Welcome back to Hide Your Wallet, where we discuss the current week’s upcoming book releases that we can’t wait to read! There are lots of horror, sci-fi, and fantasy this week and I’m sensing a trend for the rest of October. For me, personally, my TBR pile is pretty packed this month. Which books are you excited for this week? Let us know in the comments!
RECOMMENDED: A Spindle Splintered by Alix E. Harrow is $2.99! This is a Kindle Daily deal today. Tara gave this one an A-:
I’m a gigantic sucker for retellings, whether they’re of fairy tales, myths, or classic novels, and A Spindle Splintered might be my favourite so far. Its take on a multiverse feels fresh because there are no superheroes, only badass girls saving themselves.
Paris Daillencourt Is About to Crumble by Alexis Hall is $3.99! This is book two in the Winner Bakes All series. I loved book one, but really struggled with Paris and his treatment of the love interest. What were your thoughts?
RECOMMEND: The Flatshare by Beth O’Leary is $2.99! We had a great guest review of this one and Lisa the Librarian gave it an A-:
It was romantic, sweet, hot, funny, and original – everything I’m looking for in a romance. I can definitely see myself rereading this in the not-too-distant future.
If you’re in the mood for a lovely, tender fantasy novel about belonging and one that feels more like a long, relaxing bath than a hot, intense shower will all of the fancy pressure and pulsating settings you can imagine, you’ll love this one. It’s a soothing pick for when you hope to take comfort in a book

Hey all! It’s Wednesday; can you believe it?! August is wrapping up and to that, I say, “Thank god!” I am over it and so ready for the fall seasons. I’m a cozy person by nature. I love to nest. I love mountains of blankets and pillows and burning an autumnal candle. Sure, yes, I could do that in whatever season I choose, but I don’t need the extra sweat that comes along with being … Continue reading Links: Stitching, Nora Roberts, & More→
All the Feels by Olivia Dade is $1.99! This is a contemporary romance and the second book in the Spoiler Alert series. It was also just recommended by Shana in our recent Rec League on Book-Long Grovels.
Bombshell by Sarah MacLean is $2.99! This is the first book in a new series. Elyse gave it a B-:
Objectively I can look at this book and say that some readers may have an issue with how much time spent on the girl-gang scenes versus the romance, but also ONE OF THEM SPECIALIZES IN EXPLOSIONS. I think part of this imbalance is to set up the rest of the series, but the gang’s quest for justice was very heisty and fun.
If you’re new to Hide Your Wallet, this is where we list new releases we’re pretty excited for in the coming month.

Rare Danger by Beverly Jenkins is 99c! This one was featured on a recent-ish Hide Your Wallet and is a romantic suspense story with a librarian main character. Keep in mind that this one is a novella. I’m not sure about the page count, but the audiobook is around 3 and a half hours.
