Wednesday's PW Daily had a piece on the Today show book club, with an interesting footnote about all the titles for Today and Good Morning America coming from the Book Sense 76 list:
"Meanwhile, what intrigues many publishing observers about book club
selections on the national level is that almost every one of these
selections has first appeared on Book Sense 76, the list of upcoming
titles that independent booksellers are excited about and recommend to
customers each season.
That's quite a track record for the next Jonathan Franzen or anybody in
a future judging position: Instead of picking an author with whom you
share connections, read the titles on the latest Book Sense 76 for a
wider range and a fairer list of candidates."
