Ten Books I'm Really Looking Forward to in 2018 Pt 2
This is a topic that I did a few times over at The Broke and the Bookish and honestly I always dreaded it a bit because I'm not great at keeping up with new releases. However, I realized I was kind of missing it so I decided it was time to revisit this topic!
The Witch Elm by Tana French - I finally read a book by Tana French and fell in love with her writing style. This one involves a crumbling family home and a skull being discovered in a trunk of a tree. Secrets from the past abound! (October 9)
The Lighthouse Keeper's Daughter by Hazel Gaynor - I finally read my first Hazel Gaynor earlier this year and absolutely loved it so I'm super excited to read this latest.(October 9)
The Mystery of Three Quarters by Sophie Hannah - I was just wondering when/if a new Poirot book by Hannah would come out when I saw this and I'm really looking forward to it. I struggled with the first book but really enjoyed the 2nd. (August 28)
The Collector's Apprentice by B.A. Shapiro - I haven't read anything by this author yet but I've been wanting to and this one looks gorgeous. (October 16)
Hot Winter Nights by Jill Shalvis - I've really been loving this Heartbreaker Bay series and am excited for the next one. (September 25)
Season of Wonder by RaeAnne Thayne - I love RaeAnne Thayne and her Christmas books are my favorite so I'm excited for this one!(September 25)
I'd Rather Be Reading by Anne Bogel - I'm a big fan of the What Should I Read Next podcast and have had her first book on my TBR for awhile but this one appeals to me even more! (September 4)
The Lacemaker's Secret by Kathleen Ernst - There's family secrets and a body in an old farmhouse so I'm super excited to give this series a try. (October 8)
A Vintage Death by Mary Ellen Hughes - I loved the first book in this series about a woman who has inherited a music box store and am looking forward to seeing where the series goes. (November 8)
Echoes of Evil by Heather Graham - Somehow I haven't read any of the Krewe of Hunters books from this year but they look so good! I'm hoping to read the first two before I get to this one. (September 18)
What books are you looking forward to reading in the second half of the year?

The Witch Elm for sure. I can't wait to see what she does outside the Dublin series.
ReplyDeleteOoh the premise of that Tana French book DOES sound awesome. And I'd Rather Be Reading looks fun!
ReplyDeleteI didn't know Tana French had a new book coming soon! Also curious about Anne Bogel's latest.
ReplyDeleteThe Witch Elm sounds good and I love the cover. 📚
ReplyDeleteI used to be all on the up and up about new teleases, but over the last couple of years, unless it's a sequel, I've been pretty cluless. Ha ha. 😏
Oh my goodness...these all sound like fabulous reads!! I'm doing a blog tour today and hope you'll stop by: https://www.bookclublibrarian.com/2018/07/partners-in-crime-virtual-book.html
ReplyDeleteSeveral of these sound good, but I'll admit that The Witch Elm tops my list.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed THE WITCH ELM. It's different from French's other books, but still really good. It's available on Edelweiss, if you're a member. THE LACEMAKER'S SECRET sounds good, too. I hadn't heard of it before, but it sounds like the kind of book I enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to this coming book by Anne Bogel, I wasn't so keen on her last one as I had read whole books on some of the things she talks about in her chapters and I just wasn't interested in others. But I think this one will be more reading oriented. Well here's hoping!!
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to the new Jill Shalvis and RaeAnne Thayne books, too, as well as the upcoming Krewe of Hunter books. I'll have to check out some of the others on your list, particularly I'd Rather Be Reading. I hope you enjoy all of these!
ReplyDeleteI don't keep up to date with new releases-I tend to notice when friends grab ARCs and that's the first I hear of them! I do look at Amazon's upcoming horror and apocalypse books for CWW.
ReplyDeleteTana French is going to have a new book released?!? I adore her-- I'm going to make sure The Witch Elm gets on my TBR list ASAP
ReplyDeleteThe Witch Elm looks fascinating - and I love these sort of lists, especially since I hadn't heard of most of these books. Thanks for the recommendations!
ReplyDeleteThis is an excellent list, Katherine:). I hope you find them all enjoyable.
ReplyDeleteI cannot wait to read Hot Winter Nights! I also love Jill Shalvis and this series is just AMAZING! It makes me want to go to San Francisco so badly!
ReplyDeleteGreat list! The second half of the year is looking like a great year for new releases!!
ReplyDeleteHot Winter Nights was so good! I think you'll enjoy it :)
