One of last year’s major fiction debuts, A Discovery of Witches, currently on the NYT trade paperback best seller list, is getting renewed attention. It’s a COSTCO book pick for January and Variety reports that Warner Bros. has signed screenwriter David Auburn for the movie adaptation. In hardcover, the book spent 6 weeks on the NYT bestseller list and 9 more on the extended list.

It is the first in the All Souls Trilogy (book 2, Shadow of Night, is coming in July). Libraries that have it on order are already showing significant holds.
