TOP TEN TUESDAY
January 24, 2017

It’s Top Ten Tuesday, hosted by the wonderful blog at The Broke and the Bookish! This week’s topic was a freebie and I got inspired by my Goodreads list and selected
Ten Books I’ve Been Waiting Ages For

I’ve hopped onto some fandoms a little bit late but don’t worry… these are some epic series that take and epic amount of time to finish! Now I’m not usually one of those people who is like, “Hurry up, already” to their favorite authors but I just cannoooot wait for the following sequels to be released! They’re so epic that I’m so excited for them and I’m constantly stalking checking these authors’ websites and social media accounts for any details on their release dates!

  1. THE THORN OF EMBERLAIN (Gentleman Bastards #4) by Scott Lynch | The Gentleman Bastards series has become one of my all-time favorites! I LOVE the characters, the setting, and clever plot. I inhaled the first three books which were long but they didn’t feel like it and I cannot wait for the final and true release date of THE THORN OF EMBERLAIN!
  2. DOORS OF STONE (The Kingkiller Chronicle #3) by Patrick Rothfuss | Another fantasy series that I absolutely loved and pretty much inhaled. I’m so anxious for any news on DOORS OF STONE but not much has surfaced yet.
  3. WINDS OF WINTER (A Song of Ice and Fire #6) by George R.R. Martin | I mean, does this really need any explanation? I ended up… I guess bingeing the series (over the course of a year though) and I’m so far behind on the show that I’m just dying for the next book… As are we all…
  4. THERE’S SOMEONE INSIDE YOUR HOUSE by Stephanie Perkins | This has been an untitled horror story listed on Goodreads for ages and I can’t wait for something new from Stephanie Perkins that’s outside of an anthology! I’m super excited for it, although I’m such a fan of her love stories that I don’t know how horror is going to go but I’m excited nonetheless!
  5. THE ATZLANTIAN (The Rithmatist #2) by Brandon Sanderson | Okay, so I only just read THE RITHMATIST last year but I did absolutely love it. I thought it was a stand-alone for a little bit until it ended and then found out it was a series! There’s no specific release date for this one but it looks like we’ll be waiting a while. Brandon Sanderson is awesome and has shared full schedules for everything that he’s writing and planning and this one seems to be a while out but I guess it doesn’t really matter since I read everything that he writes and I’ll be reading something of his sometime soon.
  6. STRANGE THE DREAMER by Laini Taylor | The date for this one got pushed back and I’ve been so anxiously awaiting its release! I’ve been dying for more Laini Taylor!
  7. HELLO, SUNSHINE by Leila Howland | I adooooored NANTUCKET BLUE and NANTUCKET RED and I’ve been waiting for a new YA release from Leila Howland! She’s released a few middle grade books but since I don’t read MG, I’ve been waiting for a new young adult! This one finally has a release date for this summer and I couldn’t be more excited!
  8. THE EYE OF ANDROMEDA (The Age of X #3) by Richelle Mead | I wasn’t SUPER into this series but it really was enjoyable and I got more into it with the second book! I was so disappointed with Richelle Mead’s new YA series that I’m sad this one got put on the back burner and there’s not even a release date for it.
  9. VENGEFUL (Vicious #2) by V.E. Schwab | I’m actually not a big V.E. Schwab fan but I did really enjoy VICIOUS a lot. I think this book was kind of put on hold and may not happen but if it does, I’m excited to read it!
  10. PROPHECY OF OZ by Megan Shan | I added this book to my TBR over four years ago in 2012… is this thing ever going to happen? It sounded super awesome and I haven’t heard a peep since!

Which of these books are you waiting for too? Let’s wait anxiously together!

    THORN OF EMBERLAIIIIIIIIN! I haven’t listened to the third book, because I *know* I’ll want to binge right on over to the fourth. Gonna wait until it’s out, first.

    I’m so excited for some of these too! And a bit tired of waiting. Like Winds of Winter! I can’t wait to read Thorn of Emberlain, either. And I don’t know whether Vengeful is happening, but I adored Vicious so I’m definitely interested in it. Great list! 🙂
