FANTASTIC NEWS! Macmillan has TWO terrific books on the June 2015 LibraryReads list!
Coming in at #3 is THE BOOK OF SPECULATION by Erika Swyler
In Swyler’s hand-illustrated and “whimsically dark debut” (Publishers Weekly), a recently unemployed librarian receives a mysterious book that holds the key to a curse that has haunted his family of traveling circus performers for generations. It’s a Summer 2015 Barnes & Noble Discover Great New Writers Selection! “Fans of historical novels, especially titles with circus themes or touched with a hint of the supernatural such as Erin Morgenstern’s The Night Circus, Katharine Dunn’s Geek Love, or Katharine Howe’s The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane, won’t want to leave this festival.” — Library Journal

Landing at #8 is THE PRECIPICE by Paul Doiron
In the riveting new novel from Edgar finalist Doiron, Mike Bowditch joins a desperate search for two missing hikers as Maine wildlife officials deal with a frightening rash of coyote attacks. It’s received two starred reviews, including this rave from Booklist: “This is one of the finest entries in a uniformly strong series that has quietly taken its place among the very best outdoors-based crime dramas.”
@MacmillanLib @pauldoiron Loved THE PRECIPICE! Fast-paced but worth slowing down to enjoy the fiercely beautiful landscape.
