Hit The Books: New Titles Coming Out This Spring
April 4, 2018
If you’re in the market for your next interesting read, you may want a glimpse of what’s to come. In the next few months, several new titles exploring the ups and downs of life as we continue to age will be hitting the bookshelves. So, take a look at The Happiness Curve, by writer and political commentator Jonathan Rauch. Coming out May 1, the book was sparked by the author’s own struggle with “middle-age slump” and his recognition of the upside that can await you as you enter your later years. Or, in June you’ll be able to pick up On The Brink of Everything: Grace, Gravity and Getting Old by Parker Palmer. Palmer is a Quaker, educator, and activist who writes a regular column for the website OnBeing. His book is a mix of humor and meditations on living in your later years. But if you can’t wait, and want a great read right now, pick up the newly published book by best-selling author Lisa Genova, the esteemed neuroscientist whose Ted Talk on Alzheimer’s and brain health was viewed by many of you last year. Author of the best-selling Still Alice, Genova’s new book, Every Note Played, is about a brilliant pianist struck down with ALS. No matter which, fire up the Kindle and get reading!
