The books are perfect for the spring season! 🌸
This post’s alternate title could easily – books featuring nature 😅 To me spring is all about things turning green again! It’s been a long, dreary winter and I’m ready for color and sunshine. So when I think of spring books I think rainy vibes, wilderness settings, and sunshine characters.
Here are some books that fit this vibe, and I think would be perfect for this transition season!

I must read The Lost Apothecary. It’s been on my list for a while and I keep saying I’ll get to it but I never do. Determined for Spring to be the time I do 🙂

I keep picking up and putting down HOSAS cause I’m scared I’ll be scared? I did that with City of Ghosts by Victoria Schwab before I decided to just finish the book and now I’m obsessed with the series. HOPING the same happens with HOSAS lol! The Lost Apothecary was my BOTM pick this month!

We’re reading The Lost Apothecary for my bookclub, and I cannot wait to read it. Also given how much I loved Thomas’ “Cemetery Boys”, I am very excited for “Lost in the never woods”
