2. The Day of the Duchess by Sarah MacLean - This is the 3rd book in the Scandal and Scoundrels series and features the bad guy in the first book. I'm dying to see how MacLean redeems him! (June 27)
3. Sleep Like a Baby by Charlaine Harris - I was so excited with Harris started her Aurora Teagarden series back up last year and can't wait for this one! While not quite a cozy these are more straightforward mysteries than her usual books and I love this series. (September 26)
4. Wicked Deeds by Heather Graham - This is a new book in Graham's Krewe series about FBI agents and the occasional civilian who solve crimes with a paranormal element. This book features the couple from Dying Breath which I reviewed yesterday and really enjoyed. I can't remember that Graham has ever featured a couple twice in a full length book in the Krewe series so I'm excited to see how this goes. (September 19)
6. Year One by Nora Roberts - I'm really on the fence about this one. On one hand it's a Nora Roberts trilogy and I always read the Nora Roberts trilogies but on the other hand there's a plague and NYC is wiped out and it really has a post-apocalyptic feel which is really not my thing. (December 5)
7. Copycat by Alex Lake - This one sounds so creepy! A woman discovers that there are two Facebook profiles for her. One is hers and one just has all her information including pictures of her kids and her home. Someone has been following her and even been inside her house. This does not sound like one to be read while home alone! (September 7)
8. Touch of Red by Laura Griffin - I've read the most recent 2 books in the Tracers series and really clicked with this romantic suspense series that's heavy on suspense. This book features 2 side characters that I really liked in the last book so I'm excited to see them get a little page time. (October 31)
9. Smitten Kitchen Everyday: Triumphant and Unfussy New Favorites by Deb Perelman - Smitten Kitchen is one of my favorite food blogs and I loved her previous cookbook. Not all of her recipes work for my picky family but the ones that do are always home runs. (October 24)
10. The Pioneer Woman Cooks: Come and Get it!: Simple Scrumptious Recipes for Crazy Busy Lives by Ree Drummond - The Pioneer Woman's cookbooks aren't fine dining but they are reliable, typically quick to put together and don't rely on processed foods which are all things that make me happy. Oh and they're tasty! (October 24)
What releases are you anticipating?
Well, thank you for this list! Those last two cookbooks are going in my list right now at Goodreads. I didn't know Deb Perlman had a new book....or Pioneer Woman!
ReplyDeleteI think I would have a hard time narrowing it down too. These are some great choices, Katherine. Map of the Heart sounds really good as does Heather Graham's book you mention.
ReplyDeleteOoh The Lying Game is one I definitely want to get too! I love how quickly she's putting books out.
ReplyDeleteIt is a dangerous TTT week! I usually have a lot of pre-releases in my wishlist but they never seem to match up with everyone else so loads more get added when I visit blogs!
ReplyDeleteI have always struggled with Sarah MacLean. I'm not really sure what my issue is, because I love the author. I mean I love how she promotes romance, and all that.
ReplyDeleteI have an ARC of Map of the Heart, which I really need to get back to. And of course I want to read the Krewe of Hunters book. I'm a book behind on Sarah MacLean's series, which is why I didn't include this one, but I'm looking forward to it anyway. And I have the same reservations about Year One that you do, but I'll give it a try. :-) Good list!
ReplyDeleteOoo, a new Smitten Kitchen cookbook? I mean, I need another cookbook like I need a hole in the head, but I love her.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh how did I forget The Lying Game??? I hope the audio is the same narrator as the other two! Great list!
ReplyDeleteOoooh, great list! I totally forgot about THE LYING GAME, but that's definitely one of my most anticipated reads of the year. I thought Charlaine Harris wrote vampire novels? If it's a straight-up mystery, I'll definitely check it out. Your commentary on YEAR ONE made me laugh. The things that make you uncertain about it are the exact things that make me want to read it! Ha ha.
ReplyDeleteHappy TTT!
Ooh, you have some good ones on the list, Kathy. I've become hooked on the Teagarden movies on the Hallmark Channel, but have never read any of the books. Love Susan Wiggs, Nora Roberts and Heather Graham. I have their books in the pile, but need to get back to reading them for sure. Hugs...
ReplyDeleteLove MacLean and Wiggs' books.
ReplyDeleteI still need to read the last Ruth Ware book. I can't keep up anymore. I hope you enjoy all of these once you get the chance to read them.
ReplyDeleteGreat list. They all sound good.
ReplyDeleteSo I don't know any of these but Copycat does sound creepy and I LOVE The Pioneer Woman. I need to get my hands on one of her cook books. :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome List, Katherine!
I am not great with keeping up on new releases either - and because I mainly read non-fiction, it's not like it is a series when I know another book will coming in X amount of time. That's one of the reasons my list was so short for this TTT!
ReplyDeleteI love that you've included cookbooks from two really big food bloggers. My sister is RecipeGirl! She did one cookbook and so far is swearing she won't do another.
ReplyDeleteWow, lots of great sounding books. The authors of these books are new to me. I'm curious about Map of The Heart. Sounds something I would like. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing. Awesome list. :)
Nice list, I have my eye for sure on the Susan Wiggs book and have it marked for reading. Not sure about the NR trilogy book, sounds like she is taking a bit of a different tack and I guess who can blame her, so she has something a bit different to write about!
ReplyDeleteThe cookbooks sound wonderful!
ReplyDeleteNice list! Almost every one going on my list here. I like Susan Wiggs very much, Heather Graham yes from only reading a couple of her books though, and how did I not know about the new Tracers book coming out? I love her!
ReplyDeleteThe authors I'm looking forward to reading as they release their new titles later this year: Harlan Coben, Tami Hoag, Tess Gerritsen, Laura Griffin, William Kent Krueger, JT Ellison and PJ Tracy. I didn't do this week's meme but those would've been right up there on top :)
Eep! Yeah, I can't wait for the next aurora book. :)
ReplyDeleteI was interested to read about Nora Roberts and Year One, I love her work as JD Robb so expect good things of this!
