Remember, on these lists, I don’t just share a dump of books from publishers’ release catalogs. I share the books I’ve read, enjoyed, and wholeheartedly recommend!
Since many of my favorite June releases are in this year’s Summer Reading Guide, I won’t be rehashing those. I do, however, recommend taking a look at the guide just to check if any of your highly anticipated Summer Reading Guide releases (like The Best Worst Summer of Esme Sun) are releasing this month. I’m sharing a handful of June new releases that I enjoyed, but didn’t make it into the guide because I either missed them or didn’t think they were a good fit. You’ll find a wonderful mix of action and adventure, graphic novels, young adult literature, and illustrated books for younger middle grade readers.
