#BookTok has become the new Tumblr for the book community. The good thing is that more people are reading, making everyone else interested.
Some books on #BookTok are hits like The Women and the sequel Reckless. However, the platform allows new authors to become popular and have word of mouth spread for their incredible books.
There are plenty of new books to check out from the #BookTok tag, and that’s why we’ll curate some good ones for you!
Check out the books currently trending on the platform so you can add them to your TBR!
Bonus Book of the Month Preview: ‘Death Masks’ by Jim Butcher
Over the years, Maude Garrett has been a fan of the Dresden Files by Jim Butcher. Maude always kept a place for Butcher in our book club because she loved the author.
Death Masks by Jim Butcher is our BONUS BOOK for August! We could not be more excited to dive into a fantasy book with some mystery.
The MBC community always has fun discussions in our discord and an in-depth analysis during our live book chat on Twitch!
If You Like ‘Recursion’ Add These To Your TBR!
Our BONUS BOOK OF THE MONTH for July was Recursion by Blake Crouch!
After reading Dark Matter, there’s no way we couldn’t read Recursion with our book club. Blake Crouch is an excellent sci-fi/mystery writer. His novels are complex and thought-provoking.
If you’re looking to fill the void with other books, we have the list for you!
Book of the Month: ‘The Fifth Season’ by N.K. Jemison
Maude Garrett has had The Fifth Season by N.K. Jemisin on her TBR for a very long time. The Broken Earth series is regarded as one of the best series in the fantasy genre. So, of course, we would cover it for our BOOK OF THE MONTH!
If Maude loves a series and our community enjoys it too, we always continue to dedicate a month to some of our favourites!
If you have been waiting for a good time to read The Fifth Season, join us in August for book club.
If You Like ‘Mirrored Heavens’ Add These To Your TBR!
Our BOOK OF THE MONTH is Mirrored Heavens by Rebecca Roanhorse!
We have followed the series for our book club since Maude Garrett started, so of course, we want to continue the series. It is one of the most unique epic fantasy series that is on the shelves right now. Roanhorse knows how to enchant readers with her worldbuilding and characters.
If you have read this series, here are some books we recommend that are quite similar!

We are deep into summer and the weather has been lovely for reading outside!
Whether you’re ready to pick up a romance or a thriller to keep you locked in near the beach. This summer, there’s something for everyone. Interestingly, those two genres are the main go-to’s during this season. Sometimes light and fun standalone books are the best for the summer. And it’s nice to read smaller books to help reach your reading goal!

Book of the Month: ‘Mirrored Heavens’ by Rebecca Roanhorse
Maude Garrett has been on the Rebecca Roanhorse train for a while and last year the community enjoyed Fevered Star. MBC has waited for the cover reveal of Mirrored Heavens and now we will continue the series for our Book Club in July!
If Maude loves a series and our community enjoys it too, we always continue to dedicate a month to some of our favourites!
Bonus Book of the Month Preview: ‘Recursion’ by Blake Crouch
Maude Garrett has been such a fan of Blake Crouch and has inspired many of our community members to read his novels. He is one of the sci-fi greats and for July we will be reading Recursion.
After reading Dark Matter, which is now a series on Apple TV Plus, you will want to read everything he has ever written. Crouch can break down complex ideas and have them toy with your reality. It’s brilliant writing, and Maude is thrilled to bring the world of Crouch to our book club.
If You Like ‘The Way of Kings’ Add These To Your TBR!
Our BOOK OF THE MONTH is The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson.
This is known as one of the best fantasy books of all time. It is a daunting book because of how thick it is, but over two months Maude Garrett and our wonderful community finished it together. It’s an accomplishment to read a book of this length that has been on everyone’s TBRs for years.
We have some recommendations if you have a void after reading The Way of Kings or are looking for something similar without picking this book up!
