Holiday Cheer 2017

At Bookreporter.com, we've been celebrating the holiday season in style with our Holiday Cheer Contests and Feature. As our gift to you, we've been spotlighting a book and giving five lucky readers a chance to win it.

Although the contests have ended, we encourage you to take a look at this year's featured titles. These are books you'll want to read during the holidays --- and throughout the new year as well!

Week of October 15, 2018

Paperback releases for the week of October 15th include BOBBY KENNEDY, a gripping, in-depth, behind-the-scenes portrait of Robert F. Kennedy by Chris Matthews, an esteemed Kennedy expert and anchor of MSNBC’s "Hardball"; HACKS, Donna Brazile's explosive and revealing account of the Russian hacking of the DNC and the missteps by the Clinton campaign and Obama administration that enabled a Trump victory; THE RELIVE BOX, a collection of 12 stories from T.C. Boyle that speaks to the humor, the pathos and the struggle that is part of being human; and A SECRET SISTERHOOD by Emily Midorikawa and Emma Claire Sweeney, which brings to light a wealth of surprising female collaborations --- including the friendship between Jane Austen and one of the family servants, amateur playwright Anne Sharp; and the daring feminist author Mary Taylor, who shaped the work of Charlotte Brontë.
