1. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by JK Rowling- who ISN'T looking forward to reading this one? I'm considering reading all of them again before starting this book, but I know I'll never have the time!2. The Lollipop Shoes by Joanne Harris - A sort of sequel to Chocolat. She went a bit off since Coastliners, I hope this is a return to what we all used to know and love...
3. The Voice of the Gods by Trudi Canavan - I've loved this series! And am looking forward to sleepless nights reading it!
4. The Book Thief by Marcus Zusak - I've heard good things about this book!
5. Outcast by Michelle Paver - So long to wait! I'm a bit disappointed because I've always read the books as advance reading copies and now I don't work in a book store! Wah!
6. New Moon by Stephenie Meyer - I've read the first book in the series maybe 10 times already! I seriously had a dream the other day about these books. That's slightly worrying.
7. How to Be Popular by Meg Cabot - I heart Meg Cabot and all of her books! And I can totally relate to being a social outcast :)
8. Nightrise by Anthony Horowitz - Children's books are the best! Especially Anthony Horowitz books (Alex Rider is so cool!)
9. Here Lies Arthur by Philip Reeve - Haven't heard anything about this, but I love the author! (How great was Mortal Engines?)
10. Burning Bright by Tracy Chevalier - One of my favourite authors! (And I don't know why exactly I like her books, I just can't explain it)
11. Ines of my Soul by Isabel Allende - Not sure what it's about, but I'll try it!
12. Skylight Confessions and Incantation by Alice Hoffman - I adore Alice Hoffman's style of writing!
13. 31 Dream Street by Lisa Jewell - An author I've only just found and now love!
Should get those books. I love books. And I think it's good that parents love books so that they can influence their children to love books as much as they do.
ReplyDeleteHappy TT!
I miss reading. I use to read back in the day (prekids).
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of most of these! I have been off of reading since knitting and blogging took over! I'd love a sequel to Chocolat, too!!

Great list, a lot of those are on my read soon list too. Harry Potter, of course, but I have to finish my reread first. Twilight is on my list instead of New Moon. I love Meg Cabot, and I'm reading The Book Thief right now. The writing in it is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI have one of these on my bookmooch wishlist (The Book Thief) and one preordered (guess which one?).
ReplyDeleteI am eagerly awaiting (and dreading) Harry's arrival...just 85 more days, but who's counting!
ReplyDeleteThere's still plenty of time for a re-read, I've been doing on myself.
"How to be Popular" is brilliant. Really really funny. I bought it the other day along with Missing You which started off a bit ropey, but then got fab.
ReplyDeleteI will have to get my hands on Burning Briaght as well. I love everything she writes though - like you - I can't explain why.
ReplyDeleteA great list for summer reading. Of course we're all terribly excited for the HP book too--a big topic of conversation around here!
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard of Incantation! Time to head over to the library.
ReplyDeleteI think I need to get out more. Or rather, stay in more. I didn't recognize half those books. :-)
