24 of the Best New Books Coming Out This Winter

What would you do if you discovered the man you thought was your father wasn't really your father? Novelist and memoirist Dani Shapiro found herself in that position after taking a DNA test on a whim, and the result is documented in her beautiful memoir, Inheritance. As she puzzles through what she has learned, readers are taken on a journey that forces us to ask: what truly makes a family? Inheritance is both thrilling and fascinating — a nonfiction book that reads like a novel.
