(More!) New Leisure Books


Just a quick note to tell you about the newest additions to our current and popular leisure reading collection. Some big names in this batch, from all over the spectrum. We’ve got Bill Bryson’s new pop-history book about the summer of 1927, Malcolm Gladwell’s new pop-sociology book about underdogs, the much-talked-about new biography of JD Salinger, “Robert Galbraith’s” debut crime novel (which was actually written by JK Rowling, shhhh), a self-help book by Ron Swanson’s real-life counterpart, a WWII survival story by Laura Hillenbrand (she of Seabiscuit fame), and the new novel from Pulitzer Prize-winning author, Jhumpa Lahiri…among many others.
 


 If you'd like to peruse the new titles from the comfort of your office chair, they’ve already been added to our Goodreads page, which you can access by clicking the image above.

Have a great weekend, and don’t forget: we love requests!
