With Jennifer’s permission, Coffee Addicted Writer relaunched the hop on February 15, 2013. Each week the hop will start on a Friday and end the following Thursday. There will be a weekly prompt featuring a book related question. The hop’s purpose is to give bloggers a chance to follow other blogs, learn about new books, befriend other bloggers, and receive new followers to your own blog.

This Week’s Question
Are there any new books you’re excited to read in 2023? (Billy @ Coffee Addicted Writer)
Absolutely! It’s time to come out and say that I now have two autobuy authors: Sarah J. Maas (not surprising) and now Olivie Blake. Blake has two novels hitting shelves this year, four when you throw in a couple of anthologies. Here are the three I’m most interested in below; the book covers link to the official synopses.
Other books on my radar include:
- THE BONE SHARD WAR by Andrea Stewart, the conclusion to The Drowning Empire trilogy.
- THE FOXGLOVE KING by Hannah Whitten, which is the next ARC I plan to read.
- THE CLEAVING by Juliet E. McKenna, a feminist retelling of Arthurian legend.
There are definitely more books I’m looking forward to in 2023. But I’ll stop here otherwise there would be no point in making an anticipated reads list for the second quarter of 2023!
I absolutely love Olivie Blake’s writing. The Atlas Six series is definitely one of my favorites and I hope to read a few of her other books this year as well 🙂 I can’t wait to get my hands on The Foxglove King. Hannah is a phenomenal storyteller!
Same, her writing is fantastic! I definitely recommend Alone With You in the Ether if you liked The Atlas Six (I still need to read The Atlas Paradox). I’m about 25% into The Foxglove King now and am enjoying it so far. There’s a lot of names for things in the society to remember, which was a little difficult at first for me, but that’s not unique to just this book…I have no idea where it’s going, which is great.
