This week when I was out and about the city I felt the holiday rush. People were racing around shopping and admiring the decorations. I confess that when I walked into a store right before Thanksgiving and heard blaring carols, I did a slight panic. I heard trees to be decorated, presents to buy and cookies to be baked, if such a thing were possible.
Happy Thanksgiving! This newsletter is arriving in your mailboxes a couple of days early as we are taking the end of the week off to enjoy the holiday. A short week does not mean we are short on news though some of our features are not being refreshed this week giving you a bit more time to enjoy them. We have a wonderful author interview with Walter Anderson, author of MEANT TO BE and our November roundup of new paperback titles.

In this interview conducted by Bookreporter.com Co-Founder Carol Fitzgerald, Sophie Kinsella reveals her inspiration for her bestselling Shopaholic series, shares a few of the most memorable letters she has received from readers and talks about her future writing plans --- which include a new stand-alone novel and a fourth Shopaholic book.
This week we announce our latest suspense/thriller author, Joseph Finder whose new book PARANOIA will be in stores on January 20th. As the story opens we meet Adam Cassidy, a low-level employee at a high-tech corporation who hates his job. When he manipulates the system to do something nice for a friend, he finds himself charged with a crime. Corporate Security gives him a choice: prison --- or become a spy in the headquarters of their chief competitor, Trion Systems. From this point Adam becomes a pawn in a game where someone else is controlling the moves, but who is it? It's a corporate espionage thriller that will keep you guessing till the end. I read the last line and still wonder what Adam did in answer to the final question.
