NightShade features a brand new character, Detective Stilwell, whom Michael loves so much, he's going to return to in future books. We chat to him about the challenges of creating a brand new series when you're forty books in; where Stilwell fits into the Connelly Universe that already includes Bosch, Ballard and The Lincoln Lawyer and why his characters who all work around law enforcement, seem to be Anti Establishment!We love Mike here at Bestsellers and wish him well with the unforeseen medical procedures his doctors have ordered, which have led to the cancellation of his UK and US tour.

In this Allison Larkin interview, we discuss writing Home of the American Circus and the creative writing routines that have transformed her life with ADHD.This week, I'm talking with my friend and bestselling author Allison Larkin about her latest novel, Home of the American Circus. But this conversation goes far beyond crafting this sprawling family drama. Allison is pulling back the curtain on how she writes such emotionally resonant stories while navigating ADHD and the beautiful writing habits she's uncovered by simply embracing her creative brain.Home of the American Circus is set in Somers, NY—the birthplace of the American circus and the author's hometown. Freya must return home after a financial emergency in this beautiful family drama. The house she's returned to is crumbling, and the relationships are even more so. But when she discovers her 15-year-old niece secretly living there, she unravels her past and reimagines what healing might look like.In this warm conversation, Allison and I discuss:

Es war eine Insta-Kachel mit einem kleinen Video, die Caros Aufmerksamkeit erweckte: Danish Dads stand darüber – überall tummelten sie sich in Kopenhagen mit ihren Kiddies, auf Spielplätzen, in öffentlichen Parkanlagen, kaum ein Platz in der City schien vor ihnen sicher ;-) Nach einem kurzen Austausch mit Ann-Marlene dazu, die ja bekanntermaßen Dänin ist, war klar: Dieser Anblick ist nicht nur der dänischen Hauptstadt vorbehalten, sondern prägt überall in unserem Nachbarland das Straßenbild. Auch wenn es positive Ansätze gibt, ist Deutschland noch meilenweit von diesem Zustand entfernt. Allzu oft übernehmen Mütter hierzulande nach wie vor einen Großteil der Care-Arbeit – und das hat Auswirkungen auf die Beziehung und den Sex. Was läuft in Dänemark anders, wieso kann die Care-Arbeit dort offenbar viel gleichmäßiger verteilt werden – und wieso ist der "Danish Way of Parenting" (so der Name eines dänischen Bestsellers, der in 31 Sprachen übersetzt wurde) so erstrebenswert? Ann-Marlene und Caro klären auf. So viel sei vorab verraten: Hyggeligkeit spielt bei all dem eine nicht unbeträchtliche Rolle …

Back to normal! No guests this week, just a bunch of books to talk about, including some big names. Is Sam's mic kind of wonky early? Yes. Just get by that. It doesn't last long. And you really want to hear about: -  "Great Big Beautiful Life," by Emily Henry, which is just enough different from her previous beach reads to make a great beach read. It's a ridiculous biography contest set in Georgia.  - "The Name of this Band is R.E.M.," by Peter Ames Carlin, which Sam found a little boring, but it's hard to tell if that's just because R.E.M. is a boring band.  - "Raising Hare," by Chloe Dalton, which really is about raising a bunny, but not a bunny, a hare, which is a different mysterious kind of animal. Better than that sounds, though.  - "Everything is Tuberculosis," by John Green, which has a terrible name, but is very readable because John Green can write like crazy. This leads to talk about Reddit forums detailing woo-woo mom forum posting, for reasons, and discussion of the term "vlogger."  - "Whyte Python World Tour," by Travis Kennedy, an absolutely absurd and often funny tale of a hair-metal band secretly working for the CIA to bring down the Wall in the late 1980s. Sam doesn't know what to make of it.  - "Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries," by Heather Fawcett, which is delightful, about an academic cataloging faeries in Norway. It's cozy and quite charming.  Also, no, we didn't get this posted in time for Bookstore Day or the Literary Festival, but just try to look past that. It's already happened and you missed it. But there will be other stuff that's awesome in the future, we promise. 

Send us a textCan you feel it? Well, if you don't live in New Orleans right now, maybe not but LIVE IT vicariously through me and my family! Douglas and my oldest daughter LOVE Jazz Fest. Me, you may ask? Nope. I went back 13 years ago to surprise my sweet mama! We took her to see Al Green and it was epic. It was hot. It was super bright and my skin turned 7 shades of red. I'm good on that, but I LOVE to see the happiness flow through my family and the rest of partakers. This year, I thought it would be super cool to welcome the King of Food Reviews and All things NOLA! Who none other than NOLA.COM's inspirational food and culture writer, Ian McNulty! And y'all... he is the REAL DEAL.Foodies are intimidating, usually. Remember that guy that would come to review  the food in the Disney movie Ratatouille? Ok- well that is NOT Ian. I was able to sit down and really hear the passion in his voice and the love in his heart for New Orleans. Ian McNulty has been writing about the life and culture of New Orleans since 1999 as a reporter, columnist, and author. He is a staff writer for the New Orleans Advocate, where he focuses on the food culture of one of the world's great food cities, and his radio commentaries air weekly on the New Orleans NPR affiliate. He is author of A Season of Night: New Orleans Life after Katrina and Louisiana Rambles: Exploring America's Cajun and Creole Heartland, both published by University Press of Mississippi. The latter was named one of the top travel books by the Society of American Travel Writers.

It was so cute to see her curled up on the couch or her bed reading this book with such pride. She was so excited to review it for me. "Makayla is bursting with ideas but doesn't know how to make them into a story. Howard loves to draw, but he struggles to come up with ideas and his dad thinks comics are a waste of time. Lynda constantly draws in her sketchbook but keeps focusing on what she feels are mistakes, and Art simply loves being creative and is excited to try something new. They come together to form The Cartoonists Club, where kids can learn about making comics and use their creativity and imagination for their own storytelling adventures!"Find this BRAND NEW and NEWLY RELEASED BOOK EVERYWHERE!

Qué Temas Quieres Escuchar Toca y Hablemos. TE LEO.Las emociones, como el enfado o la molestia hacia alguien, pueden quedarse dentro de nosotros y transformarse en rencor. Ese rencor, con el tiempo, se somatiza y puede afectar nuestra salud. ¿Por qué nos resulta tan difícil perdonar? A veces, las experiencias más dolorosas, como una traición, nos enseñan lecciones valiosas. Nunca imaginamos vivir ciertas situaciones dolorosas, pero cuando ocurren, pueden marcar un antes y un después en nuestras vidas. El perdón, aunque difícil, es un acto liberador que, aunque a veces visto como “egoísta”, beneficia tanto a quien lo concede como a quien lo recibe. ¿Qué se le puede decir a una mujer que está viviendo en una situación familiar de abuso físico, verbal o de cualquier tipo? Hay una frase muy cierta: “El valiente vive hasta que el cobarde quiere”. La verdadera valentía es reconocer que mereces vivir en paz y dar el primer paso para buscar ayuda. María Antonieta Collins, periodista, locutora y escritora mexicana, ha cautivado audiencias en Estados Unidos con su talento y carisma. Ganadora de siete premios Emmy, incluido el Peabody y el Edward R.

Today's Cast: Dan, Stugotz, Chris, Roy, Billy, Mike, Tony. Didn't we say this was finally going to be the year we take off the Wednesday before Thanksgiving? Why are we here? Since we are here, might as well kick off the show with some Andrew Luck to celebrate. After that, we dive further into Stugotz's Personal Record Book (stugotzbook.com) and all of the madness that went into making this book a reality. Why is the audio book not out yet? Does Stugotz have any shame about the process that led to the book being published? Plus, Stugotz saved Mike Ryan's wedding and Thomas somehow doesn't have a key fob. Finally, the University of Miami remains in a good spot after the latest College Football Playoff rankings, and Mike Ryan explains why he's less concerned about the defense than some people may be.

A mysterious new book starts making its way to the top of the Best Sellers category on Amazon books. It just doesn't make sense though. The book isn't authored by a well known author… on top of that, it's quite a pricey book.  59 pages.  $22. Reviewers say it's riddled with typos and factual inaccuracies. Why is it suddenly on the best sellers list? The title is: “Kim's Lost Words: A Journey For Justice From The Other Side” It claims to be a memoir written by Kim Porter, Diddy's ex gf, and the mother of his 4 children.  Part of the introduction reads: “He was so charming - a wolf in sheep's clothing. A devil and I fell for it. This story must be told despite the fact that it will hurt my children. I cannot hide it any longer. Sean Combs must be stopped....” But there's no way Kim Porter published it herself - because she passed away in 2018.  So who wrote it? The author claims he received a flash drive from close sources. But is he trustworthy?  But more importantly - why are netizens calling for Kim Porter's death to be re-investigated?
