As hints of autumn appear in the air, September is going to be a busy month. I’m away visiting quite a few friends this month, which means lots of socialising and fun days out, but hopefully I’ll be able to catch up on reading during trains journeys.
I’ve got a couple of ARCs and new releases I want to get to this month, including:
There’s quite a mix of genres I’m hoping to pick up, including Kate Tempest’s new poetry anthology, and the web comic series Always Human. I was lucky enough to be sent copies of If Cats Disappeared and Running Upon the Wire by the wonderful people at Picador, so I definitely want to read and review them as soon as possible.
I’m also hoping to read Beneath the Citadel and Tempests and Slaughter before their respective September releases, but we’ll see how that goes. Too many books and too little time, as usual.
What are you hoping to read this month? Are there any releases you’re excited for?
I hope you enjoy your readings this month!. Tempests and Slaughter sounds super interesting and also has an amazing cover 😍
Thanks Sofii! It does sound really interesting – it’s high fantasy too, so right up my street!
Good luck!
I can’t wait for Tempests & Slaughter to come out, I’m desperate to read it.

Thanks Cora! I’m really excited to read it as it sounds like just my kind of story 😊
What’s the last picture of?? Interested in that!! Good luck with your September reads!
It’s the web comic Always Human! It’s a scifi story about two girls who fall in love, I think you’d like it 😁 Thanks Layla!
Ahh thank you!! 😊😊
You can find it on the Web Toon website! It’s really cute 😊
i missed out on beneath the citadel so i cant wait to hear what you think of it
I’m enjoying it so far but the pacing is really uneven. Some chapters are incredibly slow and very little happens, and others have much more action. Normally I don’t mind this too much, but the writing style lends itself to slowness, so the flashbacks and other naturally slower paced scenes are made to seem even slower! I’ll persevere though, as always.
I read one of the best new science fiction books I’ve read in a long time. It has two sequels I have to add to my reading, probably in October now, lol. It’s called “Contact: Book 1 of the Zaftan Troubles” by Hank Quense. Check out the author’s website to see the sequels: http://strangeworldspublishing.com/wp/ It’s about an advanced alien mining ship that wants to get resources on a planet they discover but the planet is already home to intelligent beings and the relations get more intense between the different races. It’s got cool characters and the sequels jump ahead in time so I can’t wait to see where they go from here!
Hey Johnny! Thanks for the great blurb. As you can probably tell, I had a lot of fun writing this series.
