tell me something tuesday

Tell Me Something Tuesday is hosted by Rainy Day Ramblings and discusses a wide range of topics from books to blogging.

*Keeping with this weeks theme of posting a feature on the wrong day….lol

I’m sure I’ll pull it together next week. Maybe.

Question: What are your spring picks for 2018

I’m really bad at looking ahead for books. I’m barely keeping up with what I have now, and I’ve already said several times that this year is all about clearing that old TBR pile.

I did receive this Spring 2018 box of arc’s from Macmillan/Fierce Reads though (thank you!) so I’ll feature that because there are a few titles in there I’m looking forward to reading.



The Traitor’s Ruin (Traitor’s Circle #2) by Erin Beaty – I did not read book #1 but I believe this is historical fantasy??

Google It! A History of Google but Anna Crowley Redding – An odd choice to throw in with a box of YA but sure – I’ll give it a go.

How to Breathe Underwater by Vicky Skinner -  “Kate’s father has been pressuring her to be perfect for her whole life, pushing her to be the best swimmer she can be. But when Kate finds her dad cheating on her mom, Kate’s perfect world comes crashing down, and Kate is forced to leave home and the swim team she's been a part of her whole life.” Sounds like there may be cheating involved with the LI?? He’s a boy that already has a girlfriend. It is from their Swoon imprint and I usually like that line because they are low angst. But not usually my thing so we’ll see.

Love Scene, Take Two by Alex Evansley – “Debut author Alex Evansley delivers a sweet summer romance in this inventive novel about a young heartthrob and teen author falling in love.” – Sounds potentially cute has quite a few good reviews.

The Handsome Girl & Her Beautiful boy by B.T. Gottfred – I read Gottfred’s The Dirty and the Nerdy last year and thought it was wonderfully frank and sex positive but didn’t love it so we’ll see with this book that explores “gender, sexuality, and identity”

Summer Skin by Kirsty Eager – “Jess Gordon is out for revenge. Last year the jocks from Knights College tried to shame her best friend. This year she and a hand-picked college girl gang are going to get even.” 

Eep – not sure about this one. Neo riot girl falls for sexist pig? I hope there’s more to it than that…we’'ll see.

The Way You Make Me Feel by Maureen Goo  - I had a few issues with the heroines erratic (& I felt dangerous) behavior in Goo’s debut novel, I Believe in a Thing Called Love, but I adored the writing and sense of family, so I hope this is as adorable as it looks.

And I’ll add one book that I do not have -



Starry Eyes by Jenn Bennett. I love her writing and can’t wait to read this one!

What spring reads are you looking forward to?
