Hellllooooo Summer and all the lazy days of lounging and reading ahead! Time to stock pile our TBRs with the newest releases so let’s take a look at what’s coming out in July, August and September 2026!
Here’s how this week’s giveaway works: You recommend CHRISTIAN FICTION genre specific titles with release dates in July, August or September 2026 (up to 3 suggestions per genre day) and you have a chance to win one of your recommendations! BUT it’s a little more complicated than that so be sure to read ALL the details before entering.
IMPORTANT TO NOTE: These giveaways are available in paperback or ebook format to US and Canadian readers. Ebooks available internationally if you have a .com kindle account (US Amazon)
Historical Fiction Giveaway Day
To be entered in the draw just leave a comment (or 3) below, including the title(s) of the books in the Historical Fiction genre you would like to win.
Historical Fiction – a full length story or novella or collection of novellas set any time period before 1980. May cross genres such as YA, Suspense, Amish etc and may include dual timelines.
How does it work?
Easy Peasy! Make recommendations in the comment section and if you win, you win the book you suggested.
BUT YOU GOTTA FOLLOW THE RULES
Publication date must be July, August or September 2026
Each day is genre specific, so only submit titles from that genre
Christian Fiction books only please!
You can offer up to three suggestions per genre day BUT they need to be made in 3 separate comments (easier for me to keep track of.)
No email entries this time round since WP comments are working
OF SPECIAL NOTE: IF YOU HAVEN’T COMMENTED ON THIS BLOG BEFORE, YOUR FIRST COMMENT WON’T APPEAR UNTIL I APPROVE IT. AFTER THAT YOUR COMMENTS WILL POST AUTOMATICALLY.
Entrants must submit their own selections (no piggybacking on someone else’s log in.)
It’s helpful to include your email (using AT and DOT instead of @ and . to protect yourself from spammers) but you only need to add it to one of your comments per day. If you choose not to include your email then it’s up to you to contact me if you are a winner.
WINNERS ANNOUNCED ON
Sunday July 12 2026
(You can enter any of the giveaways up until noon EST on Saturday July 11 2026 Winners will be announced the following day.)
1 The Light of Stars by Jenelle Hovde It seems the historical fiction genre is a little sparse this quarter, but there are a few I want to read. This one sounds intriguing!

I found an INDIE author that is new to me (but I *know* her from blogging), and she is releasing a historical fiction in July: Astonished: A Hawthorn Asylum Novel by Kelsey Gietl. It sounds fascinating to me (and check out the cover!). cilydav at hotmail dot com

Twelve Days and Twelfth Night: A Historical World War II Holiday Novella by Sarah Sundlin. How is the comfort/temp of the new place? And street noise? Hoping you are very pleased.
LikeLiked by 1 person
Sorry for the WP glitches. There never seems to be a rhyme or reason to it acting up. Love that Sarah Sundin is releasing a WWII Christmas novella. We had crazy hot temp – well over 100 when I moved and for a few days afterwards and the apartment was hot BUT when I was just sitting with the fan on it was fine. Definitely cooler than my house was. I’m facing north so that helps keep things cooler. And funny fact — way less street noise even though I’m in Centretown. It’s a beautiful area with multiple parks, a pond and canal and tons of gardens. Beautiful walks no matter which way I go. Good luck, CC!
