Most Anticipated Releases of 2016

This year is a very exciting year for new releases and I cannot wait to tell you about the books I'm most looking forward to!


This first one is Glass Sword which is a sequel to Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard. I'm not going to describe this book as it is a second in a series but Red Queen is about a world that is divided by people with red blood and silver blood. The reds are average and low class but the silvers have superhuman powers.
It is going to be released on February 9th.




Stars Above: A Lunar Chronicles Collection

The next one is Stars Above by Marissa Meyer. It is a collection of stories that follow the Lunar Chronicles series. This book goes into the past of some of the characters and since this is one of my favourite series I cannot wait to get this book.
It's expected to be released on February 2nd.



The Rose and the Dagger (The Wrath and the Dawn, #2)



The Rose and the Dagger is the second book to The Wrath and The Dawn by Renee Ahdieh. I reviewed the first book recently and I absolutely loved it!! Again, I'm not going to go into the plot line but you can look at my other review if you're interested in this series.
It will be released on May 3rd.





Heartless

Heartless by Marissa Meyer is another book I like the sound of. I'm willing to try anything by Marissa Meyer and this new series of hers sounds very interesting. It's a retelling of Alice in Wonderland but follows the Queen of Hearts as a girl.
It's release date is November 8th.






A Court of Mist and Fury (A Court of Thorns and Roses, #2)



A Court of Mist and Fury is yet another book I want to read this year. It's the next book to A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas. It's a fantasy book with Fey and it follows a girl named Feyre. I've reviewed the first book already on this blog so check out that if you'd like.
It's supposed to be released on May 3rd.



The Last Star



The last major book I'm anticipating is The Last Star by Rick Yancey. It is the final book to The 5th Wave which movie is actually coming out this month! I've reviewed the first book of this series on this blog as well so please go look that up after this, but basically this series is full of action and aliens and great characters.
It's coming out on May 24th.




This list is definitely not complete but these are some of the best ones I'm most excited for. I might make a further list of books at a later date as I don't want to make this post too long and boring for you guys to read. If you would like another list please leave a comment to let me know what you'd like.

NEW TWILIGHT BOOK!!!

Hello!
I just found out that a new Twilight book is being released for it's 10th anniversary! It's called Life and Death and although it is still Twilight, the genders of the main characters have been switched! For example, Edward is now Edythe and Jacob is Julie. The new story is told by Beau, who is the male, Twilight equivalent of Bella Swan.

The 10th anniversary edition of Twilight is now released and the book’s cover is so special it has the cover of the first Twilight on the front but the back reveals the cover for Life and Death also the first half of the book is Twilight but then it flips around and turns into the new book, Life and Death!!

I'm so excited to read this book and I hope I'll be able to review it after I do!!!

If you read this book soon, tell me what you thought. I'd love to know.

Holidays!!

Image result for stack of booksHi everyone,

I went to Italy this summer for two weeks. It was so amazing and I got to read so much. In total I read 18 books over the two weeks, which I think is a record for me!  

I also think this summer was the best ever from a reading point of view. I had a lot of time for it since my summer holidays are now longer in secondary school. I'm back to school in a week but I'll still read a good bit and do posts.

I hope you all had a great summer!

Book Shopping!!

Hello everyone, recently I went book shopping in Hodges Figgis on Dawson Street, Dublin. I spent two hours browsing while my mother went to have a coffee with a friend. I love looking around bookshops and often I just take a list of books to get on my kindle but every once in a while I like to buy the real thing to put on my shelf.

On this trip I got a total of seven books. I selected;
1. Beautiful Creatures by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl,
2. The Assassin's Blade by Sarah J. Maas,
3. Simon Vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli,
4. A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas,
5. Seeker by Arwen Elys Dayton,
6. Dorothy Must Die by Danielle Paige,
7. Noughts and Crosses by Malorie Blackman.

So far out of this list I have read The Assassin's Blade and am in the middle of A Court of Thorns and Roses. I am planning to review each book once I'm finished reading them and if you have read any of them I would love to hear what you thought.
