  1. Indeed, wowza!!! I’ve seen some buzz about the Elizabeth Papers and downloaded on my GF’s Kindle Unlimited. I loved the Love & Friendship (4.25 out of 5) movie. I read the book a couple of days later…alas 2.75 out of 5. All the movie lines are in it but I found it kinda tedious.

    1. I’m so interested in seeing Love and Friendship, Kirk! I’m real glad to hear you thought so highly of it! The closest theatre for me to see it is 2.5 hours away…don’t know if I’d be able to swing that. I’m interested in hearing what you think about The Elizabeth Papers! 😉 Happy reading!

  2. I have read 3 but am also now reading The Elizabeth Papers. Thanks again for the work you put into compiling these lists and sharing with us.

    1. Thank you, Sheila! I really appreciate your kind words! I’m really glad people enjoy the lists! Definitely inspires me to keep making them!

  3. I have read Darcy by Any Other Name, Miss Darcy’s Companion and have been reading Master Elizabeth Bennet as a WIP….which is not completed online.

    1. Huge thanks again, Sheila, for the wonderful review for MDC, I’m so happy you liked it!

      I loved ‘A Darcy by any other name’ and I can’t wait to read Lory’s, Jenetta’s and Caitlin’s new books and all the other ones waiting on my Kindle!!

  4. I always love your lists, Meredith. It is a big month for releases! Lots of great summer reading. I can’t wait for you to read “The Elizabeth Papers.” I feel like I’ve been holding the secret as long as Pemberley has!

    1. Thanks, Christina! It is a perfect setup for summer reads! 🙂 I’m really interested in The Elizabeth Papers! Looking forward to learning more when Jenetta comes to visit in a few days! 😉

  5. Just an amazing month is right! Love these lists as I get to see if there are any I missed that I want to read. Haven’t read any myself…yet. However, I so want to read ‘The Elizabeth Papers’! I may wait for the paperback on that though. Then, of course, Laura Hile’s book, ‘Darcy By Any Other Name’, Joana Starnes ‘Miss Darcy’s Companion’, Carrie Mollenkopf is an author I have never read and her latest book is of interest, but I do want to read the others before it. Oh and Lory Lilian’s new book too. That is just for starters. Oh and I can’t forget Cat Gardiner’s new book! Argh! Not enough time and still many on my wishlist and TBR list! I certainly wont run out of some wonderful reading though! Thank you!

    1. Great choices, Carole! I’m looking forward to reading many of the same! I love all the great things I’m hearing about all these new releases and am real happy for the authors! 😉 Hope you have a wonderful reading month!

  6. I love the lists as well – thanks for putting them out there for us! I have enjoyed the novel Darcy by Any Other Name very much… clever writing showing growth and interplay between different characters – discussion of pride from all angles. Darcy singing and hiding behind a couch… Cracked me up… I only stopped reading to go to see Love & Friendship, then immediately resumed reading – on the way home from the movie! I am grateful to the authors to give me summer reading to look forward to!

    1. Ooh! I love reading your praise for Darcy by Any Other Name! 🙂 Sounds so great! LOL! I love reading in the car – used to do it all the time as a kid! I echo your sentiments! Thank you, authors!

  7. I love your lists and appreciate all the trouble you go to pulling them together. So many books though! How am I supposed to read them all?!

  8. I’m curious about “The Elizabeth papers” (the cover is gorgeous ) and Darcy ‘ s magical message because it seems to be fun the fact of the Bennets being witches 🙂

  9. The Elizabeth Papers sound fascinating! I’ve just added them to my ‘ever growing’ TBR pile. I saw Love and Friendship by Whit Stillman in my local bookshop but it was very expensive and having read the comment by Kirk I’m glad I wasn’t tempted.

  10. The Elizabeth Papers are available on Kindle Unlimited. I just finished reading the book and loved it. It is not overly long but very enthralling. 5 stars

  11. I’ve read Joana Starnes and Jenetta James’ new releases already and loved them both! Looking forward to digging into Lory Lillian’s long-awaited follow up to Rainy Days!

    1. Thanks, Beau, so happy you liked MDC! I can’t wait to read Lory’s and Jenetta’s too, such treats! Laura Hile’s ‘A Darcy by any other name’ was a hoot, loved it, and there’s so much more. Aaaah, happy times for jaff fanatics 😀

    2. Awesome, Beau! I’m real excited by the buzz and all the positive things I’m hearing about these books! can’t wait to read them for myself!

  12. Thanks for another great list, Meredith! So happy to be on it! Hope you’ll like Miss Darcy’s Companion (the nice Amazon people just sent me an email to say they’ll deliver the paperback today, and then I’m off to the post office 🙂 ) Hope you’ll have a great month reading as many of the new releases as possible. I can’t wait to get my hands on some of them, such exciting premises!

    1. Thanks for checking out my list, Joana! I’m very excited about reading Miss Darcy’s Companion! Mr. Bingley is gigging a lot, so I have a lot of free time on my hands. I know most of it will be spent reading and reading some more! 😉

  13. Thanks for the list as always! I always look forward to them! So many good finds to add to the ever growing TBR list!

  14. Thank for the list. It’s always amazed how many new releases there are. Current I am reading Rainy Days, although I read it before I want to refresh my memory before I read Rainbow Promise.

  15. I was soooo very excited for the 4th book in Leenie Brown’s “heart” series. It is so very good and she tied it all up so nicely in the end. Definitely looking forward to reading Rainbow Promise.

  16. So many new books! I hope Lori Lilian’s new book comes out in paperback. She is one of my favorites and I love a hard copy- but, for now I will download and be grateful for kindle unlimited!

  17. I’m not picking favorites, but I’ve bought a couple of these. To manage my budget, I’ve been entering contests for some others. I’m intrigued by authors whose work I haven’t read yet! It’s always good to head in that direction, because many of these authors were WOWZA on their first novel, and we have to give a chance to those who could be the next WOWZA!
