This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:
The Explanation for Everything
By Lauren Grodstein
Publication Date: September 3
From Amazon:
There is nothing inherently threatening about Melissa, a young evangelist hoping to write the definitive paper on intelligent design. But when she implores Andy Waite, a biology professor and a hardcore evolutionist, to direct her independent study, she becomes the catalyst for the collapsing house of cards surrounding him. As he works with Melissa, Andy finds that everything about his world is starting to add up differently. Suddenly there is the possibility of faith. But with it come responsibility and guilt—the very things that Andy has sidestepped for years.

I never heard of that book, but it does sound good! Thanks for sharing it with us.
*sorry I had to post twice, your site remembered another post I linked to a couple of weeks ago :( The second link is the correct one.
That actually sounds like a really good book. Mine is for a fantasy YA novel that is loosely based on Beauty and the Beast, called Cruel Beauty. The cover is gorgeous too!
