Week of October 19, 2026

Paperback releases for the week of October 19th include THE LAND OF SWEET FOREVER,   a posthumous collection of newly discovered short stories and previously published essays that offers a fresh perspective on the remarkable literary mind of Harper Lee; THE LAND IN WINTER by Andrew Miller, which our reviewer Philip Zozzaro calls “a deep and probing character study of two pairs of spouses facing uncertain futures. It is a first-rate read that deserves all the accolades it has received.”; THE PHOEBE VARIATIONS, a stunning coming-of-age novel from Jane Hamilton about friendship, mothers and finding one's way in the world; and the paperback original MISSING MOLLY by Natalie Barelli, a dark psychological thriller about a cold case, the newspaper investigating it, and the woman for whom it all hits a little too close to home.
