DIANE'S BOOKS FOREVER AND FOREVER!

An exciting book-filled March 2024! Here is a yummy taste:

NON-FICTION:

THE NEW YORK GAME: Baseball and the Rise of a New City by Kevin Baker

A great way for baseball fans to kick off the start of the 2024 season! "An exemplary sports book."

BUNNY WILLIAMS: LIFE IN THE GARDEN by Bunny Williams.

SPRING GARDENS! Walk with Bunny Williams in her garden as she muses on her 40+ year love affair with her gorgeous garden! 400 color illustrations.

HISTORICAL FICTION:

FINDING MARGARET FULLER by Allison Pataki

FOUND AT LAST! The amazing MARGARET FULLER, one of the American Bloomsbury, which included Louisa May Alcott, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nathaniel Hawthorne and Henry David Thoreau. MARGARET FULLER  will become "the radiant genius and fiery heart" of the Transcendentalists. FABULOUS!
 

PICASSO'S LOVERS  by Jeanne Mackin.

I love what Kate Quinn writes: "A bold sumptuous portrait of a great artist and the women who inspired, frustrated, loved and loathed him." A GREAT READ!

THRILLERS:

THE CHAOS AGENT: A Gray Man Novel  by Mark Greaney

Artificial intelligence leads to shockingly real danger for the GRAY MAN! WE LOVE THE GRAY MAN!

LONE WOLF: An Orphan X Novel by Gregg Hurwitz.

Back for his ninth taut thriller, Orphan X squares off against a ruthless AI magnet and a  mercenary doppelganger! 

FOR CHILDREN:

PICTURE BOOKS.

TEN LITTLE RABBITS by Maurice Sendak.

EXCITING! The late "Maurice Sendak's  legacy continues with this playful counting extravaganza for the youngest child." Previously unpublished.

JUST ONE MORE SLEEP: All Good Things Come To Those Who Wait and Wait and Wait by Jamie Lee Curtis.

AHH! WAITING for children is difficult but Jamie Lee Curtis makes it clear that WAITING is worth it! We love Jamie Lee Curtis.
