Reading books and discovering books are two very different hobbies. Because I talk so much about books, I am constantly being targeted by ads for books. Not to mention all the emails I receive about new releases and trending titles.
I have been making good progress in crossing titles off my TBR list lately, but I'm half convinced it's a never-ending collection of titles that I cannot hope to ever be able to read all of. When it comes time to pick something new to read, I can get a little overwhelmed with all the titles staring back at me, and I inevitably end up in the Kindle store...and the list just gets even longer.
In June, I shared a summer reading list (I've read three of those so far), but the last time I did a TBR post was in February (I've read 5 books from that list), so I figure it's about time to update you on the titles that have caught my eye lately.

Opaline, Martha, and Henry have been side characters in their own lives, but that all will change when they discover The Lost Bookshop in Dublin. The shop casts its spell, and these three strangers discover their own stories are just as extraordinary as the ones read in their favorite books.
This is supposed to be like a combination of The Echo of Old Books and The Lost Apothecary, two books that I enjoyed earlier this year.

As the Aether, Damian Dethridge has been responsible for maintaining the balance in the witch community for centuries. Now, his daughter Sabina's extraordinary abilities have drawn the unwanted attention of Morcant Thywell, an Arcane Devourer. Morcant hopes that by devouring Sabina's power, he'll achieve immortality. Unable to defeat the Devourer on his own, Damian enlists a group of Sentinels for help.
I've been very excited for this series. I've already read all of The Thorne Witches books and all of the available The Unlucky Charms books. Damien and Sabina are two of my favorite characters that I'm glad are finally getting their own story.
