​​‘Tis the season for giving, especially new YA books. I can’t believe it’s December already, which means is my last edition of Precommendations: Volume 2! 2018 has been a year full of fantastic new releases, and this month is no different. Make sure you let me know what books you are looking forward to being released this month, as well as if you would like to see me do this series again next year!

       ‘Tis the season to be thankful, and what better thing to be thankful for than books? (Besides cake. Cake first, books second.) To celebrate the first month of the cozy reading season, I’ve compiled a list of some brand new releases for you all to enjoy this month. We’ve even got a few extra days this month to enjoy some time reading on the days off. Let me know in the comments what books you’re looking forward to reading, and if there are any I missed you think I should be anticipating. 

       It’s spooky season, everyone! I am so excited for all things October. Bring on the pumpkins, the leaves, the cold weather, and all the new books! There are a bunch of new books to suit your Halloween needs, as well as a few for the people who would rather read a contemporary instead. This month features books for all your needs, so let's go ahead and jump right into this month’s list!

       September comes and brings colder weather, football games, and, of course, A BUNCH OF GREAT NEW BOOKS. Two of my favorite stories are getting sequels, and we’re getting some great new series and standalone stories too. By the end of the month, we’ll be able to snuggle down by the fire and enjoy our books in peace, without being bothered to “go outside.” Because that’s lame. In preparation for the best time of the year to read, I am sharing with you my five anticipated September releases. 

       Hello, August! A new month brings the start of the "Back to School" season, cooler weather, and (of course) a new issue of Precommendations! This post is, admittedly, a little late this month, but I filled last week to the brim with BookTube-A-Thon. So, unfortunately, this post is coming to you this weekend instead of last weekend. I am so excited to share all of the new books that are coming out this month. Since there are so many coming out this month, I couldn't make myself choose any one book over another; they all sound so good! Make sure you let me know what books you are looking forward to this month in the comments.

​       July is an excellent time for book buying. It’s the middle of summer, and it's the middle of a season when we can read whatever we want whenever we want. I was so happy to see the eclectic bunch of new releases coming out this month. Usually, during this time of year, I’m in a full-on contemporary mode, but this group of books has gotten me excited to read a bunch of different genres! If there are any that I missed, let me know in the comments!

       It’s officially SUMMER VACATION!!! I’m so excited to have ample time to read and share my bookish thoughts with you! I’m also excited to be bringing you another edition of Precommendations this month, filled with plenty of cute contemporary reads to last you all month. If there are any June releases that you think I need to add to my list, be sure to let me know in the comments. I don’t want to miss out on a great read!

      May is here, and it has brought warmer weather with it! I am so excited to see summer around the corner, and my anticipated releases certainly reflect that. I am very much a mood-reader, so when the seasons change, my genre ratio in my reading shifts, specifically to contemporaries in the summer. So, I have lined up six up-and-coming books to share with you this month along with some exciting news. 

​       Spring is in the air, and with a new season comes more books! This month I have three very different books to share with you, all of which I can’t wait to read.
       If you’re new to my blog and this series (hello!) Precommendations is a monthly series I do where I make a list of my most anticipated young adult releases for the upcoming month. Be sure to share any books that you are excited about in the comments!

       Spring is in the air, my fellow readers! March is one of my favorite months of the year. The weather gets warmer than February, I spend more time outdoors than I did during basketball season, AND it’s my birthday month! (March 22nd, if any of you feel so inclined to send me books, hahaha) Besides being a good time of year, there are so many great book releases this month that I can’t wait to read.
