Jeff: 我认为六月是图书出版的重要月份,涌现许多具有年度价值的商业文学作品。我从数千本书中挑选了10本有潜力的作品,并定义了“It Book”的标准,即人们需要阅读、有趣、质量好、有话题性且可能获奖的作品。当然,有些畅销书作家的新书销量可能超过我的所有推荐书的总和,但我们对此并不感兴趣,因为它们只是粉丝的活动,而非文学盛事。 Rebecca: 我觉得Cosby的书很难归类,它们是犯罪小说,既有悬疑又有惊悚元素。而Susan Choi的书可能会引起争议,但这种争议有助于宣传这本书。总的来说,我认为《The Girls Who Grew Big》更有优势,因为它的话题性更适合读书俱乐部,也可能获得奖项提名。
