Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo
Why: Because I spent a good deal of time in Ravka during 2014, and although this is not the Nikolai spin-off I was praying for, I'm sure this first Dregs installment will be wonderful!

Monstrous by MarcyKate Connelly
Why: I just really want to read a middle-grade about a girl who is seen/sees herself as a monster/is a monster. I feel like the themes will strike a chord with me.

Fish in a Tree by Lynda Mullaly Hunt

Almost Famous Women by Megan Mayhew Bergman
Why: I love the premise!
A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas
Why: I'm one of the only (if not the only) who did not enjoy Maas' debut, however, the concept of Thorns and Roses is really appealing, so I'm looking forward to starting fresh!

Half Wild by Sally Green
Why: I really loved Half Bad, which debuted this past year. I think it's flying under the radar and I hope this sequel can get Green a bit more buzz!
The Game of Love and Death by Martha Brockenbrough
Why: I'm hoping this will live up to the premise, because it's a huge, brilliant concept and I want every bit of that fulfilled!
I Am Her Revenge by Meredith Moore
Why: I haven't seen it pitched as a spin on the Miss Havisham/Estella relationship, but that is what it reminds me of, which is an idea I've thought of before, so I want to see how it could play out!
Denton Little's Deathdate by Lance Rubin
Why: Because this is just my kind of book.
Ensnared by A. G. Howard
Why: Because it's the final chapter in this Weirdified Wonderland, but I have a feeling it will end with a BANG! Or a tea party, one never knows with these kinds of things.
The Orphan Queen by Jodi Meadows
Why: Because Jodi Meadows writes cool things, therefor, I am.
The Death Code by Lindsay Meadows
Why: So excited to see a friend's sequel hit shelves this year, but I'm kind of sad to know that Meadow and Zephyr's story will resolve itself so soon- I think I'm getting too used to multiple sequels.
The Wrath and the Dawn by Renee Ahdieh
Why: It's a retelling. Tell me the story of a retelling and I'll tell you a story of how that retelling found itself in my TBR.
Anne & Henry by Dawn Ius

Anne & Henry by Dawn Ius
Why: A contemporary retelling about historical figureheads. Who also happen to be one of my favorite historical couples to speculate about- Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn. Yes, the king with all the wives, and, yes, the wife whose head was tragically severed from her body at his behest.
