the indie NEXT list The Rosie Project A Novel, by Graeme Simsion (Simon & Schuster, 9781476729084, $24) “Don Tillman is a brilliant geneticist, but he has always been rather socially maladroit. Imagine his surprise when a friend tells him that he would make a wonderful husband. Intrigued, he starts The Wife Project and commences the search for the perfect spouse. While in the midst of his extremely precise hunt for a wife, Rosie Jarman blows into Don’s life like a wild wind. Rosie is on a quest of her own—The Father Project—the search for her biological father. Rosie is the antithesis of Don’s image of the perfect wife of his scientific calculations, but somehow he finds himself putting The Wife Project on the back burner to aid Rosie. Much ado about a comedy of errors ensues in this hilarious, quirky romance!” Rachel King, Book House of Stuyvesant Plaza, Albany, NY The Lowland The Last Banquet A Novel, by Jonathan Grimwood (Europa Editions, 9781609451387, $26.95) Recommended by Amanda Hurley, Inkwood Books, Tampa, FL The Signature of All Things A Novel, by Elizabeth Gilbert (Viking, 9780670024858, $28.95) Recommended Kate Mai, Blue Willow Bookshop, Houston, TX The Paris Architect A Novel, by Charles Belfoure (Sourcebooks Landmark, 9781402284311, $25.99) Recommended by Linda Bond, Auntie’s Bookstore, Spokane, WA Three Can Keep a Secret TA Joe Gunther Novel, by Archer Mayor (Minotaur, 9781250026132, $25.99) Recommended by David Lampe-Wilson, Mystery on Main Street, Brattleboro, VT The Fountain of St. James Court or, Portrait of the Artist as an Old Woman: A Novel, by Sena Jeter Naslund (William Morrow, 9780061579325, $26.99) Recommended by Stephanie Crowe, Page & Palette, Fairhope, AL Guests on Earth A Novel, by Lee Smith (Algonquin Books, 9781616202538, $25.95) Recommended by Jackie Willey, Fiction Addiction, Greenville, SC The Night Guest A Novel, by Fiona McFarlane (Faber & Faber, 9780865477735, $26) Recommended by Robert Sindelar, Third Place Books, Lake Forest Park, WA Lighthouse Island A Novel, by Paulette Jiles (William Morrow, 9780062232502, $26.99) Recommended by Cathy Langer, Tattered Cover Book Store, Denver, CO Survival Lessons by Alice Hoffman ((Algonquin Books, 9781616203146, $13.95) Recommended by Adrian Newell, Warwick’s, La Jolla, CA OCTOBER ’13 Find more independent bookseller recommendations at IndieBound.org IndieBound is a movement of the American Booksellers Association.
