Can't contribute much here, I'm afraid. I'm still working through my 'to-read' list from 2018. All this talk of new releases just gives me anxiety! I'll just read the replies and maybe steal a few ideas for when I finally catch up.
I use a combination of RSS feeds. Many of the sites mentioned here—publisher blogs, review sites, book news outlets—offer RSS. I funnel them all into a feed reader (like Feedly) and have a folder called 'New Books.'
Every morning with my coffee, I scroll through the headlines. It's a clean, ad-free, algorithm-free way to see every announcement and review roundup in one place. I can quickly skim, star items of interest, and move on. This method puts me in control of the information stream, pulling it to me on my terms rather than being pushed by social media.
Honestly, Amazon's 'Upcoming Releases' page, sorted by genre and date, is brutally effective for sheer comprehensiveness, especially for genre fiction. It shows you everything, from the biggest trad-pub title to the self-published Kindle Unlimited story, complete with pre-order links. The 'Customers also pre-ordered' feature is weirdly predictive.
I use it more as a discovery engine than a final arbiter. I'll scan the lists, note anything with an interesting cover or premise, and then go research that title elsewhere for actual reviews. It's the digital equivalent of walking through a massive bookstore's new release section to see all the options on the shelves.
I follow book designers on Instagram. Seriously. A stunning cover often makes me investigate a book I'd otherwise scroll past. Designers like @rodrigocorral or studios often post their work for upcoming titles. It's a visual-first discovery method.
I'll see a beautiful cover, look up the title in the caption, and add it to my list if the premise sounds interesting. It's a superficial starting point, but it has introduced me to incredible books I would have missed because they weren't being shouted about on my usual text-based channels. Great design is a legitimate hook.
Websites like Shepherd.com are great for this. They have lists like 'The Best New Books of [Month]' curated by authors and experts, not just editors. The recommendations come with personal stories about why the book resonated, which adds a layer of depth.
It's less of a brute-force list and more of a curated, essay-style approach to highlighting new releases. You might only get 5-10 books featured per month, but the write-ups are so compelling and personal that each one feels like a must-read. It's quality over quantity tracking.

Sinners & Saints: A Collection Of Dark Romance Stories

This author once failed as a heroine… and returned as something entirely different.
Not as a savior.
But as the villain.
And she didn’t come back empty-handed.
She brought secrets.
She brought sins.
She brought a story that was never meant to be read.
Sinners & Saints is not just a collection of dark romance stories—
It is a confession.
A warning.
And a door best left unopened.
Within these pages lie twisted love stories where desire and destruction walk hand in hand, and every choice comes with a cost.
So the question is simple:
Will you turn away…
or step inside anyway?

You're not just reading smut-you're stepping into fantasies too bold for real life. This collection delivers raw, unapologetic, toe-curling tales that dive headfirst into taboo temptation, dominant lovers, and scenes dripping with lust and power play.
Each chapter brings a new pair (or more 😉), new kinks, and wild scenarios-from forbidden office affairs to brat-taming bodyguards, hot professors, naughty neighbors, and secret hookups that should never happen... but do.
Some stories are told in third person. Others? You'll be the one getting pinned, spanked, or seduced-written in Y/N POV so you feel every sinful second.
So if you're into steamy, twisted, dirty-as-hell reads that don't shy away from the filthy stuff-this is your new obsession.
Let's be honest. You're not here for the plot. You're here to get ruined.
Warning: This book is soaked in desire, soaked in sin... and soaked in more.
I use a website called Edelweiss, which is more industry-focused. Publishers catalog their upcoming titles there with full descriptions and covers.
While it's meant for booksellers and librarians, anyone can browse. I search by on-sale date and filter for 'E-book'. It's a pristine, ad-free list of everything coming out, direct from the source, without any algorithms getting in the way.
I go straight to the source: publisher catalogs. Most big publishers (Tor, DAW, Harper Voyager, etc.) have seasonal catalogs available as PDFs on their websites. Flipping through these is like reading a menu of the next six months of SFF. It’s pure, unfiltered information straight from the people making the books.
