Bad Feminist Roxane Gay, Harper Perennial, $15.99 Another Indie Favorite The Girl With a Clock for a Heart: A Novel, by Peter Swanson (William Morrow Paperbacks, $14.99) “This brilliant debut thriller has all the characteristics necessary for bestsellerdom! There is George Foss, an everyman protagonist who has never gotten over his first college sweetheart; Liana Dector, that first love, now a femme fatale who is as stunning as she is unpredictable; and a plot with surprises and twists on every other page. The Girl With a Clock for a Heart will take its rightful place beside my favorites from Michael Connelly and Dennis Lehane!” —Jerry Brown, The Bookstore, Radcliff, KY Copyright American Booksellers Association.
