LANDLINE is #1!!!
You love her, you really, really love her! Rainbow Rowell, that is—your votes have made LANDLINE the #1 LibraryReads pick for July 2014! THANK YOU!!!
We can't imagine there are many of you who haven't read Rowell's tale of a TV writer's floundering marriage and the chance she has to fix it or prevent it from happening thanks to a certain magic phone. But if you haven't, what are you waiting for?!
Not only is it #1, LANDLINE is a July Indie Next pick and is topping Summer Must-Read lists from Entertainment Weekly to USA Today.
So many of you loved it, too!

June is Audiobook Month!
Great news for all you audiophiles: June is Audiobook Month! We can't think of a better way to kick it off than by celebrating Billy Crystal's Audie Award wins, including Audiobook of the Year, for STILL FOOLIN' 'EM!
Crystal also won in the Humor and Narration by the Author categories, and the news has already received major national coverage in The New York Times, Entertainment Weekly, and The Washington Post.
The audiobook for REVIVER by Seth Patrick, narrated by Ari Flakos also won an Audie Award in the Paranormal category.
Want more great summer listening for all those long road trips? The Los Angeles Times summer reading preview recommends Rainbow Rowell's LANDLINE, narrated by Rebecca Lowman.
John Waters read the audiobook for CARSICK, a hilarious recounting of how he hitchhiked from Baltimore to San Francisco in 2012 told in three novellas—good rides, bad rides, and the real ride. Esquire.com ran a fabulous piece, and both the Sacramento Bee and the Los Angeles Times gave it nice mentions.
