Note: Book covers in the sections below are affiliate links with Amazon. It does not cost you any extra to purchase through these links, but I do earn a teensy tiny commission on the sale, which helps in the running of this site. 🙂
First of all, I need to rectify the fact that I somehow left off Melissa Jagears’s new release last week:

If you have any bookish news you would like to see in future editions of the Weekend Book Buzz, I’d love to hear from you! Have a great weekend 🙂
Thanks for highlighting my books!
You’re welcome! Although I just realised I forgot to include it in the new releases… 😕
Thanks for including Drew! I believe Dressed for Death is now $1.99, too. 😀
Always happy to include Drew. 🙂 The price was still showing $2.99 for me, but that’s even better if it’s dropped too. Crazy month for sales!
Thanks, Katie! It’s always great to hear about new books and book sales!
The book sales this month are phenomenal! My eyes bugged out when I saw them all (partly because I knew how long it would make this post! 😆)
Thanks for sharing about the giveaway for Someplace Familiar! 🙂
You’re welcome 🙂
