Three books lined up so you can see the covers. The books are Good People by Patmeena Sabit, Lost Lambs by Madeline Cash, and Chosen Family by Madeleine Gray.

Treated myself to three new books because I've got some annual leave booked over the next couple of weeks! Looking forward to slowness and reading some books that I'm really excited about.
