This week's Top Ten Tuesday topic from That Artsy Reader Girl Most Anticipated New Releases for the First Half of 2019. I'm not always great at this topic because I'm not fantastic about keeping up with new releases but it's also fun to go wandering around book lists to see what I have to look forward to in the coming months!
1. The Last Lie by Alex Lake - I've been wanting to read Alex Lake for awhile so I'm really excited about this one. I love twisty phycological thrillers and this one looks seriously moody.
2. No Escape Claws by Sofie Ryan - I read the last one in this cozy mystery series involving a second hand shop and a cat last year and really enjoyed it so I'm really looking forward to this newest one.
3. Past Due for Murder by Victoria Gilbert - I've read the first two in this cozy series set around a librarian and full of mysteries with ties to the past and I have high hopes for the third mystery.
4. Murder Once Removed by S.C. Perkins - I love genealogy and can easily see how it would be a rich subject for a mystery series so I think this will be a fantastic read.
5. The Cliff House by RaeAnne Thayne - I love RaeAnne Thayne and so I'm excited to see what she does with this book which is more women's fiction than romance and focuses on the relationship between two sisters and their aunt.
7. The View from Alameda Island by Robyn Carr - I've enjoyed Carr's books - especially her women's fiction so this should be a nice read.
8. Montauk by Nicola Harrison - I know nothing about this one but I love historical fiction and I haven't read many books that are set right before World War II.
9. The Summoning by Heather Graham - Not only is this a Krewe of Hunters book from Graham but it involves a haunted B and B in Savannah, GA so I'm really excited about this one. It doesn't hurt that I always enjoy a Krewe book.
10. California Girls by Susan Mallery - Once again I can't resist a women's fiction story involving sisters. Not sure why this kind of plot is an auto buy for me but it most definitely is.
What 2019 releases are you looking forward to?
I'm only aware of two at the moment-Alison Weir's Jane Seymour gets a paperback release this week and the new Extinction Trials book in early February.
ReplyDeleteNew RaeAnne Thayne is always good. There are some new to me ones up there!
ReplyDeleteWe are lucky to live in times when there are so many wonderful books available to meet the specific needs of all of us readers.
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy them all!
Ooh, mysteries! I think I've only see one other blog do this theme this week. Great job on picking something unique.
ReplyDeleteThis is my Top Ten Tuesday post.
I've got Montauk on my kindle. Making a note of your other recommendations.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great list and I am eager for the Summoning too
ReplyDeleteIf I need a murder mystery recommendation, I will surely come to your blog. :)

These all sound great, Katherine. I haven't heard of most of them. Past Due For Murder should be good. And the Thayne book. I hope you get to all of these and enjoy them.
ReplyDeleteYou know I'm always up for a good mystery/thriller! You've got some intriguing ones listed here. I'm also intrigued by the genealogy mysteries. I can see how that subject could lead to some very interesting mysteries, indeed. I'll have to check out the series.
ReplyDeleteHappy TTT!
You've got more than one that I want to sample. Probably at the top of my list would be the one by Robyn Carr. Hope you get to enjoy them!
ReplyDeleteOoh The Last Lie does look good! I'm so glad I started reading psychological thrillers- they're becoming one of my favorite go-to's.
ReplyDeleteNos 5 & 7 are in my sights for sure. So many good books indeed to choose from.
ReplyDeleteThe Last Lie sounds SO good!!
ReplyDeleteI haven't read any Heather Graham, but a haunted B&B sounds intriguing. 🏡👻
ReplyDeleteI don't have any of these but I'm interested in checking them out further. I have the Robyn Carr already on my wishlist, and the Murder Once Removed features a topic I'm interested in. Good list as always :) Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThese are all really new to me which is a bit of a surprise. I hope you enjoy them, Katherine!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great list. I need to read RaeAnne Thayne and catch up on Heather Graham and Susan Mallery.
ReplyDeleteI don't read as much from the mystery genre as I do from others, but the cover on The Missing Years is gorgeous!
