Shelf Awareness for Readers, our weekly consumer-facing publication featuring adult and children's book reviews, author interviews, backlist recommendations, and fun news items, is being published today. Starred review highlights include Rules for Ghosting by Shelly Jay Shore, a story of queer healing and "the literary manifestation of an embrace that makes you feel safe enough to break down"; as well as Amy Reading's The World She Edited, a biography of early New Yorker editor Katherine S. White. Also, the "creative and versatile" artist Jen Wang offers up Ash's Cabin, a graphic novel that follows "a young adult who seeks self, ancestry, and home in the California wilderness." In The Writer's Life, the mysterious Korean author Djuna lifts the veil ever so slightly to reveal the literary influences of their long career, up to their most recent collection of stories, Everything Good Dies Here. Plus, rediscover the late historical mystery and romance novelist Victoria Thompson.
Today's issue of Shelf Awareness for Readers is going to 635,000 customers of more than 250 independent bookstores. Stores interested in learning more can contact our partnership program team via e-mail. To see today's issue, click here.
