Watch for the full December Texas Books Preview in the Sunday, November 29 issue of Lone Star Literary Life. Here's what to expect:

We’re still digesting the Thanksgiving feast as we eye the leftovers, football is blaring from the family room, and the forecast is chilly and damp. Obviously, it’s a good time to plan your gift list for online shopping—and we’ve got you. December Texas new releases include your choice of mysteries—cozy or decidedly not; secret British pigeons; fierce women; inspiration for fresh starts; meditation if your holiday season is a little frantic; German literature in translation; a whole posse of Westerns; gorgeous coffee-table volumes; poetry from a Texas laureate; sculptors of fantasy; show business; and Pancho Villa’s saddle.
