Part of my excitement for reading advance reader copies (ARCs) is being able to prepare for books that will be coming out later in the year and share in their excitement! Here are some books that will be coming out in August 2026 that I’m looking forward to (some of which I have ARCs for!!). Let me know if there’s any you’re also excited for! Can’t wait to dive in 🙂
I have ARCs for all but two of these so will be specifically highlighting the ARCs below!!
- Left on Read by Marissa Eller
- Grateful to Holiday House for providing me with an eARC of this book! I love rivals to lovers, even more so in an academic setting and I can’t wait to dive in
- Keeping Score by Brittany Kelley
- I actually squealed when I got this email from Berkley because I was invited to participate in a blog tour for this book! If you know me, you know I loved watching football and now I can’t wait to read about it in a romance setting
- Embrace by Bal Khabra
- My very first Berkley approval, this book holds a special place in my heart. Scarlett and Kian’s friends-to-lovers story is so adorable, I loved their relationship
- Where Wilted Flowers Bloom by Johanna Rojas Vann
- I remember crying when I read this book because I really felt Sandra’s pain of losing her child. But this book was so encouraging and shows how God can meet us even in our deepest sorrow
- The Cozy Nook Bookshop by Jeannie Chin
- While this wasn’t my favorite, I quite enjoyed Emma’s growth arc and seeing her transition out of her people pleasing ways.
Have a wonderful weekend! Stay blessed x
