Doin' the Hop!

I really missed doing the Hop last week, so I wanted to make sure to participate this week. If you've never done the Hop, click on over to Crazy For Books and sign up. It's a lot of fun!

This week's question is: What book are you most looking forward to seeing published in 2011? Why are you anticipating that book?

- There are sooo many good ones coming out this year, it's really hard to pick, so I'll just name a few - Desires of the Dead by Kimberly Derting (because I loved The Bodyfinder and can't wait to see what happens next), City of Fallen Angels by Cassandra Clare (because I adore this series), three new books in the Virgin River series by Robyn Carr, Plague by Michael Grant (again, I just love the series) and Possession by Elana Johnson (I met her last year and am excited about the premise of her debut novel).

How about you? Which books are you looking forward to?

Happy Hopping!

  3. Hey! I'm your newest follower. The book I'm most looking forward to is the sequel to Philip Reeve's Fever Crumb published by Scholastic. If you're a fan of Hunger Games or Maze Runner, then check that one out!

  10. The titles of the books you chose are fascinating and a little scary - bodyfinder, possession, etc. Very dark and deep. I sometimes love fantasy too. My book for this Blog Hop is a mystery set in Paris.

  11. Hi Susan, funnily enough, following on from your comment that you'd never heard of any of my faves for 2011, I haven't heard of any of yours either! Great to hear of new titles and new authors via the book hop. Bon Weekend! Tx

  14. The book I’m most expecting in 2011 is by an author I crossed off my “Favorite author” list.

    He’s back on that list now.

    Who’s the author? Raymond Feist? What’s the book? A Kindgom Besieged.

    Hop on over to my website to read all about it – http://www.howardsherman.net

  16. Someday I need to read a lot of those series so I can read the new books. It's amazing that for every series I get to, there's about ten or so I'm still missing out on.

    I love your blog, btw. I'll definitely be following you. :)

Comments make me feel special, so go crazy! Just keep it clean and civil. Feel free to speak your mind (I always do), but be aware that I will delete any offensive comments.

P.S.: Don't panic if your comment doesn't show up right away. I have to approve each one before it posts to prevent spam. It's annoying, but it works!
