The beauty of a paperback novel is multidimensional. Allow me to explain: The format allows you to catch up on some of 2020's biggest books after they've garnered accolades from your fellow readers and some of the most prestigious literary prizes alike. Paperbacks won't break the bank for your book club members. And, oh yeah, they are throw-in-a-bag ready to travel (even if that's just to accompany you on errands). In short, what's not to love?
We divided this list between newly released paperback fiction—including science fiction, historical fiction, lots of literary reads, and some page-turning mysteries—and just-landed paperback nonfiction, from hot memoirs to addictive long-form journalism.

Intriguing paperbacks.

Once Upon an Eid just came out in paperback and it's perfect for both children and adults!
John Grisham will keep writing novels until he's a 100 years old. Good for him.
While paperbacks are convenient, e-books are even more so, and I rely heavily on my very lightweight e-reader, using my iPhone for backup just in case I'm divorced from a charger for more than 20 hours. The value of a paperback is that if I lose it, no biggie--and I'm much more inclined to leave a pbk behind than my precious, but still inexpensive e-reader. I can't be separated from my phone for more than a few of minutes without experiencing a panic attack, so have never lost that little lifeline--except for all of those times I've left it in the car overnight. Oops. There were panic attacks.
Loved The Mountains Sing and I have an ARC. I also have the ARC of 28 Summers.
I find it so strange that Goodreads has millions of members but only manages 60 or so likes on a blog post. Organic reach sucks, don't it? lol

I DNF'd Jack by Marilynne Robinson. I loved the other books in the series but for some reason I couldn't get into Jack. I tried three times & gave up.
The new Dawn cover looks nice. I think I like the original more, but it's still lovely artwork.
