Happy New Year! Welcome to 2016!
For the last three years, I've done a similar post, and I thought it would be a good idea to keep the idea going.

So, books. I'm doing this like I did last year. Things change, like, getting ARCs/eARCs. So, like last year's post, there will be two sections to this post. The first one will highlight the books that I am excited for in 2016 THAT I ALREADY HAVE, via ARC/eARC. The second section will highlight the ones that I am excited for and do not have (yet).
I'll update this post with titles and release dates (as they come), as well as my review links (as I read/review).

Happy New Year! Scrolling down your list, I could see that basically everything here is in my want-to-wait-no-NEED-to-read pile, hehe. Happy reading in 2016! :D
ReplyDeleteThere are soooo many good books to look forward to in 2016, right? Happy reading!
DeleteGosh, you have SO MANY ARCs sweet girl. <3 Wishing you all the best with reading them all :D Good luck too, lol. <3 So many books to read. I'm dying to read a lot of these too :) Happy reading Alyssa. <3
ReplyDeleteIt's almost scary though! I have so many to get through, from the Winter. O_O Happy reading, Carina!
DeleteGah! SO MANY GOOD BOOKS are coming out this year :D It's going to be awesome! Happy New Year Alyssa ♥ I wish you nothing but the best for 2016, bookish and otherwise xxxx
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to (hopefully) read them all! Good luck and happy New Year, Micheline!
Delete*blinks* YOU'VE READ SO MANY 2016 ALREADY HOW DO YOU DO IT LOL.
ReplyDelete2016 IS SUCH A GOOD BOOK YEAR I'M SO EXCITED AHHHHHHH. Hope you get your hands on all the ones you don't have and that you absolutely love them <3
I've tried my best to get a foot in the year, before I get swamped like last year! Thank you, Nikki. =)
DeleteThat's quite the list. I recognize a handful. The only one I share (so far) is the wish to get Gemina for review, too. I look forward to your thoughts on these.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, Alyssa!
Oooo, well that is certainly a good one to be looking forward to! Thank you, Sophia. Happy New Year!
DeleteSO MANY AWESOME BOOKS TO LOOK FORWARD TO THIS YEAR!!
ReplyDeleteAnd I've just realized that Crooked Kingdom comes out the day before my birthday!! EARLY PRESENT TO MYSELF FOR SUREEE!!
That is FANTASTIC! My birthday falls on a Tuesday this year, and it looks like Paper and Fire will be my birthday gift to myself! ;)
DeleteExcellent list idea - it's easy to keep organized this way! :D
ReplyDelete*Cue me looking at me calendar going, "Welll... I guess I'm reading this next?"*
YES! It's one of the several ways I keep track. ;) Ha ha!
DeleteAlyssa you are seriously a reading machine!! I hope you enjoy all the books you're looking forward to in 2016! I can't wait to read your reviews :D
ReplyDelete*oils gears and pulleys* ;)
DeleteThank you! I hope so too! And you are AWESOME, Eileen. <3
Goodness! That is quite the list of books you've already read. Have you shared your reading secrets before? If not, depart your knowledge!
ReplyDeleteYou know, I always wanted to do a post on that. ;D
DeleteIt makes me happy to see a lot of the books that I can't wait for you also want to read!
ReplyDeleteYAY! Great minds think alike, Angela. ;)
DeleteAylssa, i'm curious.. I didn't see A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah Maas on your to read list.
ReplyDeleteAnd you won't ever find it on here. ;)
DeleteHmmm I saw you read A Court of Thorns and Roses. Thought you might finish the series. I guess not really a Sarah Mass fan huh? :)
DeleteI did read it, and I absolutely hate not finishing series, but I don't think I can stomach ACOMAF, book #3, or anything Maas book in general. I have something against all of her romances. :/
DeleteI know what you mean! I always feel like I need to finish a aeries since I devoted myself to the first book and all. It's like reading ACOMAF and wanting to finish but absolutely can't stomach the turn of events in it that I have to stop and put it back on my shelf to let me simmer and adjust to the change and thinking should I even finish it? I agree with you on how she changes her romances within a series and it's devastatingly heartbreaking. Kudos for you to stop and not even go there!
ReplyDeleteI know exactly what you mean! I can't do ACOMAF, especially since I asked someone for spoilers. I just can't! I'd rather never finish the series. I might go back and finish the Throne of Glass series (I've read 1-3) after book 6 publishes. I'm hoping Rowan is endgame but who knows, with Maas. O_O
DeleteIf Rowan isn't endgame I'm going to stop reading her books altogether. It's too painful. I love the way you think!!
DeleteI feel you! It would be so unfair. I never loved Chaol or Dorian, but if Maas ruins Rowan? There is no telling what her fandom might do/how they might react. o_o
DeleteHey Alyssa, you planning to read Crooked Kingdom by Leigh Bardugo? I just finished it and wanted to hear what you thought about it.:)
ReplyDeleteI do plan on reading it! I had issues with a preorder, but I plan on reading it... hopefully by the end of the year. If my review schedule permits!
DeleteI hope you enjoyed the book. =)
