Laydown Lowdown

It's kind of ironic compiling the Laydown Lowdown, when all you want to do is laydown yourself.  I think the hour we lost when springing ahead has caught up with me. 

I'm pretty excited about one of today's YA releases, "The Savage Grace," by Bree Despain, the 3rd novel in the "Dark Divine" series.  It's a wonderful mashup of werewolves, romance, and Christianity.  I love it and I can't wait to find out what happens next.  I'm sure Rebecca T. is equally excited that "Spell Bound," the 3rd book in Rachel Hawthorne's "Hex Hall," series is out today.  She mentioned it was one of her top picks for 2012, here.  Also available today is the 5th book in the "Gallagher Girls" series, "Out of Sight, Out of Time," by Ally Carter and Sherilyn Kenyon's latest "Chronicles of Nick," novel, "Infamous."

Over in mystery, best-selling author Gemma Halliday deviates from her traditional cozy mysteries with a high-action thriller, "Play Nice."  Other new releases in mystery include "The Girl Next Door," by Brad Parks and "Another Time, Another Life," by Leif G.W. Persson.  Best-selling author, Oleg Steinhauer releases a follow-up to last year's hit, "The Tourist," "An American Spy."

Jump on over to Sci-Fi and you'll find the 9th "Star Wars: Fate of the Jedi" novel "Apocalypse" by Troy Denning as well as best-selling author, Raymond Feist's latest, "A Crown Imperiled" and "City of Bohane," by Kevin Barry.

Chick lit queen, Jane Green's latest work, "Another Piece of My Heart" hit shelves today.  Romance fans will loose a piece of their heart this week as I could only find one new romance title releasing tomorrow, "Bound by Desire," by Jaymie Holland.

And there you have it !  Another Laydown Lowdown folks :)  Happy Reading and remember, support your local bookstores whenever possible.  Just because our blog is online, doesn't mean your shopping has to be.
