πŸ’™πŸ“š Five YA books on my TBR I’m excited to read.

I love a YA book, they’re quick easy reads in between all more darker thriller books I read.

These ones all sound really good. Particularly excited for the new Rory Power one, this is out 5th June.

πŸ“• The cliffhanger by Emily Freud
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨

This is a tense, gripping thriller. A slow start but then the pace ramps up. It makes you feel incredibly uneasy.

I do keep wondering about this series despite not loving that genre. The FOMO is so bad but I’m pretty sure I won’t enjoy it

Love it when a pre- order arrives to cheer up my day!

I’ve seen people say if you like Katy Brent’s or books like don’t swipe right then you’ll love this. I love those books and their dark humour so really excited to read this one.
