“Simply stunning.”—Heidi Chiavaroli, award-winning author. Estranged sisters embark on a hiking trip on the tenth anniversary of their parents’ deaths in an attempt to reconnect. In the wilderness of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula they’ll face their deepest fears, question their most dearly held beliefs, and begin to see that perhaps the best way to move forward is the one way they had never considered.
Happy New Year, kittens! New Year’s Day is my second-favorite day of every year (after Daylight Savings in the fall, when we turn the clocks back and get an extra hour to read.) I love starting a new reading spreadsheet and seeing how many books I can read for the year! Related: Have you tried the Book Riot Reading Log? It’s what I use to keep track of what I read each year.
Today is the first Tuesday of 2021, and we’re hitting the ground running! There are a ton of books out today. You can hear about several new releases on this week’s episode of the All the Books! Danika and I discussed Outlawed, Black Buck, Happily Ever Afters, and more.
As with each first Tuesday megalist, I am putting a ❤️ next to the books that I have had the chance to read and loved. I did get to a few of today’s books, but there are still soooo many more on this list that I can’t wait to read!
Before we get to the books, I want to wish you a wonderful year of reading. I can’t wait to see what wonderful books we discover together this year. Now, on the books! – XO, Liberty
