Can't wait for Family Lore! Not sure why The Exiled isn't on here though...
Exams on the way but do you see me complaining?!!
I am most excited about Four Seasons in Japan.
I'm also looking forward to reading C. J. Sansom's next book this summer (hopefully): Ratcliff, the 8th in the Shardlake series.
I'm sad not to see The Five-Star Weekend on this list, Elin Hilderbrand IS the Queen of the Summer Beach read...
I'm surprised to see that Dead of Winter isn't on here... it was a fantastic bone-chilling read! I highly recommend it to all the thriller-horror readers out there. Be on the lookout July 11th!
The Fox and the Dragon by SK Ehra would be a great beach book, if I hadn't started it and read it cover to cover already. High fantasy set in the Far East with compelling leads and antagonists who see themselves as the real heroes of the land.
Loved loved the new S A Cosby and can't wait for the Riley Sager!!!!
Dee. wrote: "Exams on the way but do you see me complaining?!!"I finally finished school so no more exams for me! More time to read!
Good luck on your exams.
Most excited for Ink Blood Sister Scribe, The Sun and the Void, Pageboy, Silver Nitrate, and Pageboy!
Still just holding out for a new book in the ACOTAR series
Looking forward to Ann Patchett's latest!
I love seeing all the new books that are available but always seem to migrate back to the familiar authors I've enjoyed reading in the past.
The Only One Left is the only one. I can’t add any more authors to my reading list.
I can’t believe Dennis Lehane’s “Small Mercies” is not on this list
READY FOR KATHERINE CENTER'S NEWEST !!!!
I am looking forward to the new Harry Hole (Killing Moon) book by Jo Nesbo!
Molly wrote: "Still just holding out for a new book in the ACOTAR series"Same!!
Killing Moon by Jo Nesbo comes out May 30. Love Harry Hole mysteries.
Been looking forward to this list!! Elin Hilderbrand new one, 5 Star Weekend, isn't on here.
Surprised that 'Be Mine' by Richard Ford, probably the final Frank Bascombe novel, isn't on the list. Easily my most anticipated read this year.
Molly wrote: "Still just holding out for a new book in the ACOTAR series"Hahah me too! I think Maas has a 7 book contract right now so there's hopefully gonna be a lot of new stuff coming in the next few years but I am so impatient
Definitely Does Love Always Win by Diane Billas! A new YA sapphic novel coming out June 20th!!
Sad that there is no Historical Fiction listed....
Definitely looking forward to horror and romance books! I’ve been patiently waiting 🤩!
A new Colson Whitehead book? Can't wait!
Amber wrote: "I'm surprised to see that Dead of Winter isn't on here... it was a fantastic bone-chilling read! I highly recommend it to all the thriller-horror readers out there. Be on the lookou..." Very surprised, its book statistics are higher than any of the horror books above
Also surprised not to see Steven Rowley's (The Guncle, Lily and the Octopus) The Celebrants here.
Frankly, until we got to Ali Hazlewood, Riley Sager, none of what was picked is on my want to read list! As other commentators said, where is Elgin Hildebrand book, the new Mark Jimenez Penn Cage book, the new Lincoln Lawyer installment? I honestly think (and I read like 4 books a week (terrible insomnia) the first 30 did not seem like anything I wanted to read. I genuinely mean no disrespect. I read for a living (not in publishing field).
Meant Elin Hildebrand! Auto correct-ugh!
Kenny wrote: "Surprised that 'Be Mine' by Richard Ford, probably the final Frank Bascombe novel, isn't on the list. Easily my most anticipated read this year."Hear hear!
I'm psyched for a new Ann Patchett. I won't read the description, I'll just buy it and read it!Also can't wait for this Colson Whitehead sequel.
I didn't see any other "fiction" that interested me. I'm hoping something literary pops up in reviews this summer. I feel like most of these books listed have cliches and predictable tropes mixed together algorithmically to be interesting, and this usually tells me that the writing style and the character motivations (my two musts) won't be special. If a book has a solid genre formula and an interesting twist on an idea, I'll go for it because they're often fun and easy and the writers can play with set conventions.
But I won't buy a book just because it's about something that I already agree with politically; only if the book could stand on its own based on the quality of the writing. Too often I've fallen for the hype around a book that in a rather pedestrian way just tells me what I want to hear.
I don’t think I’ve ever added as many books to my TBR as I have with this article
I have been waiting forever to read Witch King by Martha Wells ever since I first heard about it. I have really enjoyed Wells' other books.
Amber wrote: "I don’t think I’ve ever added as many books to my TBR as I have with this article"Same!
