Hot Off the Presses: New YA Releasing August 13-19

Welcome to Hot Off the Presses!  

Every Tuesday, I tell you about all the great new YA books you can grab in the week to come. If you’re a reviewer, you can also link your blog or Goodreads reviews of any YA book publishing in August so we can all check them out!

We have two relatively quiet August weeks until the new fall releases explode onto the scene!

Hot Off the Presses aims to include every traditionally published YA — if I missed something, please let me know in comments. You are also welcome to link your reviews of YA books that were self-pubbed in August!


The winner of my August giveaway can pick any book up to $15 on either Amazon (for US winner) or The Book Depository (for international winner.) Enter by linking reviews, commenting on linked reviews, or tweeting 🙂 

If I missed anything, let me know in comments!

  1. I really do want to try that Fallen series. I didn't realize another book was coming out. I do have the first 2 books. And I so want to read False Memory! I started it months ago but had to put it down for review books. I'm glad to see the sequel is now out for when I do get to it. 🙂

  2. Woo Hoo, The Devil and The Deep Blue Sea!! I hope that book hits it big! I also want to read The Deepest Night, I really liked the first book in that series, The Sweetest Dark:)

  3. This week I have Hover coming to me in the mail and FINALLY This Girl (Slammed #3)by Colleen Hoover is out in paperback and on it's way to me! I've been waiting so long for the PB release. Can't wait!

    1. Haha!! I loved Hopeless. Get the tissues ready. I have the PB version of Losing Hope (Hopeless #2) pre-ordered. I was so bummed that they're releasing the PB version months after the ebook version. I already finished This Girl yesterday (stayed up really late Tuesday night reading) and I absolutely loved it!

  4. I really want Hover and Forgive Me, Leonard Peacock. I have Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea and can't wait to read it. Stalked by Death by Kelly Hashway released this week from Spencer Hill Press.

  5. I still can't figure out why they chose to pub Between the Devil on a Thursday. It'll have such a hard time getting onto the bestsellers list, even with all the hype it's been generating. Lol, also when you did comment on the review, I smacked my forehead and remembered that I wrote I'd link to your giveaway. Thanks for the little reminder :).

    False sight seems to be controversial and split among reviewers from what I've seen – some liking the new direction, some not. And what??? There's a 5th Fallen book?? I put the omnibus for 3 & 4 in my Salvation Army pile to give away because I still hadn't gotten the chance to read through them, and it's just shocking that the books are still being pubbed. I thought a t.v. mini movie had been made for the books in the 90s? I might be wrong about that though.

    I finally remembered to participate in this meme :). It's really great to have a hub of August YA release links here.

    1. Seriously? Are the publishers trying to mess with my mind? I have the ARC and it clearly says "September 3." But then, yeah, it says some small-print yada yada about "dates subject to change."

      Thanks — I had NO idea this was out and I'm adding it!
