This is the first of a trilogy that follows two outcast classmates who befriend each other and end up raising a daughter under unusual circumstances. Truths surface that were meant to be buried forever. This book is part mystery, love story and family drama. It is a fast read, and I cannot wait for the sequels.

Book Review: A Good Life by Virginie Grimaldi

This work of historical fiction is a family portrait  that spans generations and the ocean. Working from family letters she discovered as a college student, Lauren Fox crafted Send for Me – a heartbreaking portrait of three generations of mothers and daughters and a poignant look at the meanings of sacrifice and love.

RFM Bookshelf: “Send for Me” by Lauren Fox

The cover of Julie Myerson’s newest release seems to luxuriate in its contradictions. The title Nonfiction, rendered in a jumbo font, dominates the top margin while the only slightly smaller A Novel anchors the bottom. The book, first published in the UK in 2022 and released to American audiences in January of this year by Tin House, is shelved with fiction as per the publisher’s Library of Congress Cataloging data, and indeed the front matter includes a short statement that attests to the work’s fictionality. And yet that title demands speculation—as does the way the novel’s circumstances so closely mimic territory Myerson covered in her 2009 memoir The Lost Child. That book documented the author’s experience parenting her son as he suffered from drug addiction; this one follows a fictional mother as she parents an addict daughter. Writers like Jo Ann Beard, Amy Hempel, and Sheila Heti have long challenged the boundaries between fiction and nonfiction with their work. It is, after all, a brave new nonbinary world, and narrative has as much to gain from spectrums as the rest of us. It’s also fair to say that there’s nothing more tantalizing to readers than a whiff of truth.

Welcome to Today in Books, where we report on literary headlines at the intersection of politics, culture, media, and more. You’re expecting this to be a story about the latest TikTok romantasy hit, aren’t you? The clock app may be hogging headlines with stories about dragon riders who do it, but it’s Freida McFadden’s thrillers that are dominating bestseller lists. McFadden, a physician who writes under a pseudonym to protect her relationship with her patients, self-published for a decade before signing a deal with Sourcebooks’s Poisoned Pen Press. Her 23 (!) books have sold more than 6 million copies, making her the fastest-selling thriller writer in the U.S., outpacing heavy hitters James Patterson, David Baldacci, and John Grisham, who all show up beneath her on current sales charts. The New York Times‘s Alexandra Alter details McFadden’s rise in a new profile, which also hints at fascinating tidbits about Sourcebooks’s strategy. Now, my kingdom for a piece about the enduring appeal of the self-pub-to-traditional-deal pipeline.
