I'm starting to get caught up on my ARC list, unfortunately several of them are releasing on the same day. I was doing really well until June hit then I got a bit slumpy and behind schedule. All of my TBR is ARCs because I committed to having reviews posted by release day.
Books/Ebooks/ARCs
- The Point by John Dixon
- Netgalley recommended this to me because I reviewed something else, Nyxia I think. This looks really interesting. Future military cadets with superhuman powers, sounds amazing right? I'm also a sucker for a female hero. This comes out on August 7th.
- As Dust Dances by Samantha Young
- This is a follow on to Play On, but this standalone follows a different couple associated with the arts and music community. The synopsis promises a tragic ending to a successful music career, a sexy record exec, and Sam always writes amazing romances and dialogue between her characters. This comes out August 7th, I have and ARC and will be reading this next.
- These Rebel Waves by Sara Raasch
- I loved Raasch's Snow Like Ashes series and can't wait to read this. It also comes out August 7th. This promises pirates, magic, and rebellion. Sounds awesome!
- Ruin of Stars by Linsey Miller
- I've had the ARC of this forever. This is the sequel to Mask of Shadows, and follows a gender neutral assassin. Sal is now one of the Queen's elite assassins, but she also wants to find out what happened to her family. Book 1 was action packed and I'm looking forward to seeing where Sal's adventure takes us. This is out on August 28th.
There are a couple of more books I want to get to in August but lets get through these ones first. Jennifer L Armentrout's 1001 Dark Nights The Prince comes out in August as does Tijan's Crew. I'm hoping to get to those and maybe some challenge books.
Audiobooks
I'm still waiting on a bunch of these at the library, so we'll see what we get to this month. Most of these are holdovers from July,
- The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid
- Everyone keeps talking about how good this book is so I grabbed it on audio. I had no intentions of reading this, but some of my favorite reviewers loved this so I thought I'd take a chance.
- The Diviners by Libba Bray
- I keep hearing great things about this one as well. I already started this and so far it is really interesting. It started out a little slow, but I'm invested now. I'm liking the paranormal spin to things and
- Repeats from last month, still on the waiting list
- War Storm by Victoria Aveyard
- The Queen of Attolia by Megan Whalen Turner
- Circe by Madeline Miller
