If you come in you will notice more changes. We are taking some of the paperbacks that are part of a series and placing them on the main shelves next to the rest of the books in the series. We have a new DVD spinner so the paperbacks have moved into the old metal spinner the DVDs and VHS tapes have occupied. We kept a small collection of VHS tapes which are on a bookshelf by the window. If you have trouble finding things, be sure to ask—we want you to find what you are looking for.
Check the new book shelves when you are in. Here are a few new titles you may find interesting.
Exit Music by Ian Rankin. It's late in the fall in Edinburgh and late in the career of Detective Inspector John Rebus. As he is simply trying to tie up some loose ends before his retirement, a new case lands on his desk: a dissident Russian poet has been murdered in what looks like a mugging gone wrong. Rebus discovers that an elite delegation of Russian businessmen is in town, looking to expand its interests. And as Rebus's investigation gains ground, someone brutally assaults a local gangster with whom he has a long history.
American Wife by Curtis Sittenfeld. Sittenfeld tracks the life of bookish, naïve Alice Lindgren and the trajectory that lands her in the White House as first lady. Charlie Blackwell, her boyishly charming rake of a husband, whose background of Ivy League privilege, penchant for booze and partying, contempt for the news and habit of making flubs when speaking off the cuff, bears more than a passing resemblance to the current president.
Hot Mahogany by Stuart Woods. One night at Elaine’s, Stone Barrington meets Barton Cabot, older brother of his sometime ally, CIA boss Lance Cabot. Barton’s career in army intelligence is even more top secret than his brother’s, but he’s suffering from amnesia following a random act of violence. Amnesia is a dangerous thing in a man whose memory is chockfull of state secrets, so Lance hires Stone to watch Barton’s back.
