August releases worth the hype

As temperatures continue to soar, I’ve found myself seeking relaxing indoor activities like jigsaw puzzles, board games, and of course reading. If you, like me, are scrounging around for titles to add to your TBR, I’m sure you’ll find something to love on this list of anticipated August releases.

Need a slow-burn romance to get you through to cuffing season? The latest release from Dana Hawkins, Forced Proximity, is here to fill that gap. Or maybe you’re looking for a new dragon-filled romantasy – in which case, could I recommend Rider of Dragons by A.T. Qureshi?

Mystery readers are sure to delight in Bella Mackie’s Claws Out!, which has been described as “wicked fun. A darkly delicious mystery and sharply observed satire in one wildly entertaining package.” And those who want a bit more suspense should pick up the latest title from an author Frieda McFadden said will hook you on page one, The Edge of the Woods by Sarah Alderson.

No matter your mood, this month’s featured titles list is sure to please. Once you’ve perused the list, check the Libby app for title availability through your local library.
