Sponsored by Weird Little Robots by Carolyn Crimi and Corinna Luyken
Nine-year-old Penny Rose has just moved to a new town, and so far the robots she builds herself are her only company. But with just a bit of magic, everything changes: she becomes best friends with Lark, has the chance to join a secret science club, and discovers that her robots are alive. Penny Rose hardly remembers how lonely she used to feel. But then a fateful misstep forces her to choose between the best friend she’s always hoped for and the club she’s always dreamed of, and in the end it may be her beloved little robots that pay the price.
RABBIT, RABBIT. What a week to be alive! A new Susanna Clarke was announced; the cover for the second Gideon the Ninth book was released; I’m going to interview Erin Morgenstern and Tamsyn Muir later this week. This is the happiest I have been on a Monday (which is when I am writing this) in a while! However, I am always happy on Tuesdays, because it’s new release day! That means I have a great big list of titles coming out today, and you can hear about some of these and more amazing books on this week’s episode of the All the Books! Rebecca and I talked about Royal Holiday, The Library of the Unwritten, A Tall History of Sugar, and more.
(And like with each megalist, I’m putting a 
next to the books that I have had the chance to read and loved. It has been slow reading for me the last few months, so I haven’t read as many as I wished, but I did get to a few of today’s books. And there are soooo many more on this list that I can’t wait to read!)
