THE FORT BRAGG CARTEL by Seth Harp New this week: Confronting Evil: Assessing the Worst of the Worst is a nonfiction book by Bill O'Reilly and Josh Hammer that profiles history's most notorious figures and groups responsible for massive human suffering, framing evil as a deliberate choice rooted in Judeo-Christian ethics. Released on September 10, 2025, it serves as the second entry in O'Reilly's "Confronting" series, following Confronting the Presidents, and emphasizes the consequences of inaction in the face of moral wrongs. All the Way to the River is Elizabeth Gilbert's first nonfiction book in a decade—a raw, landmark memoir about her tumultuous love affair with musician and filmmaker Rayya Elias, exploring themes of addiction, codependency, grief, and ultimate liberation. Selected as an Oprah Winfrey Book Club pick and praised as "an absolute masterclass and truth-bomb" by Emma Gannon, it resonates with anyone captive to love, passion, or self-destructive patterns. Listening to the Law: Reflections on the Court and Constitution is a nonfiction book by Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett that blends memoir, procedural explanations of the Court's operations, and her originalist judicial philosophy, emphasizing how justices interpret the Constitution through close legal analysis while maintaining collegiality amid disagreements. Released on September 9, 2025, it aims to demystify the Court for the public, drawing on Barrett's experiences as a former law professor and judge, though critics note its studiously bland tone and avoidance of recent controversies like Roe v. Wade or affirmative action rulings. The Book of Sheen is Charlie Sheen’s first-ever memoir, released on 9 September 2025 and billed as a “heartfelt (and hilarious) account” of his rise, collapse and eight-year journey to sobriety. Spans Sheen’s childhood as Martin Sheen’s son, breakout film roles in Platoon and Wall Street, record-setting TV success on Two and a Half Men, and the addictions, HIV diagnosis and tabloid meltdowns that nearly ended his career. Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk shares a vision for America’s future embracing first principles, free markets, and small government. Kirk provides a roadmap on how to return to a free America, with an emphasis on reaching our youth and engaging them in the process. Shadow Cell is a gripping, first-hand memoir by a "tandem couple" of CIA spies who recount their high-stakes mission to rebuild a compromised intelligence network in a rival nation (code-named "Falcon") while hunting a mole within the agency. Drawing on their backgrounds in counterterrorism and innovative tradecraft, the Bustamantes pioneered a "terrorist cell"-style operation at the heart of the CIA, blending personal anecdotes of their romance, ethical dilemmas, and the shadowy realities of 21st-century espionage. Described as "the most modern spy memoir available to the public," it offers an unprecedented insider look at how intelligence crises are resolved, with some details redacted for security. American Kings: A Biography of the Quarterback chronicles how the NFL’s most glamorous position became a symbol of American success, pressure, and identity, weaving first-hand reporting with decades of locker-room access to legends and rising prospects. Art Work is a forthcoming nonfiction book by photographer and memoirist Sally Mann that explores the creative process through a blend of personal stories, practical advice, life lessons, and insights on risk-taking, rejection, and the artist's path, illustrated with her photographs, journal entries, and letters. Drawing on the frank tone of her bestselling memoir Hold Still, it examines themes like early promise, the role of luck and hard work, and navigating distractions in a creative life. A Fine Line Between Stupid and Clever is the first official, fully illustrated history of the cult-classic mockumentary This Is Spinal Tap, written by director Rob Reiner together with co-creators Christopher Guest, Michael McKean, and Harry Shearer.
