THE NIX: A Novel
A hilarious and deeply touching debut novel about a son, the mother who left him as a child, and
how his search to uncover the secrets of her life leads him to reclaim his own. The writing is
amazing, it reminded me of when I first read The World According to Garp. And the book has a
six-page sentence . . . how could you not check it out?

Elena Ferrante
FRANTUMAGLIA: An Author’s Journey
Through Letters, Interviews,
and Occasional Writings
If you are one of the people
completely obsessed with
the Neapolitan series like I
am, then you know how
significant it is to find out
more about the reclusive writer of these
amazing stories of life, politics, heartbreak,
and female friendship. In this collection, Elena Ferrante addresses
many subjects, such as; her choice to remain anonymous, her literary
inspirations, Italian politics and culture, and the role of the writer (and
the publisher) in modern society. Ferrante’s voice is ever the same;direct, penetrating, acute, inspiring and intimate.

THE GIRL
BEFORE: A Novel
First there was Gone Girl.
Then there was The Girl
on the Train. Now, there’s
The Girl Before. Jane
Cavendish is looking for a
new beginning. One Fol-
gate Street seems to be the answer to her
prayers. The home is sleek and minimalist,
and is wired to anticipate the occupant’s needs. And, she finds herself
drawn to the sexy, confident architect and owner. Until she learns
about the previous tenant: Emma Matthews. This is a smart, psycho-
logical thriller that spins one woman’s seemingly good fortune, and
another woman’s mysterious fate. Enjoy the ride!

DARK MATTER:
A Novel
Technically the top staff
pick for our ENTIRE
department, this is a
brilliantly mind-bending
science-fiction thriller in
which an ordinary man
is kidnapped, knocked unconscious—and
awakens in a world inexplicably different from
the reality he thought he knew. Perfect for book clubs with its thought-
provoking theme of what happens when we make one choice overanother. And my favorite part was the heart wrenching struggle of our
everyman hero, Jason, to return to his beloved wife and son. From the
author of the bestselling Wayward Pines trilogy, this will be one of the
most buzzed about books of the season!
