Notable New Releases for the Week of May 5, 2014

This week in fiction, The Hours author Michael Cunningham is back with a new book, as are Peter Heller and Larry McMurty. In mystery John Sandford releases the twenty-forth Lucas Davenport book, and there are series additions from Ace Atkins and Victoria Thompson, to name a few. In sci-fi and fantasy Kristen Britain, Douglas Hulick, and Kimberly Frost all have new novels, plus Charlaine Harris debuts a new trilogy. In romance there’s new work from Kresley Cole, Maya Banks, Beth Kerry, and Tara Sivec. Meanwhile in young adult there’s new work from Jamie McGuire, Morgan Matson, and Emmy Laybourne, among others. In new adult there are new novels from Abbi Glines, J.S. Cooper, Lynetta Halat, and more. And in nonfiction there are several buzzed-about memoirs – high on my wishlist is #GIRLBOSS by NastyGal-founder Sophia Amoruso. And last but not least, new to paperback are Lois Lowry’s Son, Adelle Waldman’s The Love Affairs of Nathaniel P., Hanya Yanagihara’s The People in the Trees, and many more. Enjoy!
