Some of the literary treasures available this week:
* The Art of Racing in the Rain, by Garth Stein (Harper, $23.95). The story of a dog and his race-car-driver owner from the point of view of the dog. It's the new Starbucks-anointed book; does that mean we can take our dogs to Starbucks now?
* Bright Shiny Morning, by James Frey (Harper, $26.95). In James Frey's first, shall we say, official novel, he follows a variety of struggling Los Angeles residents. It's getting rave reviews ... well, at least until it's outed as a memoir.
* Stolen Innocence: My Story of Growing Up in a Polygamous Sect, Becoming a Teenage Bride, and Breaking Free of Warren Jeffs, by Elissa Wall and Lisa Pulitzer (Morrow, $25.95). Chronicles the story of a girl who was forced to marry her cousin at age 14. But with a subtitle that long, do we really need to read the book?
* Up Till Now: The Autobiography, by William Shatner and David Fisher (Thomas Dunne Books, $25.95) explores the life and career of the actor. Please, please, please: Behind-the-scenes at Boston Legal.
* Love the One You're With, by Emily Giffin (St. Martin's, $24.95). Follows a woman who questions her current marriage after meeting an old boyfriend.
