#Project14Lists Day 11: 2019 ARCs on my Wishlist!

Hi hello and welcome to day 11 of #Project14Lists! Today, I am going to be talking about some of the 2019 ARCs that are on my wishlist! Just a disclaimer, I don't know if all of these books are going to have ARCs (which, if you don't know what an ARC is it's an Advance Reader Copy meaning it's an unedited early copy of a book that is distributed to various people for early reviewing purposes) but I'm really hoping that they do because I'm so excited to read them. So, don't hold me to anything and get your hopes up that there will be an ARC of something when there may or may not be. This is simply my wishlist for 2019 ARCs! Let's get started!
_________________________________________________________________________________

1. Darkdawn by Jay Kristoff- While I know that the chances of there being Darkdawn ARCs, let alone me getting one, are basically zero, a girl can still hope, right? In any case, I'll definitely be ordering every single special edition of this book that is released and will go broke doing it.

2. DEV1AT3 by Jay Kristoff- My precious Lemon Fresh is taking center stage in the sequel to LIFEL1K3 so yes, I am hoping against hope I can get an ARC to match my wonderful signed ARC of LIFEL1K3 <3

3. Blood Heir by Amelie Wen Zhao- I don't know what it is about Blood Heir that has captured my attention so hard but this is one that I'm not only excited to read next year, but am actually really wanting to get my hands on an ARC so I can read it early.

4. Spin the Dawn by Elizabeth Lim- This is a book that has taken me by surprise. It was something that I noticed a while back and have been interested in but now I'm obsessed and I'm really hoping that there are ARCs because I really, really, really need one!

5. Recursion by Blake Crouch- I read Dark Matter by Blake Crouch in 2016 and absolutely loved it so as soon as I found out that he was releasing another book that had more science-y stuff like Dark Matter had, I knew I had to get an ARC if there are any!
6. Aurora Rising by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff- Okay, is this really surprising though? I'm trash for anything Jay Kristoff and this author duo is one of my absolute favorites so yeah, it's safe to say that I'm dying to get an ARC of this.

7. The Ruin of Kings by Jenn Lyons- I actually was lucky enough to get on a blog tour for this book so I have an ARC already, but it was definitely on my list before I got it in the mail. I can't even begin to describe how excited I am for this and I keep reading the synopsis over and over again because holy crap it is SO COOL.
8. The Beautiful by Renee Ahdieh- It's a book about vampires. I don't need to know anything else beyond that (although the synopsis sounds really cool and the poke at Twilight made me laugh) and I'm really hoping that there are ARCs of this so that I can try and get one!

_________________________________________________________________________________

And that's it for day eleven of #Project14Lists! I know there are a few books on here that I've already talked about but I also tried to include some books that I haven't talked about but that I'm really wanting to get ARCs of. As always, I'm looking for more book recommendations so I'd love to hear some of the books that you're hoping to get ARCs of in 2019. Let me know in the comments! Thanks for stopping by and I'll see you tomorrow for another day of #Project14Lists!

#Project14Lists Day 6: 2019 Book Covers I Love!

#project14lists 10:36:00 AM

Hi hello and welcome to day six of #Project14Lists! Today, I'm going to be talking about some of my favorite book covers that have been revealed for 2019 releases! There are already so many incredible books that are coming out next year with some covers that I just cannot get over and I am so excited to share these. As with pretty much all of my lists, these are in no particular order or anything like that. I will warn you that there are 32 covers so prepare for a lot of images. Let's get started!
_________________________________________________________________________________

1. The Wicked King by Holly Black- I feel like I haven't shut up about this book (at least mentally) but I mean, it's incredible. And this cover is so significant once you've read the book and just all of my yes and my love goes to this cover. Especially the B&N exclusive edition!
2. Wicked Saints by Emily A. Duncan- One of my favorite books of 2018 (and most anticipated releases for 2019 because I need this finished copy in all its glory) and this cover is just SO PRETTY on the manuscript, ARC, and FC. I mean, look at that turquoise foil. Hashtag cover goals.

3. Aurora Rising by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff- I'm currently reading Illuminae and absolutely loving it so another book from this author duo is something I definitely need in my life. Plus, I love this cover so much that I did some artwork inspired by it!

4. DEV1AT3 by Jay Kristoff- Yes, another Jay Kristoff book. I've talked about LIFEL1K3 before and how important it is to me, so obviously I'm going to include this book on here. This cover is also incredible and makes me so excited for more of my precious Lemon Fresh!

5. Darkdawn by Jay Kristoff- Okay, last Jay Kristoff book but seriously LOOK AT THIS COVER. I loved it so much (have I already said this?) that I did a cosplay based on it!

6. Blood Heir by Amelie Wen Zhao- I don't know what it is about this cover but it's just...intense. I'm so excited for this book to come out and I cannot wait to have this cover on my shelf!

7. Sky Without Stars by Jessica Brody and Joanne Rendell

8. Never-Contented Things by Sarah Porter- Whatever this is about, I already know I'm going to love it just based off of the cover. I know, it's superficial and don't judge a book by its cover and all that, but LOOK AT HOW CREEPY AND BEAUTIFUL IT IS.

9. Ship of Smoke and Steel by Django Wexler

10. Dreaming Darkly by Caitlin Kittredge

11. Once and Future by Amy Rose Capetta and Cori McCarthy- While scrolling through and looking at all of these beautiful covers, I have just noticed that those are hands holding the sword. Not sure what else I thought they were, but they are hands. Anyway, this cover is just so eye-catching and beautiful and it makes me so interested to see what's inside!

12. Four Dead Queens by Astrid Scholte- The hype around this book is real and I really think that the cover lends a lot to that hype. I mean, look at that beautiful blue and the bright colors of the four crowns! It's absolutely stunning and I can't wait to finally read this.

13. Immunity by Erin Bowman

14. Circle of Shadows by Evelyn Skye

15. The Devouring Gray by Christine Lynn Herman- I NEED THIS BOOK ALREADY PLEASE.

16. The Fever King by Victoria Lee

17. We Rule the Night by Claire Eliza Bartlett

18. Crown of Feathers by Nicki Pau Preto

Can we just talk about both of these books at the same time?! I am living for these bright and fiery phoenix looking covers in the midst of my obsession with dark and creepy looking covers. I'm so excited for these!

19. Spin the Dawn by Elizabeth Lim

20. The Storm Crow by Kalyn Josephson

21. Honor Bound by Rachel Caine and Ann Aguirre- This is a Rachel Caine book. Yes, it's going on my TBR and favorite covers list. Not only is the cover gorgeous but that tagline has me shook.

22. Song of the Dead by Sarah Glenn Marsh- It's no secret that I loved Reign of the Fallen when I read it earlier this year and I absolutely ADORE the pastel pink of that book. So when I saw the pastel blue of the sequel, I just cried. I wish I was joking, but I actually did.

23. Nexus by Sasha Alsberg and Lindsay Cummings- Okay so I know I had not so good feelings about Zenith but I am just a sucker for these cover changes. I love the bright and space-y feeling that this cover and the redone Zenith cover gives so yes, I love this cover and I'm slightly interested in the book itself.

24. The Waking Forest by Alyssa Wees

25. These Witches Don't Burn by Isabel Sterling- Witches, purple, beautiful artwork that reminds me of tarot cards? Yeah, give me this book please. My shelf would be super happy to have this.

26. Slayer by Kiersten White- The cover for Slayer has slayed my soul. Anything Buffy related is an instant read for me. Plus, Kiersten White is incredible and I know she'll do such a wonderful job with this story and the Buffy-verse!

27. A Dress for the Wicked by Autumn Krause

28. Dark Shores by Danielle L. Jensen

29. House of Salt and Sorrows by Erin A. Craig

30. The Merciful Crow by Margaret Owen- Another case of whatever this book is about I am already sold and know I will love it based off of the cover. I mean, do you see how creepy and beautiful it is? Yes. Please.

31. Again, But Better by Christine Riccio

32. Somewhere Only We Know by Maurene Goo- It's bright, it's adorable, and it has something to do with kpop. I'm sold, please give me this book right now.

_________________________________________________________________________________

And that's it for day six of #Project14Lists! I know I started off talking about the book covers and didn't really talk about all of them but there were 32 of them and that's a lot of covers to talk about! But I really enjoyed putting this together because it made me realize what my aesthetic is when it comes to book covers. It seems mostly dark and gritty books are what captures my attention the most? And then we have the last two which are completely different and show my secret rainbow pastel loving side. Or something. But this was so much fun to see all put together! What are some covers that you're excited for in 2019? Let me know in the comments so that I can find some new books or so that we can talk about how much we love the same covers! Thanks for stopping by and I'll see you tomorrow for another day of #Project14Lists!
