Time to get ready for the weekend!
Kick up your feet and find a good place to read.
Sharing #booklove for your classroom or library.
Spotlighting a book or two because these books deserve the spotlight!
August and September were crazy months for book releases. While October calms down a little... I still recommend having your library hold lists open!

I try to include all of the books I'm aware of. I alway leave a few books off the list. If you notice something I'm missing, please include titles/authors in the comments so all of us know about the book!
I've tried to verify all publication dates with Goodreads, but changes can be made. Double check all publication dates with the publisher!
My holds list at the public library is out of control! I love it! Thanks for sharing these great titles!
