Here are ten books that I’m looking forward to reading this fall. If there isn’t a release date included, that title was already published earlier this month.

1. The Sunbearer Trials by Aiden Thomas

Why It Interests Me: It’s been a long time since I’ve read any high fantasy.

2. Self-Made Boys: A Great Gatsby Remix by Anna-Marie McLemore

Why It Interests Me: I was not a fan of The Great Gastby when I read it back in high school. Maybe I’ll like it more as a retelling? People’s tastes can change over time.

3. Sweet and Sour by Debbie Michiko Florence

Why It Interests Me: The friendship between the two main characters looks so sweet.

4. The Gathering Dark: An Anthology of Folk Horror edited by Tori Bovalino

Why It Interests Me: Can you believe that Halloween is less than six weeks away? I need to start thinking about what spooky stuff I should read for it.

5. Vanessa Jared’s Got a Man – A Novel by

Release Date: Today

Why It Interests Me: There’s nothing like cleansing your palette with a fluffy romance novel after reading something really scary if you ask me.

6. Soulmates by Susan Lee

Release Date: Today

Why It Interests Me: Don’t laugh, but I love puns in titles.

7. House of Hunger by Alexis Henderson

Release Date: September 27

Why It Interests Me: This is the perfect time of year to read about vampires. I mean, would Halloween really be Halloween without them?

8. Anne of Greenville by Mariko

Release Date: October 4

Why It Interests Me: As the editors of Long and Short Reviews have already noticed, I love new finding Anne of Green Gables retellings. Who knows? Maybe I’ll review this one for them after it comes out, too.

9. The Age of Goodbyes by Li Zi Shu, Y.Z. Chin (translator)

Release Date: November 8

Why It Interests Me: The blurb makes this sounds like a dense but ultimately rewarding read. It also reminded me of some stories from my ancestors that sometimes conflict with each other or with what the history records officially say. The truth can be rewritten so easily that it can be hard to tell what really happened in certain cases!

10. We Deserve Monuments by Jas Hammonds

Release Date: November 29

Why It Interests Me: Every single subplot in this book sounds intriguing to me, from the stress of switching schools to dealing with prejudice to having a seriously ill relative. Some of it reminds me of what I had to juggle alongside my studies when I was a teenager.  You never know what other people are quietly struggling with in life or what you might share in common with a stranger.

Here are the books that are scheduled to be published this winter that I’m most looking forward to reading.

1. Mindy Kim and the Yummy Seaweed Business (Mindy Kim, #1) by Lyla Lee

I know someone who got in trouble with their principal for selling unauthorized snacks at school. It will be interesting to see if the same thing happens to Mindy.

Publication Date: January 14

2. Little Gods by Meng Jin

There’s so much going on with this plot. Its themes relate to history, physics, grief, and so much more. I like it when writers do that.

Publication Date: January 14

3. Dark and Deepest Red by Anna-Marie McLemore

Publication Date: January 21

It’s always interesting to read two or more subplots set hundreds of years apart that share something important in common.

4. Numenia and the Hurricane: Inspired by a True Migration Story by Fiona Halliday

Publication Date: January 21

As soon as I heard this was based on a true story, I knew I had to read it even though I don’t normally like to read about boats being lost at sea. I can only hope it will have a happy ending!

5. Belle Révolte by Linsey Miller

Publication Date: February 4

Many sources indicate that CBT is the safest, most effective weight loss cheap viagra levitra on the market today. Erectile dysfunction is one of those issues which make life quite difficult cialis wholesale for a man.

So this is professional viagra cheap open for all the companies to make and sell hugely overpriced, noxious drugs that kill us, like Vioxx and others they’ve allowed onto the market that produce harmful and sometimes lethal side effects.

Publication Date: February 4

This sounds so heartwarming.

7. Wood, Wire, Wings: Emma Lilian Todd Invents an Airplane by Kirsten W. Larson

When I was a kid, I thought history class was boring and irrelevant to my life. If only I’d been taught about people like Emma Lilian Todd!

8. Docile by K.M. Szpara

Publication Date: March 3

The premise of this book scares me. Not only are characters enslaved, their memories and personalities are essentially wiped after it happens. How horrifying!

9. The Kingdom of Back by Marie Lu

Ms. Yu is a wonderful writer in general. The fact that she’s chosen to write about Mozart’s sister of all people only makes me more excited for this title.

Publication Date: March 3

10. When You Were Everything by Ashley Woodfolk

Publication Date: March 10

Ending a friendship can be so painful. We need more stories about the after effects of stuff like this, so I’m glad this one is on the way.

Here are a few of the many books I’m hoping to read this spring. The only way I could narrow it down to ten of them was if I only chose titles that are going to be published sometime between now and the summer solstice!

1. The Tradition by Jericho Brown

Release Date: April 2

Why do I always get the urge to read poetry in the spring? Does that happen to any of you as well? This collection’s focus on how history has repeated itself over and over again is grabbing my attention already.

2. When I Arrived at the Castle by Emily Carroll

Release Date: April 16

I’ve never read a gothic horror graphic novel before, but this one is going to make me break that streak. The thought of someone going to live in a castle without having any idea what dangers lurked there is quite interesting to me.

3. Cannonball by Kelsey Wroten

Release Date: April 30

It’s been my experience that a lot of people are hesitant to talk honestly about the things in their lives that aren’t going well, so I’m quite curious to see how this character broaches the topic of possibly having an unhealthy relationship with alcohol.

4. Becoming Dr. Seuss: Theodor Geisel and the Making of an American Imagination by Brian Jay Jones

Release Date: May 7

Honestly, who didn’t love Dr. Seuss when they were a kid? I know almost nothing about his personal life, so it’s probably going to be eye-opening to get to know one of my childhood heroes.

5. Ghosts of Gold Mountain: The Epic Story of the Chinese Who Built the Transcontinental Railroad by Gordon H. Chang

Release Date: May 7

Indeed, these ulcers look viagra viagra online quite unpleasing in appearance and the added side effects of imminent discomfort, pain and uneasiness adds to the scene.

Men who suffer from Erectile Dysfunction should go slowly, step by step. 1. have a peek at this pharmacy shop cialis on line I know very little about how the transcontinental railroad was built or why Chinese people made up such a large portion of the labor force for that project. It will be nice to have my questions about it answered.

6. Disappearing Earth by Julia Phillips

Release Date: May 14

After two young sisters are kidnapped, the various narrators in this book show all of the different ways the characters react to such a terrible event. I think this sounds like a very interesting premise!

7. Hybrida: Poems by Tina Chang

Release Date: May 14

I really like poetry in general. This collection about raising a multiracial child sounds like it’s going to be a good read.

8. Mind and Matter: A Life in Math and Football by John Urschel, with Louisa Thomas

The stereotype that jocks can’t be intelligent or interested in academics has always rubbed me the wrong way. I’m really looking forward to learning why Mr. Urschel decided to switch from playing football to earning his Ph.D. in mathematics.

Release Date: May 14

9. Once More We Saw Stars by Jayson Greene

Release Date: May 14

The author of this memoir lost his two-year-old daughter in a freak accident. After she died, he wrote what sounds like will be an amazing book about love, grief, and how to move on with your life when the unthinkable happens. It feels a little disrespectful to say I’m looking forward to reading this due to how heartbreaking the subject matter is, but I am curious to see what he’ll have to say.

10. The Lesson by Cadwell Turnbull

Release Date: June 18

As soon as I heard that this was about a race of super advanced aliens coming to Earth to perform some sort of research, I knew this was something I’d want to give a try.
