2015 Releases On My Radar

(After discovering lots of other 2015 releases, I added another post on this topic here!)

Hello, book friends! It's time for another Top Ten Tuesday list (hosted by The Broke and the Bookish), though I didn't quite make it to 10 this week. The prompt is:

Top 10 Books I'm Looking Forward to in 2015

Even after browsing the internet and checking out other bloggers' winter TBR lists, I haven't found that many 2015 releases that I'm excited about. I'm sure they will come -- inevitably, in a far higher quantity than I could ever read -- but for now, here's what I've got:
 
1. Wicked Charms by Janet Evanovich
I've been looking forward to the third installment of Janet Evanovich's Wicked series for a couple years now. I'm not crazy about her other new series, and as much as I love Stephanie Plum those books are definitely getting tired. But I really enjoyed the first two books in the Wicked series. They were a bit silly, sure, but they made me laugh out loud. Sometimes you just need a fun, kooky read!

2. The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins
I'm hoping this psychological thriller will have me on the edge of my seat!

3. Etta and Otto and Russell and James by Emma Hooper
A woman in her 80s decides she wants to see the ocean before she dies, so one morning she gets up and starts walking there. I'm not sure if the tone will be serious or quirky or both, but it looks like it'll be a really good read. At the very least, the cover has my attention!

4. The Mime Order by Samantha Shannon
I thought "The Bone Season" was pretty good and I'm planning to check out the sequel.

5. "Lair of Dreams" by Libba Bray
Ditto above. "The Diviners" was a decent read and I'll continue with the series.

And one that doesn't have a cover yet:
6. The City of Mirrors by Justin Cronin
I absolutely loved the post-apocalyptic zombie tome "The Passage," but somehow I went a whole year without reading the second book! The final book releases this summer and I will definitely be ready for it!

  1. Awesome picks! I've been meaning to pick up the Diviners and finally read it because I absolutely love Libba Bray's writing. I'm hoping to read The Bone Season this month because I actually have an advanced copy of The Mime Order!

  2. Looking forward to the nest book in the 'wicked' series too. "Girl on a Train" looks intriguing.
