Saturday, November 22nd, is Go for a Ride Day. We think this means taking a ride on your bike, skateboard, boat, or car. However, this is a book website, and the best way to go for a ride, in our opinion, is with a great book in hand. Here’s all of today’s new releases to get you started on your journey.
