Most Anticipated New Releases: Fall 2016

Hi everyone! First of all, I'm sorry that I've been so absent this summer. I got a new job in May, and I've been working more than ever, so I've been super busy. I've been working six days a week all summer, so I've been pretty exhausted. Anyway, you don't want to hear about my job. On a brighter note, school started this Monday, which means less work, which will (hopefully) mean more blogging. Of course, school will also keep me busy, but it will be easier to balance things. Anyway, to start off this autumn, I thought I'd do a post about my most anticipated new releases this fall. There are some books that I can't wait to read, so stay tuned! The books are in no particular order, as I can't possibly decide which one I'm looking forward to the most! I will include links to Goodreads and some preorder links if available.

Pub. date: October 17th 2016
SynopsisI searched for you in the stars tonight. 
But I found none
that burned as bright as you.


—Part of a letter from Dev to Molly


With the loss of Terra’s greatest weapon, the war against darkness escalates rapidly, and time is on no one’s side. While Dev struggles to keep his home and hope alive, Molly and Rae find themselves forced to confront a desperately kept secret and quickly learn that a life-altering sacrifice is the asking price to restore order.

Nightmares, betrayal, the fate of two worlds, and one man’s hunger for vengeance lead Molly down a twisted and dark path she fears she might never come back from. Cornered into making a heart-wrenching decision, Molly teeters between deliverance and damnation. Who is worth saving most—a nation or the one she loves?

From Award Winning author, E.J. Mellow, comes the breathtaking conclusion of The Dreamland Series. A story that will take you on a spine-tingling and gripping ride through self-sacrifice, the true power of love, and the importance of friendship.

At the risk of offending the King and infuriating her parents, she and Jest enter into an intense, secret courtship.

Bright Smoke, Cold Fire (Untitled #1) by Rosamund Hodge

Pub. date: September 27th 2016
Synopsis: When the mysterious fog of the Ruining crept over the world, the living died and the dead rose. Only the walled city of Viyara was left untouched.

The heirs of the city’s most powerful—and warring—families, Mahyanai Romeo and Juliet Catresou share a love deeper than duty, honor, even life itself. But the magic laid on Juliet at birth compels her to punish the enemies of her clan—and Romeo has just killed her cousin Tybalt. Which means he must die.

Paris Catresou has always wanted to serve his family by guarding Juliet. But when his ward tries to escape her fate, magic goes terribly wrong—killing her and leaving Paris bound to Romeo. If he wants to discover the truth of what happened, Paris must delve deep into the city, ally with his worst enemy . . . and perhaps turn against his own clan.

Mahyanai Runajo just wants to protect her city—but she’s the only one who believes it’s in peril. In her desperate hunt for information, she accidentally pulls Juliet from the mouth of death—and finds herself bound to the bitter, angry girl. Runajo quickly discovers Juliet might be the one person who can help her recover the secret to saving Viyara.

Both pairs will find friendship where they least expect it. Both will find that Viyara holds more secrets and dangers than anyone ever expected. And outside the walls, death is waiting. . .
