Top Ten Most Anticipated Releases For The Second Half Of 2016

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

Top Ten Most Anticipated Releases For The Second Half of 2016

These all have me drooling, and will all be released by the end of the year.  Gimmee!!!!

10. Empire of Storms by Sarah J. Maas
Although I really hate that cover image, I am still super excited to continue this insane series.

9. Heartless by Marissa Meyer
I just finished her Lunar Chronicles series earlier this year, and man can she write!  I've got pretty high expectations for this adaptation based on Alice in Wonderland's Queen of Hearts.

8. Crooked Kingdom by Leigh Bardugo
I had thought that this series was a trilogy, but it's actually a duology.  So no more waiting after this sequel for closure!

7. The Beauty of Darkness by Mary E. Pearson
I've been digging this series for two years.  Can't wait to close it out when this book is released this August.

6. The Fate of the Tearling by Erika Johansen
Although parts of book 2 were super convoluted, I am still and fan and will definitely read this final installment in November.

5. Riders by Veronica Rossi
A new series written by the author of the Under the Never Sky series?  WHY DID I NOT KNOW OF THIS SOONER.

4. The Rose and the Dagger by Renee Ahdieh
This one is actually already out, but since I haven't read it yet I'm including it here.  I loved book one, and am wanting to dig into this second half!  (Are duologies a thing now?  It seems like duologies are popping up more and more instead of trilogies.)

3. Unquiet Land by Sharon Shinn
I will basically drop my life to read this book when it's released in November.  I'm a massive fan of this series.

2. Untitled Cormoran Strike #4 by Robert Galbraith
I don't know if book 4 will be released this year.  It's doubtful, since there's no release date, cover image, blurb, or even a title for this book yet.  But all her other Cormoran Strike books were released in Autumn, so I'm crossing my fingers anyway.

1. Harry Potter and the Cursed Child by Jack Thorne
I want to see this play SO BAD.  I'm so curious who the cursed child is, and why.

What of these will you be reading?  What 2016 releases are you looking forward to, and why?

  1. So many of these look good! I can't wait for Heartless. I'm glad that I have started the Pearson books yet. Now I'll be able to devour them all at once.

  • Three of these would be on my list too! Even though I've only read Throne of Glass, I'm still looking forward to the next books including the new one coming out. And, I really want to read Heartless too! AND, OF COURSE I WANT TO READ THE NEW HARRY POTTER!!! I'M SO EXCITED (if you couldn't tell from the all caps)!!!
