¡Hola a todos y todas!
En enero os trajimos una entrada como esta en la que os hablábamos que se publicarían durante la primera mitad del año que más ganas teníamos de leer. Hoy os traigo la misma entrada pero para contaros qué novelas espero con ansia en el período de tiempo que va de junio a diciembre. No sabemos si nos dará tiempo a leer todas estas novedades, pero desde luego ganas no nos faltan. ¡Empezamos!
Irene:
Babel, or The Necessity of Violence de R.F. Kuang
23 de agosto - Harper Voyager
Babel is the world's center of translation and, more importantly, of silver-working: the art of manifesting the meaning lost in translation through enchanted silver bars, to magical effect. Silver-working has made the British Empire unparalleled in power, and Babel's research in foreign languages serves the Empire's quest to colonize everything it encounters. Oxford, the city of dreaming spires, is a fairytale for Robin; a utopia dedicated to the pursuit of knowledge. But knowledge serves power, and for Robin, a Chinese boy raised in Britain, serving Babel inevitably means betraying his motherland.
I'm the Girl de Courtney Summers
13 de septiembre - Wednesday Books
When sixteen-year-old Georgia Avis discovers the dead body of thirteen-year-old Ashley James, she teams up with Ashley's older sister, Nora, to find and bring the killer to justice before he strikes again. But their investigation throws Georgia into a world of unimaginable privilege and wealth, without conscience or consequence, and as Ashley’s killer closes in, Georgia will discover when money, power and beauty rule, it might not be a matter of who is guilty—but who is guiltiest.
If You Could See Me Now de Ann Liang
11 de octubre - Inkyard Press
Alice Sun has always felt invisible at her elite Beijing international boarding school, where she’s the only scholarship student among China’s most rich and influential teens. But then she starts uncontrollably turning invisible—actually invisible. When her parents drop the news that they can no longer afford her tuition, even with the scholarship, Alice hatches a plan to monetize her strange new power—she’ll discover the scandalous secrets her classmates want to know, for a price.
The Ones We Burn de Rebecca Mix
1 de noviembre - Margaret K. McElderry Books
Ranka is tired of death. All she wants now is to be left alone, living out her days in Witchik’s wild north with the coven that raised her, attempting to forget the horrors of her past. But when she is named Bloodwinn, the next treaty bride to the human kingdom of Isodal, her coven sends her south with a single directive: kill him. Easy enough, for a blood-witch whose magic compels her to kill. Except the prince is gentle, kind, and terrified of her. He doesn’t want to marry Ranka; he doesn’t want to be king at all. And it’s his sister—the wickedly smart, infuriatingly beautiful Princess Aramis—who seems to be real threat.
Never Ever Getting Back Together de Sophie Gonzales
6 de diciembre - Wednesday Books
Bisexual eighteen-year-old Maya dumped her cheating ex, Jordy, two years ago. But when Jordy's sister marries the crowned prince of a small European country, reality show producers approach her to appear on a Bachelor meets second-chance-romance show, along with all his other exes. Maya agrees, but she’s nursing a secret agenda: use the show to make sure the world knows what kind of person Jordy is. When her manufactured "enemy" on the show, Skye finds out about Maya's plan, the two make a pact; they’ll help each other make it to the finale by any means necessary, and whoever wins will expose Jordy on national television.
