2017 Releases I REALLY Want To Read By The End of the Year

I've read quite a few new releases in 2017 and, unfortunately, a good chunk up them wound of being disappointments. Despite that, there are several more 2017 books that I really want to make an effort to read before the year comes to a close (and preferably before the Goodreads Choice Awards -- I love voting for those!), though there's no way I'll get to them all.

I only included books published before October on my list because I'm putting together a different post featuring October-December releases I'm excited about. Have you read any of these books? Some, like "The Hate U Give," were ubiquitous this year, while others, like "Home Fire," were a little less hyped. I'm looking forward to all of them -- fingers crossed for some 5-star reads in the bunch!

  1. Looks like you have some good reading ahead. I'm really curious about The Magpie Murders. Can't wait to hear your thoughts on some of these!

    1. I was already planning to read it and then a good friend gave it 5 stars, so I'm really looking forward to it!

  2. The Hate you Give and The Seven Husbands are on my list also but TBH probably won't make it before end of year, eek.

    Great list.

    1. Good luck! I'd LOVE to get to all of these, but who knows how many I'll actually read before the year is up. I'm notorious for making lists and then not actually following them!

  3. Thanks for adding another book to my list as I hadn't seen The Hearts Invisible Furies Before and this looks excellent. I have many of these same books on my lists. You need to read The Hate U Give, Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine and The Radium Girls. I highly recommend these three. Three totally different books but they are gems! I read Little Fires Everywhere and wasn't too thrilled with it. So many great novels this year. I don't want next year to come as I know there will be just as many great novels to read and I'm falling behind.

    1. I totally feel you. The other day at work a patron was checking out one of the books on this list and I said I really wanted to get to it soon, and that there are so many new releases I'm hoping to read by the end of the year. She looked a bit baffled and said something slightly mocking, along the lines of, "What, do the books turn into pumpkins at the end of the year and you can't read them anymore?" CLEARLY she doesn't get it! The struggle is real! ;)

  6. I read The Hate U Give, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, and The Fact of a Body and they were all very good!
