Ten Most Anticipated Releases for the 2nd Half of 2016
Top Ten Tuesdays are hosted by The Broke and the Bookish, where we make lists of our top ten books (or something else!) based on that week’s prompt. The topics are provided ahead of time and can be found here. Book links bring you to Goodreads or my review.
This weeks topic is: Top Ten Most Anticipated Releases For The Second Half Of The Year (since we did a topic about the releases we were excited about for the first half of 2016 back in the beginning of the year) Feel free to tweak it how you want to — like most anticipated fantasy for the second half of 2016 or debut authors. Whatever you want! I will be going along the same lines as my first post and including my most anticipated releases from July through December, encompassing all genres I read. Also, let’s talk about how I read exactly half of the books I highlighted in that earlier post. I kind of suck but that’s better than usual. I also DNFed another but let’s NOT talk about that part.
The Secret of a Heart Note by Stacey Lee ♥ December
This one is definitely one of my top exciting releases. It just sounds so unique and fun to me!
Truly Madly Guilty by Liane Moriarty ♥ July
I’m a big fan of Liane Moriarty and am excited for this one, even though I have a lot of her backlist to read still.
PS I Like You by Kasie West ♥ July
No secret how much I love Kasie West. I still have one backlist title to read but this sounds perfect.
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child by JK Rowling ♥ July
Likeeee honestly do we even have to talk about this one? I really don’t think so. Bye.
The Amateurs by Sara Shepard ♥ November
Sara Shepard has written some of my all-time favorites. I hope this new series is just as good!
The Sun is Also a Star by Nicola Yoon ♥ July
Her debut completely blew me away. The cover for this one is just as gorgeous too! HELP.
All in Pieces by Suzanne Young ♥ November
Suzanne Young has become one of my auto-buys for sure. I can’t wait for this one.
How to Make Out by Brianna Shrum ♥ September
Sigh. I miss the old cover. It was so much cuter. Still pumped I GUESSSS
What Light by Jay Asher ♥ October
Surprisingly this will be my first Jay Asher book, but it sounds excellent and Christmassy!
Sometimes We Tell the Truth by Kim Zarins ♥ September
No hype surrounding this one yet, but I am JAZZED THE HELL UP about a Canterbury Tales retelling.
I’m looking forward to so many of these myself! The Secret of a Heart Note is one I can’t wait to read because I’ve loved all her books so far. And yes to P.S I Like You and The Sun Is Also a Star. I’m dying to get my hands on those. I keep checking to see if they might be on NG, but I doubt they’ll be there.
Oh I love Suzanne Young too! Did you see All In Pieces was on Edelweiss?
I need Crooked Kingdom like yesterday! But I’m also terrified of how it’s going to end and who is not going to make it out alive.
This is such a pretty post! 🙂
I know!! I really wish I got approved for the review copy of that one. For some reason I haven’t stopped thinking about it (and I love that cover!)
Oooh I need to go for ALL IN PIECES on there!
Thank you <3
I’m excited to read The Amateurs as well. I LOVE Sara Shepard. I mean, sure some of her series go WAY TOO LONG…. but I need books like hers in my life. I also can’t wait to read What Light. I LOVE Jay Asher!! I hope you like your first of his books. AND I also am pretty pumped for Wrecked, Replica, Gemina, and Heartless. 2016 is such a good book year 🙂
I love her too and I totally agree! Definitely a bit too long at times but still suuuuper addicting.
A GREAT BOOK YEAR
Oh there are so many here I agree with you on!! Even if they weren’t on my list most of these are ones I am looking forward to getting to at some point. My Unscripted Life, How to Make Out and Leave Me are all ones I have and I forgot to have on my list. I should have just went over 10!! Great list!!
I had to give more than 10 – too many books!
I cannot wait to read Gemina!! I’m hoping it’s as suspenseful, creepy, and thrilling as Illuminae! Great list!
Eeek I know same here!!
Nice! I love that you didn’t stick to just 10 books. I was hard to choose. I left off my BEA books, so I could mention some others that I am looking forward to. So many great authors have books coming out this year. Happy Reading!
I had to go more – I couldn’t resist!
I was originally going to leave off the books I currently have ARCs for but some were books I’m TOO excited for to ignore! 😉
So many of my favorite authors are publishing books this year – I’m so excited! I’ve already got my hands on by books by Joe Hill and Stephen King.
Awesome! Same here – lots of books from favorites.
I’m really excited for Crooked Kingdom, but also for Nicola Yoon’s new book. I loved the writing in Everything, Everything so I’m excited to see what else she’s got.
Yes, same here!
Of the books you listed, I’m DYING for Crooked Kingdom and the new Harry Potter book, of course ^_^ Lovely list, thank you for sharing!
Brittany @ Brittany’s Book Rambles
Ahhh I know I can’t wait!
Crooked Kingdom is also on my list! I can’t wait to see what happened next with Kaz & co 😀
Yesss same!!
I’m definitely excited about a bunch of these titles too! In particular, I’m dying to have a copy of Crooked Kingdom already because Six of Crows was my favorite book of 2015. And obviously, I need Cursed Child because HARRY POTTER FOREVER <3
YESSSS
YESS to the Secret of the Heart Note! I am so pumped for that one. And I am now checking out this Sometimes We Tell The Truth, solely because there is a dolphin on the cover. Ok fine, and you said you were excited for it and I haven’t seen it anywhere.
Haha I hope it piques your interest!
