FOUR TOP PICKS:

True You: A Journey to Finding and Loving Yourself

By Janet Jackson (Feb. 8)

It's "part biography and part self-help," Popoff says, and "will appeal to Jackson's music fans as well as to readers who are curious about her both as a celebrity and sister of Michael Jackson."

Bossypants

By Tina Fey (April 5)

Contending that "you're no one until someone calls you bossy," it should be fun and appeal to the TV writer/star's "bookish fans," says Nissley. "It's still her moment."

Three Seconds

By Anders Roslund and Börge Hellström (on sale this week)

The book is "dark, suspenseful and more riveting than any thriller at the local cineplex," says Bostelman. She calls the authors "heirs apparent to Stieg Larsson and Henning Mankell as the masters of Scandinavian crime."

The Tiger's Wife

By Tea Obreht (March 8)

"The debut novel we're all excited about," says Jennings. Obreht "deftly uses the history and conflict of the Balkans" to tell a "tale filled with metaphor and mystery."
