Watch for the full September Texas Books Preview in the Sunday, August 30 special issue of Lone Star Literary Life. Here's what to expect:

Surprisingly cool mornings of late on the Caprock are comforting and give us hope that the summer dog days are preparing to slink away. As we attempt to comfort ourselves and each other in these strange and disturbing times, hope takes center stage from summer monsters, except for kids’ Halloween reading, in the September Texas Books Preview. We’ve got exhortations to campaign and vote, Christmas in September, beautiful Black boys, soothing faith, inspirational self-help, nesting with gorgeous coffee-table books on landscaping and decorating, culinary diversity in cookbooks, Western adventure, Willie Nelson begins his fall 2020 conquest of the publishing industry, and a plethora of poetry. Oh, but there are exorcisms.

 

In these uncertain times, we can be certain of the bookish goodness delivered by Lone Star Lit. ¡Salud!
