There are so many interesting releases coming out in 2023. In this list, I have my Summer 2023 anticipated books (which includes the months of June, July and August).
JUNE
1. Unfortunately Yours by Tessa Bailey ~ June 11, 2023
I will basically pick up any contemporary romance that Tessa Bailey writes and I am very excited for this next one. It follows a Napa heiress who loses her job and fiance and in order to get her trust fund to finance her new business venture, she must marry. I didn't love the first in this series, however, this is a marriage of convenience which makes me very intrigued to try this one.
2. A Love Catastrophe by Helena Hunting ~ June 13, 2023
I haven't read many of Helena Hunting's books, however, I have a couple on my want to read list. I did read Kiss My Cupcake awhile ago and I ended up enjoying it immensely. I don't know much about this book except that it's a romance which follows a cat sitter and a man who doesn't like cats.
3. Love, Theoretically by Ali Hazelwood ~ June 13, 2023
I have read two of Ali Hazelwood's books so far, and one has been a hit while the other was a miss. I don't know much about this one except that a lot of people like it even more than The Love Hypothesis.
4. Dance of Devils and Daylight by Indiana Rose ~ June 17, 2023
This is the sequel to Scars of Salt and Silver which was a pirate fantasy story and one of my favorite books that I've read so far this year. I am very excited to see what happens with the characters in the sequel.
5. Where Echoes Die by Courtney Gould ~ June 20, 2023
If I'm being completely honest, I added this book to my most anticipated list solely because of the cover. However, I know this one is a horror/thriller young adult novel set in a small town where everyone has no idea how they got there. I am very excited to get into it.
6. And Break The Pretty Kings by Lena Jeong ~ June 20, 2023
This is another book that I know virtually nothing about except that it is a fantasy book inspired by Korean history and myths. I think this is a book that I'd like to go into knowing not much about it but I am excited nonetheless.
7. Starlings by Amanda Linsmeier ~ June 27, 2023
This is another young adult horror fantasy that is said to be perfect for fans of House of Hollow, which is one of my favorite books. It's about a girl who's father told her that he had no remaining family but when he suddenly dies, she is invited by the grandmother she never knew she had, to visit her father's hometown. When she's there, she discovers that something is off about the town and her family. It sounds very spooky and I'm ready to read it.
JULY
If you know anything about me it's that I will always read a pirate novel. This is about a woman who is a stormsinger, which is a creature that closely resembles sirens. She is faced with servitude to pirate lord Silvanus Lirr and in exchange for protection she offers her skills to his arch-rival in hopes that he'll help her send Lirr "to a watery grave". It sounds so good and early reviews are making me even more excited.
2. Those We Drown by Amy Goldsmith ~ July 11, 2023
This is an ocean horror novel which is one of my favorite types of horror settings. It's about a girl who is on a semester-at-sea program and her best friend disappears on their first night on board. It sounds so spooky and I'm excited to read it.
3. The Jasad Heir by Sara Hashem ~ July 18, 2023
This is an Egyptian inspired political fantasy book about a fugitive queen who has to strike a bargain with her greatest enemy and not reveal her true identity. I have recently discovered that I really enjoy adult political fantasies so I am excited for this one.
4. Immortal Longings by Chloe Gong ~ July 25, 2023
Chloe Gong wrote one of my favorite YA books, These Violent Delights, and this is her adult fantasy debut. It's supposed to be a fantasy inspired by Shakespeare's Antony and Cleopatra, with a set of deadly games reminiscent of The Hunger Games. It sounds so good.
5. One of Us is Back by Karen M. McManus ~ July 25, 2023
One of Us is Lying is a favorite YA mystery book of mine and I am so excited to read the third book in the e series. The synopsis doesn't give much away so I am excited to go into it somewhat blind.
6. House of Roots and Ruin by Erin A. Craig ~ July 25, 2023
This is the sequel/companion novel to House of Salt and Sorrows which was a horror/gothic twelve dancing princesses retelling which I loved. I am very excited to read from the perspective of a different sister in this one and I have already preordered it.
AUGUST
1. Zhara by S. Jae-Jones ~ August 1, 2023
This is another book that I don't know much about but I love one of the author's other books so I am excited to read this one. I just know that it is a fantasy book set in a realm where magic is forbidden.
2. The Roommate Pact by Allison Ashley ~ August 1, 2023
This is the companion novel to Would You Rather which I read last year and really enjoyed. This is about two of the minor characters in that book and I am excited to read it.
3. Foxglove by Adalyn Grace ~ August 22, 2023
Belladonna was one of my favorite books of 2022 and I really need to read this sequel as soon as possible. This is a gothic fantasy series which I highly recommend.
4. House of Marionne by J. Elle ~ August 29, 2023
This is supposed to be Dark Academia mixed with Bridgerton with female rage and honestly that is all I need to know. It's also a mix between fantasy and fantasy romance.
5. Vampires of El Norte by Isabel Canas ~ August 29, 2023
I haven't read The Hacienda by this author yet but I am very excited to read it soon. This is another horror gothic novel but this time with vampires and it sounds so good.
6. Her Radiant Curse by Elizabeth Lim ~ August 29, 2023
I love Elizabeth Lim's books so much and I am very excited to read this one. This is a spin-off prequel to the Six Crimson Cranes series about two sisters and it sounds so good. I am very excited to get to it.
