eBooks of the week: Joe Calico and more

Calico Joe by John Grisham

From ebooks.com
Price Dh90
John Grisham is the master of the legal thriller, but he's also a baseball superfan, so this novel hones in on the world surrounding the sport. The story is about a fateful day in 1973 when, during a major league game, one baseball player hits another and that one action changes both of their lives forever. While there is baseball jargon that many won't understand, the story overall tackles the human condition.

Can We Still Be Friends by Alexandra Shulman

From Dh46
After 18 months of early starts and weekends of writing, Vogue UK's Editor-in-Chief Alexandra Shulman has released her first novel, and it's upmarket chick-lit. Set in the summer of 83, it revolves around three friends who've left uni and are ready to start their lives. There's Sal, the aspiring journo; Annie the domestic goddess and Kendra, a liberal free spirit - all spectrums covered.
