looking forward to all of these! Reading The Archived and Cadet of Tildor right now and they are both fabulous!
I AM SO UNBELIEVABLY JEALOUS! I can’t wait to read those two!
I can’t wait to get my hands on PRODIGY. LEGEND was amazing!
Right? I am missing Day and June SO HARD right now! PRODIGY can’t come quick enough!
Holy Frijoles! So much awesome on one page!
I’ve read CADET OF TILDOR, and I’m in love with it. I’m excited that other people get to read it now!
I pretty much jump up and down whenever I put these posts together, because I WANT THEM ALL!
I honestly CAN’T WAIT for CADET OF TILDOR! (It makes it even harder whenever I hear that people loved it! Thankfully, it’s just a few days away! *breathes*)
I find it adorable that Asunder and Prodigy share the same release date 🙂
I’ve great things about Just One Day and am very curious about Shades of Earth (how about those cover re-vamps??? BALLSY)
GAH, I know! It’s actually quite perfect 🙂
All of them! Dying for Prodigy! Also super excited for Just One Day, The Madman’s Daughter, Through the Ever Night, and The Archived.
Hahaha, YES! All of the books, all of the time! ;P
Love these posts so much, Vanessa! Totally helps me keep track of what’s coming out when. Excited for so many of these & all those sequels! 😀
Awwwwwwwww YAY! I’m glad! These posts are pretty time consuming to put together, but I just love finding out about more books (but I guess, who doesn’t? :P). It makes me wonder how I ever kept track of when books were coming out before we started doing this…
I’ve really been looking forward by SPLINTERED by A.G. Howard. And its cover is just so perfect!
Other January releases I can’t wait to get my hands on are PRODIGY by Marie Lu, THE ARCHIVED by Victoria Schwab and PROPHECY by Ellen Oh. Although I have seen some here that I will definitely add as well.
Yes yes yes! Let’s just go back to the SPLINTERED cover and just gush! Because it’s so lovely and yet somehow still a little creepy, and the colours are so vivid and the model’s expression and UGH! So. Good.
And I’m glad you’ve found more books here to add to your list! (Though I do apologize to your wallet).
Prodigy and Through the Ever night are my Top ones right now! Can’t wait!!!
Soooooooon! 😀
Prodigy and through the ever night are at the top of my list right now! So can’t wait!
There are SOOO many great books comign out this month. But I am most excited for something I’ve actually already read. Prodigy by Marie Lu. The sequel is just as great at the first book, and I can’t wait for everyone else to read it!! ^_^
GAH, you’ve already read PRODIGY?! I AM SO JEALOUS I CAN’T EVEN! I am devouring that book as soon as I get my hands on it!
Also coming out on the 8th is THE FAIREST BEAUTY, by Melanie Dickerson, which I’m eagerly anticipating. I’m also clamoring for SHADES OF EARTH–I bought ACROSS THE UNIVERSE and the 2nd one for Christmas presents for myself, but promised I wouldn’t start reading until SoE was released…
I wimped out. So now I’m impatient.
OHEMGEE. The cover for THE FAIREST BEAUTY is stunning! I can’t believe I hadn’t heard of it! I’m such a sucker for fairytale retellings 🙂
And it can be SO HARD sometimes to hold off! But just think – when you finally get SoE in your hands, you will be so unbelievably excited!
I’m most excited about Just One Day by Gayle Forman. I loved her other books and I can’t wait to read this one.
I have to be honest… I’ve never read anything by Gayle Forman before! Which is a shame, because I’ve been meaning to read her for AGES! Maybe Just One Day will be the start for me…
I’m excited for a lot of these, but I think The Archived is number 1 on my list.
I adored THE NEAR WITCH, so I’m super excited for THE ARCHIVED! Schwab’s writing is just LOVELY! And can we talk about how ridiculously gorgeous the cover for THE ARCHIVED is? STUNNING!
Shades of Earth by Beth Revis!!!
I haven’t read ACROSS THE UNIVERSE yet (for shame, I know!), but I think I’ll be picking it up soon!
I’m most excited about Shadow Lands, Splintered & Vortex!
Thanks for the giveaway!
Oh, and Level 2… How did I even miss that one?
There’s just so many books, haha! And isn’t the cover for Shadowlands fantastic? It gives me serious cover lust!
The book for janurary I’m most excited for is Shades of Earth by Beth Revis !!! so so excited though Through the evernight is a close second!!!
I really need to read ACROSS THE UNIVERSE!
Prodigy!
YEAH!
Thank you for the giveaway!
and gosh I’m actually excited about all of them! Maybe most about Just One Day, The Archived, Level 2, … arrrgh can’t stop 🙂
There are so many good ones, but I think I’m most excited about either Timekeeper or Paper Valentine : )
I am so excited for Shades of Earth by Beth Revis! I cannot wait to read the end of this series!
I just finished reading Under the Never Sky like two hours ago so it’s a good thing the sequel comes out tomorrow. I’m also dying for Shades of Earth.
Hahaha – good timing! It’s always nice when you don’t have to wait a year (or more!) for the next in a series to come out 🙂
Prophecy, The Cadet of Tildor, and Shades of Earth. But especially Shades of Earth.
So many amazing books came out/are coming out this month! I am super excited to read Level 2!!
So am I! It sounds incredible!
Oh goodness. I’ve read THROUGH THE EVER NIGHT, so I’m super-excited about that one, but I especially can’t wait for my preorder of THE ARCHIVED to come in.
I can’t wait for the Madman’s Daughter! I love retelling of a classic story!
SO MANY. But I’m mostly waiting for The Archived.
Oh gosh…. Where do I begin. Some new releases I’m looking forward too is The Madman’s Daughter, and Prodigy 🙂
I’m so excited for Shades of Earth, to find out how it ends! And also Vortex. I loved Tempest! 🙂
The Archived!!!!!!! 😀
Through the Ever Night is at the top of my list!
I’m most excited for Gayle Forman’s Just One Day. I’m also looking forward to Everbound by Brodi Ashton. She’s a Utah author and I’m keeping my fingers crossed I can go to her release party at the King’s English Bookstore. They have some pretty great release parties. There’s usually cake. Mmmm cake. I can’t believe it but I haven’t read Legend yet. What is wrong with me? But I have a feeling as soon as I read it I’m going to want Prodigy.
So many good books to choose from and SO little money. Good thing there’s libraries 😉
Mer
<3
MMMMMMM! Cake!
And you’ll DEFINITELY want to read PRODIGY as soon as you finish reading LEGEND! (And it’s SOOOO good! And intense! And awesome! Seriously, you’ll love it!)
And thank God for libraries! 😀
Hands down, I can’t wait for Everbound by Brodi Ashton.
I’m excited for Splintered, Just One Day, and The Archived! 🙂
I’m most excited about THROUGH THE EVER NIGHT and THE MADMAN’S DAUGHTER, but there are a number of great releases this month. 🙂
Cadet of Tildor
PAPER VALENTINE, THROUGH THE EVER NIGHT, SHADES OF EARTH, THE PREY, THE MADMAN’S DAUGHTER, ASUNDER, VORTEX, EVERBOUND AND PRODIGY are all books I’m excited to read! It’s just impossible for me to pick one of these that I’m more excited for than the others 🙂
I know, it’s a pretty unfair question to ask, hahahahaha! :p
Prophecy, and Shades of Earth, and Cadet of Tildor, and Star Wars: Scoundrels.
And I wonder why I have money problems…
So many awesome books coming out! Definitely excited for Vortex, Prodigy and Requiem. I want to check out Level 2, as well.
I’m excited about so many of these, but especially THROUGH THE EVER NIGHT and JUST ONE DAY.
A finished copy of Prodigy!
The ARC was great, so I can’t see the real copy out.
Just One Day too. 🙂
Through the Ever Night and Prodigy!! I can’t wait for Prodigy especially because I just bought Through the Ever Night!!
All of them!! Especially Madman’s Daughters and Prodigy!
