September might be the unofficial start of sweater weather, but for readers, it’s the official kickoff to cozy season, when our TBR stacks get taller, our mugs stay full, and our reading pace suddenly doubles(hopefully). This month’s publishing lineup is stacked with twisty thrillers, heart-tugging romances, and atmospheric stories perfect for curling up with as…

August 2025 BOTM Predictions
As the summer heat lingers and the back-to-school buzz starts creeping in, August often brings a curious mix of sun-drenched reads and introspective storytelling. It’s the perfect time for transitional fiction books that sit at the intersection of breezy and bold, comfort and complexity. August BOTM selections traditionally offer a blend of buzzy debuts, big-name…
July 2025 BOTM Predictions
Ahh, July, that sweet spot where beach reads, thrillers, and summer romances converge in perfect harmony. BOTM usually brings a mix of light, fun, twisty, and emotional this time of year, and I’m hoping this month is no different. As always, these are just predictions: part gut feeling, part publishing patterns, part wishful thinking, but…
June 2025 | BOTM Predictions
Summer is right around the corner, which means it’s officially time for sunshine, iced coffees, and the ultimate bookworm dilemma—what to pack in that beach bag! As always, I’m here with my June 2025 Book of the Month predictions, because nothing says “start of summer” like trying to guess which new releases are going to…
May 2025 | BOTM Predictions
Welp, I sat down to put my predictions together last week and ended up never finishing them; but that is life with a toddler. Anyway, I don’t have any spoilers at this moment but DM me later on this month and I’m always happy to share once I know. May in general has a massive…
March 2025 BOTM Predictions
March is such a big month for publishing and there are so many good books coming out that choosing 2-3 books for each genre was not an easy task, but I did my best! I’ve read a few of my predictions so far but have copies of most of the others. I’m entirely backlogged on…
February 2025 BOTM Predictions
January is flying by and even with February being the shortest month of the year, the list of books I’m excited for releases in February is not short. Black History Month and Valentine’s Day both fall within February, so I expect to see a solid romance pick for the holiday, and potentially a handful of…
January 2025 BOTM Predictions
The publishing world is kicking off 2025 with a bang! The sheer number of books on my TBR that release in January is ridiculous, and so many of them feel like they would make excellent BOTM picks. With so many interesting books coming out in January, I think we’ll see mostly January releases, though I…
August 2024 BOTM Predictions
Better late than never right! Less than a month until our Twins are here and honestly, we are just swamped with getting things done and ready for their arrival. Extremely late with predictions for August, but the bonus is that I have quite a few confirmed picks, so if you enjoy SPOILERS send me over…
July 2024 BOTM Predictions
There are so many interesting books coming out in July and quite a few repeat BOTM authors that have books coming out and that have just come out. As much as I love some of our repeat BOTM authors, I’m hoping for some out of the blue picks and debuts. You’ll also notice quite a…
