One of many Book Expo America round-ups comes from Scott McLemee at Inside Higher Ed (he links to a round-up of the round-ups as well). Two HUP books that caught his eye were John O'Malley's What Happened at Vatican II and Aviad Kleinberg's Seven Deadly Sins: A Very Partial List. The former fills an odd gap in the literature on Vatican II, providing a brief, readable introduction to the conference and its personalities, while in the latter, one of Israel's foremost public intellectuals offers a smart, deadpan take on those dreaded seven deadly sins.
