After a one month hiatus, I am finally backkkk! My summer job is over, school isn’t starting up yet, I’m feeling a little bit less stress with all the things going on in my life, and I am feeling completely refreshed. -stretches arms-
So I wanted to do something fun for my I’m backkk! post, racked my brain for a little while, and thought hey, why not share my most anticipated 2015 books that are not yet released? I’ll also be adding the ones I’ve read that aren’t released yet because I want to tell you guys how amazinggggg they are.
I’ve read and loved Vengeance Road already – in fact, it might me by favorite Western. Kate is brave, she’s kickass, and the setting of the book just makes me swoon, especially when you see Erin Bowman’s Pinterest for her book.
I’ve also read half of Illuminae on my trip to ALA and I deeply enjoyed it. Now to only find some time to finish reading it…
And who isn’t excited for Winter? I NEED to see how it all ends! (Aka there better be a happily ever after for all characters.)
I haven’t read any of Rae Carson’s books, but Walk On Earth A Stranger sounds amazing and I can’t wait to see how it all ends in Their Fractured Light.
I’ve read and loved every single book Mindy McGinnis wrote, so I know I’ll love A Madness So Discreet. There’s no doubt everybody is waiting for Queen of Shadows and The Immortal Heights.
I really enjoyed reading Tonight the Streets Are Ours – my review will be going up soon – and I definitely can’t wait to read Dark Wild Night -winks-.
What are your most anticipated 2015 books for the rest of the year?
And what would this post be without a giveaway? I’m giving away finished copies of two of these books and you get to choose which two you want to win.
Terms & Conditions:
- This contest is open INTERNATIONALLY.
- The giveaway will run until October 1, 2015.
- You must be 18 years or older, or have parents’ permission to enter.
- All your entries will be disqualified if you pickup entries for something you haven’t done. (I had to do this for so many of my last giveaways, please don’t make me do this again.)
- If you only use ONE account to do all these tasks and enter under different names, they will still only constitute as ONE entry.
- If the winner does not respond to my e-mail within 48 hours, I will have to choose another winner.
- I am not responsible for any items lost in the mail.
For me it’s a toss-up between four of the books. Winter, Vengeance Road, Their Fractured Light, and Tonight the Streets are Ours. There have been so many great reviews for Vengeance Road already. It will be hard to choose.
I’m most excited for Winter and Tonight the Streets are Ours. I’ve heard a lot of good stuff about Illuminae though, so I’m definitely interested in that one. I’ve also seen a lot of people say they don’t like westerns but really liked Vengence Road. There are just too any good books coming out over the rest of the year!!
I would choose Illuminae I WANT IT SO SO SO MUCH :D
Angel recently posted…BOOK REVIEW: How to Love by Katie Cotugno
I would like to win Illuminae and Vengeance Road.
Thank you for another awesome giveaway. I can’t wait to get my hands on Winter. Only read Cinder, but that is because I like to wait until the series are finished and binge read. So far, I am in love with the Lunar Chronicles!

THanks for another awesome giveaway Kelly.
I’m looking forward to Andrew Smith’s Winger sequel and A.S. King’s I Crawl Through It

Winter for sured. I am reading Scarlet now. Loving the series. Probably Vengeance Road…not sure about the second book.
Glad you had a rejuvenating holiday, hope it was great?
My picks would probably be Illuminae and Queen of Shadows, OR Vengeance Road and Walk On Earth A Stranger but all the books are great ones it is hard to chose just 2.
Winter and Queen of Shadow would be the two I picked.
I am the most excited for Winter and I so agree they’d better all get their happy endings!
Welcome back!
Molly Mortensen recently posted…Nice Dragons Finish Last By Rachel Aaron
My first pick would definitely be queen of shadows and then probably illuminae
Woo, so happy to see you back. And I’m even happier to hear about how you’re doing! It’s awesome to know that you’re feeling less stressed and more refreshed!
I’ve actually not been paying much attention to new releases / books about to be released because the only book on my radar is Queen of Shadows and that just sorta unintentionally eclipses all other books haha. I just really REALLY want to know what happens next with Celaena and everyone else!
Annie recently posted…Latest Obsessions: June 2015
Hmm, so hard to choose. Maybe Walk on Earth a Stranger and Reawakened. Thanks for the giveaway!

I am looking forward to reading Forever With You & Oblivion by Jennifer L. Armentrout.
I would choose WINTER and WALK ON EARTH A STRANGER! Thanks for the giveaway!! :-)
wow! what a spectacular giveaway, Kelly, thank you! glad to hear your life is easing into a less stressful phase and hopefully that gets you back to doing what you love — reading. : )
I can’t wait for these up and coming releases. there are so many great stories (continuing or otherwise) on the horizon. I think Winter might be my most anticipated because that brings the Lunar Chronicles to a close.. but the same could be said for Their Fractured Light & Immortal Heights. aaaa so many great things!
thanks again.
I’d love to win Walk on Earth a Stranger – I loved Carson’s Girl of Fire and Thorns series! Another book I’m anticipating – but wasn’t on your list – is Soundless by Richelle Mead. I’ve never read anything by her, but this new synopsis sounds brilliant.

I’d really like to read Vengeance Road or Winter. I recently purchased the Lunar Chronicles but haven’t yet gotten round to reading them but I’ve heard sooo many amazing things about them!
Wow – it’s so hard to choose just 2 because I can’t wait to read all of these books! I’m glad you’re back! Thanks for this amazing giveaway – I would love to win Winter, Queen of Shadow or Walk on Earth a Stranger!
I think I’d choose Winter & Walk On Earth A Stranger. I was lucky enough to read Illuminae recently and wow it’s good! Also can’t wait for Queen of Shadows – so many fab books still to come this year!
Rhoda K recently posted…Review: Robin Hood: Demon’s Bane – Mark of the Black Arrow
What a difficult choice! I’d probably go with Vengeance Road and Their Fractured Light, since I’ve read a few of the other titles already.
Oooooh, A Madness So Discreet sounds really intriguing and I’m so excited for Illuminae! The hype for that book! Welcome back, Kelly! :)
Salwa recently posted…Insurgent Movie: Review & Discussion

Glad to see you back Kelly! To be honest, I haven’t been up to date to new publications for 2015! But I am very curious about the Throne of Glass series. :D
Jules recently posted…Book Review: The Zeuorian Awakening by Cindy Zablockis
I’d love any of these! I’d probably have to pick Their Fractured Light and The Immortal Heights.
Thanks for the giveaway.
Thanks for the giveaway! So many books I’m still looking forward to this year … Queen of Shadows is the one I’m most excited for, but I’ll definitely be buying that on release day, so if I won I would pick Winter. Can’t wait to see how the series ends, but at the same time I’m sad it will be over :(
I would pick Queen of Shadows and Winter!!!
I would choose A Madness so Discreet, and Winter! But I am really excited for Six of Crows and I can’t wait till Winter comes out!

Persuasion by Martina Boone is my most anticipated 2015 book! The Immortal Heights is going to be the death of me! I need it so bad. :)
Well, it’s a hard choice because there are SO many good books coming out in 2015. But I think my number one most anticipated release is Queen of Shadows because ToG is my fave series; I need it! My other anticipated books are mostly the same as yours, though. :) I’ve heard so many good things about all the books above, they’re all so unique!!
Fatima recently posted…Blogger Recognition Award

Hmmm… what would I choose??? Probably Walk On Earth A Stranger or Vengeance Road – mainly because I already have a pre-order for Illuminae and have Queen of Shadows (eeep!)
Kristy @ Book Nerd Reviews recently posted…Brilliant Bookish Blogs
Thank you for hosting this giveaway, I am especially excited for Walk on Earth A Stranger at the moment. I used to be so hyped for Illuminae, but I feel that the overwhelming amount of review copies, media hype, etc have ruined the buzz for me – I feel like it’s already old news and it hasn’t even been released yet haha. Oops.
Aentee @ Read at Midnight recently posted…Discussion: How Much Realism Should We Expect From Fantasy Fiction?
My two would probably be Queen of Shadows and a A Madness So Discreet! Thank you for doing a giveaway!
Maybe Vengeance Road. I already have an ARC but a hardcover would be great! I can’t pick between A Madness So Discreet and Walk on Earth a Stranger but ok, A Madness So Discreet wins!

Aimal Farooq recently posted…Top 5 Wednesday | Books that Deal with Mental Illness
I can’t remember my most anticipated 2015 books from before now, but from now until the end of 2015 (including books I have yet to read that were released earlier this year), they are The Rose Society by Marie Lu and Soundless by Richelle Mead. Those two are definitely tied for first. Second would be Illuminae and A Madness So Discreet. Third is Vengeance Road and Walk On Earth A Stranger. I would add Queen of Shadows to the list, but I need to catch up on the series first. The Immortal Heights looks great too, but I have no idea what it’s about. (I’ve heard of it before, but haven’t read the synopsis yet.)
A Madness So Discreet and The Immortal Heights.
Such great books to choose from! I’m thinking I’d probably choose Illuminae (it’s one I’m the most eager for!) and Vengeance Road! Thank you so much for the giveaway! :-D

I think I would choose The Immortal Heights and Vengeance Road. Thank you for the chance to win!
