A tablet lies on dry grass and surrounded by dandelions in a natural outdoor setting. The screen displays the cover of the book Everybody Is in the Place by Emma J. Gibbon. The cover features a colorful, fantastical illustration of a female figure with glowing eyes and curved horns, holding something mysterious in her hands. Stars and swirling cosmic elements fill the background, giving the cover a magical and otherworldly feel. The title text is in bold, colorful letters across the top and middle, with the author's name at the bottom.

3 December Book Releases I Can’t Wait To Read

I’m so excited about these three releases! 

Let’s dive in!

3 December Book Releases I Can’t Wait To Read

Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Vol. 2 by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, Illustrated by Robert Hack 

Expected publication date: December 25th 2018
Genre: Graphic Novel

Synopsis: 
Terror is born anew in this dark reimagining of Sabrina the Teenage Witch’s origin and history, an occult coming-of-age thriller!

On the eve of her 16th birthday, the young sorceress found herself at a crossroads, having to choose between an unearthly destiny and her mortal boyfriend, Harvey. But a foe from her family’s past arrived in Greendale with her own deadly agenda… and Sabrina was dragged into a world of supernatural terror. The next chapter of Archie Comics’ latest horror sensation continues here!

Hunting Annabelle by Wendy Heard

Expected publication date: December 25th 2018
Genre: Mystery
Synopsis: 
Sean Suh is done with killing. After serving three years in a psychiatric prison, he’s determined to stay away from temptation. But he can’t resist Annabelle–beautiful, confident, incandescent Annabelle–who alone can see past the monster to the man inside. The man he’s desperately trying to be.

Then Annabelle disappears.

Sean is sure she’s been kidnapped—he witnessed her being taken first hand—but the police are convinced that Sean himself is at the centre of this crime. And he must admit, his illness has caused him to “lose time” before. What if there’s more to what happened than he’s able to remember?

Though haunted by the fear that it might be better for Annabelle if he never finds her, Sean can’t bring himself to let go of her without a fight. To save her, he’ll have to do more than confront his own demons… He’ll have to let them loose.

Watching You by Lisa Jewell 
Expected publication date: December 26th 2018
Genre: Mystery

Synopsis:
Melville Heights is one of the nicest neighbourhoods in Bristol, England; home to doctors and lawyers and old-money academics. It’s not the sort of place where people are brutally murdered in their own kitchens. But it is the sort of place where everyone has a secret. And everyone is watching you.

As the headmaster credited with turning around the local school, Tom Fitzwilliam is beloved by one and all—including Joey Mullen, his new neighbor, who quickly develops an intense infatuation with this thoroughly charming yet unavailable man. Joey thinks her crush is a secret, but Tom’s teenaged son Freddie—a prodigy with aspirations of becoming a spy for MI5—excels in observing people and has witnessed Joey behaving strangely around his father.

One of Tom’s students, Jenna Tripp, also lives on the same street, and she’s not convinced her teacher is as squeaky clean as he seems. For one thing, he has taken a particular liking to her best friend and fellow classmate, and Jenna’s mother—whose mental health has admittedly been deteriorating in recent years—is convinced that Mr. Fitzwilliam is stalking her.

Meanwhile, twenty years earlier, a schoolgirl writes in her diary, charting her doomed obsession with a handsome young English teacher named Mr. Fitzwilliam…

Thanks for reading!

    I think I've read the single issue comics of Sabrina from Hoopla for all that will be in this book except the last one. It's still exciting though. I have 3 more episodes to watch of Season 1. Mr. Barb refused to watch it but after catching some of the first two, decided he liked it. He kept picturing the Sabrina comedy of long ago. I also want to read Hunting Annabelle. Sounds awesome.
