Top Ten 2015 Releases I Meant To Get To But Didn’t
This title was the story of my reading life in 2015 – the titles I meant to but didn’t get to 🙂 There were so many books that I intended on reading but since my reading dropped so low last year I just didn’t get around to reading so many of them! I have a huge list but here are the ten (erm… eleven!) that I’ve narrowed it down to…
1. Fairest & Winter by Marissa Meyer • I was holding out on Fairest to read closer to Winter (which I was SO EXCITED about) and then the release came and went and I’ve not yet read either of them!
2. A Court of Thorn and Roses by Sarah J. Maas • I was so excited about this release that I even preordered it! And lo and behold it is still sitting on my shelf staring at me accusingly haha.
3. The Sin Eater’s Daughter by Melinda Salisbury • I was PUMPED for this one. I also preordered this at an amazing price (I think it was less than 3 dollars!), then some not so great reviews came about which I mistakenly read. I’m actually back to being excited about this one because I’ve basically forgetten those reviews that I read so this is definitely one on the list for this year!
4. Nowhere But Here by Katie McGarry • Again, I preorded this as well! I love Katie McGarry and I actually was purposely not reading this because I wanted to finish the Pushing the Limits series last year. Well neither got read haha.
5. The Good Girls by Sara Shepard • AH! Just looking at this cover has me so excited haha. I might pick this up from the library this weekend. I LOVED The Perfectionists and I was dying for this release! Yes… I’m getting it this weekend 😛
6. Queen of Shadows by Sarah J. Maas • This is just… *shakes head*. Sigh. Another preorder. I don’t know what it is about this series. I absolutely LOVE it, but it’s almost like I don’t want to read it. I don’t want to be caught without a book, I don’t want something to happen that will change my views… I’ve never been like this with a series before normally I want to devour it immediately! I’m definitely going to be reading this soon, but I would actually really like to reread the entire series thus far again haha.
7. Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo • Now, I know that this can be read on it’s own (or atleast I have heard?!) but I wanted to finish The Grisha Trilogy first so this will be waiting a little bit longer.
8. The Boy Most Likely To by Huntley Fitzpatrick • YES! I loved My Life Next Door, so I’m sure I will love this too. I actually was just falling into my reading slump (or starting to) when this was released so it was completely off my radar and I just remembered how much I was dying for this one!
9. Carry On by Rainbow Rowell • *cradles to chest* I adored Fangirl, ADORED it. And I wanted to read this over Christmas break when Nick got it for me for Christmas but jeez… where did that break go anyway?! Haha. I might reread Fangirl first also (notice a theme here haha).
10. Secrets in the Grave by Karen Ann Hopkins • Out of all the books on this list, this one might make me the most sad. I have ALWAYS read Karen Ann Hopkin’s books on release date or prior to but this one fell through the cracks. I haven’t even PURCHASED it yet! I adore this series, it’s just… SO. GOOD.
And there we have it. All the books. Well certainly not all of them, but the most wished-I’d-read. Well, now it’s not so bad because I want to read them all so badly now *scoops them up*.
Have you read any of these? Are any of them on your list? Link up your posts!!
LAUREN! Welcome back! You have so many amazing books ahead of you to catch up, and some of my absolute favs of 2015 like Six of Crows, Winter and Queen of Shadow! Enjoy reading 😀
I loooooooved Nowhere But Here. I am currently working my way through her Pushing the Limits series, and I definitely enjoyed Nowhere But Here more. I do still love Noah, though. He is my favourite from that series :). I read The Sin Eater’s Daughter and didn’t enjoy it. But I heard the next book features different characters, so I will still be continuing on with the series, I hope!
Court of Thorns and Roses, Queen of Shadows, Six of Crows…I want to read those books too! Hope you get around to them soon! I know I also have to get around to them… xD The Boy Most Likely To also looks really interesting!
Oh goodness, I see so many books that I’m excited for you to read! Winter (which was a fabulous series ender, and full of swoons and banter and fun), A Court of Thorns and Roses (which is lovely and mysterious and excellent), Nowhere But Here (IT MADE ME LIKE MOTORCYCLE CLUBS), Queen of Shadows (it’s seriously a great addition to the series, even though yes, it’s a game-changer) and Six of Crows (100% in love with this book). Happy reading!
the boy most likely to was really good! it was a little more serious than my life next door but still equally amazing but maybe i’m just biased because i loved tim in the first book. nowhere but here was also really good! i wasn’t sure about the biker club aspect at first but katie mcgarry somehow got me on board and it ended up being a really great read! i still need to read queen of shadows as well for similar reasons you mentioned but also because it is sooo big. i’m going to try to get to it soon but i’m probably going to end up waiting until march break or the summer so i can have lots of time to get through it. happy reading in 2016 lauren! 🙂
this year I am determined to read the Lunar Chronicles! My TTT
Fairest! The book that ended my reading slump! Winter! So, so, so good so far! ACOTAR! I thought that you had read this, how did I miss that??? And QUEEN OF SHADOWS!!!! Well, at least you don’t have to wait so long until the next books comes out?!? (Silver lining). Let’s read Six of Crows together, k?
