Most Anticipated January 2019 Releases

New year, new books to anticipate! We're still doing this on a month-by-month basis, though - there's just no way I could fit all of my most anticipated books for the year into one post! Here are some of the books that release this month that I'm really excited to read.

IN AN ABSENT DREAM by Seanan McGuire (Wayward Children #4) - January 8:
  • new Wayward Children book!
  • a prequel about Lundy!
  • a new world to explore!!
  • I really don't need to know anything else about this, I've gone into the other books with basically no information and it's all worked out so far

OUR YEAR OF MAYBE by Rachel Lynn Solomon - January 15:
  • ok so I've already read this one, but everyone else has to
  • one of my favorite books of 2018
  • anything Rachel Lynn Solomon writes is my new top priority and should be yours, too
THE GILDED WOLVES by Roshani Chokshi (The Gilded Wolves #1) - January 15: 
  • historical fantasy, which I really want to read more of
  • I love books set in the late 1800s
  • I have heard so many great things already, I'm so excited to dive into this world


CIRCLE OF SHADOWS by Evelyn Skye (Circle of Shadows #1) - January 22:
  • I'm not totally sure what this is about but that's okay, all I need to know is Evelyn Skye
  • apparently inspired by feudal Japan? I've been seeing more non-Western-inspired fantasy worlds lately and I'm excited


A THOUSAND SISTERS: THE HEROIC AIRWOMEN OF THE SOVIET UNION IN WORLD WAR II by Elizabeth Wein - January 22:
  • I need to read more nonfiction and this looks like a great place to start
  • I will also read anything about women pilots - it's a pretty niche genre and I have claimed it


KING OF SCARS by Leigh Bardugo (Nikolai Duology #1) - January 29: 
  • do I even need to explain this one
  • I'm so ready to go back into this world
  • maybe I should reread the other Grishaverse books soon

THE DEAD QUEENS CLUB by Hannah Capin - January 29:
  • Mean Girls meets The Tudors
  • that's all I needed to know and I was sold
  • I have an ARC of this one and I'm definitely reading it ASAP



THE LOVE & LIES OF RUKHSANA ALI by Sabina Khan - January 29:
  • queer Muslim rep!

    I loved Our Year of Maybe too. I was surprised how much I liked it, because it elicited a lot of sad tears from me, but it was just really, really good.

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.

Ten Unique Books I've Read

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature at The Broke and the Bookish . This week's theme: ten of the most unique books I've read! ILLUMINAE by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff: This one's mostly about the way the story is told. I absolutely love how so many different formats are used and how they all come together to form one story! SIX OF CROWS by Leigh Bardugo: No matter how hard I try, I can't think of any books that compare to this. When you combine the setting and the multiple perspectives and the heist aspect, you get something totally unique.   WOLF BY WOLF by Ryan Graudin: Alternate histories aren't really anything new, but alternate histories plus powers plus motorcycle races? Definitely unique. And definitely amazing. THE SCORPIO RACES by Maggie Stiefvater: The weird thing about this book is that it feels kind of familiar, like it should remind me of another book. But it doesn't. I've never read anything quite like it. MORE HAPPY

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
