It’s a relatively small week in volume, but the books are big. In nonfiction, notables include Rachel Maddow and Michael Yarvitz’s Trump takedown, and James Patterson’s take on “the greatest true-crime story in music history,” the murder of John Lennon. In fiction, you’ll find a courtroom thriller (Kia Abdullah’s Take It Back), Swedish sleuthing (Helen Tursten’s Snow Drift), a space opera (Kristyn Merbeth’s Memoria), and more.
