Planned Reading for September

Happy September! I love September. It's my favourite month. It almost feels like a time when everything is new and we're starting afresh, no doubt due to the fact that the school year here starts in September. My birthday is also in September, so for me it's literally the time a new year begins.

Well, although this post is entitled 'Planned Reading' I'm not sure how much reading I will have time for this month, because I have such a full and busy month planned here with blog visitors! Let me tell you about some of the people I have lined up to visit this month:

Firstly, I'll be welcoming Maria Grace back to the blog. Maria has a new book out, A Less Agreeable Man. This is the third book in the Queen of Rosings Park series, this time focusing on Mary (Hurrah! I love a Mary story). I am hoping Maria will be able to drop by when her post is scheduled, but she's currently caught up with hurricane Harvey and her book has launched while she has been offline, so she hasn't been able to join in the party so far.

L L Diamond will also be dropping by to tell us more about her new book, Particular Attachments. This is a sequel to Particular Intentions and is a Georgiana book. It's currently available for pre-order at a special price. Isn't the cover gorgeous!

Emily C A Snyder is also due to pay us a visit. Emily is re-releasing Nachsturm Castle: A Gothic Austen Novel. This is a follow up to Northanger Abbey, with gothic tones, and from the blurb, enough excitement to satisfy even the imagination of romantic Catherine Morland. This one is also available to pre-order.

Sophie Turner has released a version of Pride & Prejudice which is as close as possible to the version that readers would have when it was first published back in 1813. It's available to buy now, but I know that Sophie is hoping that people will be able to pick it up for free. Amazon UK hasn't yet price-matched other ebook retailers, but perhaps Amazon elsewhere has. It's also available on other platforms. Sophie will be visiting us here.

Elizabeth Adams, author of The Houseguest and Unwilling, will be dropping by to tell us all about her upcoming book, which is a Pride & Prejudice variation.

The blog tour for Karen M Cox's modern take on Emma drops by. I Could Write a Book takes Emma to the 1970s. On my stop on the tour I'll be sharing my review of the story, so this is one I definitely plan to read this month.

I may have another visitor late on in the month too, we shall see!

I hope you will be able to join me for some or all of these blog posts! I am not sure what else I will be reading, I have a list as long as my arm of things I want to read.

Have you recently read anything that you'd like to recommend? What are you going to read this month? I hope you have some good reading ahead :)
