I do not have any witty commentary for you all today. I’m simply feeling grateful for how many different options we all have when deciding what to read next.
Here are ten books I’m looking forward to checking out over the next several months.
1. Four Eids and a Funeral by Faridah Àbíké–Íyímídé
Why I’m Interested: I like romances that include a lot of other plot lines, too. This one sounds like it has plenty going on with the story!
2. In Utero by Chris Gooch
Release Date: January 23
Why I’m Interested: One word – aliens.
3. The Unquiet Bones by Loreth Anne White
Release Date: March 5
Why I’m Interested: There’s something to be said for digging up bones buried in the wrong place and hopefully solving the mystery of how that person died.
4. Canto Contigo by Jonny Garza Villa
Release Date: April 9
Why I’m Interested: High school romances can be so much fun to read about.
5.Pretty Furious by E.K. Johnston
Release Date: April 16
Why I’m Interested: Do I advocate seeking revenge in real life? Of course not! Reading about fictional characters getting revenge sounds awesome, though.
6. Supplication by Nour Abi-Nakhou
Release Date: May 7
Why I’m Interested: This sounds really scary, and maybe too scary for me to actually read. If I do find my courage, it will be interesting to see how the main character escapes from the house where she is trapped.
7. The Honey Witch by Sydney J. Shields
Release Date: May 14
Why I’m Interested: The fairytale aesthetic. Imagine being cursed to never fall in love again! I mean, I know some people never fall in love even once in their lives and are perfectly happy that way, but it’s quite a different thought for those of us who have had that experience.
8. The Last Murder at the End of the World by Stuart Turton
Release Date: May 21
Why I’m Interested: The attention-grabbing title. A society without murder sounds appealing, but I’ll bet the catch to living there is going to be a big one.
9.Lies and Weddings by Kevin Kwan
Release Date: May 21
Why I’m Interested: This could be a nice refresher after some of the horror and other darker works on this list.
10.Becoming Who We Are: Real Stories About Growing Up Trans by Sammy Lisel
Release Date: May 28
Why I’m Interested: It sounds interesting.
I’m also interested in The Unquiet Bones for the same reason. The Stuart Turton books sounds good too. Great list!
Here is my Top Ten Tuesday post.

Cool! I hope we both like it. 🙂
I love your list! I’m very curious about The Last Murder at the End of the World, also Supplication sounds really good😁
Thank you. May you like them if you read them.
I still need to give Kevin Kwan a shot to see what all the fuss is about!
I hope you like his stuff!
I don’t do super scary books either but it sounds interesting! Thanks for dropping by my post!
You’re welcome. 🙂
I didn’t know Kevin Kwan had a new book coming out until I saw it on Goodreads or somewhere. I really enjoyed the romance movie adapted from Crazy Rich Asians, but couldn’t get into the novel. Maybe I’ll try again with this new release since the books always sound like good reads. 🙂 Thanks for visiting my website today
You’re welcome. I hope you like Kwan’s new book if you read it.
So excited to read Lies and Weddings! And Four Eids and a Funeral looks interesting.
I hope we both like it.
Great selection! The Unquiet Bones and Honey Witch sound like they’re right up my alley, and The Last Murder at the End of the World caught my attention too with the title. I hope you enjoy them all!
Nice! And thank you.
Ooh, some fascinating titles there! Hope you enjoy them when they come out!

Supplication sound interesting but might be too scary for me too
It’s hard to decide, isn’t it? 🙂
