Readers, it’s been awhile since we shared a smattering of much-anticipated seasonal reads with you. Today is the day! We have 16 enticing new and upcoming titles from almost every genre: literary fiction, nonfiction, romance, poetry, speculative fiction, and more. If you feel overwhelmed by spring releases this year, we hope this episode helps you hone in on the books that are worth your time and right for you.
We’ll be sharing backlist pairings in a bonus episode on Patreon later this week, so head over there to gather up even more book recommendations.
Here are a few links to click through if you can’t get enough spring and summer book lists:
Spring 2023 reads to enter your Rory Gilmore era (Camille Styles)
107 (!!!) sensational spring book releases (Beyond Bookends)
Spring YA releases by genre (Get Underlined)
Spring releases from Atlanta-based authors (Atlanta Magazine)
6 spring releases for the serious reader (BookTrib.)
Indie booksellers recommend 17 spring titles (Off the Shelf)
We’re looking forward to diving into more historical fiction next week with Catherine Called Birdy. In April, we’ll move on to Orphans, Scoundrels, and Scamps, featuring Huckleberry Finn, Anne Shirley, and two precocious museum visitors. We’ll share our updated calendar soon, and we hope you’ll join the coziest, nerdiest community on the internet!
Please let us know which spring books you’re most looking forward to by leaving a comment here or tagging us on Instagram.
Happy Spring Reading,
Chelsey & Sara
I'm a fan of the pod and have been for awhile, so when I came across your substack, I got so excited! Happy to be here.
