The Receptionist: An Education at the New Yorker

By Janet Groth

$14.95

Groth was a receptionist at the The New Yorker magazine from 1957-1978. She met great writers, Mad Men types, and bohemians, giving her a unique position to sample from the cultural plate of New York City and beyond, and to figure out how she wanted to fit into that world. This is a great portrait of that place and time, and a fascinating story of a woman during that era finding herself. - Kent

The Yonahlossee Riding Camp for Girls

By Anton DiSclafani

$27.95

It may be the most mispronounced title of the summer, but it'll be one of the most sought after. “Lush” in every sense of the word: exquisite period details, forbidden love, beautiful NC mountain setting, and, oh yes, horses. Thea's contributions to a family tragedy (slowly revealed over the course of the novel) have altered her present life with a speed and ferocity that leave her unmoored. But it's the profound effect this year of change will have on her future that propels her (and us) along. - Rosemary

QRB Picks

Life After Life

By Kate Atkinson

$27.99

It is amazingly original—one of those stories that shows how history can be changed by the smallest choices. Her dazzling writing is witty, sometimes dark, and profound throughout. The scenes of the London Blitz are heart wrenching. - Nancy

The Lady Matador's Hotel

By Cristina Garcia

$15.00

Cristina Garcia weaves together the lives of five characters at a hotel in an unnamed Central American country. With its lyrical description and touches of magic (and of course the setting) the prose may faintly echo that of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, but Cristina Garcia has crafted a subtle and delightful gem of her own. - Tony

Easy's friends are fascinating—one (Mouse) is a cold-blooded killer with a big heart (except toward his victims) who will do anything to help his friends. - Nancy
