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

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

Most Anticipated Reads: First Half of 2017

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature at The Broke a nd the Bookish . This week's theme : most an ti cipated reads for the first half of 2017. Wow, it's been ages since I've done a most anticipated list! In case you were wondering, my excitement for upcoming books is a s high as ever. It was so hard narrowing this list down to just ten, but I think I figured out the ten books that I'm most excited for in the first half of next year! I have a good mix of sequels and standalones (but onl y one debut, so there won't b e a lo t of overlap wi th the de buts TTT in a few weeks). Here are some of the books that I just can't contain my excitement about : OUR OWN PRIVATE UNIVERSE by Robin Talley - January 31: I love Robin Talley, and this book sounds like it's going to be so good! And it's going to have so much intersectionality! And the colors on that cover are just so aesthetically pleasing. DREAMLAND BURNING by Jennifer Latham - February

My Ten Most Disappointing Reads

As I've read more books, I've generally gotten better at telling whether I'm going to like a book before I read it. Sometimes, though, books trick me - I look at them, think I'm going to love them, and then I don't. That really annoys me, but it makes for good post material - basically, this whole post is going to be me venting about books I really wanted to love. THE WINNER'S CURSE by Marie Rutkoski: I heard so many great things about this series - I still do - and I just don't get it. I read the first book, and I didn't care about anything that was going on, and at this point, there's no way that I'm finishing the series. DASH & LILY'S BOOK OF DARES by Rachel Cohn & David Levithan: I couldn't even finish this one, and you guys know how rarely I DNF books. I thought this was going to be a really cute holiday story, and I've really liked other David Levithan books, but by the time I was just a few chapters in I
