Macmillan hits the June 2015 LibraryReads list!

FANTASTIC NEWS! Macmillan has TWO terrific books on the June 2015 LibraryReads list!

Coming in at #3 is THE BOOK OF SPECULATION by Erika Swyler
In Swyler’s hand-illustrated and “whimsically dark debut” (Publishers Weekly), a recently unemployed librarian receives a mysterious book that holds the key to a curse that has haunted his family of traveling circus performers for generations. It’s a Summer 2015 Barnes & Noble Discover Great New Writers Selection! “Fans of historical novels, especially titles with circus themes or touched with a hint of the supernatural such as Erin Morgenstern’s The Night Circus, Katharine Dunn’s Geek Love, or Katharine Howe’s The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane, won’t want to leave this festival.”   Library Journal

BOOK OF SPECULATION by @ErikaSwyler Fromstaff: Family history,magic, curses, & research tied up in one satisfying read. @macmillanlib #ewgc

Available from St. Martin’s Press and Macmillan Audio on June 23.

Landing at #8 is THE PRECIPICE by Paul Doiron
In the riveting new novel from Edgar finalist Doiron, Mike Bowditch joins a desperate search for two missing hikers as Maine wildlife officials deal with a frightening rash of coyote attacks. It’s received two starred reviews, including this rave from Booklist: “This is one of the finest entries in a uniformly strong series that has quietly taken its place among the very best outdoors-based crime dramas.”

@MacmillanLib @pauldoiron Loved THE PRECIPICE! Fast-paced but worth slowing down to enjoy the fiercely beautiful landscape.
