This week's topic is:
Top Ten Most Anticipated Books for 2013
This was yet another hard list to compile because there are so many books that we can't wait to get our hands on next year. These are the ones that we came up with off the top of our heads; we've probably missed a lot and will kick ourselves later for forgetting them.
- Clockwork Princess by Cassandra Clare: This one is a no-brainer for us. We already know that it will be our favorite read of 2013.
- Boundless by Cynthia Hand: Lee has recently become obsessed with the Unearthly series and is really, really looking forward to the conclusion. Ally wants to find out if what she thinks will happen does happen.
- The Indigo Spell by Richelle Mead: It's Adrian! After the jaw-dropping cliffhanger of an ending in The Golden Lily, we're dying to see what's in store for Sydney and Adrian in the next book.
- The sequel to The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater: Another recent read that we've both become obsessed with. We sincerely hope that we'll see this in 2013, or we might just have to cry. Ally loves Ronan; Lee loves Gansey.
- Quintana of Charyn by Melina Marchetta: It's the conclusion to The Lumatere Chronicles. It's a Melina Marchetta book. Therefore, Lee must read it.
- Through the Zombie Glass by Gena Showalter: Ally loved the first book, Alice in Zombieland, and can't wait to read the sequel.
- Requiem by Lauren Oliver: Lauren Oliver writes the most devastating cliffhangers ever. Pandemonium ended with a real doozy, and Lee is eagerly awaiting the release of Requiem.
- Dark Triumph by Robin LaFevers: Ally is really invested in this series and wants to see where it goes from the previous book, Grave Mercy.
- Just One Day by Gayle Forman: Gayle Forman is one of Lee's favorite contemporary YA writers, so this is a must-read for her.
- Through the Ever Night by Veronica Rossi: Lee says: More Roar, please!
And we hold out hope that there will be some kind of news about the next George R. R. Martin book in 2013. If there isn't any, at least we have Season 3 of Game of Thrones to watch!
What books are you most looking forward to reading in 2013? Please link us up!
