I'm always looking for new authors. I was very surprised to read Jenna Bush's new book. It is very interesting, compelling story. And her writing style is different, quite refreshing. Have any of you read her? How about any other new authors you have discovered recently ?

Yes, one of the twins. It is NOT a political book. It is about a child she met when Jenna Bush was in Africa. The child has aids. It is her story. Like I say, it is written in a very unique style. For no other reason, it is worth a look and quick read. The content (story about the girl) is also very compelling. I hope you will be able to get the book sometime.

I am not sure if I have heard or read of Jenna Bush's books.
An excellent author whose book I am reading now, is James A Michener.
He wrote "The Source" as well as many others.
The Source is a novel, historically accurate, based on Jewish history. I am, fascinated by it.
Here is a photo of James Michener

I haqve not read her book. I know there are a lot of people who write books. Some writers have "ghostwriters" or help writing them. Others are able to be in the right place at the right time like J.K. Rowling.
