YA Releases of May 2017

Guys why does it always seem to happen that the most amazing books release while you're on a book buying ban?


I've been on a book buying ban since Christmas and my birthday, as I received so many incredible sounding books for both that it seemed ridiculous to go by more for awhile.

As well, my hubby and I are doing a "living below our means" challenge that we've been working on since Christmas, in order to pay down a bunch of our debt. While it's definitely been challenging, we've made so much progress and I can't wait to accomplish our goal in a couple of months, and be able to get back to buying books.


And I can guarantee you that all the ones I'm going to mention today that are releasing this month will be the top ones on my list to pick up come that day!


A Court of Wings and Ruin by Sarah J Maas:

While I have yet to read A Court of Mist and Fury, I loved A Court of Thorns and Roses, and I can't wait to continue on with this series. ACOMAF is already on our bookshelf, so I'm hoping it will be on my one of upcoming monthly TBR's, and then I can move onto this one as soon as I'm able to pick it up.


Flame In The Mist by Renee Ahdieh:

I have not actually read her Wrath and the Dawn series yet, but it's been on TBR list forever. And this new release of her's I've heard so many good things about already, that I just know I have to read it ASAP.


Windfall by Jennifer E Smith:

Jennifer E Smith is one of those authors in my opinion that couldn't write a bad book if she tried. I don't even know what this one's about, and yet it's still at the top of my books I need to pick up ASAP list.


Textrovert by Lindsay Summers:

I first read this quirky, adorable contemporary on Wattpad under it's original title The Cell Phone Swap, and I loved it! I can't wait to pick up the published version and see how it compares to Lindsay's original story.


Always and Forever Lara Jean by Jenny Han:

Lastly, I of course have to mention the conclusion to Jenny Han's Lara Jean trilogy. I was one of those people who was extremely excited when she announced that she'd be writing one more book in this series that she hadn't originally planned on. I've loved Jenny Han's novels ever since I first picked up The Summer I Turned Pretty back in 2011, and my opinions stayed the same ever since then. I'm beyond belief disappointed that I'm missing meeting her at RT Booklovers this year, but I'm holding out hope that I'll get to meet her one day soon, and tell her just how much I love love love her books. :)


Those are the May releases I'm most excited about guys! I'd love to hear which ones you're the most excited about, as there's so many amazing ones releasing this month.


Thanks so much for reading, and I'll see you all in my next post.
