FWIW, here's what's new at your local library in fiction-related book displays:
Tough Guys -- books with 'manly' protagonists...for example, pretty much every Western novel, books by Robert B. Parker, Andrew Vachss, Joseph Wambaugh, etc.
Spain: a Land of Many Faces -- books set in or somehow connected with you-know-where (yes, this is a tie-in to our Lake Oswego Reads The Shadow of the Wind extravaganza)
and
Taylor Made -- books by authors with the last name Taylor :-)
-- featuring especially the books of the English novelist Elizabeth Taylor.
Elizabeth Taylor (née Coles; July 3, 1912 – November 19, 1975) was a popular English novelist and short story writer. Elizabeth Coles was born in Reading, Berkshire in 1912.

'The whole point is that writing has a pattern and life hasn't. Life is so untidy. Art is so short and life so long. It is not possible to have perfection in life but it is possible to have perfection in a novel.'
