Top Ten Most Anticipated Releases for the First Half of 2016

Lauren's Picks:

1. The Last Star by Rick Yancey

2. The Rose and the Dagger by Renee Ahdieh

3. The Girl from Everywhere by Heidi Heilig

Julia's Picks:

4. The Winds of Winter by George R.R. Martin: 

Unfortunately this is just my hope beyond hopes. There still isn't an official release date... I just really, really want to read it before the next season of Game of Thrones in April... :(

5. Forevermore by Kristen Callihan:

Book 7 in the Darkest London series. I adore these books and can't wait for more!

6. Duke of Sin by Elizabeth Hoyt:

I love the Maiden Lane series, and in the course of looking this up, I found that there is a new on out that I forgot about! So I need to read that, but I want this. 

Jamie's Picks

7. The Unexpected Everything by Morgan Matson: Morgan is one of my go-to's when it comes to contemporary YA and all of her books have elicited 5 stars from me. SUPER EXCITED FOR THIS ONE YOU HAVE NO IDEA.

8. Salt to the Sea by Ruta Sepetys: I have loved both of Ruta's previous books and I am so excited to read yet another historical fiction from her. She's writing some of the BEST historical YA out there. 

9. The Last Boy and Girl in the World: I feel like Siobhan Vivian is super underrated and I've enjoyed the contemporary YA I've read from her and I'm SO excited for this upcoming book from her!

10. The Winner's Kiss by Marie Rutkoski: I CANNOT WAIT TO FOR THIS CONCLUSION TO A TRILOGY I HAVE LOVED SO MUCH. I feel like my feels are not prepared!!
