Never heard of any of them :(

I never heard of any of these, but I sure heard of "Shattered Bonds" by Faith Hunter, which is also releasing today!
I've never heard of any of these but Full Disclosure immediately piqued my interest so I bopped on over to my local library's website and checked out the e-book!
Sorry to say but why nearly all of the 2019 books are about LGBT issues? Do writers think that is a good way to write about popular topics and make money. Ok, thats fine but what about the people who do want to read something useful?
What is the criteria for selecting the books featured? Because there are a lot of books released every week, yet the featured ones seem slanted towards celebrity authors/biographies and the favored issue of the day.

Evidence Ignored: What You May Not Know About Columbine by Rita Gleason was also released this week. It's a well researched, in-depth analysis of what happened in the lives of the two killers, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold in the two years before the attack. The book contradicts, with abundant evidence, the now commonly held belief that Harris was just a psychopath that pushed Klebold into the crime.
Joyce C wrote: "The Beautiful Ones by Prince? Really?"I saw it mentioned in Entertainment Weekly. I get the impression that it is a bit like a scrapbook of Prince's actual writings and artwork and that his biographer pulled it all together and filled in parts with information from interviews and the like. Might be interesting if you are a Prince fan.
