Tripping Over September

September is a pretty big month in my neck of the woods. Namely, because it is the month of my birth–HUZZAH! But it’s also the beginning of some hardcore publishing before the year is out, which means LOTS of great books. These are just  a few of the great titles coming out this September that I’m the most excited about. Covers are links to Goodreads, my lovelies!

THE DREAM THIEVES: THE RAVEN CYCLE #2 by Maggie Stiefvater

Little bit cheating because I was lucky enough to get an ARC of this at BEA this year and I’ve read it already. IT WAS AWESOME. This series keeps getting better. Also, RONAN LYNCH IS MY LOVE.

VICIOUS by V.E. Schwab

I’ve only read one book by Victoria Schwab—THE NEAR WITCH–but it was dark and lovely, and I have THE ARCHIVED waiting for me, too. This one, though, is her first foray into adult-ness, and she’s doing it with SUPERHEROES. Honestly.

THE BURNING SKY: THE ELEMENTAL TRILOGY #1 by Sherry Thomas

Oooh, a new fantasy series? Don’t mind if I do. Elemental mages, prophecies, Princes and romance, and a bad guy known as the Bane–it all sounds beyond excellent.

ANTIGODDESS: GODDESS WAR #1 by Kendare Blake

Don’t tease me with mythology. Don’t even. This one sounds even more badass than usual because we’re not dealing with gods and goddesses as we know them, golden and immortal. These gods and goddesses are dying–I KNOW, RIGHT?!–and they seek out the prophetess, Cassandra, now a young girl, to help them. I’m SO EXCITED for this one.

MAGIC MARKS THE SPOT: THE VERY NEARLY HONORABLE LEAGUE OF PIRATES #1 by Caroline Carlson

I wish I encountered more books about pirates, friends. This one, about a young girl who wants to join a league of pirates but must make them see past the fact that she’s a girl, sounds fun and funny and awesome.

FANGIRL by Rainbow Rowell

I flat-out LOVED ELEANOR & PARK, friends, so to say that I’m excited about this book about twin sisters who are going away to college, sounds great. I’m really intrigued by the fanfic aspect, too. I’ve heard that some people didn’t love this one as much as E&P, but I’m still looking forward to it.

THE OUTSIDE: THE HALLOWED ONES #2 by Laura Bickle 

Another cheat, because I just finished reading this one. But THE HALLOWED ONES was such a great vampire book, and I couldn’t wait to see how things turned out for Katie and Alex after they were put under the Bann and kicked out of Katie’s Amish community. Spoiler: It was very good.

What books are you guys looking forward to this month?
