As we enter the end of the month, now is a great time to reflect on some of the month’s most talked-about and loved books. Some of these books were on our list of the most anticipated books of 2026 that we dropped at the top of the year, while others were in our monthly new book round-up. No matter the list they made it on to, they are books that are living up to the hype.
In these BIPOC releases, we get a tale of early 2000s Brooklyn by Xochitl Gonzalez, two timelines in a gothic Japan, a steamy romance with an artist, and more.
