Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature hosted by Brokeandbookish. This week’s theme is a Top Ten Most Anticipated Releases for the First Half of 2016. If book blogging has done something for me, it’s making me add books to my TBR. All the time. Books that aren’t even released, yet. Like every bookworm out there, there’s a MOUNTAIN of books I can’t wait to read…so let’s take a look at some of those! Don’t forget to click on the title of the books to read their fabulous synopsis!
1 • The Love That Split The World, Emily Henry
This is going to come out as very superficial, but, have you seen that GORGEOUS cover? This is not why I added this book to my TBR, though. If you haven’t read the synopsis of that book yet, go do so, right now. And add it to your TBR, because it sounds fantastic.
2 • Glass Sword, Victoria Aveyard
Despite having some issues with it, I really enjoyed reading Red Queen, and I’m obviously looking forward to reading the second book, because I am CURIOUS. I really hope it keeps on getting better, and that we’ll discover – and get mad some more – at new characters.
3 • The Unexpected Everything, Morgan Matson
I LOVE all of the Morgan Matson’s books I’ve read so far, so I can see no reason why I shouldn’t love this one. Contemporary, politics, rumors, scandal… a little bit of everything I like -except politics, but I can take it, I think-, so yay!.
4 • You Were Here, Cory McCarthy
This one doesn’t sound very funny, as it’s dealing with grief, but I really like the way it’s supposed to be done. With unfinished dares. I love the idea behind this book, and I hope the execution will be done as well.
5 • Radio Silence, Alice Oseman
I already said it before, I really liked Alice Oseman’s debut, Solitaire, and I can’t help but be impatient for this second novel. It’s about school pressure, and oh, how I want and need to read a book dealing with that.
6 • Even if the Sky Falls, Mia Garcia
Another gorgeous cover here, and a story that I’m sure I can love. It’s contemporary, it’s romance, it’s dealing with two people falling in love and we should know how that ends. But I still love it, and I need to read it.
7 • With Malice, Eileen Cook
An accident, a memory-loss…this intriguing story really caught my attention. What really happened to the main character, what mystery are we trying to uncover here? I NEED to know more.
8 • Enter Title Here, Rahul Kanakia
A book about someone living her life, and trying to write a book out of it. It’s an ambitious, and one of a kind story I can’t wait to discover.
9 • Gena/Finn, Hannah Moskovitz & Kat Helgelson
I really like and want to read more about character meeting each other thanks to internet, and new technologies. Building up a friendship online, and all the struggles and moments of happiness that comes with that. Gena/Finn seems like the perfect book for that.
10 • Bookishly Ever After, Isabel Bandeira
A lot of people talked about this book, and I’m not the exception, sorry. But, the main character in this LOVES books. She reads. She day-dreams about book-boyfriends. It’s like reading the story of my life.
Awesome list! I can’t tell you how excited I am for Glass Sword!
Thank you! <3 I can't wait to read that book either, I need to know what happens next, NOW! 😀
Ooh, Bookishly Ever After might have to be one I read, lol!! Did my fair share of daydreaming about book boyfriends! My TTT
Haha, that’s exactly one of the reasons why I want to read it, haha, because I did, and still do, so much daydreaming sometimes :p Thank you so much for stopping by! <3
I can’t wait for Morgan Matson’s new book. They’re always so fun to read! This new one seems especially intriguing. Great list! 🙂
Yaay! I love all of her books, I hope this one will be just as good! 😀 Thank you so much Holly! <3
I’m looking forward to the Glass Sword, too!
Yaay, I’m so glad to hear that!! I hope we’ll both love it! 🙂
Thank you for your comment! <3
I’m not at all surprised that you included Morgan Matson’s book in this T10T post, hehe. And Bookishly Ever After is one I’m really looking forward to as well. Fingers crossed it’ll be just as epic and swoonworthy as the premise sounds! “It’s like the story of my life.” Totally, mine too! 😉
You know me too well, Summer! 😉 Yees, fingers crossed, it sounds so good, I hope it won’t be disappointing! 😀
Really awesome list, Marie! You already know that we have a couple of them in common 😉 but I think the other books are great too. I remember that I requested an arc for Gena/Finn on NetGalley and that I didn’t get it 🙁 but I still want to read it. That one and Enter Title Here!
Thank you so so much Kat! <3 Oh, no 🙁 I hope you'll still read that book, it sounds really good! 😀
I am sure I will read it at some point 🙂
Yaay!! We should buddy-read sometime, that would be awesome! 😀
We keep saying that! I would really like to at some point <3 we just have to have the right book at the same time 😀
YES we do! Well, next time I’ll order some new books, I’ll let you know, so we can try and have the same books at the same time to read! 😀
Good plan! 🙂
And obviously, I’ll let you know about my next purchases as well hahaha
Haha, yes!! 😀
These books have very beautiful covers 😀
They really do. I’ll tell you a secret, that’s why I want all of them on my shelves! :p I’m kidding, haha, I love their synopsis, obviously…and those covers are a great bonus, I can’t deny it :p
Thank you so much for your comment! <3
Lol! I can’t wait to see what you think of them 🙂 You’re very welcome 😀
Enter Title Here sounds so interesting; I hadn’t heard of it before so thanks for flagging it up here. I’ve read the first few chapters of You Were Here and it’s really grabbing me so far. Great list!
You’re welcome, I’m so happy if you found another book to add to your TBR! 😀 Ohh, that’s so great! I can’t wait to hear your thoughts when you read it all!
Thank you for stopping by!! <3
I too had some problems with Red Queen but I still really liked it. For some reason, I’m getting really good feelings about Glass Sword. I think it’s going to be a step above! And I can’t believe I forgot Morgan Matson’s new book on my list! It sounds wonderful and her covers are gorgeous. Great list!
I am, too, I really hope it’s going to meet our expectations! 😀 I really love all of the Morgan Matson’s books covers, too 🙂 Thank you so much Liam! <3
AHH. So many fabulous books here Marie! I am so excited for Glass Sword and I’m crossing my fingers it is as amazing as Red Queen was. And Enter Title Here sounds absolutely amazing too. xD Thanks for sharing and, as always, fabulous post! <3
Thank you so much Zoe! <3 I'm really crossing my fingers about that book, too, I'm so impatient! 😀
Thank you so much for your sweet comment! <3
You definitely have the prettiest covers this week with your list!
I have to add With Malice to my TBR–LOVE those type of mystery books!
Thank you so much Lauren! <3 You're right, those covers are gorgeous, one more reason for me to want those on my shelves, haha! :p I love those kind of books, too, I can't wait to read it! 😀
So many great sounding novels are coming out in the first half of 2016! I am positively excited for each and every one of these and I even added a few more to my TBR (which is now overflowing! Agh)
Right?! It’s crazy, how many 2016 books I want to read. I feel like I’m never going to be able to read it all, but I WANT TO. We can do this, we will read ALL THE BOOKS next year! 😀
Thank you Josie!! <3
Oh Glass Sword…how I hope you do not fall into the same problems as your predecessor… (here’s to hoping it turns out better than a 1-2 star read for me LOL).
Cheers,
Joey via. thoughts and afterthoughts.
Haha, let’s hope so! I still enjoyed it, but YES, there were problems I do not want to see in Glass Sword. I have high hopes. Let’s hope they’re not, TOO HIGH, haha :p
Thank you for stopping by, Joey! 😀
Ooh there are some on here that I now really want to read. My TBR always suffers on a Top Ten Tuesday!
Haha, mine too! Top Ten Tuesday posts are always making me add SO many books to my TBR…but well, we can never have too many books, can we 😀
Thank you for stopping by <3
Well most of these books are actually *not* on my tbr for 2016. Like I hadn’t even heard of a lot of them so thank you for putting together this post lol. I threw together a list of books being published next year and consulted a bunch of random blogs and goodreads list…and basically thought I’d found every book I was interested in reading. Then I saw this post……Anyway, I’m really excited to read Enter Title Here (I think the author may be Indian?? I’ve been meaning to read more Indian authors..). I’ll be keeping an eye out for Gena/Finn (which is actually by one of my favorite authors!..whoops :P) and With Malice.
Well, I’m really happy if you discovered some new books, then! 😀 Yes, I think the author is Indian, but I’m not sure, I need to check that! 🙂
Thank you so much for your comment Rachana!! <3
Again, Glass Sword!! Great list 🙂
Yees! I can’t wait! 😀 Thank you so much! <3
The wait is definitely the worst!! 🙂
It really is…but we can do this!! 😀
Seems like a big ask…
Nooo, don’t think like that! We’ll support each other while we wait! 😀
Sounds good 🙂
Bookishly Ever After! I was sold as soon as I read ‘hottest guy in the clarinet section.’ That is THE BEST.
I think I need to read some Morgan Matson next year. I’ve heard so many good things about her writing. I have read nothing about 2016 releases, so this TTT is very helpful for me.
Haha, that really is! Yes, you should, I think she’s one of my favorite contemporary authors, I loved all of her stories so far 🙂 I’m so glad this is helpful to you then!
Thank you so much for stopping by Lydia <3
So many fabulous choices! TLTSTW is SO GOOD. I mean, I agree that the cover is stunning (one of my favorites for 2016 so far!) but the inside is just as wonderful! I am so excited for the rest of these too, especially Even if the Sky Falls and Bookishly Ever After and Enter Title Here! Hope you enjoy all of these 🙂
Awww, I’m so glad to hear you like TLTSTW, it makes me even more impatient to read it 😀
Thank you so much! <3
