We’ve collected the hardcover books debuting on Indiebound’s Indie Bestseller List for the week ending June 12, 2011–a sneak peek at the books everybody will be talking about next month.
(Debuted at #1) State of Wonder by Ann Patchett: “In a narrative replete with poison arrows, devouring snakes, and a neighboring tribe of cannibals, State of Wonder is a world unto itself, where unlikely beauty stands beside unimaginable loss. It is a tale that leads the reader into the very heart of darkness, and then shows us what lies on the other side.” (June 2011)
(Debuted at #5) Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs: “An unforgettable novel that mixes fiction and photography in a thrilling reading experience. As our story opens, a horrific family tragedy sets sixteen-year-old Jacob journeying to a remote island off the coast of Wales, where he discovers the crumbling ruins of Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children.” (June 2011)
(Debuted at #11) Demonic: How the Liberal Mob Is Endangering America by Ann Coulter: “The demon is a mob, and the mob is demonic. The Democratic Party activates mobs, depends on mobs, coddles mobs, publicizes and celebrates mobs—it is the mob.” (June 2011)
