I'm going to read Reckless. I liked Powerless, so it better be good. I'd skip the rest.
I had Masquerade by O.O. Sangoyomi Y marked to read. Nothing else from this list caught my eye.
I absolutely loved Evenings and Weekends! Can’t wait to check out The God of the Woods.

Out today in nonfiction:The Talented Mrs. Mandelbaum: The Rise and Fall of an American Organized-Crime Boss by Margalit Fox
The God of the Woods sounds really good.
The Lion Women of Tehran, The Night Ends With Fire, Masquerade and The Love of My Afterlife all sound excellent.
Will definitely have to check out The Night Ends With Fire and The God of the Woods at some point, they sound very interesting!
Thank you for adding this list. I would have hated to have missed these, esp Lisa Jewel doing Jessica Jones! And Clare Pooley is new to me but I’m super interested.ETA I’m responding to Jamie’s comment/list!!! Thanks Jamie!

I'm looking forward to The God of the Woods and Masquerade.
