Fresh Batch (May 26th – June 1st)

Posted by

Exclusively titled for Xpresso Reads, Fresh Batch features the hottest releases of this upcoming week.

Flavor of the week:

Spirit
Brigid Kemmerer
Series: Elemental #3
Publication date: May 28th 2013
by K Teen

With power comes enemies. Lots of them.

Hunter Garrity just wants to be left alone. He’s learned the hard way that his unusual abilities come at a price. And he can’t seem to afford any allies.

He’s up to his neck in hostiles. His grandfather, spoiling for a fight. The Merrick brothers, who think he ratted them out. Calla, the scheming psycho who wants to use him as bait.

Then there’s Kate Sullivan, the new girl at school. She’s not hostile. She’s bold. Funny. Hot. But she’s got an agenda, too.

With supposedly secret powers rippling to the surface everywhere around him, Hunter knows something ugly is about to go down. But finding out what means he’ll have to find someone he can trust…

Brigid Kemmerer finds the time to write somewhere between caring for her family and working at her day job, but sometimes she ends up mothering her coworkers and managing her family. Storm: The Elemental Series is her first novel.

    Nothing I’m particularly interested in except for Dare You To – which I WILL be getting because it was AMAZING. I might also give Wild Awake a go because of Blythe’s review, so yeah. 🙂

  3. Amy

    I never did get into the Elemental Series, but I have the first book and two of the novellas. (I really need to stop buying books for nook or kindle until I’m ready to read them lol) Ahhhh Dare You To comes out next week and I still haven’t read it. I fail!! Fail I tell you. Why can’t I get into it? *cries* Ohh I’m excited to get the audiobook of Beautiful Stranger. I loved the audio of Beautiful Bastard. I’m reading Obsession right now and it’s fantastic!! Love having an adult (sexy one) novel from the Arum side of things.

    I’m curious about My Sister’s Reaper the cover title had me giggling. The one I’m looking forward to is Sky On Fire. I really liked Monument 14 and I can’t wait to see what happens now that we get to see more of the outside carnage.

  5. Melanie

    AAH! Spirit was so good. 🙂 Still cannot get enough of Hunter- the ending was earth shattering. Dare You To was just as amazing. I’ve seen mixed thoughts on Wide Awake so I’m thinking on passing that one. I can’t wait for Of Triton! It comes out in Australia in July and the cover is gorgeous.

    Thanks for sharing, chick! <33

    Ahhh! So many great books coming out! I can’t wait for Of Triton, Dare You To, Goddess, and Wild Awake. I just recently read The Girl with the Iron Touch, and considering how much I love that series, it was such a great read. And I need to get on with that Elemental series! I’ve heard that a lot of people like those books, so I should read them, I think 😀 Thanks for this!
    Cheers!

    I’m really looking forward to Spirit’s release! I enjoyed the book and can’t wait to buy a finished copy for my Elementals set. I’m also quite curious about Wild Awake. I’ve read a couple of positive reviews for it which have piqued my interest. 🙂 Thanks for sharing, as always!

  9. Shooting Stars Mag

    I’m so excited for Molly Harper’s latest. Love her; need to get caught up on all the current books out I haven’t read yet. Her Jane Jameson series is fab though!

    I want to read Openly Straight as well. The Original 1982 sounds pretty interesting too.

  10. Aman

    GODDESS!!! I can’t wait to see how this trilogy ends! Besides that, I’m soo looking forward to Obsession by Jennifer L. Armentrout, I love that it has the same world as her Lux series. This is a great week for books!
