We’ve collected the books debuting on Indiebound’s Indie Bestseller List for the week ending July 3, 2016–a sneak peek at the books everybody will be talking about next month.
(Debuted at #6 in Hardcover Fiction) First Comes Love by Emily Giffin: “Growing up, Josie and Meredith Garland shared a loving, if sometimes contentious, relationship. Josie was impulsive, spirited, and outgoing, Meredith hardworking, thoughtful, and reserved. When tragedy strikes, their delicate bond splinters.” (June 2016)
(Debuted at #13 in Hardcover Nonfiction) White Trash by Nancy Isenberg: “Marginalized as a class, white trash have always been at or near the center of major political debates over the character of the American identity. We acknowledge racial injustice as an ugly stain on our nation’s history. With Isenberg’s landmark book, we will have to face the truth about the enduring, malevolent nature of class as well.” (June 2016)
(Debuted at #14 in Young Adult) Beware That Girl by Teresa Toten: “When the handsome and whip-smart Mark Redkin joins the Waverly administration, he immediately charms his way into the faculty’s and students’ lives—becoming especially close to Olivia, a fact she’s intent on keeping to herself. It becomes increasingly obvious that Redkin poses a threat to Kate, too, in a way she can’t reveal—and can’t afford to ignore. How close can Kate and Olivia get to Mark without having to share their dark pasts?” (May 2016)
