Kirkus Reviews says, “Patterson writes a family saga of class and money, power and pretense, love and loyalty. Think The Thorn Birds or Rich Man, Poor Man among the Martha’s Vineyard moneyed set.” Quercus will publish LOSS OF INNOCENCE in the U.S. on October 1, 2013.

SAFE KIDS, SMART PARENTS by Jaycee Dugard’s personal therapist and leading family psychologist, Rebecca Bailey and her sister Elizabeth Bailey, was reviewed in the July 2013 issue of BOOKLIST, which said: "The information imparted is valid and worthy of note.

Library Journal gives LOSS OF INNOCENCE a starred review, saying, “A title that is dripping with summer diversions, youthful passion and ideals, class tensions, and familial disruptions makes for wonderful reading whatever the season.” Quercus will publish LOSS OF INNOCENCE in the U.S. on October 1, 2013.

Ramona Ausubel’s A GUIDE TO BEING BORN was named by Flavorwire as one of its “Best Works of Fiction So Far,” saying, “Not only is Ausubel’s first collection of stories one of the best of the year so far, but its cover is standing nearly unrivaled as one of the most weirdly beautiful and alluring ever. The stories here are both surreal and unnervingly close to home.” Riverhead published the book on May 2, 2013.

Lucy Corin’s ONE HUNDRED APOCALYPSES AND OTHER APOCALYPSES was reviewed in Kirkus, which called it “experimental, postmodern and quirky.” McSweeney’s will publish the book on August 13, 2013.

THE IMPOSSIBLE LIVES OF GRETA WELLS by Andrew Sean Greer received accolades in The New York Times Sunday Book Review: “Elegiac in tone, this tale of time travel, loss and compromise is as precisely engineered as a Swiss watch… Greer… manages the complexities of this temporal round robin with precision and panache.” Ecco published the book June 25, 2013.

Olivia Laing’s THE TRIP TO ECHO SPRING was named a must-read by the Sunday Times and reviewed by The Guardian, the Independent, and the New Statesman.

Charlie Smith’s MEN IN MIAMI HOTELS was reviewed by the Free Lance-Star, which said, “Novelist Lorrie Moore has called Smith a writer of ‘appalling brilliance.’ Rick Moody calls him ‘one of the very best prose and writers in contemporary letters.’ And it’s no wonder. He writes like an angel with a broken heart.” Harper Perennial published the book on July 2, 2013.
