Boogie Down
Music on Circular Pieces of Plastic With A Small, Centered Hole
Ultra Dance 13 featuring remixes of Lady Gaga, Swedish Hose Mafia, Inna, [and other musicians you never heard of]. Singers sing frantic songs.
While listening to the music you can stare at the album's cover model in the accompanying booklet.
Born to Die by Lana Del Rey. Chanteuse sings atmospheric songs. I've read that Del Rey has been generating a lot of internet discussions over her abilities and previous musical efforts. I like a couple of the tunes.

Nora Roberts : Writing Machine
Fiction
Celebrity in Death by J.D. Robb. Standard Robb cover design. Why does the author bio not say Roberts is the author? There are paperback edition of Rob novels that say right on the cover "Nora Roberts writing as J.D. Robb".
The Technologists by Matthew Pearl. This guy's books do well. Boston, 1868...marshy... fiery cataclysm... sabotage... shocking... sensationalistic... ingenuity... irrepressible... small secret society... mastermind... studded... shimmer.
I always confuse Matthew Pearl with Daniel Pearl.
Sonoma Rose: an Elm Creek quilts novel by Jennifer Chiaverini. I think Chiaverini makes quilting events a major part of her book tours. Bill Crider should make Bigfoot conferences part of his book tours. Or Emu auctions. Or barbershop quartet conventions. Or noir-ish AARP meetings.
