I am most excited about the bridge from me to you release!

Lea Krnjeta said...

On the fence and Kiss of deception, I think they will be great. Thanks for the giveaway and happy summer :D

Octaviana said...

I'm excited for the release of The Half Life of Molly Pierce

Sara said...

The Kiss of Deception sounds AMAZING!

caroline.taylor078 said...

I am most excited about Welcome To The Dark House as it sounds such a great horror and I am loving the fact horror is having a little comeback. Also loving the sound of Dissonance, The Vanishing Season, The Half Life Of Molly Pierce and On The Fence sound great too, so many great July releases.

Courtney said...

There are so many I'm excited about but I'm probably most excited about The Kiss of Deception (only because one of the reviews I've read compared it to His Fair Assassin series by Robin LaFevers) :)

Unknown said...

That's a tough one, but right now I'm kind of thinking Illusive is my #1 for July. I've heard some fantastic things and it sounds pretty unique, so I'm looking forward to reading it!

Arien said...

Not so sure yet! I mean, it's really hard to choose! :)

magic5905 said...

Unwept. Thanks.

Sezzy said...

Tbh, I'm excited about a lot of the above :)

Unknown said...

I would have to say Unwept is probably my choice at this moment.

miki said...

midnight thief and "between" are terribly tempting ^^ i'm glad it's only two because if i were to win i wouldn't have to decide between them it's really too hard

thank you a lot for this generous giveaway

Jillyn said...

I'm really excited to read Dream Boy.

leonorner said...

I'm so torn between The Vanishing Season, The Kiss of Deception, Dissonance, Reckoning and/or Illusive... this one is hard!!!

But still, welcome back and thank you for this amazing giveaway ^_^

Welcome back to blogging. You know honestly I am not too sure what new releases are out. I know that is truly sad for someone like me who is a book blogger. I guess I am so busy trying to finish my list that I am not fully aware of new books lol.

Thanks for the giveaway.
