I am glad I am not the only one trying to forget we are well into May already.

OK, team. Sorry this has taken so long.
Here's a little change I've been intending to make for ages. From now on I'm going to post two months at a time. So next month there'll be the books listed here for June plus all those due out in July.
Is this because you cannot keep track of months and so will only have to be embarrassed about it every other month?
Nothing else has changed; we'd still love for you to share the books we've missed off the list.
Hope this helps!
