We’ve collected the books debuting on Indiebound’s Indie Bestseller List for the week ending April 22, 2012–a sneak peek at the books everybody will be talking about next month.
(Debuted at #3 in Hardcover Fiction) The Innocent by David Baldacci: “America has enemies–ruthless people that the police, the FBI, even the military can’t stop. That’s when the U.S. government calls on Will Robie, a stone cold hitman who never questions orders and always nails his target.
But Will Robie may have just made the first–and last–mistake of his career…” (April 2012)
(Debuted at #4 in Hardcover Nonfiction) Let’s Pretend This Never Happened by Jenny Lawson: “For fans of Tina Fey and David Sedaris—Internet star Jenny Lawson, aka The Bloggess, makes her literary debut. Jenny Lawson realized that the most mortifying moments of our lives—the ones we’d like to pretend never happened—are in fact the ones that define us.” (April 2012)
(Debuted at #10 in Hardcover Nonfiction) Darth Vader and Son by Jeffrey Brown: “What if Darth Vader took an active role in raising his son? What if ‘Luke, I am your father’ was just a stern admonishment from an annoyed dad? In this hilarious and sweet comic reimagining, Darth Vader is a dad like any other—except with all the baggage of being the Dark Lord of the Sith.” (April 2012)
