Coming Soon: September

One of the best things I've done for my reading life is to start a "Book Release" calendar.  Every time I hear about a book that is coming soon--one that I'd like to read, I add it to the calendar. Then each month, I can see what's coming so I don't miss any new books!  I can't believe it is almost September and I can't believe how full my September Book Release calendar is!  September is going to be a great month for new books! Here are some books I am looking forward to:
