Hello,
We have 35 new and notable books to bring to your attention this week; two thirds fiction, one-third nonfiction. As always, you'll find brief information on 10 below and full details on all in our
New This Week section.
Among them are two books reviewed by
BookBrowse members for our early reader program First Impressions:
Alfie and Me: What Owls Know, What Human Believe by Carl Safina; a charming, philosphical memoir of raising an orphaned screech owl, with starred reviews from
Kirkus,
Publishers Weekly and
Booklist!
The Roaring Days of Zora Lily by Noelle Salazar which has a very impressive average rating of 4.8-stars from our members. We've run more than 800 First Impressions Programs and just 17 have achieved a rating as high!
Also, don't miss
Moscow X, in which
David McCloskey "mixes the tradecraft of John le Carré with the glitz of Sidney Sheldon" (
Publishers Weekly, starred review). We have
25 print copies to give away!
Today marks the start of
Banned Books Week, which highlights the value of free and open access to information. Never in its 40+ year history has this event been as important as this year, when bans on books and information in the U.S. are taking on Orwellian proportions.

With best wishes,
