Lauraelisabeth (fashion-by-the-book) Did Kiera Cass' Siren come out in 2009?


message 2: by Grack21 (new)

Grack21 Yeah, if the doors of stone comes out before 2018, I"ll eat my hat.


message 3: by Thibaut (new)

Thibaut Nicodème Why is Prince of Shadows on there? The first book of that series is coming in early 2016, I doubt the second will be out in the same year.


message 4: by Grack21 (new)

Grack21 Lot's of these books won't be out in 2016. Wishful thinking.


message 5: by Phe (new)

Phe According to Amazon, Blood Kiss, Black Dagger Legacy #1 is to be released on December 1, 2015.


message 6: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca I've gone ahead and deleted the Harry Potter books from this list, since they've been out for a few years now.


message 7: by *Layali* (last edited Dec 08, 2015 07:16PM) (new)

*Layali* Removed White Hot (Hidden Legacy #2) by Ilona Andrews as it is now scheduled to be released in May 2017. Also Heartless by Marissa Meyer somehow got on here twice. I deleted the one with the least amount of votes.


message 8: by Liz H (new)

Liz H {Redd's Reads} Deleted Muse of Nightmares by Laini Taylor as it is now the second book of the series and was pushed back to 2017.


message 9: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca Removed The Stand by Stephen King, which was released in 1978 (and then again in 1990, but still not in 2016).


message 10: by Angela (new)

Angela The Red Queen came out in 2015, not 2016.

message 12: by Sarah (new)

Sarah I removed Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell (2006)


message 13: by Kogiopsis (new)

Kogiopsis Oathbringer by Brandon Sanderson isn't coming out this year. We'd be lucky to get late 2017.


message 14: by Gabriella (new)

Gabriella No. 95 Born of Vengeance by Sherrilyn Kenyon was supposed to be released in July 2016, but was postponed to 2017...

Sarah Jessica wrote: "Could you also remove Lord of Shadows by Cassandra CLare, it comes out in April of 2017 according to her twitter"

Done - I confirmed the 2017 expected publication date with a second source and then removed it from the list.



message 18: by Jessica (new)

Jessica Cold Sassy Tree (#554) is at least 20 years old, if not more.


message 19: by Jessica (new)

Jana P I, Ripper came out in 2015. As did "Room"

Leah Currently #35 The Bastards and the Knives (Gentleman Bastard, #0) https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... should be removed as it will not be published in 2016 (see this tweet by the author, Scott Lynch).

Sarah Leah wrote: "Currently #35 The Bastards and the Knives (Gentleman Bastard, #0) https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... should be removed as it will not be published in 2016 (see ..."

I was hesitant to remove this based on a 2014 tweet when it has 125 votes but I looked into it a bit more and while I couldn't find much what I did find supports the claim that it will not be released until at least 2017. Thank you for including the number where it currently is on this list - that is a big help!

Room (2015) and I, Ripper (2015) also removed.


message 25: by Lady Heather (new)

Lady Heather 366 Court of Thorns and Roses came out in 2015


message 26: by Sarah (new)

Removed it :-)


message 27: by Traci (new)

Traci Missed: Boar Island by Nevada Barr (5/17/16), Peace Talks by Jim Butcher, A Great Reckoning by Louise Penny (8/30/16), Unraveled by Jennifer Estep (8/30/16) and Unwanted by Jennifer Estep (novella, 718/16).


message 28: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca I've added the new edition of Neverwhere released in 2016 to this list, as it's a revised version and apparently includes a fairly substantial amount of new material. If anyone considers this inappropriate, please delete the entry. Thanks!


message 29: by Erika (new)

Erika Williams Lauraelisabeth (fashion-by-the-book) wrote: "Did Kiera Cass' Siren come out in 2009?"


The original writing did, but this version is a re-write. It's re-written more for a younger audience. I found it more high school level, whereas the original write was more for young adults in their 20s. I prefer the original version.


message 30: by Terry (new)

Terry I noticed several books were on the list twice. FYI


message 31: by Maricel (new)

Maricel Lauraelisabeth (fashion-by-the-book) wrote: "Did Kiera Cass' Siren come out in 2009?"

Its a re-issue with some tweaks with the writing - accdg to her.


message 32: by Hannah (new)

Hannah Clockwork Princess by Cassandra Clare came out in 2013.


message 33: by Hannah (new)

Hannah Also Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater came out in 2009, and The Hunger Games and Divergent were definitely not released in 2016, haha!


message 34: by Sammm (new)

Sammm Um hi. Does anyone know the exact situation with Laini Taylor's Strange the Dreamer? When I saw it also being listed in the Can't Wait [...] 2017, I first assumed it got pushed back... But then this edition ---> Strange the Dreamer by Laini Taylor still has its publication date in 2016; so idk which of the can't wait list should it actually be removed from. Just thought I should bring it up and let more experienced librarian decide.


message 35: by Sarah (new)

Sarah Sammm wrote: "Um hi. Does anyone know the exact situation with Laini Taylor's Strange the Dreamer? When I saw it also being listed in the Can't Wait [...] 2017, I first assumed it..."

Based on Laini Taylor's blog and an article on entertainment weekly's website it seems like it is expected to be released in September 2016 so definitely leave it on this list. :-)


message 36: by Leah (new)

Leah The following books need removed from the 2016 list. I included their position number at the time of this post. Thanks!

Neverwhere #469 page 5 pub 1996
The Fate of Ten #686 page 7 pub 2015
Broken Dolls (Broken Dolls, #1) #964 page 10 pub 2015
Hush, Hush (Hush, Hush, #1) #964 page 10 pub 2009


message 37: by Sarah (new)

Wow, thanks for all the cleanup!

Aww, I'm still in the process of cleaning up; I admit it's mostly because of selfish reasons, because I have quite a few items ranked low, and find it annoying when loads ranked before them weren't even meeting criteria.

BTW, I'm also wary, cuz last night before I went to bed, I know I had this list down to 1290, and as I reply, it's gone up to 1309; idk if it's likely for people to come back here to vote for books that actually qualify (the timing of 19 new books popping up after my gradual mass-removal feels a bit too coincidental,) or if upsettingly they've come back to add the books that shouldn't be here. If Librarians can help viewing pages 5-13 and once again remove any items listed above if spotted, it'd be much appreciated.

Updates: I've removed another batch of 61 books, so the number is down to 1248, but it should have been 1229 at this point had the 19 items not (re?)appeared overnight.

---

Updates 2: I believe I caught the person who added back the majority of the mystery 19 "additional" items: www.goodreads.com/list/user_vote/6076091

There's almost no point for me to remove them again since this person clearly added them back not long after; pity there's no "flag" option that I can directly get the GR staff involved. And before anyone accuses me of "taking this too serious," IS IT SO HARD TO READ AND FOLLOW THE RULES? I am very temped to go leave a message but it most likely would just end up extremely rude. If anyone can deal with this person, again, much appreciated.

For certain so-called fans, your inability to properly READ the instructions to understand that this list is for books originally published in 2016, will eventually let others look down upon you, and I personally will be the first one to do so. According to previous comments above, White Hot (Hidden Legacy #2), A Court of Thorns and Roses (A Court of Thorns and Roses #1), and Lord of Shadows (The Dark Artifices #2) have already been removed once, yet, at the moment I'm typing, 16, 2, 1 people/person respectively voted for them for them to still be on the list. Considered yourselves called out. I admit I sound rude and self-righteous, but seriously, what is the point of adding back items that clearly do not belong?

Sammm Oh, since I feel bad for high-positioned items to rank lower when they were actually voted on their respective correct list, here goes; though seriously, I'm not feeling too bad, for the voters themselves didn't bother to check where they should have voted.

bookcover | 2016 ranking & # of voters ---> 2017 ranking & # of voters
