Steph's Spring Book Preview, 2020 Edition
New Year, Same Writing Blog.... though this year, I'm getting a jump on my Spring Book Preview.
(I'm also changing up author interviews and working a few new things, when/if things ever calm down....)
January is a busy, busy month this go-round. Miraculum comes out in paperback TOMORROW and on January 28th, I'll be wrapping up my Southern Crime trilogy when Holding Smoke hits shelves. So, in the spirit of my own book releases (and loving books and authors and all that jazz) here we go! Let's get those pre-orders clicking and TBR lists humming. Here are the books I'm most excited about for the first half of 2020, along with reader suggestions, as always.
Cheers and Happy Reading!!!
