The Paper Caper just came out today! (July 26/22). A great cozy mystery series with a protagonist who does antiquarian book repairs and her family owns a winery on a commune.
The New Neighbor was fun, I enjoyed it.
Lottery to Haven came out this week if in the mood for some dystopian scifi from an indie author. I beta read during development, and its worth a look.

Def not the best „6 great books“ hitting shelves this week…

This one is more exciting:
