Notable Books of the Week: 1/15-1/21

Here are some notable book releases on my radar that were released this past week:

YA:

Carve the Mark Book 1 by Veronica Roth

I'll be honest, it's pretty up in the air if I'm ever going to read this. Divergent and I...I have issues with it, lets just say. I've also heard some iffy things about the representation going on in here that make me very hesitant to pick it up. If I do, it'll be from the library. But it's a pretty big release from this week. So it's on the list,

History is All You Left Me by Adam Silvera

This book has been getting tons of buzz and I've heard great things about the author's previous book: More Happy Than Not.







Adult Fiction:

Human Acts by Han Kang

If you're into the literary fiction scene, this is a book a lot of your literary group is probably going to be talking about.

Fever 9: Feversong by Karen Marie Moning

Another one where it's kind of up in the air about whether or not I'll ever read it (I'm kind of over the Fever series, too many issues with how the author handles rape and other things). But if you're still into it, your wait for the sequel is over.





Non-Fiction:

My Life, My Love, My Legacy by Coretta Scott King

A autobiography from the wife of Dr. Martin Luther King. Kudos to the publishers for the timing of this book.







Graphic novels/manga released this past week:

Batman Vol. 1: I Am Gotham (more Rebirth arc stuff)
Aquaman Vol. 1: The Drowning
The Flash, Silver Age Omnibus Vol. 2
