Great New Paperbacks to Pick Up This Summer

The book gods, in their infinite kindness, have built second chances into the very structure of the modern distribution business. If you miss some of those big releases in hardback, you can always catch them on the paperback bounce.
 
We’ve gathered below 63 of the best new paperbacks released in the past few months. There’s something for everyone here, including the latest fiction from top-shelf authors like Elizabeth Strout, Kazuo Ishiguro, Taylor Jenkins Reid, Silvia Moreno-Garcia, and Honorée Fanonne Jeffers.
 
For some truly mind-boggling nonfiction, veteran journalist Walter Isaacson investigates future-tense genetic editing with his award-winning book Code Breaker. In the mood for a good mystery? You can’t miss with Louise Penny. How about a scary story? Stephen Graham Jones is a consummate professional in that regard.  
 
If you really want to jam your frontal lobes, short fiction specialist George Saunders offers multiple authors at once. His ambitious book A Swim in a Pond in the Rain reprints and breaks down seven iconic short stories by Chekhov, Turgenev, Tolstoy, and Gogol—think of it as a master class in book form.
