Most Anticipated Book Releases of 2016

Don't worry, although many of the books are sequels this is a SPOILER FREE post. Here are 6 of my most anticipated books of 2016.

A Court of Mist and Fury (A Court of Thorns and Roses #2) - Sarah J Maas
Expected Release: 3rd May
If you read my last post you will know that ACOTAR is one of my top books of 2015 and possibly my favourite book full stop. Sarah writes phenomenal characters and creates such amazing fantasy worlds. Still can't believe I have to wait another 5 months!






Glass Sword (Red Queen #2) - Victoria Aveyard
Expected Release: 9th February
Again Red Queen was one of my top 2015 books and the plot twist in this fantasy/dystopian masterpiece has left me in serious need of finding out what is going to happen next!







Lady Midnight (The Dark Artifices #1) - Cassandra Clare
Expected Release: 8th March
I came late to the world of shadowhunters but I am actually glad that I was as this allowed me to binge read TMI AND TID without having to go through the grueling wait for sequels. I love the world of shadowhunters Cassie has created and all the TDA teases in CoHF have gotten me so excited to find out what is going to happen... maybe some forbidden parabatai love *wink wink*




The Beauty of Darkness (The Remnant Chronicles #3) - Mary E Pearson
Expected Release: 2nd August
Bring on summer 2016 now please! I found this series this year and i'm so invested in the story, for the first book in this series Mary put such a unique twist on things and as the story has developed I have fallen in love with a certain male character and I need book #3 asap so I can find out if, as I suspect, I am shipping the wrong ship! *fingers crossed* though.





Throne of Glass #5 - Sarah J Maas

Expected Release: 6th September
Not much is known about this book at all but I am deeply in love with the Throne of Glass series and need more bad ass Celaena.






The Rose and the Dagger (The Wrath and the Dawn #2) - Renee Ahdieh
Expected Release: 3rd May
I'm actually only a few chapters in to The Wrath and the Dawn but from all the hype I've heard around this book i'm thinking book 2 is gonna be highly anticipated.

My Top Books of 2015

I read a lot of books throughout the year, here are my favourites that were released in 2015.



A Court of Thorns and Roses - Sarah J Maas
Is possibly my sole favourite book of the year, I love Sarah's writing so so much. This beauty and the beast retelling is utterly amazing and a must read for any fantasy lovers, especially if you enjoy fae related stories. And the men in this book!!!







Red Queen - Victoria Aveyard

Another must read for fantasy/dystopian fans. This book is a combination of magical powers, romance, rebellion, and topped off with one of the biggest plot twists I've ever read.

Queen of Shadows - Sarah J Maas
Again Sarah knows how to write a male character, especially primal fae warriors. Celaena Sardothian is such a strong female character and I love that Sarah can write a romance without the girl always needing the man to save her. QoS is so far my favourite in the Throne of Glass series, each book just gets better and better!







The Heart of Betrayal - Mary E Pearson
I enjoyed the Kiss of Deception but it was book 2 that has really engrossed me in this series and I can't wait for book 3 next year. Runaway princess now turned captive and do I sense possible romance with said character... I hope so!







If you think I've missed any good ones out let me know, also the following 2015 releases are still on my TBR:
  • The Wrath and The Dawn
  • Illuminae 
  • Ice Like Fire
  • The Rose Society
