We’ve collected the books debuting on Indiebound’s Indie Bestseller List for the week ending December 14, 2014–a sneak peek at the books everybody will be talking about next month.
(Debuted at #6 in Hardcover Fiction) The Rosie Effect by Graeme Simsion: “Don Tillman and Rosie Jarman are back. The Wife Project is complete, and Don and Rosie are happily married and living in New York. But they’re about to face a new challenge because— surprise!—Rosie is pregnant.” (December 2014)
(Debuted at #15 in Hardcover Nonfiction) The Motivation Manifesto by Brendon Burchard: “We desire the grand liberties of choice – time freedom, emotional freedom, social freedom, financial freedom, spiritual freedom. Only two enemies stand in our way: an external enemy, defined as the social oppression of who we are by the mediocre masses and an internal enemy, a sort of self-oppression caused by our own doubt and fear. The march to Personal Freedom, Burchard argues, can be won only by declaring our intent and independence, stepping into our personal power, and battling through self-doubt and the distractions of the day until full victory is won. ” (November 2014)
(Debuted at #15 in Paperback Nonfiction) The Death of Santini by Pat Conroy: “As the oldest of seven children who were dragged from military base to military base across the South, Pat bore witness to the often cruel and violent behavior of his father, Marine Corps fighter pilot Donald Patrick Conroy. While the publication ofThe Great Santini brought Pat much acclaim, the rift it caused brought even more attention, fracturing an already battered family.” (December 2014)
