New Loves: Valentine’s Day Romance Books
It’s Valentine’s Day! Are you looking for a new romance book in the library to celebrate? I have three great ideas for you.
My first recommendation is Love Somebody.
This book was written by Rachel Roasek.
This book was published in 2022.
Love Somebody talks about different characters that have different opinions of what they like and very different love lives.
Sam is looking for someone who is interesting to talk to and her interests are acting, playwriting, and getting out of Massachusetts. Christian is looking for something more serious. He is interested in soccer, friends, and family. Ros, is looking for absolutely nothing and her interests are photography, violin, and classic literature.
Sam, Christian, and Ros all have different opinions on love-but when a scheme to get Christian his dream girl backfires, they’ll each need to decide if love is enough to change their mind.
My second recommendation is And They Lived…
This book was written by Steven Salvatore.
This book was published in 2022.
And They Lived… is a fairytale-inspired YA novel that celebrates first love and self-acceptance, perfect for those new to the genre. One reader commented “My heart didn’t stand a chance. I loved it from once upon a time all the way to its joyfully complex ever after.”
My third recommendation is It All Comes Back to You.
This book was written by Farah Naz Rishi.
This book was published in 2021.
It All Comes Back to You talks about two exes who must revisit their past after their siblings start dating. This book is a rom-com perfect for Valentine’s Day!

I enjoyed how you described each book and gave just enough information so I could know what each book was about but didn’t feel as if they were spoiled.

These recommendations were short and got to the point. I liked the diversity in recommendations if that is who is in the relationships, what the storyline is, and the characters. These were great books for those who like to get into the holiday.
