Hello, all the books listeners.

This is Jeff O'Neill, editor, CEO, podcaster here at BookWrite.

You've heard me on this show from time to time in the past.

We're doing something new.

This episode is called The Hot List, and it's going to be appearing in this feed once a month,

also in the BookWriott podcast feed once month, in the middle, late of the month,

in which we're checking in on which books are trending, are selling, have some buzz,

maybe there's adaptation news, maybe there's drama, something else going on there.

We're checking out Rebecca Shinsky and I will be appearing in your feeds.

Listen for us there. You're going to hear us every month and hope you really enjoy the show.

If you got feedback for this episode specifically, shoot us an email at podcast at bookriot.com.

You've got suggestions. We're open to some ideas about how to structure this. Go ahead and listen

to this episode. Tell us what you

think at podcast of bookriot.com. And thank you so much for listening to all the books and all the

Book Riot Podcasts. Here's the show. This is the bookwryrd podcast. I am Jeff O'Neill.

And I'm Rebecca Schinsky. Hot list time. Again, Rebecca, we're coming into the second most interesting time of the publishing season, which is summer, really now through what, mid-June, I guess, or last week through mid-June? Yeah, like this through mid-June. And then late August, we do get a little early fall stuff, has been creeping into late August.

We're trying to sneak in some of the big books of fall even before Labor Day now.

But this is a really just buzz-filled time, and things are moving really quickly.

I started our notes for this recording last week before I took PTO.

I came back this morning to double check the bestseller list and see if anything had changed.

And a lot of things had shifted around.

This list is pretty different than it was just six days ago with one more week of new releases
