Let’s chat in the comments!
Did you participate in this week’s TTT? If so, feel free to share your link below.
Ooh I’ve actually read two of these already. North Is The Night which you know is my new favourite of the year and also Daughter Of Chaos which I adored too. I can’t wait to see how you find them both. Hopefully you’ll fall for them too.
I desperately hope to start the Wayward Childen books next year at some point. I’ve added four from your list to my TBR too. How could I not with vanpires and Egyptian curses involved?
I hope you enjoy all of these and have a wonderful winter. Enjoy Wicked tonight too đ
Yes I actually got both of those recommendations from you đ€ Thanks for that! I hope to be able to read them both so we can chat about them! Just no clue when lol. hahha we really do make each other’s tbrs a lot biggerđ! I am looking forward to seeing what you think about Wayward Children too đ True, those are all hard to resist.
Thank you I hope you have a lovely, not-too-freezing winter and oh my gosh I LOVED Wicked! đ
Oh lol I didn’t realise I’d mentioned Daughter Of Chaos to you as well đ ooh I look forward to that. Definitely keep me posted on how you find them. But yes there’s no rush, I know fitting everything in is tricky. That’s true đ and I kind of get the impression that they’re both too big to start with đ but oh well it’s better than running out of books. I’ll definitely let you know how I find it. Thank you, I hope you do as well. And I’m thrilled about that đđ
I don’t know if you mentioned it directly to me as much as you posted about it and it caught my eye from there đ But I think probably both! I’ll keep you posted for sure. Aha you’re right about that đ!Never running out of books is a blessing for sure đ đ€
I really want to read Greenteeth. North is the Night sounds awesome too!
Yes, they both sound super great, I hope you enjoy any you pick up. Thanks for visiting my blog đ
Upon a starlit tide sounds interesting, I love fairytales.

Yes, that’s what attracted me to it, too. I love fairytales as well! đ Let me pop over to your post!
Greenteeth sounds good!
Here is my Top Ten Tuesday.
It really does!! đ I popped by your blog the other day, and I’m always surprised at how quick you are to comment, it takes me multiple days to get through the messages and blog hopping from TTTs đ (maybe i’m just slow at it)!
I’m really looking forward to the next Wayward Children book!
Me tooo! I will hopefully be reading the ARC this month and I’m so excited!
Such a fun list! Greenteeth and Wooing The Witch Queen are both on my TBR I can’t waitđ
Thank you :D! And that’s awesome, I’m pretty sure your blog is where I first heard about Greenteeth to begin with, so thanks for that haha đ
Typically I’m curious about fairytale stories so I many have to take a closer look at ‘Starlit Tide.’ I haven’t read anything by the author but it sounds like it could be a great read. đ Hope these all end up being amazing reads. đ Thanks for visiting my list today!
That’s a good idea, take a closer look at Upon A Starlit Tide for sure and I hope you like it if you do đ I haven’t read anything by that author yet myself either. Thank you and my pleasure!
So many beautiful covers! North Is The Night and Motheater sound particularly interesting.
I’m glad those two caught your eye! I think they sound so cool too &I agree, there’s a lot of lovely covers in this selection đ
I never pay attention to release dates unless it is a favorite author, and then I often miss those too. Ha!
Thanks for sharing some books to look out for. And thanks for visiting my blog.
It’s definitely a lot to keep track of, I typically only search for new books quarterly and then can’t even keep up with reading all that interest me so I can’t blame you one bit lolol!! My pleasure and thanks for stopping by, Anne! đ
I’ve got The Stolen Queen and Upon a Starlit Tide on my radar! And possibly North by Night.
Oh, that’s great! I hope you end up liking any and all of those that you pick up! đ They all sound fantastic.
Thank you for this list! For now, I’ll pass on any of these because I need to tame that TBR a bit.
My TTT: https://laurieisreading.com/2024/12/03/top-ten-tuesday-2024-backlist-books-final-check-in/
Hehehe I fully understand. I hope you manage to tame that TBR beast a bit, I kind of gave up on taming mine đ!
Ooh nice topic choice! And picks! Pretty much all new to me ones except for A Cruel Thirst! I got my eyes all over this one as I love a good vampire novel and this one sounds incredible!! Loving the cover too!
Thanks for visiting my TTT!
Thank you x2, hehe! đ A Cruel Thirst does sound amazing, I agree I’ve had my eye on it since October when I was searching for Vampire books, I love them too đ Thanks for stopping by!
These all look good, especially The Memoir of Johnny DayWalker and North is the Night.
I’m glad that you found titles on here that appeal to you. I follow the author of The Memoir of Johnny DayWalker on instagram and she is lovely so I am particularly excited for that one and really hoping to get to it!
I am looking forward to The Stolen Queen
Wonderful, I hope you really enjoy it đ !! It looks like it’s a bit outside of my comfort zone but also like something I’ll likely love!
There are already so many books I want to read, that sometimes, I kind of don’t want to know what’s going to be published next!
Ahaha so true. Like I want to know but I also don’t. đ
So much to look forward to! I’m definitely planning to read Adrift in Currents Clean and Clear, and I think I’d like to check out Greenteeth too. These all look amazing!
Yess I’m super looking forward to Adrift in Currents!! And I hope you also enjoy any books from here that you may pick up đ
This is an awesome list and I feel like adding every one of these books to my 2025 radar list and possibly TBR?! đ«Ł I do have A Cruel Thirst already on my list and I’m actually reading an ARC of it now. It’s not at all what I expected it but I’m having so much fun with it. It’s quite the romp! đ€ I hope you enjoy all of these if/when you get around to reading them!
OH wow really? What were you expecting if you don’t mind me asking? I am extra curious now! đČ So glad you’re enjoying it though!
And I am so glad these books all sound good to you too!! đ€ Thank you, Dini đ
How many interesting titles! I have already read Wooing the Witch Queen because I couldn’t wait once the ARC was in my hands!! *_* And I am pretty excited about Green Teeth too! The book sounds interesting and I have read a couple of really interesting reviews!! I cannot wait to start that one, too!
I can’t blame you since it sounds amazing!! I can’t wait! Green Teeth sounds so unique. I’m excited for it and to see what you think of it too đ
WOW! All of these books look interesting. I’ll have to look out for A Cruel Thirst and Wooing The Witch Queen, they sound like books I’d love đ
Thanks for visiting my blog earlier this week!
Thanks, Marwah! đ Yeah keeping a lookout for any books that might appeal to you is a good idea! đ I hope you end up liking them! My pleasure.
This is the second time I see someone mention Green Teeth today. So clearly I must look into it!
OH wow yes, I suppose that’s a sign to look it up! đ
