B as in Beauty
By: Ferreras, Alberto
Published by: Grand Central Publishing
Everyone in the world, it seems, is either prettier or thinner (or both)
than Beauty Marie Zavala. And the only thing "B" resents more than her
name is the way others judge her for the extra 40 pounds she can't lose.
At least she has her career. Or did, until she overhears her boss
criticizing her weight and devising a scheme to keep her from being
promoted. Enter B's new tax accountant, a modern-day matchmaker
determined to boost B's flagging self-esteem by introducing her to rich,
successful men who will accept her for who she is. As B's confidence
blossoms, so do her fantasies of revenge. But will B find true happiness
or true disaster when she unwittingly falls for the one guy she
shouldn't?

Harry Bosch Novels, The: Volume 2
By: Connelly, Michael
Published by: Little, Brown
The Last Coyote: LAPD homicide detective Harry Bosch is suspended from
the force for attacking his commanding officer. Unable to remain idle,
he investigates the long-unsolved murder of a Hollywood prostitute.
Trunk Music: Harry returns to the force to investigate the murder of a
movie producer with Mafia ties. Up against both the LAPD's organized
crime unit and the mob, Harry follows the money trail to Las Vegas,
where the case becomes personal. Angels Flight: The murder of a
prominent African-American attorney who made his career suing the police
for racism and brutality means that Harry's friends and associates have
become suspects; and he must work closely with longtime enemies
suspicious of his maverick ways to investigate them. Together for the
first time, these three chilling, pulse-pounding novels chart the
volatile, breakneck career of the sleuth the New York Post calls "the
quintessential mystery book hero" and prove that "Michael Connelly's
Harry Bosch novels are the most impressive body of work by any writer of
crime thrillers now active" (Washington Post).

America Libre
By: Ramos y Sanchez, Raul
Published by: Grand Central Publishing
After years of anti-immigrant backlash, anger seethes in the nation's
Latino communities. The crowded streets bristle with restless youth,
idled by a deep recession. When undercover detectives in San Antonio
accidentally kill a young Latina bystander during a botched drug bust,
riots erupt across the Southwest. As the inner-city violence escalates,
Anglo vigilantes strike back with shooting rampages. Exploiting the
turmoil, a congressional demagogue succeeds in passing legislation that
transforms the nation's Hispanic enclaves into walled-off Quarantine
Zones. Citizens tagged Class H-those who are Hispanic, are married to a
Hispanic, or have at least one grandparent of Hispanic origin-are forced
into detention centers. Amid the chaos in his L.A. barrio, Manolo
Suarez is out of work and struggling to support his growing family. But
under the spell of a beautiful Latina radical, the former U.S. Army
Ranger and decorated war veteran now finds himself questioning his
loyalty to his wife-and to his country.
