2021 Releases I Was Excited to Read But Didn’t Get To

2021 Releases I Was Excited to Read But Didn’t Get To

January 18, 2022 Posted by angelreads Uncategorized 8 Comments

This week I’m sharing the 2021 releases that I was excited to read but didn’t get to. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. 

I read a lot of books last year, but I still wasn’t able to get through everything that I wanted to read. So today, I’m sharing the books that were released last year that I didn’t pick up but wanted to. They are mostly romances, but young adult books that make an appearance. Anyway let’s go, as always these are in no order. 

Bombshell (Hell’s Belles #1) by Sarah MacLean. | The Ex Hex (Ex Hex #1) by Erin Sterling | Her Soul to Take (Souls Trilogy #1) by Harley Laroux | Yes & I Love You (Say Everything #1) by Roni Loren.

Wild Rain (Women Who Dare #2) by Beverly Jenkins | Reel (Hollywood Renaissance #1) by Kennedy Ryan |Last Night at the Telegraph Club by Malinda Lo | The Charm Offensive by Alison Cochrun.

Daughter of the Deep by Rick Riordan | Firekeeper’s Daughter by Angeline Boulley.

And there we go. Those are the 2021 releases that I was excited about but wasn’t able to get to. I am really hoping that I can get to some of them this year. I actually do own most of them so that is a good start. What did you want to read last year but didn’t? Have you read anything on my list? Let’s Chat!

    Firekeeper’s Daughter was one of my favorite books of 2021, and Daughter of the Deep was enjoyable as well. I still have The Ex Hex on my TBR.

    Great list! I had Daughter of the Deep on my TTT today as well, and omg, how could I forget Bomb Shell? It looks and sounds SO good and I’ve heard great things about it. I also can’t wait to check out Charm Offensive and The Ex Hex! I hope you enjoy these books whenever you get to them 😊

    The Charm Offensive was one of my favorites from last year. I do hope you enjoy it when you read it! I also really liked The Ex Hex. I just got my hands on a copy of Last Night at the Telegraph Club and hope to read it at some point this year (fingers crossed). It sounds so good! I hope you enjoy all of these when you read them!

Honestly I haven’t been a lot this year at all, es Honestly I haven’t been a lot this year at all, especially compared to what I normally read. Because you know life but I wanted to share some of my latest reads.

What are some of your latest reads? Anything that has stood out for you? A 5 star? Let’s chat!

Yeah, this is what I wanted. I really enjoyed Vict Yeah, this is what I wanted. I really enjoyed Victoria Wilder’s Bourbon Boys series, and as soon as I heard she was writing a new series, around whiskey and women. Well, hell year. It took me a little bit to get into the book, but after a few chapters, I was hooked. 

Wyn is hiding, hiding from everyone, even when she is there. She is hiding behind so much, and damn, I don’t blame her. We don’t know everything from the start, but we start piecing things together, and my heart broke. And I was terrified for her. But she is a Crowne woman, and that means something. 

We’ve met Julian before, and while he intrigued me before, I am invested now. He is charming, secretive in the best way and will do anything at this point for Wyn. But he is also lost, and somehow he finds his way to Rumour and back into Wyn’s life. 

The romance is hot and steamy and everything that you want. The tension and chemistry in this one is high. Neither Wyn nor Julian wants to really give in or give up on one another, but a lot is standing in their way, honestly, mainly themselves. I just sat there giggling half the time because they are swoon-worthy. 

I would say this is the darkest Victoria Wilder book I’ve read, so double-check those trigger warnings before jumping in because there is a lot that happens. And I don’t think it’s going to die down any time soon because these Crowne women are badass, and I know things are only just getting started. 

Overall, Rumors & Whiskey is hot and sexual. The tension is dripping off the page, and then you are thrown into the terror and horrors of Rumour. You don’t know what is going to happen next, you don’t know who to trust, and there are so many more secrets that have yet to be revealed. I know I am ready for more. Are you?

Thank you to @atriabooksaus for an earc of Rumors & Whiskey 🥃. I’m in love.

March was a better reading month than February for March was a better reading month than February for me, and while I’m still stuck in my heated rivalry fanfiction era I managed to scrap out of it a little this month. 

I reread four books from the sweet omegaverse series and honestly had the best time. I also read two of my most anticipated reads of the year and had a blast. Sadly I did also have my first dnf of the year.

What did you read this March? Any standouts? What are you looking forward to reading in April? Let’s chat!
