SO MANY GOOD BOOKS COMING OUT THIS MONTH!
Already on my TBR list (and waiting anxiously for them):

1.The Rose and the Dagger (The Wrath and The Dawn #2) by Renee Abdieh
2. The Trials of Apollo by Rick Riordan
3. The Crown (The Selection #5) by Kiera Cass
4. A Court of Mist and Fury (A Court of Thorn and Roses #2) by Sarah J Maas
5. The Last Star (The 5th Wave #3) by Rick Yancey

I also added these ones:
1. The Crown's Games by Evelyn Skye - seems very interesting, it's set in Russian and it seems like a Throne of Glass with magic!
2. Holding Smoke by Elle Cosimano
3. The May Queen Murders by Sarah Jude
4. Roses and Rot by Kat Howard

You're missing one. (My new YA) RESILIENCE amzn.to/1X112d6

I just added 16 more books.

So many sound good! Have there always been this many YA new releases in a month? I feel like YA lit has exploded in the last couple of years and every month the new releases list gets longer & longer!!! I like it, but my TBR list feels like it never gets any smaller

I know....I want to read almost all of them and so many awesome covers too.

I also know the feeling about a long TBR list, but when I'm in a reading slump, that long list also helps me to realize I will never run out of good books to read...thank goodness for that! I started an "up next" shelf to help me narrow down what I listen to next.

I believe May is "blockbuster" month" for new releases. Lot's of readers stock up for their summer reads. March is also a strong month. And I believe, June and July will have much smaller numbers.

OMG, 95 new YA books! And lots of books I want to read and almost all of them coming out back to back. UGH, my TBR is enormous as it is and I just keep adding more and more books. Also, I almost always want to read what is coming out now but then I think of all the books I have yet to read...at least I always have lots of choices!

It's a great time to be a YA book fan. I can't believe how all these fabulous authors create so many unique worlds, characters and stories.
