How do you keep up with releases of future books for authors or series you love?  I read a lot - several hundred books per year.  And there are so many authors/series I like that I lose track. 

I love, love, love the thread in this Forum listing upcoming books and release dates. But as for the ones I personally want to read / want to buy as soon as they come out....?

When I think of it, I'll post a task on my Outlook calendar with the release date of a particular book.

Are there any newsletters/blogs that you read to keep informed of new releases?

All comments/ideas appreciated.

I routinely check here and the authors' websites.

Jo,

I subscribe to fictfact.com.  They send me emails of new releases and they also have a new release calendar.  I have a list of series

that I have read and they always let me know when the next release is coming out.  I really like it.  Try it and let me know what you think.

Fictfact is good; plus I try to visit Fantastic Fiction a few times a week to see what's new and upcoming

All Things Urban Fantasy also has a list every month, with covers and descriptions. (The new site is loading slowly. I'm hoping they will get used to it and improve the speed.)

Locus has a list every Tuesday and a forthcoming list for the year.

I use Amazon.  I put stuff in my Wish List, assign a priority according to publication date and then sort by priority.  I also look at "Cusxtomers who bought this also bought ..." for more authors.
