Last year, I made two posts about my most anticipated books of 2019. This post I’ll go through them to check if I read them or not 😁
This part 2 of 2 post I made featured Underhyped books. The first post was all about the books I saw creping up on my feed or I heard people talking about within the book community. This second post is about all the other books I hadn’t seen much publicity for.
So let’s dive into my old list of 2019 releases and see if I read them or not 😁
Underhyped Books
The Deep by Rivers Solomon
Published: 5th November 2019
Read? No. I tried to pre-order it but Waterstones had cencelled it before its release so I’m yet to get a copy. I will read this whenever I get to it.
Woven in Moonlight by Isabel Ibanez
Published: delayed for 7th January 2020
Read? Obviously not, but I will 😏

The Test by Sylvian Neuvel
Published: 12th February 2019
Read? Nope. I never got to it. I have also not seen it in shops, but it got some good reviews so I will read it at some point.
Dragon Pearl by Yoon Ha Lee
Published: 11th June 2019
Read? No. For some reason I completely forgot about this book until now. There was a lot of dragons published this year and this just left my brain. I’m in no rush the read it, but if I see it in the library I might pick it up 😊

Never Die by Rob J Hayes

The Gutter Prayers by Gareth Hanrahan
Published: 17th January 2019
Read? Yes and I did a full review. I didn’t love it but it was interesting and original.

Reverie by Ryan La Sala

David Mogo, Godhunter by Suyi Davies Okungbowa

Serpent & Dove by Shelby Mahurin
Published: 3rd Spetember 2019
Read? No. This book has gotten very mixed review and I’m torn wether to read or not to read…
Goodreads page for Serpent & Dove
Out of 12 books I read 3… that’s low and poor attendance by me, but oh well. One has been delayed for next year and will again feature my list for 2020. One I tried to get but it wasn’t sold in the UK apparently… Lastly I have one waiting for me. and that’s it. 6 books I have no excuse for..
Did you read any of these? Did you like it?
I also loved Wicked fox! Personally I really didn’t like Seprent & Dove..
