin Veaux’s More Than Two.
PREMIUM
The Princess of Las Vegas
While this novel doesn’t quite deliver much suspense as might be expected, Crissy and Betsy are interesting enough to keep readers engaged. Bohjalian (The Lioness) has written numerous best-sellers, so purchase accordingly to meet demand.

Sonic Life
Moore’s compelling (if lengthy) memoir covers an era in rock music that is just beginning to get its due.
PREMIUM
Do Tell
Fans of stories about old Hollywood may enjoy this novel, but it isn’t likely to attract new readers to the subject. Purchase for libraries with strong readership in books about Hollywood in the 1940s.
