10 best books of February: the Monitor's picks

Of the new books coming in February, here are the 10 that ranked highest with the Monitor's book critics.

2. "Code Name: Johnny Walker," by Johnny Walker with Jim DeFelice

For those who think they’ve heard the last word on the Iraq War, Code Name: Johnny Walker is an eye-opener. “Johnny,” the memoir’s author (with Jim DeFelice), is an Iraqi who spent nearly six years as an interpreter for US Navy SEALs during the worst of the fighting there. Johnny is a man of action; he fights alongside his American brothers and uses his wits to protect them while apprehending perpetrators of unspeakable violence. The drama is riveting, as are Johnny’s insights on the war, America, and Iraq. You can see the Monitor's full review of "Code Name: Johnny Walker" here.
