(Debuted at #15 in Early & Middle Grade Readers) Frankenstein written by Rick Walton & illustrated by Nathan Hale: “Frankenstein is the scariest of all the monsters in Miss Devel’s castle.

(Debuted at #15 in Hardcover Fiction) Paris for One and Other Stories by Jojo Moyes: “Nell is twenty-six and has never been to Paris. She’s never even been on a romantic weekend away—to anywhere—before. Traveling abroad isn’t really her thing. But when Nell’s boyfriend fails to show up for their mini-vacation, she has the opportunity to prove everyone—including herself—wrong. Alone in Paris, Nell finds a version of herself she never knew existed: independent and intrepid. Could this turn out to be the most adventurous weekend of her life?” (October 2016)
