Summer 2010 Okra Picks
It’s a hundred degrees in the shade out there—why, it must be Okra Season! Southern Indie Booksellers have a selected a basket full of books for the Summer Okra Picks —great southern books, fresh off the vine. From backseats to blueberries, freedom to folklore (and good Southern food!), these titles highlight just what it is that makes Southern literature great. All the books have the following things in common: 1) They are Southern in nature. 2) They are 2010 Summer releases and 3) There is a SIBA member Bookstore who is really excited about the book. Southern booksellers love their Southern authors—we grow good books!
