TITLE:  CROOKED KINGDOM (Six of Crows # 2)

AUTHORLeigh Bardugo

PUBLICATION DATE: September 22, 2016

PUBLISHER: Orion Children’s Books

GOODREADS SYNOPSIS: 

Kaz Brekker and his crew have just pulled off a heist so daring even they didn’t think they’d survive. But instead of divvying up a fat reward, they’re right back to fighting for their lives. Double-crossed and left crippled by the kidnapping of a valuable team member, the crew is low on resources, allies, and hope. As powerful forces from around the world descend on Ketterdam to root out the secrets of the dangerous drug known as jurda parem, old rivals and new enemies emerge to challenge Kaz’s cunning and test the team’s fragile loyalties. A war will be waged on the city’s dark and twisting streets―a battle for revenge and redemption that will decide the fate of magic in the Grisha world.

This is one of the cover reveals I’m excited about and I’m so glad that the cover came out like this. SIX OF CROWS WAS INDEED AMAZING. And I hope this final installment won’t disappoint. Leigh Bardugo has grown so much as a writer and her style of narration improved a lot ever since she finished The Grisha Trilogy. She’s one of the rare authors out there who makes an awesome adventure dark fantasy. I’m excited because she promised that this book is more than a heist.

Crooked Kingdom will be released on September 22, 2016
What’s your most anticipated read for 2016?

TITLE:  A Court of Mist and Fury ( A Court of Thorns and Roses # 2)

AUTHOR:   Sarah J. Maas

PUBLICATION DATE: May 3, 2016

PUBLISHER: Bloomsbury USA Childrens

GOODREADS SYNOPSIS: 

Feyre survived Amarantha’s clutches to return to the Spring Court–but at a steep cost. Though she now has the powers of the High Fae, her heart remains human, and it can’t forget the terrible deeds she performed to save Tamlin’s people.

Nor has Feyre forgotten her bargain with Rhysand, High Lord of the feared Night Court. As Feyre navigates its dark web of politics, passion, and dazzling power, a greater evil looms–and she might be key to stopping it. But only if she can harness her harrowing gifts, heal her fractured soul, and decide how she wishes to shape her future–and the future of a world cleaved in two.

With more than a million copies sold of her beloved Throne of Glass series, Sarah J. Maas’s masterful storytelling brings this second book in her seductive and action-packed series to new heights.

This series is beautiful. I really enjoyed A Court of Thorns and Roses so much. It’s one of the best beauty and the beast fairy tale retelling out there. I’m anticipating to see the twists Ms. Maas has prepared for us for the second book. “NIGHT COURT” with Rhysand? Is this a Hades and Persephone myth retelling? But I strongly ship Feyre with Tamlin, after all they’ve been though in book 1. But Rhysand is purely irresistible and.. arghh my ship is torn! Can I just sign up for Rhysand’s bargain instead of Feyre. I VOLUNTEER!

What’s your most anticipated year 2016 release?

TITLE: Glass Sword (Red Queen # 2)

AUTHORVictoria Aveyard

PUBLICATION DATE: February 9, 2016

PUBLISHER: HarperTeen

GOODREADS SYNOPSIS: 

Mare Barrow’s blood is red—the color of common folk—but her Silver ability, the power to control lightning, has turned her into a weapon that the royal court tries to control.

The crown calls her an impossibility, a fake, but as she makes her escape from Maven, the prince—the friend—who betrayed her, Mare uncovers something startling: she is not the only one of her kind.

Pursued by Maven, now a vindictive king, Mare sets out to find and recruit other Red-and-Silver fighters to join in the struggle against her oppressors.

But Mare finds herself on a deadly path, at risk of becoming exactly the kind of monster she is trying to defeat.

Will she shatter under the weight of the lives that are the cost of rebellion? Or have treachery and betrayal hardened her forever?

I LOVED  RED QUEEN SO MUCH ‘CUZ THE STORY WAS ENTICING AND EVENTFUL. Lots of plot twists happened AND I’M REALLY ANTICIPATING THIS SEQUEL. Plus Victoria Aveyard is having a book signing here in our country this coming March, so  I’m really excited.

What’s your most anticipated book to be released soon?
