Tell Me Something Tuesday!

It has been way too long since I have participated in this fun weekly meme hosted by Heidi at Rainy Day Ramblings. 

Each week she has a question she asks us and all we have to do is answer it. Pretty simple really and so much fun.

This week's questions is:

What are your summer picks for 2014?

(edit: Looks like this is actually next week's question! Apparently I got ahead of myself this week in planning posts.)

I love this question because I am always looking forward to new releases. Even though I literally have a TBR pile in the thousands (yes thousands) I still can't resist those new books.

And even though this is a super easy question to answer, it is also a tricky one because I was lucky enough to get ARCs of some of the ones I really was looking forward to being out this summer. I will list those ones here as well because even though I have already read them I was so excited about them releasing.

First up:

I freaking love this series. So incredibly good. If you haven't tried it yet and love UF this is a MUST READ series.

My review for this one will be posted soon. ;)

And next on my summer lists that I have already read are two YA books that series took me by surprise with how much I fell in love with them:

And

(Review for this one will be posted soon as well so be on the lookout for it this month!)

And last one, Sarah Fine's newest release. I fell in love with her writing after reading her YA series and was so excited that she was coming out with something completely new. Let me tell you, it was fantastic and I am so excited to share my review with you on it in July.

Here are the ones I am most looking forward to that are releasing this summer that I haven't gotten my grubby little hands on.

Top of my list has to be the last book in the All Souls trilogy. It feels like I have been waiting forever for this darn book and I am so excited it is almost here!

Even though I am not ready for summer to be almost over, July can't get here soon enough for this one!

And really that is it for most anticipated. There are tons I want to read but really this is the one that I know I will drop everything else for and start as soon as I get it.

I am also extending this question by adding books that I want to read this summer. I am mostly doing this for my own benefit because I need to write it down and post it somewhere so I won't forget all the wonderful books I am going to try my hardest to get to this summer (and probably fall). 

So here is my tentative summer picks to read this year:

Unravel Me by Tahereh Mafi

I started this series and fell in love with it but have sadly had to put it on hold. I really want to finish it because I just have to know how it ends.

Sixth Grave On the Edge by Darynda Jones

I freaking love this series and I need to get this one read. I can't believe I have held out this long but hey, I guess the longer I wait the less time I have until the next one right?

On Dublin Street by Samantha Young

I have been telling myself I will try this author and keep putting it off. Well, I think it is about time I try one of her books and see for myself what all the fuss is about.


Mortal Danger by Ann Aguirre

It is about time I tried this author as well and this one looks like a good place to start.


The Distance Between Us by Kasie West

I love all her books and I know I will love this one as well.

Written In Red by Anne Bishop

Another one I need to read, plus if I don't read it soon, I think Kim might come after me. 

Cinder by Marissa Meyer

If I don't start this one soon, all my blogging friends might come after me. ;)


Hopeless by Colleen Hoover

Yes I am one of the few pathetic ones who haven't read this book yet. *sigh* see how awful I am and how I am neglecting my poor TBR pile? Shame on me.

Bitter Spirits by Jenn Bennett

I love anything to do with the 1920's and I can't believe I haven't picked this one up before now.


I could go on and on, I have 60 books just sitting on my kindle and I don't even want to tell you how many are in my cloud because it would be embarrassing but I really need a good solid month of just TBR books again here soon or I will never get any of these read. I can't believe I am missing out on so many good read.

So what about you, what books are you dying to read and kicking yourself over not having started yet? I know I can't be the only one that hasn't read all of these.
