Fresh Batch, posted weekly, keeps you up to date on the hottest releases of the upcoming week.

Flavor of the week:

What I Thought Was True
Huntley Fitzpatrick
Publication date: April 15th 2014
by Dial Books for Young Readers

Goodreads Purchase

From the author of My Life Next Door comes a swoony summertime romance full of expectation and regret, humor and hard questions.

Gwen Castle’s Biggest Mistake Ever, Cassidy Somers, is slumming it as a yard boy on her Nantucket-esque island this summer. He’s a rich kid from across the bridge in Stony Bay, and she hails from a family of fishermen and housecleaners who keep the island’s summer people happy. Gwen worries a life of cleaning houses will be her fate too, but just when it looks like she’ll never escape her past—or the island—Gwen’s dad gives her some shocking advice. Sparks fly and secret histories unspool as Gwen spends a gorgeous, restless summer struggling to resolve what she thought was true—about the place she lives, the people she loves, and even herself—with what really is.

A magnetic, push-me-pull-me romance with depth, this is for fans of Sarah Dessen, Jenny Han, and Deb Caletti.

    Oh man, so many good looking books here! I’ve already read The Geography and Don’t Look Back, so I’ll be recommending those this week, and I’m excited to see the reviews of To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before because I really want a copy of it! Damn lack of money in bank.. The next weeks are so exciting for new releases, yipee 😀

  2. Amy @ Book Loving Mom

    Eeep!! The Forever Song!! I need that book!!!! I have The School for Good and Evil: A World Without Princes, but I really want to listen to the audio because the first one on audio was fabulous!! Of course I will need to get the actual hardcover book too because it’s so pretty!!

  3. Mel@thedailyprophecy

    I can’t wait to read A world without princes! I liked the first book 🙂 The looking glass is also high on my wish list. I loved The forever song and need to get myself copies from this series. I’ve heard good things about Don’t look back, so I need to look into that one soon 🙂

    So many great books coming out this week! A pair of them I’ve read the ARCs for already but I have Frozen and House of Ivy and Sorrow preordered and already got my preorder for Don’t Look Back!

  5. Faye @ The Social Potato

    I am ABSOLUTELY looking forward to Jenny Han’s To All the Boys I’ve Loved before. I read her other series with the three young women in it and they were so enjoyable for me, so I have complete and utter faith in her writing prowess. Plus, the premise is one of the most interesting I’ve encountered in a while!
