New Releases
Just in time for the start of the school year, this week’s new releases offer compelling tales of ambition, consequences, and ultimate redemption as everyone is heading back to their desks. Secrets are uncovered as we follow the Faust teenagers to the elite Marlowe School, where they soar to suspicious heights with the help of their benefactor’s extraordinary "gifts" in ANOTHER FAUST.
In case you're in search of a late-season beach read or an excuse to put off those dreaded summer reading assignments for just a little bit longer, this week's new releases offers five escapist novels packed with everything from family skeletons, a sweeping 13th century romance, a hippie colony in the mountains, and of course... zombies!New Releases for August 18thHardcovers
There's no shortage of interesting characters in this week's new releases, where you'll encounter a high school debutante, a Danish prince with a lot on his plate, an otherwise good girl who just did a very bad thing, a first-year psych major with boyfriend issues, some stranded sailors, a young girl fighting against an unfortunate (to say the least) family curse, and more.New Releases for August 11thHardcover
This week's roundup of new releases brings us a real mixed bag --- we've got a few gritty coming-of-age novels, some fiction of the paranormal variety, a couple of romances and thrillers, and new installments of some of your favorite series. Also, be sure to check out a new line of memoirs from HCI Teens called Louder Than Words, in which real teens authors share their very real --- and rather heart-breaking --- stories. The first three are available today.
Remember how I mentioned last week that new books always come out on Tuesdays? I lied. Much to my surprise, this week we've got a few Saturday releases to share with you --- which will be available August 1st --- along with a pretty exciting list of hardcovers and paperbacks you can expect to see in stores tomorrow.

In case you didn't already know, most new books (as well as CDs and DVDs) are released on Tuesdays. I'm not really sure why, but a quick Google search revealed many different, but plausible reasons for this, relating to things like sales figures, shipping time, and in-store preparation. Regardless, you'll often see "New Tuesday Releases" lists in bookstores, magazines, newspapers, websites, blogs, etc.
