JULY 2026 [Edelweiss Collection | Spreadsheet] Summer brings big names and big print runs. Topping the list is Colson Whitehead’s Cool Machine (Doubleday), the final book in “The Harlem Trilogy.” The next Daniel Silva novel, Ransom (Harper), comes with a 300K-copy first printing, while both Sarah Beth Durst, Sea of Charms (Bramble), and Robinne Lee, Crash Into Me (St. Martin’s), net 350K. Rounding out the group of titles that will be everywhere, David Heska Wanbli Weiden offers Wisdom Corner (Ecco), which the publisher says is a sequel to Winter Counts but can be read as a stand-alone. Two buzzy memoirs of note come from authors who saw their novels adapted into lauded films. In Dad, Love, Me (Avid Reader), Matthew Quick, who penned The Silver Linings Playbook, talks about his own life and caring for his abusive father who is now enduring cognitive decline. Michael Cunningham, who wrote The Hours, turns his attention to nonfiction with Unsayable: A Life in Writing (Random), a work about the craft of writing.

Want some genre highlights for beaches, parks, backyards, and sofas? Evann Normandin’s pop fiction debut, The Good Parts (Grand Central), gets a 150K-copy first printing, has early Hollywood interest, and sold in a competitive auction in the U.S. and across 16 international territories. Told in alternating timelines, it is about a woman who has her memory erased and about the man who loves her, whether she remembers him or not. Jean Kwok moves from lit fic to romantasy with Dominion (Putnam), the first in an expected trilogy. Just one aspect of the plot is a violent contest where tygers select the humans they will allow to ride them—and kill the others. Thriller readers will welcome Lisa Scottoline’s newest, This Changes Everything (Grand Central), featuring small-town secrets, a murder, and two friends determined to find out what happened. Historical romance fans will thrill to the return of Rachel Griffiths with Just for the Season (Gallery), the whip-smart, emotional, and nuanced account of a woman determined to find her own life and the man who adores her and wants that for her too. Bestselling YA author Elizabeth Lim makes her adult debut with Fishbone Cinderella (Del Rey), a historical fantasy about families and secrets told across generations. For those in the mood for noir, Silvia Moreno-Garcia offers The Intrigue (Del Rey), about an easy con that turns complicated, set in 1940s Mexico. Lastly, readers in need of healing fiction will find a handful of choices this month: Song Yu-jeong’s The Memory Bookshop (Morrow; tr. from Korean by Shanna Tan) offers a store that allows readers to go back in time, while Michiko Aoyama, author of What You Are Looking For Is in the Library, returns with Matcha on Monday (Hanover Square; tr. from Japanese by E. Madison Shimoda), the sequel to Hot Chocolate on Thursday.

LJ’s new format for Prepub Alert allows the print magazine to include every title of note, in contrast with our previous practice of only printing selected categories. In addition to the individual listings, the accompanying spreadsheet is sortable and searchable by BISAC, date, author, title, and publisher. We have also created an Edelweiss collection to reference. It contains a wide range of additional content, including egalleys, plot summaries, author biographies, and key selling points. We invite you into a moment full of books and hope that, as you browse the abundant material on offer, you find great works to add to your collections.
