Hey Y’all! Can you believe that December is here ALREADY?! *Insert shocked face emoji here* This year has felt like it has both dragged and also sped by…it’s so weird how time does that!

So this month doesn’t seem like it’s a HUGE pub month which is lightweight a relief because January looks like its going to ruin ALL of our bank accounts. Here are the books that I know are coming out this month:
- Surviving Home by Katerina Canyon 12/1

Are there any books that you’re excited about for this month? Is there any books that I left out that are coming out by Authors Of Color this month or if any of these dates have changed?!
