Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard (2/10)
Date: February 10
Two adjectives I most commonly hear associating with this book: addicting and surprising. Two of my favorite words!
The Winner's Crime by Marie Rutkoski
Date: March 3
Again, I'm dying at the gorgeous cover. Whoever has been charge for this series is doing one heck of a job. But really, the first book was everything so I'm desperate to get more.
The Orphan Queen by Jodi Meadows
Date: March 10
Three words: spy, orphan, queen. THAT IS ALL. (There's also a really big cliffhanger, soooo)
Shadow Scale by Rachel Hartman
Date: March 10
I'm pretty sure the first book, Seraphina, was published in another lifetime because of how long we have had to wait for this sequel! A reread is definitely in order, and then I'll start this beautiful thing.
The Second Guard by J.D. Vaughn
Date: April 15
Just give me all the fantasy. All of it, don't stop.
Things We Know by Heart by Jessi Kirby
Date: April 21
This one deals with a heart transplant and feels very similar to Return to Me, a Minnie Driver movie.
Conspiracy of Blood and Smoke by Anne Blankman
Date: April 21
Another sequel where I'll have to read the first one again because I feel like it's been forever. But hey, no complaints over the rereading here.
The Girl at Midnight by Melissa Grey
Date: April 28
The cover kind of hurts my eyes, but I don't think I've seen a negative review on this one. I know there must be one out there, but there's just a lot of squealing in my corner of the world. And it's fantasy. So I'm expecting great things.
Lying Out Loud by Kody Keplinger
Date: April 28
I'm expecting lots of laughter. I need this joy in my life.
Made You Up by Francesca Zappia
Date: May 19
And after I receive the joy, I'll go onto a more somber read. This deals with schizophrenia and I can't think of a better example for an original, diverse book.
Scarlett Undercover by Jennifer Latham
Date: May 19
POC alert! POC alert! I honestly didn't notice the girl until after I read the amazing synopsis. Bonus.
Shadow Scale!!! I plan to read it next, and I did reread Seraphina first! It was a wonderful life decision. Hope you get to read some of these books as school wraps up!
ReplyDeleteLet me just tell you - you're totally in for a treat when it comes to The Winner's Crime, The Orphan Queen, and Shadow Scale! I really enjoyed all 3 of those books :)
ReplyDeleteGreat picks, Summer! I, too, am dying for The Orphan Queen, Conspiracy of Blood and Smoke, Things We Know by Heart, and Scarlett Undercover. And The Winner's Crime is ah-mazing.
