I hadn't thought about books coming out evenly throughout the month -- I guess because mine have always come out on the first Tuesday. And the ones I go to the bookstore or Amazon to buy (mostly romances/fantasies) seem to be geared toward the first of month too. But I guess in this economy, publishers need to be releasing new titles every week to get any advantage that they can in terms of sales. Good point, Tia! ;-) Hmm … I hadn’t thought about books coming out evenly throughout the month — I guess because mine have always come out on the first Tuesday.

When I don't know the exact release date but I know the month, I usually guess the first Tuesday, but that's only because I give myself the whole month to get it right. :) Other than they are on Tuesday, they seem to come out evenly throughout the month. At least, that seems to be true when you're looking at ALL the publishers, like I do. (Or try to do.) The big thing I’ve noticed about release dates is most of them are on a Tuesday.
