Anticipated books of summer 2019 part 2 - July and August

There are so many great books coming out this summer that I had to split my anticipated books of summer into two separate posts.  If you missed it, I already covered  the books I was excited about which were coming out in May and June, so today I'll tell you about books coming out in July and August.  (And I'm happy to say that since I wrote that first post, I've read 6 of the 12 books I listed there - not too shabby!)  So if your summer reading list isn't already long enough, here are some more books for your consideration!

From the Top 10 Archives - Jen's 10 Favorite Books of 2013

Since I started this blog, I've been periodically looking back at my old top 10 lists from years past and seeing how I feel about them today and other random things about them - and I'm getting close to catching up!  If you don't remember the details, I've kept lists each year of my ten favorite books all the way back to 1999.  In the early days I only shared the list with a small group, but over the years the distribution list got larger, plus I started sharing first on Facebook and then on this blog.  The lists comprise books I read in a particular year, not necessarily books published that year.

Here's my list from 2013, in alphabetical order by author's last name:

Life After Life - Kate Atkinson
Bitterblue - Kristen Cashore
Wonder - R.J. Palacio
Night Film - Marisha Pessl
Eleanor & Park - Rainbow Rowell
The Song Remains the Same - Allison Winn Scotch
The Rosie Project - Graeme Simsion
The Lotus Eaters - Tatjana Soli
The Age of Miracles - Karen Thompson Walker
The 5th Wave - Rick Yancey
