Fast-Rising Bestsellers
Justice Hall
by Laurie R. King
Thanks to Laurie King's Justice Hall, Conan Doyle is not dead--he has merely ceased to be mortal. The new Holmes tales by Edgar-winning novelist King are so uncannily authentic, one suspects she shares his gift for communicating with spirits. In Justice Hall, a lost heir, murder most foul, and the unexpected return of two old friends start Mary Russell and Sherlock Holmes--spouses and intellectual equals--on an investigation from the trenches of World War I France to the heights of English society.

The Golden One

by Elizabeth Peters
In Elizabeth Peters's The Golden One, Amelia Peabody once again heeds the siren call of the tombs of Egypt in the midst of World War I.

Princess in Love (The Princess Diaries, Volume III)

by Meg Cabot
The best teen novel in diary form since Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging: Confessions of Georgia Nicolson is Meg Cabot's Princess in Love. At 14, Manhattan's Mia Thermopolis ("five foot nine inches tall, with no visible breasts, feet the size of snowshoes") is the princess of the European country of Genovia. A royal pain! Not only does she have to endure daily princess lessons from her critical Grandmère, but her boyfriend's a loser, and she's convinced the real love of her life--her best friend's older brother--thinks of her as a kid.

It turns out Publishers Weekly shares my opinion of Rosie O'Donnell's memoir, Find Me: "Those who declare this merely a sexual 'coming-out' story (there are passing references to dating a woman and to Rosie's partner, Kelli) need a heart and brain transplant. Here, Rosie offers us an unsentimental and utterly real tale about the power of love." The book's available April 16, so pre-order it now.

City of Bones by Michael Connelly, available April 16: Detective Hieronymous "Harry" Bosch and his well-dressed partner, Jerry Edgar, are working to identify a child's skeleton, buried for 20 years in the forest off Hollywood's Wonderland Drive, and to bring the killer to belated justice.

"All of the sites mentioned in The Shelters of Stone are real," says author Jean M. Auel. But in her latest prehistoric novel, the tall, handsome romantic hero is actually a quarter inch taller than the skeleton that inspired him. It's available April 30.
