It’s time for one of my favorite posts each year: my annual anticipated book releases! It’s somewhat difficult to create this list so early in the year, given that the majority of announced books for 2023 so far are mostly coming out between January and June while we wait to hear about later summer and fall releases. Here’s to always hoping for a new Sarah J. Maas book!

I am SO excited for the upcoming romances this year, especially the new Christina Lauren and Ali Hazelwood! I also just became aware of Lucy Score, and I’m excited to start her book too! I just started Kindle Unlimited and it seems like there’s a bunch of great romances on there!

I’m going to have to look more into KU! So excited for the new CLo! I felt medium about Love on the Brain, so I’m hoping I’ll love Ali Hazelwood’s new book as much as The Love Hypothesis.
