The links for the above books will take you directly to the IndieBound.org book page for purchasing information, unless otherwise noted. Please note, I do not make anything off these links or profit in anyway from posting the links. I know that I am still searching for May releases and will likely do a Part II update. If you know of a book that should be included in this list, please include the title and author in the comments section and I will update the list.
