As some of you might have heard, Functionally Fictional is getting an internal overhaul. While restructuring, we appreciate everyone’s patience. We’re not only working on reorganizing the behind-the-scenes information (aka emails and spreadsheets, keeping track of everything) to better serve authors and publishers, but we’re working on a more consistent schedule to get posts to our readers.
Starting here with TBR Tuesday!
Here are some of the books the team is hoping to read this month. Let us know in the comments if you’ve read any of the books,
And stay tuned to find out our September Book of the Month and live chat date!

I know! I was shocked. Sourcebooks and I are one of the few publishers that have been on shakey terms but they approved that and then suddenly they let me have whatever… which is a little late because all the things I had wanted was basically already out or I had gotten on NG (they like me on NG but not EW- go figure) -_-
