Coming Up for Air by Miranda Kenneally: Swimming! Summer! Friends to lover trope! SO CUTE.

July 11th

Because You Love to Hate Me edited by Ameriie: This is possibly one of my MOST anticipated books of this year! This is an anthology of short stories from bestselling authors who are also paired with a booktuber writing about the villains featured in fairytales! I loooooove a good anti-hero/villain story and plus there are some of my favourite authors here soooooo SQUEAL. (Authors include: Renee Ahdieh, Marissa Meyer, Adam Silvera, Victoria Schwab… THIS IS HEAVEN)

What to Say Next by Julie Buxbaum: I looooooved Tell Me Three Things from this author! So I can’t wait to read this one, it sounds and looks SO CUTE! I want a smoothie tooooooooooo. Or I’m assuming it’s a smoothie??

I See London, I See France by Sarah Mlynowski: I SENSE TRAVEL omg YES. The main character is literally visiting Europeeeee I sense wanderlust and AGH. ❤

Ash and Quill by Rachel Caine: Okay so I’m guilty of not having read the second book in the series yet despite having an ARC of it since last year?? I KNOW. One of my absolute worst book blogger confessions ever omg. But I am looking forward to this one!!

Paintbrush by Hannah Bucchin: LOOK AT THAT COVER I don’t even need to know what it’s about *heart eyes*

The Art of Starving by Sam J. Miller: This sounds so heartbreakingggg! Oh my gosh. It’s about a bullied gay boy who has an eating disorder and its blurb also mentions More Happy Than Not?! MINE.

The Savage Dawn by Melissa Grey (The Girl at Midnight #3): I haven’t read this series yet but I know people who love it, so I definitely want to try it out! I hope it’s a good read!

The Dragons of Nova by Elise Kova (Loom Saga #2): I’ve heard so much yet so little about Elise Kova! There seems to be a lot of people who’ve read her other fantasy series, but they claim she’s underrated? *shrug* Either way the book sounds good!

Hello, Sunshine by Leila Howland: Who, me?? WHY THANKS YOU. Also fluff and sunshine!! #yes

This is How it Happened by Paula Stokes: Much vagueness?? WHAT HAPPENED??! Unfortunately the main character doesn’t know either because she just woke up from a coma and–

July 18th

The Color Project by Sierra Abrams: Family, friendship and romance, all in one book? Also I’ve read such amazing recs of it so far and that cover is so gorgeoussss.

The Library of Fates by Aditi Khorana: Ahem, this said, and I quote, “romantic fantasy tale steeped in Indian folklore, perfect for fans of The Star-Touched Queen and The Wrath and the Dawn” OH HI two of my favourite books??! Please don’t be a marketing ploy please please. GIMME.

The Last Magician by Lisa Maxwell: Magic! (no duh) In modern day New York! Stealing books! I mean if I were a criminal I’d relate. MINE!

Wesley James Ruined My Life by Jennifer Honeybourn: Another friend-to-lover trope! This one sounds like such fun.

The Ends of the World by Maggie Hall: Hehehehe this is another tragic case of me-falling-out-of-interest-because-of-waiting? I loved the first book but when the second released I didn’t care very much haha but now that the third is releasing I might try to read the whole series!

What Goes Up by Katie Kennedy: I don’t usually read sci-fi? But oh well, it sounds pretty good!

July 25th

Lucky in Love by Kasie West: Aghhh so many anticipated releases on July 25th for me!! Kasie West is SUCH an amazing contemporary author, her books are always so adorable. NEED THIS BOOK!!

Daughter of the Burning City by Amanda Foody: Where Lucky in Love is super cute, this one seems more of a darker book and I can’t wait!! It has a traveling carnival and I neeeeeeed to read this!!

The Gallery of Unfinished Girls by Lauren Karcz: Ahhh this sounds so good! We have a POC MC and bisexual rep I think, as well as an f/f romance though I’m not sure how much it plays a part. It sounds very artsy!

Everything All at Once by Katrina Leno: The main character has anxiety! It sounds like such a wonderful coming of age story.

Changes in Latitude by Jen Malone: A road trip romance that takes place at sea I think??? #muchsense

Vanguard by Ann Aguirre (Razorland #4): I haven’t read this series but I’ve heard of it before! That counts for something right??

Little Monsters by Kara Thomas: This is pitched as being for fans of Pretty Little Liars and it’s a psychological thriller! I used to be a fan of PLL, not so much anymore and I don’t read many thrillers at all but it sounds interesting!

First We Were IV by Alexandra Sirowy: Revenge! Death! Rebellion! Sounds perfect. 😛 (I swear I’m normal. Mostly.)

Buried Heart by Kate Elliott: I swear, these one year waits between books are horrible. I don’t remember much of what happened in the first two books? But I mean, I liked them well enough, the first better than the second but I hope this is a good finale!!

What books are you looking forward to this month?! I am SO looking forward to so many of these!! Do you think you’ll be broke this month or will you still have some money left?? How was your month, reading/life wise? Let us talk and screech over time moving too fast but also incredibly slowly! And don’t forget to enter the giveaway if you haven’t already!
