My husband's next book, KINGS OF THE EARTH, was picked by Oprah for her summer reading list! It's in the July issue of O magazine. I'm sorry if this is too braggy, but I'm so excited my head's about to explode!

Book's out July 6.
 
It's becoming quite the hit already and it's not even officially released! Awesome! Congrats to Jon! :D
 
Very cool. You have some serious writing talent in your home.

Did you and your husband have kids named James and Joyce :lol:

I'll definitely check it out.
 
Thanks, everyone! It's amazing the power that Oprah has. Even my mom is impressed, which is pretty unusual.

Congrats....awesome news...O's list of summer readings is like equivilent to a great review in the NY Time's Book Review these days....

And yeah, we're hoping for that, too.
 
Do you know if it will be available on Kindle?

**edit- I checked on Amazon and found the answer to be yes. I look forward to downloading it!

Book launched yesterday, and the tour starts Friday, with quite a few northeast dates. Go here for the schedule. First stop is Northshire Books in Manchester, VT. Be great if some AZer's could come! I'll be there!

You can read an excerpt of the book here. Hope you enjoy it!
