Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.
It’s time to share our most anticipated releases for the second half of 2021. Where did the first half go?
The Book of Form and Emptiness by Ruth Ozeki
I loved A Tale for the Time Being, so I pre-ordered this the moment it was announced.
As Good as Dead by Holly Jackson
Sniff, sniff, I’m a bit sad this will be the last outing for Pip but I suppose there’s only so many crime cases a teenage sleuth can get involved in…
A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers
New novella series from Becky, can’t wait!
A Master of Djinn by P. Djèlí Clark
Orbit kindly sent me a review copy of this and it’s next up in my queue. I am so ready for a full length Fatma el-Sha’arawi story. I think it’s out already in the US.
The Untold Story by Genevieve Cogman
I always look forward to my annual outing to The Invisible Library series.
The Bronzed Beasts by Roshani Chokshi
The Silvered Serpents left me hanging, I must know what happens in this final instalment.
The Last Graduate by Naomi Novik
Is the title a spoiler? Is the Scholomance going to be no more? I guess I’ll find out.
Afterlove by Tanya Byrne
I’m excited for a new book from Tanya and it sounds great; teenage reapers and a love that survives death.
A Marvellous Light by Freya Marske
Thanks Tor for the review copy, this one sounds *cough* marvellous! The following tags apply: “fantasy of very bad manners”, “gratuitous library porn” and “homicidal hedge maze”.
The Women of Troy by Pat Barker
I’m not sure if I’ve reached my limit of female-focused Greek myth retellings yet, but I loved Pat Barker’s The Silence of the Girls and I’m interested to see how this compares to Natalie Hayne’s version of events.

![[gifted] Thanks @gambit589 @orbitbooks_uk for this ARC of Sorcery and Small Magics by Maiga Doocy.
The blurb: Desperate to undo the curse binding them together, an impulsive sorcerer and his curmudgeonly rival venture deep into a magical forest in search of a counterspell - only to discover that magic might not be the only thing pulling them together.

Great list! A Psalm for the Wild-Built made my list this week, too, and I’m really looking forward to A Master of Djinn. One of these days I need to get to the Good Girl’s Guide to Murder books and I love the sound of A Marvellous Light!
I’m so curious about A Psalm for the Wild-Built.

Afterlove looks amazing! Great list 🙂
I want to read The Women of Troy, too.
Here is our Top Ten Tuesday.
I had no idea As Good As Dead was coming out! That’s amazing!
Genesis @ Whispering Chapters
I just got Master of Djinn from the library and I’m so excited! I’ve seen such great things about it!
I’m sad the Pip books are only a trilogy as well. I definitely would have kept reading the series beyond just three books. Wonder what Holly Jackson will do next??
Happy TTT!

Great list! Here is my post-https://paigesofbook.blogspot.com/2021/06/top-ten-tuesday-anticipated-releases.html.
I’ve got A Deadly Education on my TBR pile. I think the second installment coming out may move it up a bit!
Ooh yes, A Marvelous Light sounds amazing!

I hadn’t heard about The Book of Form and Emptiness or The Women of Troy. Happily, I was able to request both of these.
A Marvellous Light sounds like such a fun read! Hope you’ll enjoy all of these!
Adding Ruth Ozeki’s upcoming book to my list. I love A Tale for the Time Being, too. Thanks for the heads up.
I’ve been meaning to read Ruth Ozeki, curious about her new book! The Women of Troy is also one I’m excited to check out. 🙂
Marvelous Light sounds great!
Here’s my post: https://readbakecreate.com/?p=441
I’ve got an ARC of A Marvellous Light of my ‘soon’ TBR too. Hope you enjoy it!
As Good As Dead, A Marvellous Light and The Bronzed Beasts were all on my list this week too!
My TTT: https://jjbookblog.wordpress.com/2021/06/29/top-ten-tuesday-322/
I’ve been hearing so many good things about The Master of Djinn, I’ll have to add it to my TBR. I hope you enjoy all these!
I really enjoyed A Psalm for the Wild-Built so I hope you do too! I also want to read more P. Djèlí Clark too, I loved what I have read so far! A Marvelous Light sounds really good, I shall add that one to my list too! Hope these all end up being wins for you!
I need to catch up on The Invisible Library series. 🙂
I’ve intended to read Holly’s books for a while now; and I own book one! Guess if I finally do read them (and enjoy!), I can now binge read the series. 🙂 Thanks so much for the visit to Finding Wonderland last week.
