My most anticipated books publishing during the second half of 2020.

Sunday, July 12, 2020


We’re half-way through 2020 and it’s been a crazy year so far. My family’s life has changed dramatically as I several high risk people that I am around and need to protect. Thank goodness for books and audiobooks to help keep me sane.

There are many books that will be published during this second half of 2020, but I thought I’d focus on six in particular that I am anticipating. Hank Phillippi Ryan is the author that is new to me that I’m most anticipating. The remaining five authors are some of my favourites - you know, the kind where it doesn’t matter what the book is about you still want to read it! Troubles in Paradise by Elin Hilderbrand and is the third book in a trilogy. I can’t wait to see how this story ends. Christina Lauren and Lindsey Kelk always keep me laughing. Sarah Morgan’s books are written in a style that is friendly and heart-warming - like hugging someone you love. Fredrik Backman’s books are entertaining yet emotional, providing deep insight into his characters.

What books are you anticipating that will be published during the second half of 2020?

    I'm really looking forward to The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by VE Schwab. V.E Schwab is one of my favourite authors and I love her books.
    I have also been wanting to find some new Christmassy books too as I love Christmas and want to find more books inspired or set in Christmas time so a few of these books you've suggested are ones I'll be checking out.

      I love Christmas books too! I'll be reading several this year (and reviewing) but if you'd like to see the many that I read last year check out my instagram (https://www.instagram.com/thathappyreader/) and click on the Holidays '19 highlights.

    Sounds like some great choices. I've yet to buy the Hunger Games prequel, but that's on my list for the next couple of months.

    The First To Lie looks like something I'd enjoy! With lockdown I didn't realise how fast this year was flying and forgot one I'd been looking forward to by Lucinda Berry is coming out next month x

      I'm about 50% through The First To Lie and it's absolutely amazing! I'm not familiar with Lucinda Berry but I will look out for her books. Is there one you'd recommend?

    I'm really looking forward to Dear Justyce by Nic Stone and The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.E. Schwab. I've not read anything by Christina Lauren before but I love that festive feeling so might need to add that one to my wishlist...

    Great post! :) Thank you for sharing this with us. I also love Sarah's style of writing. I gives me so much comfort when I read a book written by her, lol.

    I haven't heard of any of these books, but they definitely look fun (very interested in First to Lie). I hope you enjoy them all.
