THE PROBLEM: You just finished an amazing YA book and you want to keep that satisfied feeling going, but you don’t know what to read next. Or alternatively, you’ve read something amazing and have been searching for the perfect follow up read, but have come up short every time.

THE SOLUTION: Never fear readers, because Epic Reads is here to solve all your bookish problems. Introducing our weekly feature, “Like, Try, Why”! Each week we’ll pick a few popular books (and sometimes even TV shoes or movies!!) that we adored and then PERSONALLY recommend what to read next. This is no automated feature, this is the real thang y’all. So sit back, relax and let this week’s Like, Try, Why introduce you to your next epic read.

This week, if you like Bad Girls Don’t Die by Katie Alender, try Possess by Gretchen McNeil next! Is Peter Pan by J.M. Barrie one of your absolute favorite classics? Then the new retelling Tiger Lily by Jodi Lynn Anderson should definitely be on your to-be-read list! Finally, if you love a good light-hearted read for summer like All American Girl by Meg Cabot, then you’ll really enjoy Smart Girls Get What They Want by Sarah Strohmeyer!

Stay tuned for another Like, Try, Why next week and if you need a recommendation in the meantime, post your queries on this forum or give us a tweet @EpicReads and use the hashtag #AskEpicGirl!
