Doin' the Hop!

5:21 AM

I really missed doing the Hop last week, so I wanted to make sure to participate this week. If you've never done the Hop, click on over to Crazy For Books and sign up. It's a lot of fun!

This week's question is: What book are you most looking forward to seeing published in 2011? Why are you anticipating that book?

- There are sooo many good ones coming out this year, it's really hard to pick, so I'll just name a few - Desires of the Dead by Kimberly Derting (because I loved The Bodyfinder and can't wait to see what happens next), City of Fallen Angels by Cassandra Clare (because I adore this series), three new books in the Virgin River series by Robyn Carr, Plague by Michael Grant (again, I just love the series) and Possession by Elana Johnson (I met her last year and am excited about the premise of her debut novel).
