April is finally here, and my TBR is already bursting at the seams. This month offers an incredible lineup across genres, making it nearly impossible to decide what to read first.
On a recent episode of the Professional Book Nerds (PBN) podcast, I spoke with PBN host Joe about some of my most anticipated new releases—from Gifted and Talented by Olivie Blake, a dark fantasy novel that explores sibling rivalry, to The Book Club for Troublesome Women by Marie Bostwick, a historical fiction that follows a group of women in the 1960s who discover there’s more to life than being the perfect housewife. And of course, as a romance reader, I can’t talk about April’s new releases without mentioning Emily Henry’s highly anticipated new novel, Great Big Beautiful Life!
With so many exciting new releases this month, my TBR tag on Libby is about to overflow. Explore the full list of April’s biggest books below and find your next read in the Libby app through your local library.
