#HauteReads: 6 New Books You Have To Read This September

Can you believe that September is already here? This year is certainly going by faster than expected. And to let you in on a secret, I had promised myself that I’d read at least 12 books this year. But that has not been possible because of my hectic schedule (yes, I am going to shamelessly blame it on work). Now that I have read 5 and I’m not even halfway through, the hunt for good fiction books has began.

There is no shortage of books out there, and the more we read, the more we realise this is true. This month too, there are a number of book releases that look promising and exciting. So, instead of reading old material, I decided to indulge in these new reads. And if you are looking at reading some great fiction, take a look at this list and keep a tab on their release date. Or just pre-order them right now!
