It’s still pretty warm where I am in Virginia, so it’s hard to think October is just around the corner. This is especially true when I recall that the October list always seems to have that first wave of Christmas romances. I love me a romantic holiday tale, and I know I’ll be buying one or two to savor when the weather turns cold. What about you? What goodies does fall bring you?

I enjoy spending as much time as I can between the covers of a book, traveling through time and around the world. When I'm not having adventures with fictional characters, I'm an attorney in Virginia and I love just hanging out with my husband, little man, and the cat who rules our house.
I am awaiting three October releases: Mary Balogh “”Only Enchanting “” Next book in the Survivors’ Club
Ilona Andrews “” Burn for Me”” start of a new series
Nora Roberts “”Blood Magick”” Book 3 of the Cousins O’Dwyer.
all released on 28th October . I will read them any way but hope you are able to review some of them as I enjoy reading other people’s “”take”” on books.
I do have a question. A number of your reviewers were eagerly anticipating the latest Susan Elizabeth Phillips but thus far no review has appeared. Is it a dud?
My True Love Gave to Me, Anthology by Stephanie Perkins, Rainbow Rowell, David Levithan, Gayle Forman, Ally Carter, Holly Black, Kiersten White, Matt de la Peña, Myra McEntire, Laini Taylor, Jenny Han and Kelly Link. 10/14
Only Enchanting: a Survivors’ Club Novel by Mary Balogh, 10/28
Anne Stuart’s Never Marry a Viscount, Judith James’s The Highway Man, and Elizabeth Hoyt’s Darling Beast.
If nothing else, there are some interesting book covers
Anne Stuart and Betrayed By His Kiss by Amanda McCabe (very curious about the Italian location and characters).
