Summer has officially arrived and that means its time for me to share the fantasy, science fiction, horror, romance, and mystery books I’m most excited for in the third quarter of 2024. These are specifically books that I’m planning to read, but if you want a bigger list of exciting new releases, check out my 2024 Book Release master list!

A great list! Especially looking forward to Gods Below! But I am surprised Gods of Mercy didn’t make the shortlist.
Also thanks for the heads up that Long Live Evil was pushed back. I was wondering why I hadn’t seen it yet 😅

I didn’t realize Long Live Evil got pushed back until I was working on this! Also, I may pick up Gods of Mercy, just not this summer.

Also I really hope that you like Night Ends with Fire better than I do, because it’s been really disappointing 😭
