September Book Releases

September brings a new season, with half the world getting a little warmer and the other cooling down. Luckily, September also brings some fantastic new releases to help ease the transition and we’ve found some great choices for you!

From the master himself, Stephen King will be releasing a new novel co-written with his son, Owen, about a world with no women. Then there’s the latest release from the talented Australian writer, Jay Kristoff, as well as highly anticipated works from young adult authors, Sarah J Maas and Marie Lu.

Looking for something a little magical? Brad Abraham’s Magicians Impossible is sure to be right up your alley. Or perhaps you’re after something different from a change? If so, Salman Rushdie’s latest novel might be a good book to pick up from your local bookstore, or The Space Between Words, which follows a young woman affected by the attacks in Paris.

Read on to discover some of our picks and tell us in the comments if there is a book coming out this month that you’re excited for!

Sleeping Beauties by Stephen King and Owen King, Tower of Dawn by Sarah J Maas, Moxie by Jennifer Mathieu, Magicians Impossible by Brad Abraham
Sleeping Beauties by Stephen King and Owen King | Goodreads

In a future so real and near it might be now, something happens when women go to sleep; they become shrouded in a cocoon-like gauze. If they are awakened, if the gauze wrapping their bodies is disturbed or violated, the women become feral and spectacularly violent; and while they sleep they go to another place. The men of our world are abandoned, left to their increasingly primal devices. One woman, however, the mysterious Evie, is immune to the blessing or curse of the sleeping disease. Is Evie a medical anomaly to be studied, or is she a demon who must be slain?

Tower of Dawn by Sarah J Maas | Goodreads

Chaol Westfall has always defined himself by his unwavering loyalty, his strength, and his position as the Captain of the Guard. But all of that has changed since the glass castle shattered, since his men were slaughtered, since the King of Adarlan spared him from a killing blow, but left his body broken. His only shot at recovery lies with the legendary healers of the Torre Cesme in Antica—the stronghold of the southern continent’s mighty empire. And with war looming over Dorian and Aelin back home, their survival might lie with Chaol and Nesryn convincing its rulers to ally with them.

Moxie by Jennifer Mathieu | Goodreads

Vivian Carter is fed up. Fed up with a school administration at her small-town Texas high school that thinks the football team can do no wrong.

She creates a feminist zine that she distributes anonymously to her classmates. She’s just blowing off steam, but other girls respond. As Viv forges friendships with other young women across the divides of cliques and popularity rankings, she realizes that what she has started is nothing short of a girl revolution.
