Cookbook publishing slows down a bit from May until July which is bittersweet. I love the rush of books but also find the slower months leaves more time to dig into new titles more deeply. This month was a bit smaller in number but I’ve weeded through about seventy-five books to bring you those titles you should know about!

If you are wondering what the remainder of 2018 has in store, my preview post contains a breakdown of the titles by month and I frequently update it. A friend mentioned that he so appreciated this comprehensive listing because in the past he would spend hours searching for cookbooks and now I’ve done all the work. I’m a giver.

Before I get to our roundup, a few housekeeping reminders:

  • Please make sure you have entered all our giveaways, there are some exciting promotions up and more are coming! I am working hard to include as many regions as possible and again we are at the mercy of our publishers. You will note extra entries in the Rafflecopter form such as visiting our publishers’ and authors’ social media pages, so please show our appreciation for their efforts by paying those sites a visit. If you have any trouble entering the contests, see our step-by-step help post.
  • Have you joined our cookbook clubs? Read our latest summary and come have fun with us while we cook and bake from new selections each month. We offer online recipe options as well so that everyone can participate.
  • Have you been enjoying our and ? Find out more information on this new exciting feature here and be sure to look for these buttons throughout our posts.
  • If an author has events on our calendar, please look for this icon which will take you to that author’s particular events.
  • Lastly, each Sunday, I compile a listing of Kindle cookbook deals and I update that post throughout the week when additions are made and/or deletions. Having a Kindle version available to read while traveling or making a decision to buy the hard copy is wonderful, especially at such great prices.

Now let’s talk about this month. Check the blog frequently as promotions are planned for most of these titles and be sure to follow us on social media (buttons on right lower side bar on the home page – photo right). If you would like to order any of these titles, using our affiliate links (right beneath the social media buttons) or the button on the book details page, you will help to support EYB and our indexing efforts (as well as help us to include worldwide options in some promotions). Each author that has events scheduled has a link at the end of the book blurb. Most of our titles are released in multiple regions and worldwide sellers such as Book Depository make more of these titles available to more members.
