Spring 2018

2018 is almost here & we are SO excited because what a year we have ahead.

Here are some of our spring 2018 titles!

JANUARY

Everless – Sara Holland (4th Jan 2018)

Everless has got everything you’d want in a fantasy novel: danger, love, magic, and a totally unique world.

In the world of Everless, alchemists have discovered a way to extract hours, days and years from blood and bind them to iron coins – time is now currency, with the rich living for centuries and the poor bleeding themselves dry.

Caraval author Stephanie Garber has called it ‘an intoxicating blend of blood, secrets, and haunting mythology’ and we couldn’t agree more.

Can you tell we’re pretty excited* about this book? Everless is out now.

*Really, really excited

 

Lucky Girl – Amanda Maciel (4th Jan 2018)

This one is a late drop-in to our list for January, and not one to be missed. Lucky Girl is an unflinching exploration of beauty, self-worth, reputation and sexual assault, from the author of the acclaimed Tease. It is an eBook exclusive which is out now, and you can nab yourself a copy for just £1.99.

 

 

 

 

 

Summoner: The Battlemage – Taran Matharu (11th Jan 2018)

This is THE epic conclusion to the fantasy trilogy described as ‘Harry Potter meets Lord of the Rings meets Pokemon’ – and what a book it is.

After the thrilling cliffhanger at the end of book two, we rejoin Fletcher and his friends in the ether, where they must undertake a mortally dangerous quest all the while avoiding capture by enemies and facing foes more terrifying than anything they have yet encountered.

Battles, drama and demons, this has everything a brilliant fantasy novel has! There’s a reason it’s a NYT bestselling series.

 

 

Movie Night – Lucy Courtenay (11th Jan 2018)

If you love rom-coms you will LOVE this sassy addition to our BKMRK list. This book is brilliant, funny, romantic and perfect for any movie buffs. It’s got everything we want in a book that we can just settle into like a blanket. And it’s perfect for fans of Holly Bourne.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

FEBRUARY

The Taste of Blue Light PB – Lydia Ruffles (8th Feb 2018)

Louise O’Neill said this was The Bell Jar for this generation. And my god, was she right. You’ve no doubt heard a lot about this book (from us posting some very beautiful quote cards during the Hardback campaign) but every good thing you’ve heard is true. This is a story of a girl’s desperation to uncover the truth of what really happened to her after that summer party, of why she cannot remember, of why she dreams in red. It’s a debut. And it’s stunning.

 

 

 

 

Dark Matter: Deception – Teri Terry (8th Feb 2018)

You know, when you read something from Teri Terry, that it’s going to be good. Book one: Contagion blew our minds. And now the second book in the series is here to do it all over again. If you like dystopian novels with grit and great characters than you need to catch this series.

  

 

 

 

 

Rock War: Crash Landing PB – Robert Muchamore (8th Feb 2018)

This author needs NO introduction: from the international bestselling author of the Cherub series, Crash Landing (8th Feb 2018) is Robert’s explosive final Rock War book.

Anassa – Josh Martin (8th Feb 2018)

Compelling and absorbing fantasy at its very best. This is a VERY special series.

Ariadnis was the first in the series. And we loved this book because…

A) It features real, grounded characters that are relatable

B) It’s epic and awesome and completely gripping

Anassa is the second in the series and set to be just as igniting! It begs the question, should you fight or should you try and reunite?

 

 

 

Miss Match: The Truth About Destiny – Crystal Cestari (8th Feb 2018)

You are meant to be with this book. No, seriously. The follow-up to the AMAZING Miss Match is incredible and if you haven’t read the first book then we urge you to because it’s just the perfect thing to read when you’re tired of all things too serious and too negative. It’s uplifting and cheeky and brilliant and really funny and Amber is a character you really want to be your friend.

Amber Sand has a gift. Five seconds of eye contact, and she can see your soul mate.
