What's New: September YA Releases & Giveaway!!

Fall is almost here!! Yaaaay! :D My absolute favorite season...the weather cools, the leaves get all gorgeous, the Halloween decor comes out, and the rest of the holidays are just around the corner. September gives us book lovers one more reason to celebrate---this month is EPIC for book releases. Seriously, insanely epic. Pay special attention to the 4th, 11th, 18th, and 24th---and try your best not to drool. ;)

So if you're new to Stories & Sweeties, here's a little run-down of this feature: at the start of each month, I do a little thing called the "What's New List & Giveaway" where you'll find a full list of the new releases in YA for the month, and entry to the giveaway. At the end of each month, one lucky winner will get to choose any new release as their prize!

First things first! The winner of August's giveaway was: Demitra ! Congratulations! :D

  3. I love fall too! My favorite time of year. I hope to visit my sisters in Ashville next month . . . it's the best place in America for the season:-) And it finally cools off enough in Florida during October to break out the fire pit at night and read some great books to my daughters.
