Because of taking time for myself and enjoying a pleasant and relaxing vacation, I got to read more books, and not one of them disappointed me! It pays when you finally have time to read, which shows in #TheStoryGraph stats.

@bookstodon Notable new book releases in the U.S. for September 26, 2023. It took forever to wade through everything this week and try to narrow/compile the best list I could. Please be aware that there's also a lot of great teen, YA, and especially nonfiction released today.
Black River Orchard, Chuck Wendig. [An apple a day won't keep the horror away.] ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Furies, Margaret Atwood, et al. [Feminist tales aim to reclaim slurs used for centuries vs. strong independent female characters.]
Land of Milk and Honey, C Pam Zhang. [Examination of the seductive nature of consumption, in a clever allegory about Climate Change.]
The Golem of Brooklyn, Adam Mansbach. [Surprisingly funny and affecting story about faith, group identity, bigotry, and vengeance.]
People Collide, Isle McElroy. [Gender swap premise remade with sharp intelligence and thoughtful questions about sexuality/identity.]
And Then She Fell, Alicia Elliott. [First Nations new mother in Toronto …

People Collide, Isle McElroy. [Gender swap premise remade with sharp intelligence and thoughtful questions about sexuality/identity.]
And Then She Fell, Alicia Elliott. [First Nations new mother in Toronto feels her belonging and her sanity unraveling, and cannot determine how much she's being gaslit.]
The Caretaker, Ron Rash. [A small town, in which each character thinks they know what really matters, until dramatic events make them see more clearly.]
The Witches of Bone Hill, Ava Morgyn. [Dark twists and turns abound in this creepy house of horror thriller.]
Enlightened, Sachi Ediriweera. [Graphic novel about the origin of Buddhism: Siddhartha. Told through the prince on a journey.]
The Navigating Fox, Christopher Rowe. [Intriguing speculative/alt history fiction about the Roman Empire expanding into some of North America and, happily, all of the Indigenous Nations still thrive.]
Undiscovered, Gabriela Weiner, Julia Sanchez, translator. [Partially based on actual history, about the emotional
struggle to reconcile the colonial past with modern identity.]
Blackward, Lawrence Lindell. [Fantastic title, right? A graphic novel for all of us who felt like we didn't belong to the cool club in school, with special love for Black, queer, nerdy, "weird" folks.]
The Out Side: Trans and Nonbinary Comics, The Kao, ed. [I enjoyed this graphic novel. You rarely see comics about the experiences of coming out, collected all in one place.] ⭐⭐⭐⭐

The comic Calvin and Hobbes was one of my favorite things about growing up. When I discovered earlier this year that its creator, Bill Watterson, was coming out with a new book in the fall, I added it to my TBR immediately. Then I forgot about it because back in February, the fall seemed so far away.
The Mysteries by Bill Watterson and John Kascht comes out in less than a month, and I am STOKED. #Bookstodon #Books #GraphicNovels #Comics #CalvinAndHobbes @bookstodon https://app.thestorygraph.com/books/9bbde0d9-4c09-44dc-8cb8-a119267ec936

I dreamed that I leaned against a countertop at a public park and came away covered in blood. But then I found a container of fake blood and realized there was some sort of elaborate setup going on… and maybe I shouldn’t read so much #JunjiIto before bed.

The Tea Dragon Society by K. O'Neill was so cute! I struggle a bit with graphic novels because I’m not very visual and have to actively remember to look at the pictures, but I really enjoyed this one. This was the sweetest concept and such a cozy story. I love the idea of tea dragons! I showed them to my daughter, and we agree that we both want one.

Happy Friday! What #books are you #ReadingThisWeekend? Mine will be focused on some very dry technical reading for one class, and several titles from this stack of #GraphicNovels for another. #Bookstodon @bookstodon
A wonderful stack of #Queer #GraphicNovels and #Manga I've been really enjoying. This genre is new to me and I'm kicking myself for having waited so long to explore it. @bookstodon
