Hello September – New Release Giveaway

HELLO SEPTEMBER!

Can you believe summer is coming to a close? Our weather is finally cooler and I even had my first cup of hot cocoa this morning. And, of course, that led to dreaming about cozying up with a book which led me to realize it’s time for another ‘Hello new month, what releases are in store for me?’ post. So here we go!

Because I recently discovered that a book’s success or failure is often determined by first month sales! (Though I bet preorders play into that as well.) Publishing houses look at those stats to determine whether they’ll add on to a series or accept the author’s next manuscript! All that literary goodness hanging in the balance but for a month’s worth of sales! (This was a cozy mystery author, but I imagine all traditional publishers use the same ‘system’.) So, I thought I should do my wee little bit to promote Christian Fiction.

By hosting a special “Hello — insert month” giveaway. It’s easy to play along. You just have to choose one of the September 2025 new releases on your TBR wishlist (must be Christian Fiction) and mention the title in a comment below (or email me at kavluvstoread AT yahoo DOT ca.) If your name is drawn, that September release is the book you will win and we’re one book count closer to keeping our fave authors in business.

  1. A Sea View Christmas by Julie Klassen. I really need to know what happened to Sarah! Our library is getting to where they don’t get Christmas books as much anymore, although I think this is the wrap ip to the series and it could be read anytime.

    1. Through Water and Stone is my top September pick! The ebook price on amazon has already been lowered from 18.99 to a very reasonable 9.99 so yay Kregel for keeping the old pricing pattern in place.

      Thanks for the giveaway and Happy Labor Day! tracey14567 at gmail dot com

        1. Thank you! It feels like a balmy island outside. It’ll get hot again, tho, by the weekend. The Fur Trader’s Lady was excellent!

    3. The Aviator’s Lady by Gabrielle Meyer. How she has time to Indie publish three books besides the two Time Crossing novels come out this year, I have no idea. 5 books in one year! And none of them short!

      1. Wow — I haven’t read any of these indie books yet. Wonder if maybe they were already written drafts that hadn’t been accepted by a publisher so she decided to indie them. Otherwise she’s a writing wizard! Good luck, Rachael!

    5. Oh, My it seems everyone wants to read the same book! Grin! Through Water and Stone by Karen Barnett

      I’ve read two other books. I adored The Women of Oakridge, a powerful novel. and Melody Carlson’s Christmas novella. Once Upon a Christmas Carol. Her books are always fun.

      Thanks as always for all you do!

      1. Thanks for the preview of The Women of Oakridge and Once Upon a Christmas. Always fun when someone has read an early copy and can vouch for upcoming books. And yes, Through Water and Stone is definitely the most popular choice today. Good luck, Nora!

    8. I can’t believe it is already September! We have had a cooler week, I don’t know if we are in “fake” fall or if fall is here to stay! I would love a chance for The Rules of Falling For You by Mollie Rushmeyer. cilydav at hotmail dot com Thanks Kav, for all you do to promote Christian fiction!!

    9. I can’t believe it’s September already! It’s been a chilly start here in Iowa. We normally still have all the heat and humidity for awhile. I’m absolutely loving open window days though. The cool fresh air is wonderful!

      I’m going with the popular pick- Through Water and Stone by Karen Barnett. I absolutely love how she infuses history into her novels. I always learn something and end up researching further once I’ve finished the book!
