Tuesday's Top 5

African Futurism, dystopia, and a long-awaited sequel. . .

As always, I’ve listed books releasing today alphabetically by author. You can read them in any order you like. . . however, since I highly recommend each book I include in these posts, do read them all. We need distraction in these trying times. The Bookshop.org links I include can be changed to support the bookstore of your choice. Perhaps, given the wildfires in California, you might like to support Book Soup, Diesel, Vroman’s, or any other terrific independent bookseller in the Los Angeles area.
