Books Publishing Today
Today might not feel like a traditional Super Tuesday, but that doesn’t mean it’s quiet on the book front. While publishers have spread out their fall releases a bit more this year, there are still plenty of exciting new titles hitting shelves today.
Let’s dive in to some of the books I think you’ll enjoy.
The much-anticipated companion novel to Ali Hazelwood’s bestselling book, Bride. A Human hybrid and an Alpha Were claw against the bonds of fate.
I fell in love with Martha Well’s work after reading her breakout Sci-Fi Murderbot Diary series.
This follow up to her bestselling book the Witch King has earned several accolades and positive reviews, so I know I won’t be disappointed.
“Dahin, a beloved member of the Witch King's coterie, believes he has clues to the location of the Hierarchs' Well, and the Witch King Kai, along with his companions Ziede and Tahren, knowing there's something he isn't telling them, travel with him to the rebuilt university of Ancartre, which may be dangerously close to finding the Well itself.”
Caraval author, Stephanie Garber, does it again.
“Folklore 517: Local Legends and Urban Myths, taught by a woman called the Professor. Most students believe the Professor’s stories are just fiction, but Holland St. James has always been convinced that magic is real. When she tracks down a local legend named the Watch Man, who can supposedly tell you when you’ll die, the world finally makes sense. Except that the Watch Man tells her she will die at midnight tomorrow unless she finds an ancient object called the Alchemical Heart.”
A retelling of Cinderella from a queer gothic perspective.
“You think you know Ella's story: the ball, the magical shoes, the handsome prince.
You're halfway right, and all-the-way wrong.”
I came across a copy of this at my last book conference and immediately fell in love.
“Powerless meets Reign in this new historical romantasy from the New York Times bestselling authors of Night of the Witch.”
Zombies and romance don’t normally seem like they go together, but bestselling author Jeneva Rose makes it work.
“There's nothing like the undead to bring the living together in an action-packed and apocalyptically romantic genre-shattering novel by a #1 New York Times bestselling author.”
“When a rise in London's supernatural crime puts Fey society at risk of discovery, the Winter Council turns to an unlikely solution: Avery Hemlock, the changeling they sentenced to 500 Years of Nightmares. Inherently lacking social grace and missing approximately two centuries of world knowledge, Avery must find a way to acclimate and solve the case or lose her probationary freedom.”
“When a young girl goes missing, the ghosts of the past collide with her family’s secrets in a mesmerizing Native American Southern Gothic.”
“At times atmospheric and eerie, and at others all too real, Sister Creatures is about manufacturing resilience from nothing but the bonds that tie us together.”
“In this taut, deadly tale of survival and desperation, #1 New York Times bestselling author Freida McFadden explores how far one girl will go to save herself.”
“In this queer retelling of Nathaniel Hawthorne classic gothic story, Rappaccini’s Daughter, a young woman is lured to a lush estate owned by a botanist who might be hiding dark secrets.”
“The magical Quigley sisters return to bargain with fate once more in this follow-up to the “charming, uplifting, and utterly enchanting” (Lana Harper, New York Times bestselling author) national bestseller The Crescent Moon Tearoom.”
