Books I'm Hyped About

Last year to be honest, I thought the releases in the book world fell a little flat. Or didn't really happen at all. In 2018 however, I already am looking forward to quite a few books in the near future . Soon they will hopefully be taking up space in my book bag and time away from my studies already causing me stress.



Will there ever be a time when all I have to do in life is cuddle up in a good blanket and read?

We can hope. If it ever happens in the near future I will be reading a few of these...

Recently released, I still need to get my hands on Slutever: a memior and manifesto by Karley Sciortino. A long time reader of her blog, I have so much respect for this lovely lady. If I had the confidence to talk about what me and my boyfriend text back and forth over the phone I doubt I would ever have any sort of social anxiety again. Or at least not on the internet.

I linked the Barnes edition above, but really, not going to lie. The cover I see on Amazon is way more pin-up badass. Will that be the one that comes or...are we slut shaming a bit over there, Barnes & Nobel? Huh? Answer me and send me the pretty edition!

"SLUTEVER is a call-to-arms, a confessional memoir, a slut manifesto, as told by a sex-radical hedonist in a pink PVC mini dress. It's a thoughtful, first-person account of a modern woman, navigating sex, love, casual hookups, open relationships,, bisexuality, BDSM, breakups, sex work, sex parties, and the power of sexual agency, as told from the front lines."

Also coming out this month is The Lucky Ones by Tiffany Reisz. If you know me at all, we can pretty much say that I am just excited about this because, well, Tiffany Reisz. As I have said previously, I would read basically anything she writes. Hard core fan, yep, right over here.

"Allison pieces together the story of her life, she learns the terrible secret at the heart of the family she once loved but never really knew."

I barely even know what the book is about, but I am completely a-okay with that as long as this pretty paperback appears in my hands soon after the release date.



Years ago in the years of my young adult fanatic stage of great books like City of Bones and Vampire Academy, one of the best lyrical beautiful fantasy dystopias EVER was Shatter Me. Restore Me by Tahereh Mafi is the trilogy now becoming a whole series. I am excited and I only hope that the writing will be just as wonderful and inspiring.

"The girl with the power to kill with a single touch now has the world in the palm of her hand."

When I saw that A Court of Frost and Starlight by Sarah J. Maas was coming out everywhere in May, I paused. I thought...weren't we done with A Court of...? Didn't I already cry for these beautiful characters that formed my recent book family? Apparently we are not done being tortured yet.

"As Feyre navigates her first Winter Solstice as High Lady, she finds that those dearest to her have more wounds than she anticipated—scars that will have far-reaching impact on the future of their Court."

Still...count me in for a beautiful Night Court winter solstice- And a great reading year.

What does everyone else have on their 2018 reading radar so far?
