Most Anticipated Releases for the Second Half of 2020

Most Anticipated Releases for the Second Half of 2020

June 30, 2020 Posted by angelreads Features, Top Ten Tuesday 8 Comments

This week I’m sharing my most anticipated releases fo the second half of 2020.  Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. 

There has been a lot of release date changes this year. This means books have been pushed back to later in the year. Therefore there are even more books coming out in the second half of 2020. So today I thought I would share some of my most anticipated books for the second half of 2020. 

The Extraordinaries (The Extraordinaries #1) by T.J. Klune: I feel in love with The House in the Cerulean Sea earlier this year, so you bet that I need T.J. Kunes new YA. It sounds fantastic and brilliant and I’ve only heard good things about it already. So that sounds pretty good to me. 

Now That I’ve Found You by Kristina Forest: At first I wasn’t too sure about this one, but I’ve been hearing some amazing things about it. It sounds like it’s going to be such a fantastic novel. That is both fun and heartfelt. 

Inked in Lies (The Fallen Men #5) by Giana Darling: I read the first four books in this series and loved with so much. And I’m so looking forward to this one. It sounds like it’s going to be sexy, heartbreaking. And I need to know more about these men and women. 

Blood & Honey (Serpent & Dove #2) by Shelby Mahurin: I absolutely loved Serpent & Dove when I read this last year. And I dying to know what happens next with these characters. But I’m also so nervous. I hope I love it as much as the first book, I really do. 

Dear Justyce (Dear Martin #2) by Nic Stone: I read Dear Martin earlier this month and loved it so much. It was heartbreaking and powerful and just kicked me in all the places. I can’t wait to see how this one goes. It’s going to be an interesting voice and I’m looking forward to that. 

These Violent Delights (These Violent Delights #1) by Chloe Gong: This one caught my eye from the start time. Any retelling is always on my list of books to check out. Especially ones that have a twist. Plus I’ve already been hearing amazing things about this one. It sounds fantastic. 

The Camelot Betrayal (Camelot Rising #2) by Kiersten White: I loved reading The Guinevere Deception earlier this year and now I cannot wait to read more in this world. I also cannot wait to see what Kiersten White does with the characters this time. 

Chasing Lucky by Jenn Bennett: This got pushed back to November, but I’m still as excited to read as I was earlier this year. I love Jenn Bennett’s books and this one sounds like it’s right up my alley. Bad boy romance – hell yes. 

You Were Made For Me by Jenna Guillaume: I really enjoyed Jenna’s debut novel, and this one sounds like it’s more for me. I think it’s going to hit the right spot and be such a great book. 

None Shall Sleep by Ellie Marney: I could not do this list and not include Ellie Marney’s new book. This normally would not be my jam, but Ellie hasn’t disappointed yet. It sounds like it’s going to be dark, but also addicting. 

And that is it for this week’s Top Ten Tuesday. What are the books that you are looking forward to coming out in the next couple of months? Let’s Chat!

I have a love-hate relationship with this series. I have a love-hate relationship with this series. But I ended up really enjoying this one. It’s best friends to fake dating to-lovers. It’s always been you, bad-boy/good-girl, and I loved that. While Save Your Breath has quite a few tropes, it really leads itself to it, and it works. 

Aleks and Mia have known each other for years now. Since they were teenagers, that angst has been building up this whole time. And you can tell right from the get-go, it’s fantastic. I even wanted more of it, because I love pain. When Aleks went to live with Mia’s family as a teenager, sparks flew, but for many reasons, they both put their feelings aside. And well, now they are not only going to be fake-dating, but they might as well be engaged, too. 

I really enjoyed seeing how both Aleks and Mia both tried to hide how they were feeling throughout the whole ‘fake-dating’ situation, but anyone could see it. They know each other as no one else does. Aleks has a lot going on, and while I do think this was brushed over a little too much, Mia is his centre. Mia is a massive music star and is a female in the industry, so yeah, people don’t respect her. Obvsiouly because why couldn’t a female star be badass and write about the things that she has gone through? Aleks and Mia get each other, and that is very clear from the start; they are both just trying to squash everything. We get to see them slowly start to show how they feel, and well, one night it all explodes. 

Overall, I enjoyed this one a lot; it’s not my favourite of the series, but I had a great time reading it. I liked Aleks and Mia a lot as characeters and while I think the mental health aspect could have been explored a whole lot more, I can see why it wasn’t. The romance was slow and spicy, the angst was great, and the payoff for these two was what they needed.

Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I onl Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I only ended up reading 3 books in. 3 pretty fun books but one of my slowest readings months in a while. 

And I’m going to be honest here it’s because I’ve been constantly reading Heated Rivalry fanfics. 🤷‍♀️ I’m having the best time though. 

How was your reading in February? Any 5  star reads?
