My Reading Recommendation Posts: Why I Don't Include Many Recent Releases


In my post introducing the Seasonal Reading Recommendations post, I mentioned that I don't include many recent releases in my recommendation lists. I wanted to make a post on why exactly this is.

I will be the first to admit that I am absolutely terrible at keeping up with release dates. I'm pretty sure I've mentioned this before here on my blog. I tend to only read in the history genre, and there's no list of upcoming releases that I can specifically for history books. And I mean nonfiction books. I can find upcoming release lists for historical fiction or historical romance (also fiction), but other than that, I have had absolutely no luck in finding an upcoming release list for historical nonfiction.

Unless I'm following the author (of which, I'm following 2 that I can think of), then I won't know about anything that's being released until they're already released. And usually, I learn about them almost a year later.

So if you know of an upcoming release list for history books specifically that is updated relatively frequently, I'd love it if you could send it my way.
