These are Amazon’s picks for best books this March
The Insider Picks team writes about stuff we think you'll like. Business Insider has affiliate partnerships, so we get a share of the revenue from your purchase.
Most people could stand to devote more time to reading. We all make room in our busy schedules for the latest seasons of our favorite TV shows, but we reserve too little time for books.
If you're looking for something to keep you occupied before bed or on your commute to work this February, we suggest checking out Amazon's Best Books of the Month, a section of the site wholly dedicated to new releases in literature and fiction, nonfiction, history, and more.
You'll find a spotlight pick (this month's is Mohsin Hamid's "Exit West") along with nine other books that Amazon's book editors loved for this month.
One of these recommendations might just inspire your next hardcover or Kindle purchase.

"Exit West" by Mohsin Hamid
AmazonTimely and original, Mohsin Hamid’s novel "Exit West" is the story of two young lovers who end up refugees when their home country descends into chaos. Instead of fleeing on foot, or by boat or plane, Nadia and Saheed hear about a mysterious door, a portal to a faraway place…(that is not Narnia, but has its own perils).
"One of the Boys" by Daniel Magariel
AmazonAfter an acrimonious divorce, a father and his two sons move to a cramped apartment in New Mexico, that feels ever more stifling as the father succumbs to his addictions. Harrowing and heartfelt, Magariel’s impressive debut novel is ultimately a survivor story.
"White Tears" by Hari Kunzru
AmazonTwo unlikely friends, bonded by a love of music, get drawn into a dangerous world when one of them pirates a song for his own purposes. Part mystery, party ghost story, "White Tears" deftly addresses thorny issues of white privilege and racism.
