Happy Tuesday! It’s the last release week in August. How are we feeling? Because I have to tell you, September is looking brutal for new releases. I personally had to whittle my preorders down to five books. This week, a highly anticipated release from a known bestseller, a historical romance, and shifters, make it onto our to-read lists. Which new releases made it onto your TBR piles? Let us know in the comments!
