You know the drill.

Susan Wiggs new novel, Just Breathe, is released today. Called “a beautiful novel” by no less a personage than Luanne Rice (you can see it right there on the cover), the novel follows Sarah Moon , a successful comic-strip illustrator and the wife of a real estate developer. They have a great life in Chicago until she discovers her husband is having an affair. This forces her to do the whole “confront her past” thing (according to the press release). Expect heart-wrenching insight and a new love interest and perhaps a movie in a year or so starring Richard Gere.

A Catholic priest searches for the truth about Jew killed in the Ukraine during the run up to World War II in The Holocaust of Bullets: A Priest’s Journey to Uncover the Truth Behind the Murder of 1.5 Million Jews. Father Patrick Dubois details the events surrounding the murders, which he calls the “first mass killings” of the Holocaust. Dubois, using old Nazi and Soviet records, documents the killings, many of which took place in public, not far from the villages where the Jews lived.
