Hello, and welcome to a new, and hopefully brighter new year. We at Annie’s Book Stop of Worcester are always aiming to bring you the newest and best books that are coming out each week, starting with this week’s new arrivals. There are some wonderful but chilling new arrivals on our shelves this week, to go along with the weather. To start out, there are a few thrillers or thrilling novels:
ANTHEM by Noah Hawley (literary thriller)
THE MAID: A NOVEL by Nita Prose (mystery/thriller) Good Morning America Book Club Pick
SCHOOL FOR GOOD MOTHERS by Jessamine Chan (Dystopian Fiction – not a thriller, but chilling!)
Then we have some contemporary fiction novels from some well-known authors and debut authors to bring in the new year, and show us slices of life in the current time:
INVISIBLE: A NOVEL by Danielle Steele (contemporary fiction)
HONOR by Thrity Umrigar (Reese’s Book Club Pick)
OLGA DIES DREAMING (Hispanic American Literature and Fiction) by Xochitl Gonzales
For a view of the future, we have:
STAR WARS: THE FALLEN STAR (THE HIGH REPUBLIC) by Claudia Gray
And I would also put SCHOOL FOR GOOD MOTHERS by Jessamine Chan in this category, since it is really Dystopian Fiction. A Read with Jenna Today Show Book Club Pick
And, last but not least, a self-help book:
KEEP SHARP: BUILD A BETTER BRAIN AT ANY AGE by Sanjay Gupta

As always, thank you for making our shelves your destination.
