Top New Series I Want To Start

I'm participating in today's Top Ten Tuesday, hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. This week's prompt is:

Top Ten New Series I Want to Start

I am REALLY REALLY excited about some of these.  I feel like I've just finished a few series and am in the mood for some new ones!  These are a few that have caught my eye:


10. Queen of the Tearling by Erika Johansen
Seriously, I've been wanting to read this series ever since I first heard of it ages ago.  Don't know why I haven't started yet.

9. The Kiss of Deception (The Remnant Chronicles) by Mary E. Pearson
Book One is sitting on my nightstand even as we speak.  Must. Read. Faster.

8. The Percy Jackson series by Rick Riordan
Now that the last book in the series is out, it might be a good time to start this one!

7. The Goose Girl (The Books of Bayern) by Shannon Hale
I've read most of the rest of her work and thoroughly enjoy her writing style, so this should be a fun series.

6. Cracked (The Soul Eater Series) by Eliza Crewe
Ever since I read a glowing review of this book I've been itching to give it a try!

5. The Warrior Heir (The Heir Chronicles) by Cinda Williams Chima
Chima's Seven Realms series is one of my favorite fantasy series.  I'd love to read more of her work.

4. Mark of the Thief series by Jennifer A. Nielsen
I interviewed Ms. Nielsen this past August, and hearing her passion and excitement for this new series really got me excited about it!  Plus it takes place in ancient Rome, so. 

3. The Talon series by Julie Kagawa
One word: Dragons.

2. The Red Queen series by Victoria Aveyard
Seriously, I NEED THIS BOOK.  It sounds Am. Az. Ing.

1. 97 (Rise of the Battle Bred series) by V.L. Holt
Ms. Holt is a friend, full disclosure.  Her fantasy series is one that sounds really innovative and exciting, and I can't wait to dig in!


Have you read any great series lately?  What should I add to my series-radar??

  1. I've read the first of the Percy Jackson series, and I thought it was really amusing. I can't wait to get my hands on the rest of the series! It's one of those things that everyone has read, you know?
    And yes, YES to Cracked. It's so different from your average YA, and so funny, and it's like a breath of fresh air.

      Yeah, I figure I need to see what everyone's talking about with Percy Jackson! And, it was your review of Cracked that put it on my radar and now I can't wait to start! :)
