There are actually quite a few great releases coming out this month and I’m pretty much excited for them all! So let’s just get right into it!

---

Dread Nation by Justina Ireland

I actually had the pleasure of reading an ARC of this book and really enjoyed it! There’s zombies, diversity, great friendships, and plenty of action. I recommend checking it out for sure!

The Barrow Will Send What It May (Danielle Cain #2) by Margaret Killjoy
Release Date: April 3rd

This is actually the second novella in a series the first one being “The Lamb Will Slaughter The Lion” about a group of punks/wanderers that decide to hunt demons and spirits. It’s an unbelievably awesome series, I highly recommend giving it a try!

The Window by Amelia Brunskill
Release Date: April 3rd

This is one I’ve actually been really looking forward to, it’s a mystery/thriller about a girl whose twin just died in an accident and she starts unraveling the secrets that surround it.

Ace of Shades by Amanda Foody
Release Date: April 10th

The synopsis and cover definitely grab your attention and while I thought this was an enjoyable book set in a fantasy version of Las Vegas, it just wasn’t as good as it should have been.

You can read my full review here.

Circe by Madeline Miller
Release Date: April 10th

Seriously, this is probably the best book I’ll read all year. It’s worth all the hype and more I 100% recommend checking this book out! It’s about the witch goddess Circe and we follow her through her life as she encounters many other famous figures in Greek mythology.

Devils Unto Dust by Emma Berquist

Currently reading this one! It’s a western with zombies and so far it’s pretty damn good so once again be on the look out for my full review.

Isle of Blood and Stone by Makiia Lucier

Maps, mapmakers, riddles, and a mystery surrounding the disappearance of the kingdom’s two princes. Yeah…..sounds pretty great, I’m always a sucker for books featuring riddle themes.

Sky in the Deep by Adrienne Young

YA viking inspired fantasy! Woohoo! Once again I have an ARC I need to read but it sounds awesome!

---

Ash Princess by Laura Sebastian
Release Date: April 24th

I’m not sure how to summarize this one because there’s so much going on in the synopsis but it basically sounds like a super badass heroine in a very brutal YA fantasy world. Plus the cover is gorgeous….

Leah on the Offbeat (Creekwood #2) by Becky Albertalli

While I haven’t read “Simon vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda” yet I still think the sequel looks amazing. I really need to get my butt into gear here….
