Most Anticipated Books Releasing In the First Half of 2022

Most Anticipated Books Releasing In the First Half of 2022

January 4, 2022 Posted by angelreads Top Ten Tuesday 10 Comments

This week I’m sharing some of my most anticipated books releasing in the first half of 2022. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. 

I love and hate making this list. It’s a great way for me to figure out what is coming out, but I also miss so many books that I also want to read that are coming out at the start of the year. I’m not at the best at always keeping up to date when books are coming out, so I just forget so many books.  But anyway here are some of the ones that I want to read early 2022. 

There is a mix of young adult and romance, but I’m not going to lie, I think it’s going to be another romance reading year. And I’m so ready for it. Anyway, let’s get right into it. Here are some of my most anticipated reads for the first half of 2022. 

Electric Idol (Dark Olympus #2) by Katee Robert | Beautiful Nightmare (Dark Dream Duet #2) by Giana Darling | Always Jane by Jenn Bennett | So This Is Ever After by F.T. Lukens.

Untitled (The Fallen Men #7) by Giana Darling | The Savage (Kingmakers) by Sophie Lark | Secrets We Hunt (One Night #2) by Dana Isaly | I Kissed Shara Wheeler by Casey McQuiston.

Under One Roof by Ali Hazelwood | A Duke for Diana (Designing Debutantes #1) by Sabrina Jeffries

And there we go. Those are just some of the books that I am looking forward to reading in the first half of 2022. What books made it to your list? Do we share any books that are the same? Let’s have a chat!

    It’s hard not to miss some with so many books coming out constantly. I haven’t heard of most on your list, but am already thinking some belong on my wish list. I want to read Katee Robert’s last book still which I heard so much about. I hope you get a chance to read and enjoy all of these!

    I can’t seem to pay attention to what is coming because I’m still paying attention to what I missed. Ha! I’m off the board this week. My TTT is my favorite book club selections this past year

    I’ve only visited three blogs so far and I’ve already added over 6 new books to my 2022 releases list… And I think I’ll be adding a few more from here. I had Electric Idol on my TTT too and I can’t believe I forgot Secrets We Hunt—definitely looking forward to reading more by Isaly! I hope you enjoy all these books 😃

    I also want to read Shara Wheeler and So This is Happy Ever After. I’m also curious about Neon Gods – hope the sequel is great.

    Always Jane looks great. I’m with Dini—I’ve been to three sites and have three new books to read. There are 100 people participating so far…so I may have enough books to get me through to July!

    My list is here— https://fiftytwo.blog/2022/01/04/ttt-auto-buy-authors/

    Happy TTT!

April was a very good reading month for me, especi April was a very good reading month for me, especially after last month. I had some really fantastic reads in April. I did do a lot of re-reading this month but I had such blast. I re-read Caught Up and Play Along and the first 4 books in the Ironside Academy series. 📚

I read some books that I’ve been waiting for including the new book from Kels and Denise Stone, as well as the new Tessa Hale. ✨

Overall it was such a good month, lots of binge reading series and starting on some new authors. I’m so excited to see what May brings. 🖤

What was your favourite book that you read in April?

IT’S RACE WEEK! 🏎️ If you didn’t know al IT’S RACE WEEK! 🏎️

If you didn’t know already I love F1, have ever since I was younger and decided that this year it would be fun to combined my love for F1 and reading together. 📚

After a week off we are back at it. We are in Miami this week’s and things are only just heating up. This week I’m reading Falling Off the Cliff  Kanitha P.

…

Formula 1 legend in the making and rising star Thiago Valencia is chasing redemption as well as his second World Champion title. With a tarnished reputation and an undetermined future in F1 that hangs by a terribly loose thread, he can’t afford to lose his seat. Thiago is ready to do anything to redeem himself and erase his past mistakes. When a mysterious woman intrudes on his private party in Monte Carlo, he is certain the universe has brought his polar opposite into his life as salvation. He is sunshine, she is moonlight; he is a bright star and she is a moonbeam.

Destiny takes the wheel, steering Kamari into Thiago’s orbit, but her open disdain and closely guarded heart warn her to stay away. Enchanted by her charms, Thiago is intent on melting her freezing barriers and tearing down the walls shielding her heart.

When Kamari agrees to help him save his future by being his fake girlfriend, the unexpected happens, triggered by a game of lies, secrets and desire.

As they plunge towards the finish line, the race veers offtrack and neither of them are ready to fall off the cliff.
… 

How Race Week Reads Will Work 

On Monday of race week I’ll announce the book I’ll be reading for the week, then throughout the week I’ll be posting stories and my thoughts. And then on Sunday, race day my review and final thoughts will go up.

A little late but I am finally getting to share Ra A little late but I am finally getting to share Race 5’s Race Week Reads review. This week I read, Downforce (Pit Lane #1) by Hannah Lily.

🏎️ Review 🏎️

I had so much fun reading this book. I knew I was in for a ride as soon as I started Downforce. It was entertaining, fun, and I just had a good time reading it. And while it does explore some heavy topics, I don’t think it took away from the fun nature of the book.

Right from the start, we can see the tension between F1 Presenter, Olivia Fraser and F1 Driver, Jonah Scott. And while silly at times, it was fun seeing them interact together. Both really didn’t like each other. They both had said things about and to one another that sometimes it caused chaos. And I was here for it.

I did find that at times, just silly things happened. I am not a massive rom-com reader, and there was a lot of falling into one another, and arguments stemmed from nothing. This is honestly just because I don’t like these types of scenes, but it didn’t really make me dislike the book at all.

I loved the whole road trip aspect of the book, it’s different from other F1 books I’ve read so far this year and just made for some interesting banter and lust. I do wish that the road trip was a little longer than it was because I did feel like the romance moved pretty quickly here, but again, it didn’t really affect how much I was enjoying the book.

The romance was this combination of being slow burn and full of angst right at the start, to the road trip happening and then bam. But I loved it, though. The banter between Olivia and Jonah was fantastic. I loved seeing them grow not only with one another but with themselves as well.

Overall, I had a great time reading Downforce and will be continuing the series for sure when the other books come out. The romance was angsty and just felt right. The found family aspect really worked well here, and the F1 aspects were pretty okay. Not the best I’ve seen, but not the worst either. If you are looking for a fun read that has a great romance and a little rom-comy, then pick this one up.
I’ve already had a pretty amazing reading year. I’ve already had a pretty amazing reading year. There have been so many books that I have enjoyed but there are some that I have just loved. 🖤

I didn’t realise before I put this post together that all of these books are from authors I’ve read and loved before. There hasn’t been a Rebecca Yarros book that I haven’t rated under 4 Stars. Elsie Silver is just making me love everything that she writes. Wild and Wrangled may be my favourite in the series. 📖

Three rereads also made it to this list. Binding 13 still makes me gasp and smile all at the same time. And Caught Up and Play Along just hit every time. 📚

I’ve honestly had a great year so far and since making this post a few more books I’ve read I’ve ended up loving. It’s going to be hard to pick my favourites at the end of the year that is for sure. ✨

What books have you loved reading this year? Are any books that made my list on yours? Let me know!
