It’s a new month and that means there are plenty of new books to get excited about! From heart-warming romances to thrilling mysteries, there’s something for everyone. Here are some of the upcoming releases that I’m particularly excited about:

Our Share of Night by Mariana Enriquez, translated by Megan McDowell. This story follows a young father and son on a road trip, devastated by the death of the wife and mother they both loved. As they travel to her ancestral home, they must confront a terrifying legacy she has bequeathed: a family called the Order that commits unspeakable acts in search of immortality. This sounds like an intriguing and suspenseful read, and it’s set to be released on 2/7/2023.

The Love Scribe by Amy Meyerson is the perfect read for Valentine’s Day. It’s a story about a woman who writes stories that help others fall in love. If you’re looking for a sweet and romantic read, this one is for you! It’s set to be released on 2/7/2023.

Of Manners & Murder by Anastasia Hastings is a gothic mystery with a dash of romance. It follows Violet, who takes on the role of the best-loved agony aunt in Britain in 1885. But she’s not only going to receive letters from desperate readers – she may make some enemies along the way, and murder ensues. This one is set to be released on 2/7/2023.

The Spite House by Johnny Compton is a gothic thriller about a father on the run with his two daughters. In order to remain untraceable, the father accepts a job at the most haunted house in Texas. This one is set in the Hill Country, which is where I live, so I’m particularly excited about this novel. It’s set to be released on 2/7/2023.

The Sun Walks Down by Fiona McFarlane is set in September 1883 in a small town in the South Australian outback. Six-year-old Denny Wallace has gone missing during a dust storm, and the entire community is caught up in the search for him. This one is set to be released on 2/14/2023.

It’s One of Us by J.T. Ellison is a thriller about career woman Olivia Bender who desperately wants to be a mother. Fertility treatments and IVF keep failing, and just when she feels she’s at her lowest point, the police deliver shocking news to Olivia and her husband, Park. DNA results show that Park’s son is a suspect in a murder investigation – how can that be? This one is set to be released on 2/21/2023.

These all sound like fantastic reads! I’m especially looking forward to The Love Scribe for Valentine’s Day, but all of these books have me intrigued. Which ones are you most excited for?
