With social distancing restrictions still in place, one thing remains true: There's nothing better than a good book. Since March, more and more Americans must agree since many of them have been joining Book of the Month, a curated book service that provides a little fun in a world that very much needs a pick-me-up. And this September, the book service is delivering yet again with five new releases that deserve a spot at the top of your reading list.



"The Last Story of Mina Lee" by Nancy Jooyoun Kim

A story to fill the generational gap between mothers and daughters, sprinkled with mystery, self-discovery and love.


"Winter Counts" by David Heska and Wanbli Weiden

Follow a twisty path of vigilantism in this gritty crime novel set on a Native American reservation.


"Anxious People" by Fredrik Backman

Of all the ways to botch a bank robbery, this one takes the cake. Cue the hilariously flawed hostages.
