Now that we are the half way point of June, the sixth month of the year, we are moving towards the second half of the year. There will be a string of interesting book releases coming forward again.
Of course I would lie if I said I wasn’t looking forward to any of these releases. There are various ones that I am keeping my eye on. But these few are my Most Anticipated releases. It is not a long list, but I am most likely going to be pre ordering these, which I can’t say for most of the other new releases coming.
This prompt was given to us by The Broke and the Bookish through Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly meme.
- Heartless by Marissa Meyer – November 8th
I have been looking forward to this book ever since I heard of it, back in 2013 I think it was. I was also quite sad last year when it got pushed back to November of this year. Because, hello, more waiting. But now that we are edging into the second half of this year, we are getting closer and closer. - Crooked Kingdom (Six of Crows 2) by Leigh Bardugo – September 27th
Six of Crows was one of my favourite reads of 2015 so I am looking forward to seeing the conclusion of this duology. - The Creeping Shadow (Lockwood & Co. 4) by Jonathan Stroud – September 13th
You all know by now that I quite like Jonathan Stroud as a writer. While I do prefer the Bartimaeus trilogy over Lockwood, I do really enjoy reading this series. So I can’t wait to see how we continue on from the ending of the third book. I can’t say I am too sure about that cover though compared to the previous three. - The Hammer of Thor (Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard 2) by Rick Riordan – October 4th
Riordan always seems to release a book a week before my birthday so they are always great birthday presents to my self, haha. I’m curious to see how this series will continue. - Frost Like Night (Snow Like Ashes 3) by Sara Raash – September 20th
Another conclusion to a series. While Ice Like Fire was a dissapointment to me, I still try and have high hopes for this third book based on the first book. And I still have high hopes for my favorite character of the series. - A Million Worlds Without You (Firebird 3) by Claudia Gray – November 1st
While this isn’t a favorite series for me, I am still curious to read the conclusion to this trilogy. And those covers do help.
So which of these releases are you looking forward to as well?
Great choices! I am looking forward to all of it!

I need to read Riordan’s Norse series, maybe when that one comes out I’ll read the first two back to back.

Ik ga binnenkort beginnen aan de Firebird reeks en ik hoop dat ik daarna ook zal uitkijken naar het derde deel 😉 en verder kijk ik zelf voornamelijk uit naar Gemina, het vervolg op Illuminae! Helaas komt deze pas in oktober uit.. 😦

Bij mij dus andersom. Ik hoop snel in Illuminae te beginnen en dan ook uit te kijken naar Gemina. 😉 Ik hoop dat je de Firebird boeken leuk vindt! Wachten duurt zo lang. 😦

I still have to read Six of Crows – I have the audio version, and was just looking at it this morning, in fact, trying to decide if I should give it a go. I keep seeing the sequel on everyone’s lists, so I’m thinking I should just do it.

YES to Crooked Kingdom!!! I can’t wait to get my hands on that one! I’m excited for A Million Worlds With You, as well. It’s not my favorite series out there, either but I still enjoy them enough to want to know what happens in the end. And totally agree, that cover doesn’t hurt 😀

I ended up not picking up Ice Like Fire because I heard a lot of mixed things (mostly that my beloved Theron’s character was mishandled), but I might end up picking up the final two books once the conclusion is released later in the year. Great list!

I completely understand that. I was so mad about Theron and it had better be fixed in this third book or I will cry forever. 😦 😉

I am looking forward to the Bardugo duology. I know that you don’t have to read the Grisha trilogy to read these two books, but I still wanted to get Ruin and Rising read before I started something new. I guess I just need to be organized like that. Ha ha. 😁

It’s always more fun to finish another series first that is attached to it. Some things from The Grisha trilogy was mentioned during Six of Crows, so I do think it is better to finish the series before reading it if you have started it already. 🙂
