I don’t know how many of you will have noticed this already, but Library Journal has begun a new column on their website and in their e-newsletter, BookSmack!, called “Book Cheer.”
The idea is that the heads of Library Marketing at 12 different publishers in the AAP are sending books to each other to be reviewed. The latest installment is by Macmillan’s Talia Sherer, and although she didn’t choose it overall, she mentions Henning Mankell’s THE MAN FROM BEIJING in a positive note. Check back to LJ.com and search “book cheer” for the latest picks from corporately unfaithful directors.
