Even though I suck at finishing series (as you know) I still have voluminous dreams of reading sequels.

Because what is life without impossible dreams?

Oh, ho! But WAIT. There are some sequels that I will read. There are some sequels I will read because my life cannot continue if I ignore them. THERE ARE SOME SEQUELS I AM LITERALLY SCREAMING ABOUT AND CANNOT SURVIVE IF I DO NOT READ THEM.

I’ll tell you about those. (Although they’re not all strictly “sequels”, but rules are made to be twisted. I do what I want. I am partly Loki.)

This week’s prompt is: Top 10 Sequels I Can’t Wait To Get

1. Ensnared (book 3) by A.G. Howard

Because, obviously.

This is the 3rd and final book in the Splintered trilogy. And yes, I have been suffering while I wait for this book, thank you for asking about my wellbeing.

But I’m also terrified of this book because look at that cover. Just LOOK. It’s Jeb. If it’s Jeb there is an awful and highly possible likelihood of him winning Alyssa. And I can be okay with that as long as Morpheus wins The Entire World. I don’t really understand why they don’t just lock Jeb in another Jabberlock box and let Morpehus and Alyssa marry for ever and have little blue haired children.

2. Corruption (book 2) by Jessica Shirvington

I have not shipped a ship like I ship Maggie and Quentin before. Sure there’s Morpheus and Alyssa like I just ranted on above. But this is different. THIS IS MAGGIE AND QUENTIN. They hate and love each other. They complete each other. And Maggie totally lied, manipulated, and was horribly mean to Quentin…and accidentally fell in love with him.

Quentin and Maggie-if-she-were-a-goat

Awkward.

But adorable.

Also this book contains Gus, who hates Maggie a lot too, which makes for the best banter in the history of the world. (Actually, come to think of it, everyone hates Maggie. Huh. Interesting.)

3. Untitled (Starbound book 3) by Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner

I need it like a whale needs a delicious conglomeration of krill. I need it like Kirk needs his BFF Spock. I need it like I need cake. That really sealed the deal, didn’t it?

4. The Death Cure (book 3) by James Dashner

Now I just want to cry and deny the truth that I know.

5. Half Wild (book 2) by Sally Green

But Half Wild. Let me hug you, poor, poor little book. I’m sure it’ll be full of dangerous and awful things and if Nathan isn’t insane already (I think he is) then he’ll lose his crackers in this one for sure. And besides, half wild?

Nathan is the ultimate villain. I’m positive this is a villain origins series and it will end with Nathan smiting the world in revenge. And I’ll just let the poor baby do it with no questions.

6. The Ask and the Answer (book 2) by Patrick Ness

I really love Patrick Ness’ books. I’ve read A Monster Calls and More Than This and The Knife of Never Letting Go, so obviously I need to continue the Chaos Walking series, right?

I have no idea what this book is about. I suppose I could read the blurb like mere mortals do, but pfft. I’d rather be surprised. I hope it has answers because I have a heck of a lot of questions.

7. Salt and Stone (book 2) by Victoria Scott

9. Untitled (book 4) by Sarah J Maas

I don’t know the blurb.

10. Blue Lily Lily Blue by Maggie Stiefvater

This is basically how I feel about Blue and Gansey.

Cait is busy flailing. She’s also busy tripping over all the books on her floor because she, logically, decided to empty her bookshelf and dust it. Pictures of the chaos will come. She’s also reading WINTERSPELL which is a terrifically beautiful but boring book, and she’s still listening to WHITE CAT which she pitched to her sister as “Supernatural meets the Mafia” and coincidentally convinced her sister to read it. Cait is fabulous.
