Hi, {{first_name | friend}}!
The “major authors announcing books” news continues this week as Emily Henry dropped the deets on her next rom-com! If you missed my interview with her back in January for People We Meet on Vacation, go check it out. She was just as bright and wonderful as you’d hope!
And speaking of delightful vibes, over in Worth the Read I’m diving into the coziest, most heartwarming genre you’ve never heard of. Hint: if you love cats, coffee, or books about books, this one’s for you.
Yours,
Genevieve

BIOGRAPHY SPOTLIGHT
Swan Song: Diana, my sister
by Charles Spencer
Almost thirty years after Princess Diana’s death, Charles Spencer, her younger brother, is telling her story as only he can. In Swan Song, Spencer gives us an intimate look at the People’s Princess, from their childhood to the royal marriage that changed everything and her devastating final days. The result, as The New York Times puts it, is a story “full of love and vengeance.”
LITERARY FICTION SPOTLIGHT
The Strangers
by Naomi Alderman
Naomi Alderman, bestselling author of The Power, is back with a wholly unique, genre-bending novel. Part memoir, part speculative fiction, The Strangers follows a grieving novelist whose discovery of a mysterious new animal becomes a global phenomenon. Prepare yourself for “an entirely new species of writing about grief… [a] weird, warm-blooded, and inquisitive book” (Eleanor Catton, The Luminaries).
