Arguably: Essays, by Christopher Hitchens
I haven't read any of these. I'm a huge fan of Ann Patchett's work and I've been following Eugenides since The Virgin Suicides. I have no clue how I didn't know he had a new novel out. Also, Daryl Gregory tends to be fantastic. I haven't read his new novel OR this new collection. Sigh. So much to read.
