Welcome to Tuesday Potpourri, where we celebrate new book releases.
Today’s new release is The Kind Worth Saving, by Peter Swanson.
In this spectacularly devious novel by New York Times bestselling author Peter Swanson, a private eye starts to follow a possibly adulterous husband, but little does he know that the twisted trail will lead back to the woman who hired him
I am a fan of this author, so I’m eager to dive into this book.

Welcome to another Book Release Tuesday. I only downloaded one book today, but I am looking forward to it.
The Last To Vanish, by Megan Miranda, is calling to me.
Ten years ago, Abigail Lovett fell into a job she loves, managing The Passage Inn, a cozy, upscale resort nestled in the North Carolina mountain town of Cutter’s Pass. Cutter’s Pass is best known for its outdoor offerings—rafting and hiking, with access to the Appalachian trail by way of a gorgeous waterfall—and its mysterious history. As the book begins, the string of unsolved disappearances that has haunted the town is once again thrust into the spotlight when journalist Landon West, who was staying at the inn to investigate the story of the vanishing trail, then disappears himself.
Abby has sometimes felt like an outsider within the community, but she’s come to view Cutter’s Pass as her home. When Landon’s brother Trey shows up looking for answers, Abby can’t help but feel the town closing ranks. And she’s still on the outside. When she finds incriminating evidence that may bring them closer to the truth, Abby soon discovers how little she knows about her coworkers, neighbors, and even those closest to her.

Today I am flipping between some books on my Kindle, hoping to clear out some of those that are languishing there before I jump into the new books.

Welcome to another Tuesday Potpourri, and the celebration of new books that drop onto our shelves.
Today there weren’t a lot of new books for me to download, but I did find one that I have had my eye on for a while. I enjoy the author, Robyn Carr, and her new one sounds like my kind of read: A Family Affair.
***
Life’s biggest dilemmas can provide its sweetest rewards…
***
I feel ready to settle into a book about starting over when unexpected changes derail our lives. I’ve lived through a few of those experiences, so I’m eager to see how our characters solve these problems.
Meanwhile, I am also reading a NetGalley ARC: The Summer Place, by Jennifer Weiner. (Release Date – 5/10/22).
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of That Summer comes another heartfelt and unputdownable novel of family, secrets, and the ties that bind.

So that is my day so far. What does yours look like?

Good morning, and welcome to another Bookish Tuesday. I have noticed that I am downloading fewer books these days…I’m not sure why. But perhaps I am trying to avoid the old DNF that happens occasionally. So far this year, I have added sixteen books to my shelves, and I have only tossed one aside as a DNF! I have read and reviewed thirteen of them! So…a new pattern.
Today’s addition promises to be a good one, as I enjoy this author. Peter Swanson’s Nine Lives takes us to some interesting places.
***
From the New York Times bestselling author of Eight Perfect Murders comes the heart-pounding story of nine strangers who receive a cryptic list with their names on it—and then begin to die in highly unusual circumstances.
***
I am currently still reading The Paris Apartment, by Lucy Foley…and should probably finish it today. If I do not get distracted by shows and movies! Or rearranging things.

Welcome to another Book Release Tuesday! I have been waiting for this new book for weeks, it seems. And today I downloaded it!
My Darling Husband, by Kimberly Belle, is a heart-pounding thriller…telling the tale of a masked home invader that reveals the cracks in a marriage.
***
Currently I am reading a book that has been on my Kindle since December 2020! I rediscovered it during one of my Backlog Events. This Colleen Hoover book has been holding me hostage since I began reading it. Why did I leave it so long? Layla takes the reader through some ghostly moments, and I wasn’t sure where we would go from there.

As I add more books to my shelves, I snap a photo and celebrate with coffee. Especially on a Tuesday, when more new books are released.
Yesterday I received another mug. It is on the second shelf above, but here is a closeup:
Yes, I do have another mug with the same message…on my desk (below). You just can’t reiterate that message too many times! (I have been accused of being a hoarder because of my book collections, lol).
Now…on to new book releases! I downloaded two new books today.
The Request, by David Bell
When a man agrees to do a favor for a friend, he gets more than he bargained for as he becomes embroiled in a woman’s murder in this new thriller from the USA Today bestselling author of Layover.
***
Friends & Strangers, by J. Courtney Sullivan
An insightful, hilarious, and compulsively readable novel about a complicated friendship between two women who are at two very different stages in life, from the best-selling author of Maine and Saints for All Occasions (named one of the Washington Post‘s Ten Best Books of the Year and a New York Times Critics’ Pick).
***
Today I am continuing to read my ARC The Golden Cage, by Camilla Lackberg. It is more intense and gritty than I would have imagined from the title. It keeps me turning the pages! The book will be released on July 7.
An exhilarating new novel from a global superstar–a sexy, over-the-top psychological thriller that tells the story of the scorned wife of a billionaire and her delicious plot to get her revenge and bring him to his knees.

And while I was ordering bookish things, I just had to buy this tray. To add to my reading pleasure…and for snacks.

What does your Tuesday look like? New books? Great reading?
