YA Summer Reads Bingo – 2017

I really wanted to do a summer reads bingo, but couldn’t find any recent YA ones – so I decided to make my own! I hope you guys enjoy it and are inspired to take part!

Recommendations:

• Please be sure to tag me if you decide to do it so that I can see your wonderful posts or Instagrams! (If you tag me here, be sure to do a pingback to this post so that I receive the notification. My insta handle is @kyeralynn and my Twitter is @kyera if you guys post on there!)
• If you wouldn’t mind tagging other people for it as well, I would be honoured if this spread and more people decided to partake in the bingo.

I decided to dedicate this post to the books that I think I will be applying to each category and we’ll see at the end of the summer if I’ve gotten a bingo, the corners, or even filled the card! Being a mood reader, I expect that I will probably end up reading different books that I initially speculate. Let me know if you have any recommendations for any of the squares, I would love to hear from you guys! Even though summer is technically mid-June to mid-September, I will be counting any books I read from June to August.
