Här kommer de tre böcker jag mest ser fram emot under januari månad. Jag är verkligen jättetaggad på att läsa alla dessa tre böcker, så 2019 startar med andra ord väldigt starkt.
Slayer av Kiersten White
Into every generation a Slayer is born…
Nina
and her twin sister, Artemis, are far from normal. It’s hard to be when
you grow up at the Watcher’s Academy, which is a bit different from
your average boarding school. Here teens are trained as guides for
Slayers—girls gifted with supernatural strength to fight the forces of
darkness. But while Nina’s mother is a prominent member of the Watcher’s
Council, Nina has never embraced the violent Watcher lifestyle. Instead
she follows her instincts to heal, carving out a place for herself as
the school medic.
Until the day Nina’s life changes forever.
Thanks
to Buffy, the famous (and infamous) Slayer that Nina’s father died
protecting, Nina is not only the newest Chosen One—she’s the last
Slayer, ever. Period.
As Nina hones her skills with her
Watcher-in-training, Leo, there’s plenty to keep her occupied: a monster
fighting ring, a demon who eats happiness, a shadowy figure that keeps
popping up in Nina’s dreams…
But it’s not until bodies start turning up that Nina’s new powers will truly be tested—because someone she loves might be next.
One thing is clear: Being Chosen is easy. Making choices is hard.

Famous in a small town av Emma Mills
For Sophie, small-town
life has never felt small. She has the Yum Yum Shoppe, with its famous
fourteen flavors of ice cream; her beloved marching band, the pride and
joy of Acadia High (even if the football team disagrees); and her four
best friends, loving and infuriating, wonderfully weird and all she
could ever ask for.
Then August moves in next door. A quiet guy
with a magnetic smile, August seems determined to keep everyone at arm's
length. Sophie in particular.
Country stars, revenge plots, and
a few fake kisses (along with some excellent real ones) await Sophie in
this hilarious, heartfelt story.

King of scars av Leigh Bardugo
Nikolai Lantsov has always
had a gift for the impossible. No one knows what he endured in his
country’s bloody civil war—and he intends to keep it that way. Now, as
enemies gather at his weakened borders, the young king must find a way
to refill Ravka’s coffers, forge new alliances, and stop a rising threat
to the once-great Grisha Army.
Yet with every day a dark magic
within him grows stronger, threatening to destroy all he has built. With
the help of a young monk and a legendary Grisha Squaller, Nikolai will
journey to the places in Ravka where the deepest magic survives to
vanquish the terrible legacy inside him. He will risk everything to save
his country and himself. But some secrets aren’t meant to stay
buried—and some wounds aren’t meant to heal.
