Happy Pride to everyone celebrating it!
Between Pride festivities, other summer festivals, time spent in nature, and the hot, humid days of summer, it feels a little hard to believe that autumn is only a few months away.
At this time of year, summer seems it will last forever…but all seasons end eventually.
I thought it would be interesting to look ahead at some books that have been scheduled to come out this autumn. There were more to add to this list than I thought there would be!
As much as I relish the long, sunny days of summer, there are things to look forward to as the temperatures drop and the days become terribly short, too.
Wednesday’s Child: Stories by Yiyun Li
Release Date: September 5
I Want to Read It Because: It sounds like this collection has a little bit of everything in it. I admire writers who can do that.
Furies by Margaret Atwood
Release Date: September 26
I Want to Read It Because: Ms. Atwood is a must-read author for me. I don’t necessarily like everything she writes, but I give it all a shot because of how often I do enjoy her work.
The Mysteries by Bill Watterson
Release Date: October 10
I Want to Read It Because: I was a huge fan of his Calvin & Hobbes comic strips back in the day and can’t wait to see what he’s come up with now.
Green Fuse Burning by Tiffany Morris
Release Date: October of this year (but no specific publication date has been chosen yet)
I Want to Read It Because: 1) I love eco horror, 2) the blurb sounds deliciously scary and possibly perfect for Halloween, and 3) I have not read many Indigenous authors recently and want to change that.
I read a short story once that was about a house and its inhabitant, I think it was a Lucy Woods one, so a full novel doing that sounds interesting. I’m off to look up Green Fuse Burning too.
I’ll try to find that Lucy Woods story. Do you remember what it was called?
Hmmm…the story of a house. Yes, I’ll see what else I can find out about North Woods.
Nice. 🙂
The story about the house sounds intriguing!
I’m glad you agree. 🙂
The Atwood book sounds interesting! Of hers, I’ve only read Haidmaid’s Tale, but I’ve mean meaning to try some more.
She’s written so many different types of stories. I hope you have fun exploring them.
I’m so excited for Lauren Groff’s new book, and North Woods sounds really good too😁
Sweet!
Hope you get to read all of them
Thank you. 🙂
I didn’t realize Margaret Atwood was publishing a new book. Adding it to my TBR. Thank you.
You’re welcome. Enjoy!
Bill Watterson has some new stuff coming out? Oh, I’ll have to look for that. I was a big Calvin & Hobbes fan when I was young, too.
My TTT is a REALLY long list today… https://bookwyrmknits.com/2023/06/27/top-ten-tuesday-most-anticipated-books-of-2023-part-2/
Yes, it sure was. I literally just left a comment over there. Hope you like Watterson’s new book.
Wow, that’s a lot of reading to keep you busy.
Here’s hoping! 🙂
The cover/title for You are My Sunshine has me intrigued! I hope you love these!
Thank you. 🙂
North Woods has such a unique premise. It will be interesting to see how that one reads.
So glad you think so. 🙂
The Mysteries sounds really fascinating.
I know, right? 🙂
The cover of The Vaster Wilds makes me want to read it, which is interesting because I’m not a huge fan of survival fiction.
Hope you enjoy these!
Thank you. Isn’t it funny how a great cover can pull you in like that?
Oooo, I haven’t heard of these but they sound intriguing
Thanks. 🙂
North Woods does sound intriguing! Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you!
Thanks. 🙂
You’ve tempted me with “North Woods” by Daniel Mason.
I hope you like it. 🙂
All are new to me which is wonderful! Enjoy your reading.
Thank you. 🙂
I hadn’t heard of a single one of these, and several look intriguing. My husband and I loved Calvin and Hobbes, too, so I’ll be sure to check his new book out.
Woohoo! Have fun.
I don’t have any of these books on my TTT list, but I’m intrigued by The Vaster Wilds. (I love survival fiction, too.)
May you enjoy it if you read it.
‘You are My Sunshine” and “Green Fuse Burning” sound perfect for spooky season!
🙂
These are all new to me, but some of them sound so interesting. I’m especially intrigued by The Mysteries, because the style is so different from his Calvin & Hobbes work. Enjoy all of these when you get to them (after making the most of the summer).
Thank you very much! I hope you like The Mysteries if you read it.
Hope you enjoy all of these, Lydia! I don’t think I recognize any… but some of these have perfectly SPOOKY cover art! I do love the bright green on that last design. 🙂 Thanks so much for visiting my website today.
You’re welcome, Rissi. 🙂
I do love that time of year. The Vast Wilds sounds interesting. I think I need more eco horror in my life too.
Fun! Hope you like it. Halloween is the best.
You’ve got some fantastic-sounding books to look forward to! Thanks for stopping by my blog earlier.

You’re welcome. And thanks. 🙂
Green Fuse Burning has such a gorgeous cover!!
Agreed!
The Margaret Atwood looks really interesting!
🙂
I hadn’t heard about any of these. Enjoy when they come out!
Thank you. 🙂
The horror books sound awesome. I’m looking forward to autumn. I’ll have more time and energy to read. 🙂
Woohoo!
The Vaster Wilds by Lauren Groff – I love a good survival story too.
Nice. 🙂
Great list and thanks for visiting my TTT!
You’re welcome.
The Mysteries looks amazing!! These all seem really intriguing — hope you find books that you love!
Thank you very much!
I’m a fan of survival fiction, too. I’ll have to check out the Groff book. I hadn’t heard of it before, so thanks for the heads-up! I hope you enjoy all these.
Happy TTT!

That’s neat, Susan. Hope you like the Geoff book. Happy TTT.
What a fabulous list. I didn’t know Bill Watterson had a book out. I was also a Calvin & Hobbes fan. Thanks for sharing.
You’re welcome. Happy reading!
The Margaret Atwood one sounds interesting! I’ve never read any of hers yet. I should change that. The Green Fuse Burning one also piqued my interest. I have no idea what “eco horror” is but I will be looking it up, hahaha.
Eco horror features natural forces that are the antagonists in that story. E.g. it could be an animal or plant or the weather itself. It’s a pretty diverse and fun genre if you like horror.
I hope you like Green Fuse Burning and Atwood’s stuff!
Fantastic list! I am curious about The Vaster Wilds and North Woods too.
Thank you. I hope you like both of them.
I’ve only read one Margaret Atwood book but I must read more!
She’s written so many good ones.
I didn’t realize that Margaret Atwood has something new out soon. I’ll have to check it out!
Happy reading!
Green Fuse Burning looks perfect for spooky season
Agreed. 🙂
I’m not familiar with any of these, gotta take notes this week. Happy reading! My TTT https://readwithstefani.com/mid-year-book-freak-out-tag-2023/
Thanks. I think it’s fun to be introduced to new books this way. 🙂
I hope you enjoy all these!
Thank you!
That Lauren Groff book sounds really good. It has been ages since I’ve read something from her so I’ll have to check that one out. 🙂
Hope you like it. 🙂
An interesting list. I still need to read Margaret Atwood. I particularly like the sound of North Woods.
Have a great week!
Thank you. Happy reading!
Autumn is my favorite time of year. Happy Reading!! 🙂
It’s such a pretty season!
I’m someone who also loves both seasons. Just when I start to think I can’t take more heat in the summer, blessed autumn arrives. Ha! I hope you enjoy all of these when you get to them, Lydia!
Thank you. Hope you get to have a really nice summer.
I love summer, but I’m also looking forward to autumn already 🙂 Hope you’ll love all of these!
Heh, I get that. Thanks.
Atwood books grow on me. I hated “Surfacing” on first reading, now think it’s a classic…
I’ve had similar experiences with other books. 🙂
Green Fuse Burning has a really interesting cover!
For sure. Very eye catching.
Green Fuse Burning has definitely piqued my interest! You Are My Sunshine and The Vaster Wilds also look really good. I hope you love these when you get to read them!
Thank you. Happy reading to you as well.
Woah the covers on all of these are sooo pretty!
Thanks for stopping by my blog!
You’re welcome. 🙂
