Here's what you'll be reading about in the books pages of GuideLive on Sunday.

Isabel Allende offers a fresh memoir with "The Sum of Our Days." (Check the blog Sunday for an excerpt.)

Richard Price returns to the mean streets of New York with "Lush Life." (Watch for an excerpt from that as well.)

The life and death of a heroic peacemaker are chronicled in "Chasing the Flame: Sergio Vieira de Mello and the Fight to Save the World," by Samantha Power.

The cultural influence of comic books gets a serious examination in "The Ten-Cent Plague: The Great Comic-Book Scare and How it Changed America," by David Hajdu.

And the latest enlistee into the army of Civil War books is "General Lee's Army: From Victory to Collapse," by Joseph Glatthaar.

Happy reading.

Fans left in the lurch when Valerie Bertinelli canceled her signing for Losing It last month will get a second chance to see her 7 p.m. April 24 at Border's, Preston Road at Royal Lane. Conveniently, her son Wolfgang and ex Eddie should be in town that night, when Van Halen has rescheduled its own gig at the AAC.
