Top Ten Tuesday – Most Anticipated Releases for the First Half of 2021

 

Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.  Top Ten Tuesday has been one of my favorite memes ever since I started blogging, so huge thanks to Jana for taking over the hosting duties!

This week’s TTT topic is Most Anticipated Releases for the First Half of 2021.  There are lots of new releases I’m excited about coming out the first half of the year, so the only challenge here was to narrow my list down to just ten.  It seems like almost all of my favorite authors have books coming out this spring.  As you’ll see from my list, contemporaries and particularly rom-coms are still factoring very high on my priority list, although historical fiction and a little fantasy squeaked in there with Chanel Cleeton, Kristin Hannah and Nicole Glover.

    This is a really interesting set of books, Suzanne – I need to read more Kristen Hannah. She’s a remarkable author and I’ve only read one of her books. Happy reading!

    I’m super looking forward to The Conductors, also! It feels like it was announced forever ago and I’ve been waiting impatiently for it ever since. xD I didn’t know Kristin Hannah had a new book coming out, either! Looks good!

    I automatically add CLo books to my TBR now. I don’t even read the synopsis. I have Eve Brown and The Intimacy Experiment – very excited about both, and would love to get my hands on Henry’s new book.

    Fabulous list! I’m excited for soo many of these titles as well–especially Malibu Rising! And I’m definitely keen to check out more of Kristin Hannah’s work. The Conductors is a really popular one on the lists today and I’m quite excited to read it too and the cover is so beautiful. I hope you enjoy all of these books 😃
