Dear Readers,
Today is the spring eqinox! Daffodils are in bloom,
the first robins of the season have arrived, and a bunch of exciting
new books are ready to burst forth. In keeping with the time of year,
returns and rebirths are a recurring theme this month. We have a long
lost novel by Gabriel Garcia Marquez, a re-examination of Huck
Finn by Percival Everett, and an inquiry into The Book of Genesis
by Marilynne Robinson. Beloved authors Tana French, James Patterson,
and Lisa Scottoline return with new thrillers and established
literary authors Christina Henriquez and Tea Obreht have new
offerings this spring.
Please note: Items released later in the
month may not be in the catalog yet. Check the catalog closer to the release date to place a hold on those
titles.
