March TBR

Friday, 2 March 2018

Welcome Back!

Another TBR for you today, I'll be finished placement by the end of this month and will, hopefully, have some most content then, but for now - the books I'll be reading in March!

This month isn't very different, my TBR is focused very much on my E-Arc's which are being released in the coming weeks/months - Reviews coming soon!


The Girl With More Than One Heart by Laura Geringer Bass




Category: Children's Fiction
Publication Date: 17/4/18

Synopsis:

When Briana’s father dies of a heart attack, she feels a new heart grow inside her. Through this heart, her father’s voice guides her through her grief and helps her navigate her new, not-so-normal life at home.
 
When her mother’s own grief becomes overpowering, Briana feels like she’s responsible for her autistic little brother, Aaron. Spending much of her time and energy caring for Aaron, she wonders: Did his special needs hurt her father’s very fragile heart? The voice of Briana’s “new heart” helps her to cope with the messy uncertainties, as she balances her first feelings of romance, making new friends, and following her dream of writing for the school newspaper. And as Briana finds strength and knowledge in herself, she’s finally able to let go of her new heart and rely solely on her own.



The Good Daughter by Karin Slaughter





Category: Thriller/Suspense

Synopsis:

This story follows Charlie, who suffered a trauma during her childhood, with her sister Sam. The premise is that both girls are led into the woods at gunpoint, one runs and one is left behind. Twenty-eight years later, Charlie is now a defence-attorney and witnesses another tragedy in her hometown. This brings back all of the awful memories that Charlie has spent years trying to suppress, but she knows that they can't stay buried forever.







Final Girls by Riley Sager




Category: Thriller

Synopsis:


Another thriller, and apparently one of the best of 2017! This book is said to be similar to the slasher films of the 90's and early 2000's, like scream. And, if you know me, I LOVE slasher movies - so this one sounded like it was made for me. 

It follows three final girls, Quincy, Lisa and Sam, who each survived different traumatic experiences. Quincy is finally recovering from her attack, when she finds out that the first final girl, Lisa is dead and the second, Sam appears on her doorstep. Quincy is forced to relive the past and find out what really happened ten years ago.

February TBR

Sunday, 4 February 2018

Welcome Back!

I am still on my work placement with a crazy schedule! So, I'm sorry for the lack of content, any of which is currently scheduled from early January. I'll be back in late March, I promise. That being said, I couldn't leave you all with no content and so I'm back with my TBR for February.

Thinking back to my January TBR, I'm sad to say that I read only one of the books. However, I read A LOT of other books. This was due to getting a ton of E-Arcs very suddenly, and thus, my January TBR was sidelined for the time being.

This month isn't very different, my TBR is focused very much on my E-Arc's which are being released in February or March - Reviews coming soon!

January TBR

Sunday, 14 January 2018

Welcome Back!

It's 2018, that came around way too quickly. I'm about to go back into placement for three months, and I'm stressed about the stress that I will be feeling. Life.

Anyway, this is my January TBR, which will contain the books which I will hopefully read this month, I might not get through all of them, and I might get through more, who knows. I'm hopefully going to give all of them a try though.

Her Every Fear by Peter Swanson.

This is a thriller book - full of suspense, from one of my favourite current authors - Peter Swanson. 

It follows Kate, who swaps apartments with her Second Cousin, Corbin. However, the day that Kate moves in, she finds out that her next-door neighbour has been murdered. Corbin becomes the obvious suspect after fleeing the country, but Kate is on a mission to find out what happened and if he is, truly, involved. 

The Good Daughter by Karin Slaughter. 

This is another psychological thriller, this time with a more serious plot-line.

This story follows Charlie, who suffered a trauma during her childhood, with her sister Sam. The premise is that both girls are led into the woods at gunpoint, one runs and one is left behind. Twenty-eight years later, Charlie is now a defence-attorney and witnesses another tragedy in her hometown. This brings back all of the awful memories that Charlie has spent years trying to suppress, but she knows that they can't stay buried forever.

You by Caroline Kepnes. 

This book is another psychological thriller - surprise, surprise. This one is from the antagonist's point of view, however, which I think should be really interesting. This follows Joe Goldberg who works in a bookshop and becomes obsessed with Beck. Joe stalks Beck, stalks her social media and moves from stalker to boyfriend throughout this story. I think this sounds like such a brilliant read!


Final Girls by Riley Sager. 

Another thriller, and apparently one of the best of 2017! This book is said to be similar to the slasher films of the 90's and early 2000's, like scream. And, if you know me, I LOVE slasher movies - so this one sounded like it was made for me. 

It follows three final girls, Quincy, Lisa and Sam, who each survived different traumatic experiences. Quincy is finally recovering from her attack, when she finds out that the first final girl, Lisa is dead and the second, Sam appears on her doorstep. Quincy is forced to relive the past and find out what really happened ten years ago.


Well, there you go, hopefully you've enjoyed this short post about my TBR for the coming month. It's a bit difficult, because of going back to placement full-time, I won't have time to read from the second week of January until the beginning of April, I doubt I'll get through even a book a month. I'll try. So, I'm hopefully going to get through this list during this first week of January! We'll see how that goes...

Well there we are, finally finished! That is all of the books which I am most anticipating in 2018 - or at least, in the first few months of 2018! I can't wait for all of them to be released - and hopefully you can't either.

Is there anything I'm missing from my list? What are you most anticipating? What's the one book you CANNOT WAIT for? Let me know down below! 



Most Anticipated Books of 2018 - Part 1

Saturday, 6 January 2018


Hello Everyone!

I've been browsing the upcoming book lists the last few weeks over Christmas, probably so I can avoid actually spending money on books - you can't buy a book that isn't out yet!

Especially from BookBird - who is currently my God of upcoming books. Check out the list they have compiled of YA releases in 2018. It's amazing! Linked above.

Anyway, I've decided to show you a list of my own anticipated books of 2018, although they are really only of the first few months of 2018, and only of books which have covers and synopses revealed already. I am always finding new anticipated releases though so check out my goodreads for a more up-to-date list.

I feel like this post is getting obnoxiously long and so I'm going to cut this list into two and that way it's a bit more readable for you all. Since this is my list of books I'm anticipating for the first few months, my second part features books from March to August? I think. That being said, because less is known about books coming out in the summer months, there are not as many in the second part of this list!
