ReplyDeleteSO many great debuts coming up in 2014! I can't even begin to make a list!
ReplyDeleteI feel like I have about a million 2013 books I'm still dying to read, but still stare at the pretty 2014 ones in a greedy way. I love all of your picks—they're all on my TBR list, too. Also ISLA AND THE HAPPILY EVER AFTER, which I've been antsy to read for pretty much forever. :)
