May releases I can't wait for

There are some great books coming out next month and I’ve been quite good lately as I haven’t brought many books. So I’ve decided that I may have to treat myself and go on a bit of a splurge!

Here is a list of my books coming out in May that I’m most excited about. If you want more information on the books just click on the image and it will take you to the description on Goodreads.

Charlaine Harris - Deadlocked (1st May)

Laura Buzo - Holier Than Thou (1st May)

Veronica Roth - Insurgent (1st May)

Good Oil by Laura Buzo was one of my favourite Aussie books I devoured last year when I was taking part in the Aussie YA reading challenge. So when I heard about her new book I nearly squealed, it sounds fantastic and it looks like I’ll be popping over to Fishpond to order my copy.

I initially couldn’t get enough of Charlaine Harris' series, but as the series has progressed personally I think the books have gotten weaker. However I find that I still can’t stop reading them. I’m hoping that this book will be a lot better than the last one.

Gosh I absolutely loved Divergent I devoured it a few days ago and I don't think my review could ever express just how good this book really is! I've already pre-ordered my copy of Insurgent, so I'll be sitting their impatiently for it to arrive on my kindle, because honestly I need more Four as soon as possible!

Jessi Kirby - In Honor (8th May)

Katie Kacvinsky -  First Comes Love (8th May)

Morgan Matson - Second Chance Summer (8th May)

M. Molly Backes - The Princesses of Iowa (8th May)

Meg Cabot - Underworld (8th May)

Stacey Kramer and Valerie Thomas - From What I Rememeber (15th May)

I know a lot of readers didn’t enjoy Meg Cabot’s Abandon, the style was a lot different to her usual books, but I actually liked the darker tone and feel she went for. And I can’t wait to find out what happens with John and Pierce in Underworld.

Melissa Walker - Unbreak My Heart (22nd May)

Susane Colasanti - Keep Holding On (31st May)

I was extremely lucky to get a galley of Susane Colasanti’s Keep Holding On. I’ve always been meaning to pick up one of her books, so now I have the perfect chance to do so. 

Last but not least, there are also some great contemporaries coming out next month;

A debut from M. Molly Backes – The Princesses of Iowa, about a once popular girl, but after making a mistake one night everything changes and no one wants to know her anymore.

Melissa Walker – Unbreak My Heart. About a girl who had her heart broken when she fell for her best friends boyfriend, now it’s the summer and she meets a new guy can he help her overcome her heartbreak?

Stacey Kramer and Valerie Thomas – From What I Remember. This book sounds like so much fun, it follows the adventures of four teens who find themselves stranded in Mexico. Book covers are really important to me, it’s the first thing that draws me to a book, so I was quite happy when the authors announced this new cover, I prefer it a whole lot more than the other one.

Jessi Kirby’s In Honor. About a girl who embarks on a road trip to fulfil her dead brother's wishes, however she gets stuck on this trip with her brother's best friend, whose quite arrogant but gorgeous too. Just reading the blurb reminds me of Amy and Roger’s Epic Detour, I had so much fun reading it. And I absolutely love books about road trips. I also have a feeling that this will be a heartbreaking read too.

I don’t know about you guys, but these books are certainly getting me in the mood for the summer!

So which books coming out next month are you most excited about? Are there any which aren't on my list?
