Top Ten 2013 Debuts Jamie's DYING To Read!

For the list of past topics and future schedule, click here!

This week's topic is all about those 2013 debut books we are dying to read!

This is awesome because this week I kiiiind of get to cheat because I get to do a post here and also did one on my blog so I get to in fact share with you the TWENTY books I'm most excited about basically. WOO LOOPHOLES. I live for them.























1. The Madman's Daughter by Megan Shephard: Ok, so I've already read this and it's really good, guys. Took me a little bit to get into but then WOW. Totally didn't realize it was a series either.
2. Taken by Erin Bowman: DYING FOR THIS! I'm just so fascinated by the premise!
3. OCD, the Dude & Me by Lauren Roedy Vaughn: I hadn't heard about this one until it showed up in my mailbox a few months ago but I'll tell you I'm more and more excited. I have a feeling it's going to be a fave contemp of the year!
4. The Art of Wishing by Lindsay Ribar: Ok, I've been a huge fan of Aladdin since I was a wee one and PLEASE OH PLEASE I want a genie! Plus I'm not sure that I've seen a genie premise in YA fiction recently so yay for something different!
5. Level 2 by Lenore Appelhans: OBVI this was on my list. My dear friend Lenore and fellow blogger! How long have we all been waiting for this one? I'm cheating because I already read this one and it's FANTASTIC!
6. In the After by Demetria Lunetta: Science fiction! I want to know who the heck the "THEM" are. I keep picturing zombies but that's because I'm on a Walking Dead kick haha. This book sounds AWESOME.
7. Transparent by Natalie Whipple: I always say that if I had a superpower I would love to be invisible so NATURALLY I had to add this book!!
8. Reboot by Amy Tintera: I'm getting into science fiction these days and this one sounds pretty cool!
9. Pivot Point by Kasie West: I was going to start this one this month but then got distracted with a few other books that I had to read first. I've heard great things so far!
10. Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea by April Genevieve Tucholke: This cover is so awesome and I just think it sounds so creepy and awesome...the devil walking amongst us in the form of a cute guy next door. YEAH that would explain some things :P

Are any of these on your list? Any I should be adding to my list? You can check out the list I did over at my blog for even more 2013 debut goodness!

  16. The Madman's Daughter and Transparent would have been on my list as well if I had heard of them while creating it (about a week ago), but somehow they avoided me until a couple days ago. :( I'm so excited for them, now!

    ReplyDelete
  17. So many great books to choose from. I am really looking forward to The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea. I adore the cover and the premise really does sound unique.

    The handful of reviews of Pivot Point were so positive, that I really want to read that one too.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea sounds hilarious. What a difficult position to be in.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Half of these I can't wait for but half of these are new to me!! Transparent seems pretty cool. Good picks!
