    1. It is always hard to wait, isn't it? And half the time I forget when they come out and then end up way down at the bottom of the hold list for them and have to wait even longer. ;D

  2. Holly sounds good. I’m amazed by how prolific Stephen King has been.

    Here is my Top Ten Tuesday post.

    1. I think he's written something crazy like 65 novels. It's pretty amazing.

  3. HOLLY is on my list, too. Have you read the other two books in the series? As I read their summaries Holly is barely mentioned. I'm wondering if I can just jump in here after the Mr. Mercedes series.

    1. I haven't read the other two books, but I'm thinking you can just jump in with this one, because this is totally her book. I'm going to just jump in and hope for the best. :D

  4. You're going to love Check & Mate. It was so unique and fun to read.

    1. I so can't wait to read it! I really do love Ali Hazelwood's books.

  5. It's been so long since I read anything by Stephen King that I didn't even know he had a new release coming. Will have to check that one out!

  6. I can't wait for Holly or Hemlock Island - both are favorite authors of mine. I really need to start that Sara Driscoll series because... dogs of course!

    1. I think you'd like the Sara Driscoll series. They've been fun and suspenseful K9 mysteries. And I'm very excited for both Holly and Hemlock Island, too! :D

  7. I've not heard of these, but the covers are definitely eye catching! Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you!

    1. Can't wait to see what made your TTT list this week. :D Thanks for commenting!

  8. Interesting choices. I tried not to look too closely at the plots - I'm starting to feel as if I'm chasing my tail with all the titles that have recently been announced. Too much wishing, and too little reading here lately for me.

    1. I know what you mean! I was hoping to lower my TBR list this year by mostly reading books off of it, but it keeps growing...and growing! ;D

  9. I keep seeing that Kelley Armstrong pop up...

    1. I'm looking forward to that one; I love her Rockton series.

  10. Raider of the Lost Heart sounds like it would be such a fun read!

    ReplyDelete
  11. Ooh, Kelley Armstrong! Is that part of a series? I have a feeling I need to dive into her earlier series that I haven't read. I'm on the fence about reading Holly, but sooner or later I probably will. And argh, I still need to read the 1st wallflower book!!

    1. If it is a series, it's the very first book. And I'm behind on the Wallflower/Merriwell Sisters series, too. I've read the first one, but not the second. Too many books... ;D

      Delete
  12. TRAIL OF THE LOST looks intriguing. I'm also excited for HEMLOCK ISLAND, naturally, since I love Armstrong so much :) I hope you enjoy all these!

    Happy TTT!

    1. Hemlock Island sounds so good. And I'm excited for Trail of the Lost, too. If only my library would get it ordered so I can put it on hold!

      Delete
  13. Raider of the Lost Heart looks fun! I'll have to check that out. I have the Linda Castillo but I'd like to read a few more Kate Burkholders before beginning it. I have the 2nd one on audio that I need to get to. I was happy you said that it's less brutal than the first. I hope we both love Hemlock Island and I'm eyeing That Others May Live. Of course the Ali Hazelwood too! Great list, Lark!

    1. The Ali Hazelwood does look cute; of course, I still need to read Love Theoretically! :D

  14. I am going to be reading the first book in the Kate Burkholder series, Sworn to Silence, for 20 Books of Summer. Actually starting it tonight.

    1. Hope you like it. It's good because it introduces Kate, but I think the following books in the series are better.

  15. 'Raiders of the Lost Heart'. Heheheh. Off to look up Trail of the Lost as it sounds like my kind of thing. :-)

    1. :D It does look really good, doesn't it? Jacka's previous Alex Verus series is wonderful if you haven't read that one yet.

  22. None of these are on my TBR but I see several that should be! I love the look of An Inheritance of Magic and the Kelley Armstrong and Ali Hazelwood.

    1. I'm really excited for all three of those. The Benedict Jacka one is the start of a new fantasy series for him which is exciting because I LOVE his Alex Verus series. :D

  23. Holly is one of my must reads too! I'll admit that I didn't see this trajectory for her outside of the Bill Hodges Trilogy, but I'm really enjoying the places King is taking her.

  25. Of course excited for the Linda Castillo book even though I still have a lot of catching up to do. Such a great series. And, some of these titles are awesome - Raiders of the Lost Heart is one I have to check out for the title alone :)
