What books are you hoping to read in 2018?

Bookish Question #44 | What books are you hoping to read in 2018?

My to-read pile falls into three main categories:

1. Review books

2. Writing craft books

3. Books I’ve bought and haven’t read yet

I can’t share my whole list in each category, so I’ll just share the three I’m most looking forward to reading!

 

The review books I’m most looking forward to are:

Winning Miss Winthrop by Carolyn Miller (and the two sequels). I love Regency romance, and I love Christian fiction. Carolyn Miller weaves the two beautifully.

Just Let Go by Courtney Walsh, because I loved Just Look Up so much. Just Let Go is scheduled to release in June.

If I Live by Terri Blackstock, because I loved If I Run and If I’m Found, and I need to know what happens! (This is one of those rare trilogies where each story follows the same main character, so the books have to be read in order).

I have a stack of writing books to read, including:

The Emotional Wound Thesarus by Angela Ackerman and Becca Puglisi

How to Market a Book by Joanna Penn

Characters, Emotion and Viewpoint by Nancy Kress

Then there is the embarrassingly large pile of Kindle books I’ve paid money for and haven’t yet read. Top of the pile are:

The Lady and the Lionheart by Joanne Bischof, because it won all the best book prizes and I seem to be the only person who hasn’t read it yet. Mind you, I haven’t read The Shack either.

A Season to Dance by Patricia Beal, because Narelle Atkins raved about it and I absolutely loved the last book Narelle raved about (The Last Summer by Brandy Bruce). And I won a paperback copy from the author!

Bridge to Haven by Francine Rivers because it’s by Francine Rivers and I haven’t read it yet. Why not? I don’t know.

So what books are you hoping to read in 2018?
