Most Anticipated October Releases

Apparently any regular posting schedule on this blog is a thing of fantasy, and I'm okay with that (at least for now). But even if I don't have a regular schedule, I'm going to try and post as much as I can through Blogtober! I found out about this challenge through Jenn @ Jenniely, and I'm so happy I found it before October officially starts!

For today, it's time to talk about my most anticipated October releases, and there sure are a lot of them! It's a FANTASTIC month for YA releases, and I can't wait to get my hands on these!


THE LADY'S GUIDE TO PETTICOATS AND PIRACY by Mackenzi Lee - October 2nd
 • Felicity was one of my favorite parts of book one, so I fully expect to love her solo book even more
 • I always want more queer historical fiction
 • AROACE MAIN CHARACTER, THIS IS NOT A DRILL



THE SPY WITH THE RED BALLOON by Katherine Locke - October 2nd
 • ok so I've already read this but I HAVE to talk about it
 • queer Jewish siblings punching Nazis
 • absolutely broke my heart I love it so much  

BENEATH THE CITADEL by Destiny Soria - October 9th
 • I LOVED Destiny Soria's debut, IRON CAST (my review here)
 • I've heard nothing but good things about this one so far
 • fantasy with an ensemble cast is always great  


BLANCA & ROJA by Anna-Marie McLemore - October 9th
 • Snow White and Rose Red is one of my favorite fairy tales ever!!
 • I've read Anna-Marie McLemore's short stories but not any of her novels yet and I really want to!

ODD ONE OUT by Nic Stone - October 9th
 • DEAR MARTIN was one of the first books I read this year and one of the best, so I can't wait to see how Nic Stone will wreck me next
 • I say I'm sick of love triangles but I really don't mean it, especially if they're queer 



WHAT IF IT'S US by Becky Albertalli and Adam Silvera - October 9th
 • seriously do I need to say anything about this
 • Becky Albertalli and Adam Silvera have both written some of my favorite books
 • I was hoping for this before it was even a thing

What are some of your most anticipated October releases? Tell me in the comments!

Ten Books I Wouldn't Mind Getting for Chanukah

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature at The Broke and the Bookish. This week's theme: Top Ten Books You Wouldn't Mind Santa Leaving Under Your Tree (with a slight alteration). I'm probably one of the easiest people to shop for. If you have the link to my Goodreads, you're basically guaranteed to get me something I'll like. (And even if you don't, I'm really not hard to please.) But, of course, there are some books that I'm more excited for than others. Here are ten that I would be absolutely thrilled to get as gifts this year. GEMINA by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff: The more I think about how great this book is going to be, the more I want it. And it's so pretty! P.S. I LIKE YOU by Kasie West: I love Kasie West! Her contemporaries are all so adorable - I can't believe I haven't read this one yet. THE SECRET KEEPERS by Trenton Lee Stewart: Finally, another book from the author of my favorite middle grade series ever! I...

Ten Books I Need More People to Love

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature at The Broke and Bookish. This week's theme: Top Ten Underrated/Hidden Gem Books You've Read in the Past Year or So. One of my favorite things to do is get other people to read books I love. That way, I can discuss the boo ks with them, and if I know their tastes well enough, I know I'm givin g them something that they'll love! Unfortunately, I can't do this with the entire world. And that means that there are books that I've really enjoyed t hat just aren't widely loved. Why ? I don't know. And that's why I spend so much time trying to get other people to read them. Here are ten books I've read some what recently that I think really deserve some m ore lo ve. IRON CAST by Destiny Soria: I'll never get tired of diverse books, I 'll never get tired of historical fiction, and I'll never get tired of positive female friendships. When you pu t those all together, they ma ke a book tha...

Thoughts on Required Reading, Part 2

Last year, I did a post about my thoughts on required reading. This is a rough follow-up to that. It's that time of year again - the start of a new semester! I know my school starts later than most, so if you're a student, you've probably already started. But I just started my classes a couple of days ago...which explains why my Friday post is going up on a day that's definitely not Friday. (Oh, well.) It also means that it's the perfect time to talk about required reading again. Quick recap of the last post: I was required to reread PRIDE AND PREJUDICE , which I'd originally read on my own and loved, and hated it. Update: last semester, I was required to reread THE GREAT GATSBY , another book that I'd originally loved. But this time, the required reread made me love the book even more. But I can't put my finger on anything that made rereading the two books different, except for the fact that I already knew I wanted to reread Gatsby at some p...
