Ho ho ho! Merry Christmas!! You know what that means… the countdown to the new year has begun!!!
With so much festive activities going on this month, taking time to simply relax and read has become even more sacred. Why not make the most of that time by checking out these exciting new releases:
Not sure about you guys, but we simply cannot believe that there are only two months left in this year!! We know that as winter approaches with its cold winds and few hours of light, ’tis the season of reading slumps. Well, never fear! Below are some books coming out this month that might just keep those reading slumps away:
’56 days’ is the first book I have read that is set in this COVID-19 pandemic. In particular, this book puts a magnifying glass on the early days of the pandemic. Catherine Ryan Howard does a great job of capturing the uncertainty and apprehension of that time. While this could potentially be triggering for some readers, in my opinion, it helped make the story even more engaging and realistic.
At its very core, ‘The girl with the dragon tattoo’ is a book that is centred on crimes against women. This core theme is woven into a tale rife with financial intrigue, corporate crime, and a murder mystery. Was this overly ambitious for one book? To some extent, yes.
September really is a month bristling with learning and change. It is the month that marks the start of autumn, the return of students back to schools and the celebration of “Global Literacy Day.” So, what better way to start this season than to revisit your reading goals? Whether you need to decrease you target or you’ve already smashed it out of the park, below are new books coming out this month that may want to add to your list:
INTRO: As the 2020 Summer Olympics progressed in its celebration of athletes that are the very best at what they do, we couldn’t help but wonder what it would look like to see authors celebrated in a similar manner. That’s why, this month, we want to challenge YOU to show love to authors in any way you can.
Not sure where to start? You can begin by applauding the authors of the intriguing books below which are coming out this month:
Truth be told, the premise of a teenager resolving a five-year-old murder did not elicit much excitement from me. I expected ‘A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder’ to be unrealistic, predictable and chock-full of cliques. However, this book surprised me by smashing its way through my low expectations to a spot as one of my favourite reads this year.
Attention ladies and gents! It is my utter pleasure to detail my thoughts on this impressive novel called ‘The Murder on the links’. This mystery masterpiece, written by the Queen of Crime herself, is clearly well thought out and skillfully executed.
