Hi friends! It’s NEW QUARTER NEW RELEASES time again – my favorite week of each quarter! As 2018 winds to a close, we are looking at the great books (and covers!) coming out in September-December. SO MANY GOOD BOOKS. My TBR pile is whimpering from its storage unit on a separate planet. But i LOVE it. #bookwormproblems

TODAY: Contemporary Fiction (non-Amish & non-suspense)
Tuesday: Speculative/YA
Wednesday: Historical Fiction
Thursday: Amish Fiction
Friday: Mystery/Suspense

If you want to know more about each book, clicking on the covers will take you to that book’s Goodreads page.

I’m excited about all of these, but what am I most excited about from this collection?

  • allllll the Christmas reads because… CHRISTMAS!!! ♥
  • allllll the cowboy reads because… COWBOYS!!! ♥
  • specifically the Return of the Blackwell Brothers series from the Harlequin Heartwarming authors (The Rancher’s Rescue, The Rancher’s Redemption, The Rancher’s Fake Fiancee, The Rancher’s Homecoming)
  • and then alllll the other reads on this list because there are too many books that look SO GOOD & i can’t limit myself to just a couple and I’ll never get them all read but I’m ignoring that small detail!! 😉

  1. Oh, no! These posts should come with warnings! 😉 Trying not to add more of these to my TBR (but that Sarah Monzon novella cover is soooo cute…)

  2. Yes!!!!!!! I’ve had my notebook opened ALL day just hoping and praying this was coming!!!?? You are the best Carrie! Thank you thank you!!I totally agree with you on the favorite covers! I have some of these from Netgalley already so I need to go hunt down the rest! Thank you again Carrie!??

    AHHHH!!!!! What a wonderful list of upcoming books.
    I LOVE Denise Hunter’s newest covers, but I’m partial to the Blue Ridge Mountains, you know 😉

    Thanks so much, Carrie

  4. Connie Saunders

    What am I going to do? I want to read so many of these and this is just one category of your list! Thanks for sharing!

  5. Winnie Thomas

    I had a feeling I shouldn’t have opened that email! Now my TBR list has exploded exponentially! (And, yes, Carrie, that includes math problems–algebra or geometry or maybe even calculus!!! Maybe even simple addition and multiplication trying to add up how many of these I can fit into 24 hours/day!)

    I had a few of these on my radar already, but *whimper* I need to add a whole bunch more–and it’s only Monday!

    Seriously, though–thanks, Carrie, for all you do for us to keep our stacks of books careening madly out of control!! Hugs, my BFFF!!

  6. Patsy Curry

    I love these lists you put together! It is so much fun seeing the books that are soon coming out. I am most looking forward to the books from Pepper Basham, Liz Johnson, Kara Isaac and Susan May Warren. There are many others on your list I hope to read as well.

  7. Thank you so much for all the info regarding upcoming giveaways and all the great new books! Would love to win a print copy of any, especially of CF Romantic Suspense! Lual Krautter My email is: krautter12ATbresnanDOTnet

  8. Anytime there’s a new book coming from Kara, it’s a good thing! Of course, a new novel by Amy is of high anticipation too!! 🙂

  9. Gloria

    I am looking forward to too many of these books and have already gotten some from NetGalley. I am looking forward to books by Denise Hunter, Susie May, Melody Carlson, Allie Pleiter, Liz Johnson, Terri Blackstock and others here look great. Thanks, Carrie…I think.

    Ok, you want me to choose, there are just to many of them that I want to read. I had to get a list together and marked my TBR on Goodreads.

  12. Heartfelt thanks, Carrie, for including Christmas Love Year Round in your Fall 2018 Contemporary Fiction list. More importantly, thank you for bringing Christian fiction into the spotlight for readers.

  13. Andrea Stephens

    I’m most looking forward to Pepper Basham, Kara Isaac, Mikal Dawn, and Ruth Logan Herne’s books.
    I’m trying really hard to not want them all. Really, I am.

  14. I’m (most) looking forward to When You Look at Me and All Made Up.
    I also LOVE the cover on On Magnolia Lane.
    And then there’s something about Literarily For Keeps that just makes me want to read it…
    And I know from past experience that I have to read Cynthia Ruchti’s book….
