The Top 15 Books I Want That Are Releasing in 2015

These are books releasing in 2015 that I am the most excited for, and I will be sure to get my hands on them this year.  There is no particular order to this list.

My Heart and Other Black Holes by Jasmine Warga - I preordered this book at the end of June 2014, so I think I can say that I am very excited to read it.  The idea of a girl falling for a boy who she has made a suicide pact with sounds so interesting, with so much potential to be heartbreaking.  So yeah, I can't wait until my copy of this finally arrives.

The Last Time We Say Goodbye by Cynthia Hand - So, first of all, Cynthia Hand's paranormal Unearthly series was awesome, but contemporary is definitely my favorite genre.  Of course, because of this, I am excited to see how awesome her contemporary will be, since I already love her paranormal.

I'll Meet You There by Heather Demetrios - In 2014, as soon as I got my copy of Something Real, I devoured it and loved every page.  So, naturally, I'm excited to read Heather Demetrios' next contemporary novel.  The premise and story of this one sounds awesome by the description, and I do love this cover.

The Distance Between Lost and Found by Kathryn Holmes - First off, this cover is gorgeous.  Second of all, this story sounds like the perfect combination of a survival story and a powerful story about the characters.  So, overall, I can't wait to read this. 

Liars, Inc. by Paula Stokes - I loved The Art of Lainey, and even though this looks like a completely different type of book, it's by Paula Stokes, so I'm excited to read it.  Plus, I like darker books like this too.

Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli - When I first read the pitch for this, I knew it sounded completely amazing.  This is an LGBT book that sounds like it will be lighter and comedic.  Also, it has a You've Got Mail-esque plotline.

Forged by Erin Bowman - So in this book, I will get to see how the Taken series ends.  There is a lot of crazy stuff going on in this world, and I have no idea how Erin Bowman is going to wrap all of it up.  But this book will answer that for me.  Plus, I will finally get to see Gray end up with Bree (hopefully).

The Fill-In Boyfriend by Kasie West - This is by Kasie West, so of course it makes it on this list.  It doesn't even have a cover yet, but I know I will love it.  This sounds like one of those fake dating stories that don't end up being so fake.

Underneath Everything by Marcy Beller Paul - Based on the short synopsis, this sounds kind of like Dangerous Girls, but without the murder.  The toxic friendship sounds interesting, and I cannot wait to read this.

The Creeping by Alexandra Sirowy - This story sounds like it will be creepy and scary.  The idea of the main character thinking about what happened to her friend once a body shows up is interesting.  This sounds like she will have to contend with many things from her past.

Damage Done by Amanda Panitch - This book sounds so interesting.  The girl's brother sounds pretty scary, and I wonder what her dark secret is.

Last Year's Mistake by Gina Ciocca - This sounds like a great romance story.  I hope that the main character will end up falling for the guy described in the blurb.

Not After Everything by Michelle Levy - I'm excited for this book.  It's pitched as a darker Eleanor & Park, which was a book that I loved, and I read that it's told from a male POV.

More Happy Than Not by Adam Silvera - This sounds like a good LGBT story.  The whole idea of being able to erase memories is really interesting too.

The Start of Me and You by Emery Lord -I loved Open Road Summer when I read it twice last year, so I look forward to reading Emery Lord's second book.  Also, the cover is absolutely gorgeous.
