\"DROWING<\/a>DROWNING: The Rescue of Flight 1421<\/strong><\/a> (T.J. NEWMAN): This book is a lean, mean, rescue\/race-against-the-clock thriller with a lot of heart and a gut-punch or two. I previously\u2014and favorably\u2014reviewed Newman’s debut novel FALLING. DROWNING tops it. I basically read this in a day. You won’t want to put it down. New York Times<\/em> Bestseller Don Winslow said this “reads like APOLLO 13<\/em> underwater.” He’s not wrong.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"SHUTTER<\/a>SHUTTER<\/strong><\/a> (RAMONA EMERSON): From the perspective of a forensic photographer who sees the ghosts of the victims at crime scenes, this is an entertaining mix of crime novel\u00a0 and supernatural thriller from an indigenous author. This might be my new favorite genre mashup!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"ALL<\/a>ALL THE SINNERS BLEED<\/strong><\/a> (S. A. COSBY): What starts as a terrifying school shooting in the small town of Charon, South Carolina, turns into a race to stop a truly horrifying serial killer. Newly elected sheriff Titus Crown, who has an impressive but checkered past as an FBI agent, may have met his match. Another tight thriller.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"THIS<\/a>THIS BIRD HAS FLOWN<\/strong><\/a> (Susanna Hoffs): Yes, that Susanna Hoffs (The Bangles) has written a heartfelt novel filled with wit and humor and some inside stuff on the vicissitudes of the music business. This is not my normal type of read, but I was curious to get some insider scoop on the life of a pop star. This breezy novel is a romantic delight. If you’re into that kind of thing.<\/p>\n
