Skipping a Beat by Sarah Pekkanen came from Jessica at BookSparks PR.
When her husband has a heart attack and comes back as a different person, Julia has to decide if she wants this newer, kinder, gentler man who makes her face the realities of their pre-heart attack life together. Intriguing, no?
Chocolate and Vicodin by Jennette Fulda came from Gallery Books.
I am a migraine sufferer myself so I can't imagine the horror of a headache that lasts literally years but this account of just that makes me incredibly curious.
The Hottest Dishes of the Tartar Cuisine by Alina Bronsky came from Leigh at Regal Literary.
A fierce grandmother who has an alternate view of herself from everyone else who quails in front of her, her passive daughter, and prodigy of a granddaughter make up the characters in this lauded tale. It sounds fantastic.
