With Valentine’s day just around the corner, February is the perfect month to play book matchmaker and help your students fall in love with reading. It’s never too late to try a new reading routine, whether it’s book speed dating or Book Trailer Tuesday. The latter is one of my favorite hacks for helping students find good books fast. Luckily, there are some absolutely delightful YA romance books to recommend this month, and their book trailers do not disappoint!
If you’re unfamiliar with Book Trailer Tuesday, it’s a super simple strategy that gets readers hooked on books in less than 3 minutes. It’s as simple as it sounds: Each Tuesday, press play on a new book trailer, and watch your students fall in love with more books than ever before!
