I have an extensive list of books I can't wait to read that are released in 2018. It is ridiculously long as you'll see. I tend to keep myself a list so I know what to look out for each month
on the library catalogue so I can get my reservations in early but I thought I'd share it on here for anyone who is interested to add to your wishl lists.
There's a lot of UKYA titles. There are also a few more adult titles than in previous years as I've found myself discovering more and more adult authors over the last twelve months.
So without further ado here are the titles I'm hoping to get my hands on over the coming year
January
I'm most excited for
The endless beach by Jenny Colgan. I only discover Jenny's books last year and binge read much of her backlist and love them all.
I also can't wait to read more from these authors
Bad girls with perfect faces by Lynn Weingarten
The truth and lies of Ella Black by Emily Barr
On a beautiful day by Lucy Diamond
I was born for this by Alice Oseman
Still me by Jojo Moyes
I'm very excited to try these authors for the first time
In love and war by Liz Trenow
Impossible Saints by Clarissa Harwood
I did it for us by Alison Bruce
If I die before I wake by Emily Koch
February
I'm most excited for
The Dark Angel by Elly Griffiths. Elly's books are set near me which means I have a soft spot for them instantly. Also I love the history side and the characters. I've binge read the entire series in the last few months and now can't wait to carry on with it.
