The August Indie Notables Fliers & Shelf-talkers

The August Indie Next List Notables flier, in PDF format [1], features jacket images, bibliographic information, and bookseller quotes for a great selection of titles to augment the month's Indie Next List selections [2]. Bookseller quotes are also currently available in an electronic file of Notables shelf-talkers [3].

The August Indie Notables feature a number of strong fiction titles (including two from Little Brown -- Say You're One of Them by Uwem Akpan and Undiscovered Country by Lin Enger, the brother of Leif Enger -- as well as nonfiction the likes of The Geography of Love: A Memoir by Glenda Burgess (Broadway) and mystery/suspense titles such as Don't Tell a Soul by David Rosenfelt (St. Martin's Minotaur), in a break from his Andy Carpenter series.

Notables titles are perfect choices to complement Next List selections in both window and in-store displays. And Notables shelf-talkers are ready-made (they simply need to be printed and cut) to draw attention to face-outs.

Booksellers with comments, questions, and suggestions for the Next List are encouraged to contact Dan Cullen, editor-in-chief of the Indie Next List, via e-mail [4].

Stores that need more copies of the Indie Next List fliers should e-mail ABA's Linda Ford at lindaf@bookweb.org [5].
