We’ve collected the books debuting on Indiebound’s Indie Bestseller List for the week ending Nov. 08, 2015–a sneak peek at the books everybody will be talking about next month.
(Debuted at #1 in Children’s Fiction Series) Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Old School by Jeff Kinney: “Life was better in the old days. Or was it? That’s the question Greg Heffley is asking as his town voluntarily unplugs and goes electronics-free. But modern life has its conveniences, and Greg isn’t cut out for an old-fashioned world.” (Nov. 2015)
(Debuted at #13 in Hardcover Fiction) After Alice by Gregory Maguire: “Down the rabbit-hole, where adventures await…When Alice toppled down the rabbit-hole 150 years ago, she found a Wonderland as rife with inconsistent rules and abrasive egos as the world she left behind. But what of that world? How did 1860s Oxford react to Alice’s disappearance?” (Oct. 2015)
(Debuted at #14 in Hardcover Nonfiction) Lights Out by Ted Koppel: “Imagine a blackout lasting not days, but weeks or months. Tens of millions of people over several states are affected. For those without access to a generator, there is no running water, no sewage, no refrigeration or light. Food and medical supplies are dwindling. Devices we rely on have gone dark. Banks no longer function, looting is widespread, and law and order are being tested as never before.” (Oct. 2015)
