Category: Lists

Well, I thought I wasn’t going to compile a list of my anticipated September 2026 book releases for several reasons. One, it takes hours to curate this type of list, especially if a month has a lot of releases to sift through. Two, my blog views tanked a lot, which really detracts from my motivation to spend hours on a post (loathe as I am to admit it). And three, I’ve just been busy and I’m behind on my reading and reviewing. But Chris pointed out that these lists are nice to look back at for yourself, and I completely agree. So, the compilation of this list was driven purely by self-serving motivation. 😛

Anyway, September is a busy month for book releases. I found 21 books that looked really interesting to me, some of which I preordered already. (And some I already have in hand because I created this list halfway through September!) This time I have a good mix of fantasy, nonfiction, and some magical realism. It looks like a good month!

It’s the beginning of another month, which means it’s time for my anticipated August 2026 book releases! (And if you missed last month’s, you can catch up here with my July 2026 book releases list.) I’ve been rather busy with travel, so I scrambled to get this posted during a reasonable time (i.e., early in the month)! I’m surprised at how many upcoming August 2026 book releases interested me. Nearly all of the ones I picked this month are fiction with the exception of one nonfiction book.
