I know, I know. Today's topic is supposed to be Most Anticipated Book Releases for the First Half of 2020 but I'm not doing that. I mean this is still my MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK RELEASES post but it's just not specifically for the first half of 2020. This is just a list in general of the books to be releases this year that I want to read.
I'm not including 2020 releases of books I've already read in this post.
I've also limited 10 books per section. I have waaay more books I'm excited for but I just narrowed it down to 10 because it's... top TEN Tuesdaynoreallyidontwantthistobeaverylongpost
This list is quite long so I didn't bother adding info of each individual book because this could go on forever. Instead, click on the covers and you'll be directed to the book's Goodreads page.

YOUNG ADULT CONTEMPORARY
(a lot... or majority of these are contemporary romance)

YOUNG ADULT FANTASY

ADULT/NEW ADULT CONTEMPORARY ROMANCE
(I just realized I don't have that much romance in my 2020 TBR)
THRILLERS / MYSTERIES / HORROR
SEQUELS / PART OF OF A COMPANION SERIES
That was quite a post..
So, what about you?
What books are you anticipating for?
So much awesome looking stuff on the way. I love the covers on the YA contemps... that whole cover style is just working for me lately. One Of Us Is Next, the Sundown Motel and Zoe Spanos all look awesome too. Can't wait to rad those three.
ReplyDeleteI love love LOOOVEEE illustrated covers. I feel like they tell you what the book's about without giving the story away. AND YES TO THOSE THREE! I'm so eager to read more thriller/mystery this year and so many upcoming books from the said genre sound intriguing.
DeleteSo many gorgeous looking books. I just read City of Brass at the end of last year and I can't wait to continue with that series. I am also really looking forward to Seven Deadly Shadows.
ReplyDeleteRight?? The covers are just *heart eyes emoji*
DeleteSame, and I haven't read the second book because I am waiting for the third book's release date to come. I want to read The Empire of Gold with a fresh memory of the events of The Kingdom of Copper. I just recently discovered Seven Deadly Shadows but it immediately landed on my TBR.
I really want to read Darling Rose Gold, One of Us is Next, Beach Read, You Deserve Each Other, andddd Only Mostly Devastated. Fun list!

Sooo many books to look forward to!
DeleteI don't read a lot of contemporary, but You Deserve Each Other sounds fun! Here is our Top Ten Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteIt does! I love enemies-to-lovers trope but this? A lovers-to-enemies-to-lovers? SIGN ME UP.
DeleteI love how you went all out! So many great sounding books. As you noted on my blog, we even have a few in common. 😊 So many of these others interest me as well. Darling Rose Gold is one for sure. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteI recently just discovered Darling Rose Gold and it sounded interesting that I can't help add it to the TBR. Plus the cover's also really pretty really help drawing me to the book. HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU TOO! 💕
DeleteI’m definitely excited for The Honey-Don’t List. Any new release from Christina Lauren makes me happy. :) And Rage and Ruin seems sooo far off! June feels like forever to wait to find out what happens after that ending in Storm and Fury!
ReplyDeleteI badly want Rage and Ruin but I feel like the wait is also going to be worth it. I miss my girl Trinity Marrow so much!
DeleteLook at all these amazing looking books! I am really excited for The Gilded Ones and that cover! Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely one of the books that I'm eager to read! The pretty cover's such a bonus.
DeleteI see so many books I have read or want to read. Obviously, YA contemporary is all about my TBR/Read shelf. LOVED Tweet Cute. It was perfection for me. Every Other Weekend was near perfect (4.5 stars). Also really enjoyed Loveboat, Taipei. I will definitely read more of Wen's work. All the other YA contemporaries are on my TBR and they all sound amazing! I am reading Worst Best Man at the moment, and I am enjoying it. Though I am not a fan of brothers dating the same woman, I like the dynamic between the hero and heroine. I think every other one of the adult contemporaries are also on my TBR. I read two of the sequels. I loved Marriage on Madison. It was my favorite of the three, and I rated Love Her or Lose Her higher than it's predecessor as well. I adored the couple and loved cheering for them to find their way back to each other. So many good books on this list!
ReplyDeleteI also feel like Marriage on Madison Avenue is going to be my favorite out of the three. I've been looking forward to Audrey's book ever since I found out about the best-friends-to-lovers trope it'll serve. I got Loveboat, Taipei and I'm so excited to read this especially knowing how positive the feedback are and seeing the Asian representation.
DeleteThis is such a great list! Definitely will check these books on goodreads. Also I hope you love Tweet Cute and Loveboat, Taipei, those are the ones I've read and enjoyed!
ReplyDeleteA big part of me thinks I'm going to love both books. Nothing but good things are what I hear (or read) when I come across reviews of these two!
DeleteI read that Lauren Layne book already. It's my favorite in the series, so you have something great to look forward to!
ReplyDeleteAahh, I have a feeling it'll be my favorite out of the three too!
DeleteYou highlighted so many good upcoming books! I am excited for The Midnight Lie, Loveboat Taipei and Girl Serpent Thorn. Happy reading this year!
ReplyDeleteThere's just so many good ones out there that it gets so hard to just pick like... ten haha
DeleteI love how you did this! So many books I've never heard of and a few I really want to read! My favorite genres are either horror/thriller/mystery or YA contemporary. So this is amazing.
ReplyDeleteAsh @ JennReneeRead
Ahh thanks~ I'm trying to get into the thriller/mystery genre this year so I hope these ones will be good.
DeleteAll the pretty covers!! 😍
ReplyDeleteTweet Cute sounds fun. Layoverland sounds interesting (I like the premise). You Deserve Each Other I have an ARC for (so I'm excited for that)... I could go on but I won't. Great list!
I'M EXCITED FOR YOU TO READ THAT!! And yes! The covers really help my excitement for these books.
DeleteThis selection is amazing!! One of Us Is Next is the only book on my TTT from this week and I loved it. Hope all of these live up to your expectations!!
ReplyDeleteOne of Us is Next did live up though! I didn't put A LOT of expectations on it but still, it was a good read for me.
DeleteI'm not really a sci-fi reader, but am curious about "The Stars We Steal" (sounds interesting!); "Tweet Cute" is quite fun so far (started it but have to now finish); "The Upside of Falling" simply LOOKS adorable (hope it is inside too!); and I just recently saw "The Princess will Save You" somewhere. It sounds fun! Hope you enjoy ALL of these, and many thanks for the Finding Wonderland visit last week. :)
ReplyDeleteIt does sound interesting! I'm not big on sci-fi too but it really did pique my interest. Thank you, Rissi!
DeleteHallo, Hallo Chai,
ReplyDeleteFinally came to your blog and it felt like a refreshing spin on the topic! Everyone seemed to be picking the same books over and over again; I loved how you took the topic and ran with it! :) Likewise, I was delayed until today to even respond as I had a rocky January! I loved how mine turnt out if you wanted to see which are my Top Most Anticipated Reads for the First Half of 2020?. I can't wait to look into these stories and leave you a note about the ones which interest me most to read! Thanks for such a lovely rounding of genres & selections!!
