October New Book News!


The Affair by Lee Child is just out.  It’s set back in Reacher’s Army days and explores the reasons he left the service. Reserve it today!  (Did you know that there’s a Reacher movie in the works, with Tom Cruise as the star? Do you think Cruise can pull it off?)
Nicholas Sparks has a new book out this month!  The Best of Me tells the story of two star-crossed high school sweethearts who meet again after 25 years. Nobody does romance like Sparks!  Get your name on the reserve list today!
If you’re a Beverly Lewis fan, the wait is over!  The Mercy, the third book in “The Rose” trilogy is out now! Call or stop by the library to get your name on the reserve list!
John Sandford is famous for the Lucas Davenport  “Prey” books, but some fans are even fonder of his new series starring Virgil Flowers. Shock Wave is the new book out in October and early reviews say this is one of his best!
Janet Evanovich has a new Stephanie Plum adventure due out in November.  It’s called Explosive Eighteen.   You can put it on reserve now! The movie version of One for the Money starring Katherine Heigl as Stephanie will be in theaters in January.
Dexter fans will definitely want to get on the list for Jeff Lindsay’s latest entry, Double Dexter.  Dexter isn’t pleased to find that someone is copying his methods of eliminating other serial killers-- and we all know what happens when Dexter isn’t happy….
Vince Flynn fans, it looks as Kill Shot is going to be delayed until February, 2012. Mr. Flynn has been ill but according to his website, he hopes to back writing as soon as his treatments are finished.  The plot sounds intriguing:  Mitch Rapp is hunting a target in France when the tables are turned and he becomes the hunted.  
Just in time for Halloween, F. Paul Wilson comes out with the last of the Repairman Jack novels, The Dark at the End.  What, you don’t know Jack? He’s just one of the best supernatural characters to come along in the past decade or so!  If you’re intrigued, start no earlier than Bloodline.
Terry Prachett fans, rejoice! There’s a new Discworld book out, Snuff.  The master of satiric fantasy remains at the top of his game.  Yep, Snuff  is up to snuff!

John Grisham has a new book out in October!  The title is The Litigators, and the story revolves around two all but down and out attorneys who suddenly acquire a new associate and maybe a case that will net them millions.  Several reviewers have said this one has more humor than some of Grisham's books and it seems like the author is really having fun.  When authors have fun, readers usually do too!
If you love British historical fiction, then you know the name Sharon Kay Penman.  After a long hiatus, Penman has a new book out:  Lionheart, about Richard I.  It’s full of the same detail and romance Penman fans have come to expect!
New York to Dallas is the latest installment in J.D. Robb’s very popular “In Death” series.  A violent pedophile has escaped prison, and Eve is determined to track him down.  The trail leads her back to Dallas and to face some of the ghosts from her past.
