Out of curiosity I was looking at YA books that shared The Forgotten's release date, and I realised that some amazing novels from my to-read list come out on the same day. So I thought I'd compile them here in case anyone is looking for July releases.
July 30th (TF's paperback release date)
The Twixt: Indelible | Dawn Metcalf
from Harlequin Teen
Some things are permanent.
Indelible.
And they cannot be changed back.
Joy Malone learns this the night she sees a stranger with all-black eyes across a crowded room—right before the mystery boy tries to cut out her eye. Instead, the wound accidentally marks her as property of Indelible Ink, and this dangerous mistake thrusts Joy into an incomprehensible world—a world of monsters at the window, glowing girls on the doorstep, and a life that will never be the same.
Now, Joy must pretend to be Ink’s chosen one—his helper, his love, his something for the foreseeable future...and failure to be convincing means a painful death for them both. Swept into a world of monsters, illusion, immortal honor and revenge, Joy discovers that sometimes, there are no mistakes.
Somewhere between reality and myth lies…
THE TWIXT
Mythos Academy: Midnight Frost | Jennifer Estep
from K-Teen
Here we go again …
Just when it seems life at Mythos Academy can’t get any more dangerous, the Reapers of Chaos manage to prove me wrong. It was just a typical night at the Library of Antiquities — until a Reaper tried to poison me. The good news is I’m still alive and kicking. The bad news is the Reaper poisoned someone else instead.
As Nike’s Champion, everyone expects me to lead the charge against the Reapers, even though I’m still hurting over what happened with Spartan warrior Logan Quinn. I’ve got to get my hands on the antidote fast — otherwise, an innocent person will die. But the only known cure is hidden in some creepy ruins — and the Reapers are sure to be waiting for me there …
Earth Bound | Aprilynne Pike
from Razorbill
Love, fate, and power collide in this new series by #1 New York Timesbestselling author Aprilynne Pike!
Tavia Michaels is the sole survivor of the plane crash that killed her parents. When she starts to see strange visions of a boy she’s never spoken with in real life, she begins to suspect that there’s much about her past that she isn’t being told. Tavia will soon discover that she’s an Earthbound—someone with the ability to create matter out of nothing—and that she alone holds the key to stopping the Reduciata, an evil society that manipulates global events for its own shadowy purposes. Tavia will ultimately have to make a choice: to come into her powers and save the world from the evil Reduciata or to choose free will and a love of her own.
The Lux Guardians: The Forgotten | Saruuh Kelsey
Good and goodness will prevail.
Honour and Horatia Frie are twins living in a world of wreck
and ruin.
Branwell and Bennet Ravel are twins living in a world of
danger and secrecy.
Each tasked with an impossible quest, and faced with
unimaginable struggles, they must work together to halt the utter devastation
intended for both of their worlds
The Forgotten, book
one in The Lux Guardians series, is a Young Adult Dystopian novel set both in a
future wreck of London and London in the Victorian era.
Looking forward to all three of these, and my own book obviously! July is looking to be a good month.
