It’s like I always say, “Sorry, I’m late!”

I intended to get this out for the beginning of July, but then my cat died and everything felt terrible for a while. Then my in-laws visited for a month and, you know, I mentally shut down when my routine is threatened. And not to complain, though I love to, it doesn’t help that we went from July 1st to September in like five minutes?? The passage of time is nonsense.

I have been reading, even if I’m not talking about it. And actually focusing on books I already own! So that’s a positive. The physical TBR must have gotten smaller by now? Maybe? The problem is, to read books I own instead of chasing down the shiniest new thing, I obviously have to buy books. Right? Right. This is just basic logic. Math. You can’t argue with math.

So here are my top picks for new releases coming out in the second half of 2024.

You can find my list for the first half of the year here.
