Even though Aardvark is great about giving us hints each month so we know what the picks will be before they ‘go live’, I thought it would be fun to start putting together my own predictions based on my reading and experience with Aardvark. This will be my third month doing predictions for Aardvark and if you have recommendations on format or what you’d like to see, feel free to contact me!
Unlike some other book clubs, I feel that Aardvark is a bit more of a wildcard when it comes to their picks. I don’t feel that they ever have a set formula for the genres they pick, but I have noticed the books all tend to have similar ‘vibes’ or similar themes and tones. While they’re also featured some well-known authors, I find that their books tend to be more on the edgy or experimental side and showcase more less known authors. Because of this, I’ve listed my predictions all together instead of breaking them out by genre.
I won’t have confirmed spoiler until later this month, but if you’re interested in finding out what it is, DM me on Instagram @speakingof.books later this month.
Whether or not these are actually picks, only time will tell. Even if they are not, all or most of these are on my March Most Anticipated New Releases, my April Most Anticipated New Release list and my Spring 2025 Most Anticipated.

When the picks are announced and you find you have space in your box still, make sure to also check reviews of all past Aardvark Books that I’ve read HERE or check out my list of all the 2023 picks I read HERE, because who couldn’t use even more books!
Keep in mind that these are simply predictions and books I hope get chosen. I could get these completely wrong, but the anticipation and guessing is part of the fun right?!
May 2024 Predictions
Some very diverse predictions this month and I have no idea if I’m even going to hit the mark this month. I threw a few repeat authors into the mix as well, I have copies of all of these, and while I haven’t read them yet, be on the look out for my reviews all month.
I’m currently hooked on The Safari, I adored the first book in the Vacation Mysteries series so cannot wait to jump into No One Was Suppose to Die at this Wedding, and both Rachel Lynn Solomon and Annabell Moraghan always have such feel good stories!
