Hi everyone. I'm rincey and i am one of the contributing editors over at book riot.
I'm back to do another new release tuesday video and today i am talking
about books that come out on Tuesday, April 3rd. The first book that I have for
you guys is probably the literary fiction release of the spring and that
is the female persuasion by Meg Wolitzer. Greer is a shy college freshman
when she meets a woman who she thinks will change her life. Faith Frank
dazzlingly persuasive at the age of 63 has been a central pillar of the women's
movement for decades. Upon hearing Faith speak for the first
time, Greer who is extremely in love with her boyfriend but still has some strong
feelings of ambition, feels her inner world light up. And then, astonishingly,
Faith invites Greer to make something out of her sense of purpose.
Leading Greer down the most exciting path of her life as it winds towards and
away from her meant to be a love story with her boyfriend and the future that
she's always imagined. So like I said, this is sort of like the buzziest
literary fiction book coming out this spring. It's getting rave reviews from a
bunch of different places and people. I'm sure that if you follow like other book
bloggers and people who read a lot of literary fiction, you've already heard
about this one. So if you are a fan of Meg Wolitzer or you are just looking to
check out what everyone is talking about, then you can go ahead and pick up in the
female persuasion. Next I have the recovering: intoxication and its
aftermath by Leslie Jamison. Leslie Jamison is probably best well-known of
for her nonfiction book of the empathy exams which came out a couple of years
ago and a lot of people really really enjoyed. And in this one, this is another
nonfiction book that blends sort of that memoir, cultural history, reporting and
all of that into one book where Leslie Jamison talks about addictions and recovery.
In this book, Leslie Jamison sort of explores the stories that we
tell around addiction, both her own as well as others. And it talks about what
we want those stories to do as well as what to do when they fail us. So she
looks at the sort of larger history around addiction and recovery as well as
the complications that come into play when you look at things like race and
class, especially when you look at how people are
labeled as addicts and criminal as opposed to just being ill. She also looks
at the way that different sort of literary writers and artists have had
this sort of lives that are defined by and shaped by their addiction.
People like Billie Holiday and Raymond Carver and David Foster Wallace. So if you were
a fan of the empathy exams or just in general are interested in this topic of
looking at how we talk about things like addiction and recovery, then you can pick
up the recovering: intoxication and its aftermath.
Next I have a necessary evil by a beer Mukherjee. This is the second book in the
Sam Wyndham historical mystery series. The first book was a necessary man which
I believe came out last year. These stories take place in 1920s India and
you are following Captain Wyndham and Sergeant Banerjee of the Calcutta police
force. In this story, the heir to the throne is assassinated right in front of
Captain Wyndham and Sergeant Banerjee. And while they are looking into this
mystery, they find out that Prince Adhir, who is the one who is assassinated, had
very like modernist views on the world, which may have upset more religious
elements of the country. So you follow Captain Wyndham and Sergeant Banerjee as
they look to unravel the truths behind this assassination. And they become
entangled in a dangerous world where those in power live by their own rules.
So this is a really great historical mystery series. I read the first one last
year and I'm really looking forward to picking up this one as well. So if you
are looking for some historical mysteries that take place outside of
like the United States and European countries, then you should definitely
pick up a necessary evil by Amir Mukherjee.
Next I have America is not the heart by Elaine Castillo. When Hero DeVera arrives
in America, haunted by the political upheaval happening in the Philippines as
well as disavowed about her parents, she's already on her third life of her
lifetime. Her uncle gives her a fresh start in the Bay Area and doesn't ask
any questions about her past. His younger wife knows about the might and secrecy
of the DeVera family in order to keep her head down. But their daughter, the
first American born in their family, can't resist asking hero
about her damaged hands. So this book is being described as a soulful debut about
three generations of women in this family struggling to
balance the promise of the American Dream and the unshakeable grip of
history. So if that sounds like something that is of interest to you, then you
should pick up America is not the heart. Next up I have a debut young adult book
and that is dread nation by Justina Ireland. This is a zombie book that takes
place during the United States Civil War. Jane McKean was born two days before the
dead began walking to the battlefields of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania,
derailing the war between states and changing the nation forever. In this new
America, safety for all depends on the work of a few. And laws like the Native
and Negro Education Act requires certain children to attend schools to learn how
to take down the undead. But there are also opportunities. Jane is studying to
become an attendant trained in both weaponry and etiquette in order to
protect the well-to-do. It's a chance for a better life for Negro girls like Jane.
However that's not the life that Jane wants. Almost finished with her education,
Jane is set on returning to her Kentucky home and doesn't pay much mind to the
politics of eastern cities with their talk of returning America to the glory
days before the dead rose. But when family is around Baltimore County begin
to go missing, Jane is caught in the middle of a conspiracy, one that finds
her in a desperate fight for her life against some powerful enemies. So this is
a young adult book that is getting so much buzz. I feel like I know so many
people who have already read this one and absolutely adored it. It sounds like
a really interesting twist on historical fiction and I definitely plan on picking
this one up. And again that one is called dread nation. And holy cow the sun just
came out. Alright and the final book at bed I have for you guys is too close to
breathe by Olivia Kernan or Kiernan. In a quiet Dublin suburb, Eleanor Costello is
found hanging from a rope. Detective Chief Superintendent
Frankie Shenan would like nothing more than to just declare this a suicide.
Four months ago, Frankie's pursuit of a killer almost ended her life and she isn't
really keen on investigating another homicide. But the autopsy report comes
back with some suspicious findings that weren't included on the medical
examination. And Eleanor's husband Peter is completely unreachable. A search of
the couple's home reveals only two signs of personality:
a much-loved book on art and a laptop with access to the dark web. So this book
sounds like a really sort of dark, atmospheric, almost domestic suspense
thriller book. It's giving me a little bit of Tana French vibes. I'm sure it's
not quite at Tana French level but I think the whole Dublin suburb, darkness,
complex character thing is really just setting that off for me. So if that
sounds like something that is your jam, then you can pick up too close too breathe.
So those are all of the books that I have for you guys this week. Definitely
leave a comment down below letting me know if you're interested in any of
these books or if there is another book coming out this week that you are really
excited about that I did not mention. Otherwise I will see you guys again next
Tuesday with another new release video. Bye.
