A rare crop of new books that’s mostly fiction! And some very intriguing titles, too, from authors I’m already familiar with and also some new-to-me authors. I think I have a lot of great reading ahead of me…!
Featuring: David Baldacci, Hallie Cantor, Anna Dorn, Patricia Finn, Bruce Holsinger, John Niven, Claire North, Matthew Pearl, Casey Scieszka, Shea Serrano, Oren Weisfeld, Don Winslow
Another nice mix of new books received. I’ve already read a couple of these, and hope to get the rest read ASAP — the summer months are always good for catching up, because I generally don’t like to go outside when it’s gross, hot, and humid. (Best laid plans, and all…)
Featuring: Stacey Abrams, Lee Cole, S. A. Cosby, Mark Lee Gardner, Sophie Gilbert, Travis Kennedy, Melissa O’Connor, Riley Sager, John Seabrook, Adrian Tchaikovsky, Christopher J. Yates
Featuring: Jackson Ford, Phoebe Greenwood, James Logan, Alex Pavesi, Daniel Pollack-Pelzner, Taylor Jenkins Reid, Charlotte Runcie, Eric Smith & Andrew Bricker, Maggie Stiefvater, Vladislav Zubok

Still trying to get caught up. I now have a fair few reviews that need to be written and published. Hoping to get on top of the back-log over the next week or so. In the meantime, here are some more new books!
Featuring: Kate Belli, Cory Doctorow, Mark Edwards, Kit Frick, Lee Goldberg, Holly James, Alissa Lee, Peter Mann, George Packer, K. J. Parker, Clay Risen, and Seamus Sullivan
An insanely busy first quarter (well, first third really), this year. This means I’ve fallen behind (again) on my New Books posts, so I’ll be posting another next week in an attempt to get caught up. A great selection came in. Any on your radar? Read any already?

There was another flurry of new books over the holiday period (review copies, purchases, and Christmas presents), so I actually have enough books already for two of these posts… I’ll publish the second one in a week or so.
Did you get any good books over the holidays? Anything in particular on your radar for 2025? Feel free to share in the comments.
