It’s the first new book Tuesday of the month – time to topple Mount TBR! Such an amazing selection of incredible books out today. First Tuesday is my favorite Tuesday because WOW what a huge assortment!
I have a few awesome books for you below and you can hear about several more great titles on this week’s episode of the All the Books! Amanda and I talked about a few amazing books we loved, includingChildren of Blood and Bone,Whiskey & Ribbons,Girls Burn Brighter, and more.
Sponsored by The Reluctant Fortune-Teller by Keziah Frost, new from Park Row Books.
At seventy-three years old, Norbert Zelenka’s life on the sidelines has left him broke and alone. But when three strong-willed seniors decide to make him their latest project, he reluctantly agrees to their scheme: establishing himself as the town’s fortune-teller. As Norbert’s lonesome world expands, he finally finds a place where he belongs. But disaster looms on the horizon. When a troubled young woman goes missing after a reading, Norbert must find a strength beyond the cards to bring her home safely. The Reluctant Fortune-Teller is a poignant reminder that we’re never too old to learn new tricks.
(And like with each megalist, I’m putting a next to the books that I have read and loved. There are soooo many more on this list that I can’t wait to read!)
