This week's theme: Top Ten Anticipated 2015 Debuts

 Only a couple of these are actually debut novels, and the rest are 2015 releases that I'm dying to get my hands on.
 17878931
I've been seeing this on a lot of blogs lately so I'm excited to read this one for myself!
 18190208

Fantasy, political intrigue, ghosts, pirates, witches...basically everything awesome in one book.
 18081228

Spies and fantasy. Yes.
 Thorn-Emberlain\
Thorn of Emberlain - basically I need this book THIS INSTANT. Locke and Jean, I'm dying to see how your story continues, especially after that bombshell in book 3!
 

I wasn't a huge fan of Throne of Glass or the novellas, but then I read Crown of Midnight and LOVED IT. I'm now a huge Sarah J Maas fan and will do anything to get my hands on all her books.


Speaking of Sarah J Maas...Throne of Glass #4 
 
What's an anticipated release list without a Sanderson novel?
 

...and another Sanderson novel: Shadows of Self (Mistborn #5)
 
I already read Fool's Assassin before I realized I should have started with Assassin's Apprentice. Now I'm working my way through her old books but I'm still excited for Fool's Quest!

Last but certainly not least, ADSOM I NEED YOU NOW.

What books are you looking forward to? Let me know in the comments!

    Red Queen and The Witch Hunter are on my list too! They sounds absolutely incredible. I haven't read Heir of Fire yet, I might wait until I'm closer to the release date of the 4th one. And aCoTaR: so excited for that one!


    I haven't read anything by Robin Hobb yet but I really want to. And I've only read the first book in the Gentleman Bastards. I saw that the release dates of the books are quite far apart in that series and I don't want to be in another situation like I am with a Song of Ice and Fire.


    Such a great list!

    I wonder if Thorn of Emberlain will hit. So far the signs seem to suggest it is on track. I will be first in line if true.

    Red Queen was on my list as well even though I'd already read and loved it.

    Thank you!
    I haven't read Heir of Fire yet either, but after Crown of Midnight I need it ASAP. Robin Hobb's books are very slow, but I think they're worth it so far. I guess stopping with the first Gentleman bastard book is good because once you pick up books 2 and 3 the cliffhangers will have you dying for more!

    I'm a little concerned about it getting pushed back more because there's still no official release date, but last I heard it's coming out this fall. I really really hope that's true!

    THRONE OF GLASS #4! All the Sanderson. I need ALLLLLLL the Sanderson. I'm determined to read all of his books by the end of the year, which shouldn't be too difficult because they're epic. I also want to get into Robin Hobb's books! AND ADSOM YAAASSSS

Top Ten Tuesday 54 - Book to Movie/TV adaptations

Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted by  The Broke and the Bookish . This week's theme: Top Ten Movie/TV show adaptations of books I've read Sometimes movies and TV shows do a great job of portraying the spirit of the books they're based on, and sometimes they really don't. Here are a few adaptations I loved and some that I felt were lacking. Great Adaptations 1. The Hunger Games/Catching Fire/Mockingjay       Stunning visuals, pitch-perfect portrayal of the characters, and just enough new changes to keep the movies fresh. 2. Harry Potter The movies captured the spirit of the books so well, and again, all the actors did an amazing job of portraying the beloved book characters. Some movies did better than others, but I'm generally really happy with these! 3. The Book Thief     I was really nervous about watching this because The Book Thief is one of my favorites. I shouldn't have been worried, because this movie captured t

Way of Kings Readalong: Gender roles on Roshar

We've seen a little bit about the differences in what members of different genders are allowed and encouraged to do. I thought it was interesting how things like reading were entrusted only to women, since reading is how you gain knowledge (and power!), and it seems like the men were the ones who wanted all the power in this world. So here's a discussion post about the different gender roles and what some possible implications are. But first, a few words from Brandon Sanderson: I found this video on YouTube where Sanderson talks a bit about gender roles in history and in The Way of Kings. It's only a minute or two in the middle of the video (4:30-6:58), but I thought it was interesting. YouTube is being annoying and I cannot embed the video so here's a link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqeKPBHquOg Gender differences on Roshar A table of some basic differences in genders: Men Women Can read glyphs Can read an

Way of Kings Readalong: Wrap-up

So it's finally over. That was an amazing book! Thank you everyone for joining in and making my first readalong so much fun :) I have said over and over again that Brandon Sanderson is a storytelling god. This book makes me believe it even more fiercely - it takes a mastermind to create such intricate worlds and piece together so many character and plot threads. He does such a great job of feeding you just enough answers/revelations to keep you happy, but keeps you hanging by dangling all sorts of questions for you to answer. Not to mention the bombshells he throws in at the end... Having read Mistborn, I really should have been more prepared for disaster and mindblowing moments towards the end of the book. The end was just bombshell after bombshell - some were interesting revelations, and others were shattering. The bombshells of this week: 1) Navani proves that Dalinar's visions are real , and says his unconscious decoding of an ancient language will help pave the
