BookBrowse Logo
Publishing This Week

Hello Readers,

This week we have 29 great new books publishing, including 10 debuts.

Marjan Kamali returns with The Lion Women of Tehran, "a touching portrait of courage and friendship" (Kirkus), and Liz Moore has a new book, The God of The Woods, "a compulsive readable novel that will appeal to fans of mysteries and historical fiction alike" (Booklist).

For debuts, we recommend checking out Masquerade by O.O. Sangoyomi: "richly detailed worldbuilding and inspiration from the Persephone myth all lend to a layered, immersive storyline" (Library Journal).

You'll find brief information on 10 titles below, and descriptions and reviews for all of them in our New This Week section. For more soon to publish books, check out BookBrowse's "What's New" section.

Enjoy!
