Happy Latinx Heritage Month, friends! We are about half-way through the month and I am picking up some amazing reads. Today I wanted to focus on books by Latine authors being released in this latter part of the year between September and December. Fall always seems to be such a busy time in publishing and I know many of these will end up getting overlooked, so I wanted to take a moment and make sure you know about all the newer releases by Latine authors as well as upcoming ones. Take a peek at these and be sure to add them to your TBR if you find any interesting. Note this is not an exhaustive list, so if you know of other book releases by Latine authors I should know about, I would love to hear about them in the comments. Covers linked to Goodreads or website if not available.
