Everyone, there are so many good books coming out this month that it’s really quite unfair. We have over forty titles we’re excited for below, but here are a few others we know you’re all anxious to read: Wayward Son by Rainbow Rowell is releasing! (My roommate splurged on a life-sized cardboard cutout of Baz, btw.) Margaret Atwood as written a sequel to The Handmaid’s Tale called The Testaments.

I felt like this was full of Shakespearean drama, and scheming families, and hot sex, and gorgeous clothes, but also some important things to say about how the world is functioning. There’s a lot going on, though, and the ending a tad rushed.
It’s April, everyone! And no, the sheer number of squee-worthy books coming out this month is not an April Fool’s joke. Let’s all have a moment of silence of our budgets.

CarrieS: My super short review is, As a novel, this book is great, but as a romance novel, it’s not as good because the hero is not terribly convincing as a character. It’s interesting that we don’t get his point of view directly. That would have helped, because his character swings back and forth a lot between angel and jerk.
RHG: Yeah, it’s…. it’s kind of old school in that way? We get very little of the hero’s POV and it’s all about her. And yet decidedly neo-classic in that the trauma the heroine goes through has actual lasting consequences that aren’t fixed by magic wang.
No Limits by Lori Foster is $1.99! This is a sports contemporary romance and the first book in the Ultimate series. And whew…look at that cover! The hero is an MMA fighter who rescued the heroine a few years back, so there definitely seems to be a suspense element to the book too. Many readers found the book to have a good blend of romance and action, though a few found the book’s resolutions to be wrapped up a little too quickly. It has a 3.9-star rating on GR.
