Another year has come and gone which means that it’s time to participate in Two Chicks On Books, Fiktshun and Magical Urban Fantasy Reads annual TOP 10 OF 2013 week long meme. Not only do I love lists but these posts are easy to put together and schedule during the holidays so that I can spend time with my family. Enjoy!
 |
10. Night Broken by Patricia Briggs I’m still a couple of installments behind on this series but I’m trying desperately to catch-up before this one comes out in March. |
|
 |
09. Better Homes and Hauntings by Molly Harper I never seem to discover Molly Harpers’ series ’til after she’s a few books in so I’m excited to read her upcoming stand-alone title, especially if it’s releasing in audio too. Amanda Ronconi is such a fab narrator! |
|
 |
08. Magic Breaks by Ilona Andrews After the way MAGIC RISES finished how could this book not be on my most anticipated books on 2014?? Kate and Curran are definitely one of my all-time favourite paranormal couples. |
|
 |
07. Grim Shadows by Jenn Bennett If I hadn’t already read BITTER SPIRITS, it would be here instead of this second installment. BANISHING THE DARK could also easily be on this list as well but I prefer to only feature one author per top 10. |
|
 |
06. Poison Promise by Jennifer Estep The ELEMENTAL ASSASSIN series is on my auto-buy list so as soon as there’s a new novel in the works it goes on my wishlist. Enough said. |
|
 |
05. Cold Hard Secret by Sierra Dean SECRET MCQUEEN is another fav of mine when it comes to Urban Fantasy heroines; every time I finish an installment in this series I immediately start counting down the days ’til the next one releases. |
|
|
04. Menagerie by Rachel Vincent I was super excited when I heard that Rachel Vincent announced that she’d be writing a new Urban Fantasy series in 2014. Her UNBOUND series wrapped-up earlier this year so I was hoping she’d come out with something to fill the void. |
|
 |
03. The King by J.R. Ward It’s been a loooong time since Wrath’s story and I’m definitely excited to revisit the blind king. He’s one of my top 5 fav brothers. |
|
 |
02. Up From The Grave by Jeaniene Frost I was a little sad when Jeaniene Frost announced that this would be her last Cat & Bones book but I’m hoping that this series will go out with a bang! |
|
 |
01. Burned by Karen Marie Moning It feels like I’ve been waiting forever for this one but if it’s anything like all of KMM’s other novels, then it’ll be well worth the wait. BURNED is by far my most anticipated read of 2014! |

Want to read all those except MollyHarpers as she’s new to me
Well, Better Homes and Hauntings would be a great place to start because it’s a stand-alone!
Loved seeing your list and finding new books. I can’t wait to read Cress and Ignite Me.
Thanks for stopping by! The only problem with checking-out other peeps’ lists is that it means even more books are getting added to my already massive TBR pile.
Wonderful list! I have a hard time putting these together since I’m always afraid of leaving someone off them. 2014 looks to be an awesome year for new releases, new series, and series that are coming to an end.
I probably missed a couple without even realizing it and there will always be more titles announced as the year progresses. These are more like my top most anticipated reads of 2014 for right now. LOL
Ahh, nooo, I have not heard of these books! I’m familiar with some of the authors – J.R. Ward, Jennifer Estep, Patricia Briggs, Karen Marie Moning – but I have not read any of their books. If I need adult recs, I shall come here! 😀
Have a fabulous weekend!
Check out my Top Ten post!
I don’t read a lot of YA but I try to throw some into the mix every now and then to switch things up; you should do the same with adult titles. You have no idea of what you’re missing out on!
Very nice! I have most of them on my must read list. Great group you have there.
Thanks!
I’m saying a lot of YES on your list. Burned better give me more Barrons & Mac!
Haha only a lot?? Shouldn’t you be saying yes to ALL the titles on my list? 😉
I had Better Homes and Hauntings by Molly Harper on my 1st list but it got deleted and I forgot about when I made the list again.
Just so long as it’s on your GoodReads shelves that’s all that really matters!
Don’t let me forget about Menagerie, I want to be able to start the series when it comes out. As for the rest…they’re either on my must buy or their series is on my TBR (because I’m not caught up yet…and have I told you that I LOVE the Elemental Assassin series on audio? I’m almost finished with book 1 and have book 2 ready as soon as it finishes!)
Hehe ok I will make sure you don’t forget about Menagerie. Adding it to my to-do list now. And yes, Estep’s EA series totally rocks on audio! I always listen to ’em even after I’ve read the ARCs.
I agree with about half of them 🙂
Well, me thinks that’s a pretty good ratio!
I can’t wait for The King all I have to say is JR Ward better deliver and there better be some sexy time with Wrath and Beth even though I have a feeling the book will be about a lot more than Wrath since that doesn’t look like him on the cover.
I got a lot from the list, but my most anticipated tittle for 2014 is Written in My Own Heart’s Blood (Outlander series) Any other year it would have been Burned 🙂
Very nice list! I agree with 90% of them. The others are just because I don’t read that series…yet 😉
