Welcome to Precommendations, a serial on my blog where I try to make your TBRs so large that they end up swallowing you whole. Just kidding (I think…). Since summer is officially in full swing, I have found more and more time to read. I can’t wait to start posting more reviews in this space, and if you have any recommendations or requests, be sure to leave them in the comments!

       Sometimes, the best books to read are the ones you pick up on a whim. As a book blogger, I try to pick out the books I read with some sort of reasoning. Sometimes I get a recommendation from someone in person, and other times, I am craving a particular genre or type of book. With Dance of Thieves, I let chance pick my next read. After finishing the book I had brought with me to work a couple of weeks ago, I was terribly bored and wanted to start a new book (because obviously). After searching for every single book 

       Hello, book lovers! Long time no post. As you may have noticed, I’ve been a bit absent over the past month. With high school coming to an end, my schedule exploded this month. It got to the point where something had to give, and unfortunately, it was reading and blogging. BUT, I am super excited because now that I am done with high school, my schedule has filled up with two things: work and BOOKS!
       Now, to kick off the summer, I’ve decided to catch up with last month’s issue of Precommendations and bring you this month’s issue all in one post. #2for1

​       Hello, bookish people! I’ve been wanting to do a tag to tell you all a little more about me, but I just couldn’t find the right one to share with you. So, after a little over two weeks of being eighteen, I thought it would be perfect for finding eighteen books that relate to “fun facts” about me. The books could connect to me through their title, plot, or cover, and they are everything from significant events in my life to small quirks. Let’s do this.

       Hello, book lovers! It feels like it’s been a while since I’ve blogged. With the end of the school year (and my high school career) nearing, my school work and scholarship applications have increased little by little. So, for the next month or so, I might be on and off with my posting schedule, but I promise that I will be back to blogging full-time this summer!
       With that being said, I’m so excited to bring you a couple of April releases I am dying to get my hands on. Let me know what books you’re looking forward to in the comments so I can check them out.

       This past weekend was the last theatre production of my high school career. For my senior role, I was honored to portray the Lady Larken in Once Upon A Mattress. It has been fun, and I’m thankful for all the memories I’ve made with the cast. Since the show is a retelling of The Princess and The Pea, I thought it would be fun to tie in a few retellings this week, too. I’ve got three amazing books to share with you, so let’s get on with the show!

       Happy March! March is one of the best months of the year; spring is just around the corner, high school musicals are up and running, and it’s my birth month! With all of these beautiful things on their way, I can’t wait to share some great new releases, too. I can’t promise too much reading this month, because this first half of the month is absolute craziness with my schedule, but I am looking forward to reading these books sometime soon. Be sure to let me know what books you’re reading this month in the comments.

       I’m back with another fantastic audiobook review this week! I’ve been having a hard time finding time to read, but the audiobooks I’ve been listening to these past few months have been getting me through. This one was especially cute, and I can’t wait to discuss it with you. Without further ado, let’s get into the review!

       Hello, fellow readers! This week’s review is the audiobook version of One of Us is Lying, and I’m so excited to tell you about it. Audiobooks have been my savior this year when it comes to reading, and this book was a great one to mix up my reading tastes a little bit. I am always talking about how I want to read more in the mystery/thriller genre, and this book reminded me why!

       Happy February! To celebrate an early spring, the season of love, and the Presidents of the USA, I’ve compiled a list of my most anticipated new YA books which are coming out this month. Hopefully, some of these books are on your radar, too, and we can chat about them in the comments. If not, you can reply with your anticipated releases so I can add them to my TBR. I can’t wait to read all of these new books (and watch my TBR cry under the new towering weight).
