Hii, everyone ♡ I am a very big fan of the booktuber @caricanread so I thought I would make a list of all the books she has read this year! ✰

Be the trend setter of your book club or bookish friend group by getting to know the authors of next year’s publication cycle. These books are all by new talent in the publishing world from both the Big 5 and small, traditional publishers.

Be sure to also check out these authors on social media for ARC opportunities, and show these authors some love by requesting a purchase with your local library, or pre-ordering a copy yourself!

My wife (@zielstarfallen) is a vet tech and may or may not be starting a project to read all the fiction books they can find about veterinarians and vet techs in order to find the most accurate representations of their profession.

I, being the helpful, list-obsessed audhd partner that i am, am avoiding my own tbr by deep-diving for recommendations for them 🥰🥰

Recommendations welcome!
