Yeah, yeah, I know it's NOT Wednesday but just to get those Caddyshack juices flowing and get you thinking here's a 5 second clip from YouTube.
As lovers of Caddyshack, this classic line has been used around our home for years so it seemed very appropriate to use it for that favorite book I’m waiting on.
We are all waiting for certain books that we feel like we can’t live without. For me it is any number of next ones in a favorite series but there are few that give you that WELLLLL -WE'RE WAITING feeling that we all had while anxiously waiting on the next new Harry Potter or Twilight book. Now those, I could have told you how many days, hours and minutes till they were available.
I was aware several months back that Meyer was releasing two new books in her Host series- The Soul and The Seeker, to be released some time in 2012. These two are ones that I get that WELLLLL- WE'RE WAITING feeling for. Normally, I’d show the covers but other than Literary Escapism.com’s reference to these books, I’ve seen no other mention of them.
Usually I don’t pay a whole lot of attention to what is coming out or when as I tend to collect 3 to 4 in a series and then read them back to back in a marathon reading session so it really is not a GOTTA HAVE situation.
I buy them and they lay on a shelf till another two or three in the series is released (which usually means years).
What book are you having that WELLLLL- WE'RE WAITING feeling for that won’t be out for a while yet?
Oh, and if you want the best source I’ve found to what’s coming out and when, check out Literary Escapism’s list of paranormals and fantasy reads that I use.
http://literaryescapism.com/info/releases.html
Oh, and one more thing, did I mention that I’m having a contest later on and anyone who tells me what their WELLLLL- WE'RE WAITING book is will be entered in it? So, be thinking about it. I'll be doing it with Rafflecopter as it has worked out so well.

I feel like I have been waiting forever for sequels to The Host and think we may see the movie before we read the next two books. I can't wait to read the sequel to Nevermore by Kelly Creagh, Enshadowed. As of right now, it's my most anticipated read of 2012.

Truly Bookish
I've been like that about The Inheritance by Christopher Paolini but I'm not desperate for it.
I am after Insurgent, the sequel to Divergent by Veronica Roth. Soooo desperate!
I'm waiting for the next book in The Iron Druid Chronicles. 2012 seems a long time to wait for a sequel.

I'm waiting for the next Alex Craft by kalayna Price, i'm very curious to read about it !
I can't wait for Pandemonium, sequel to Delirium. That ending is driving me insane!
Truly generous contest and I love the bunny pic. Awwww. I'm a series slut and I like to have everything in order before I start a new one. It's an OCD thing. I really want to give Eve Silver's "Otherkin" series a spin. Thanks for being a sweetie!
Me too! My hubby just can't understand WHY I can't read a book in a series unless I've got them all or at least enough to feast on (3 or 4). And never could I read one out of order, that's just not... just not...
just not... (my mind can't even wrap around that thought) right!
My "Gotta Have it!" book is The Clockwork Prince. Thanks so much for the giveaway Lisa! :)
Dani @ Refracted Light
I reallyreally like The Host,
hopefully the sequels are as good
=)
I am waiting for Beautiful Chaos(Caster Chronicles #3) by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl.Really excited about it!
There are soooo many books I am waiting on. The Larissa Ione series for LOD, the next won't be out till the end of November, and then I don't even want to think about how long I will have to wait fot the 3rd book. Lynsay Sands has a book that is the 3rd of a trilogy that won't be out until next Spring and the first 2 came out in Jan and Feb of this year. LONG wait for the 3rd book.

I would pretty much die for After Obsession or the Unbecoming of Mara Dyer...I would love to read and review these to for my own site and I just love the synopses. I'm sure you've read them, aren't they awesome?
One book that will be released in two months and that I really want is The Bite Before Christmas anthology because two of my favourite authors are in it, taking up half of the book each. So each will have a fairly long novella for me to read :)

I am seriously desperate to get my hands on "Lord of the Abyss" by Nalini Singh.

I am impatiently waiting for Midnight in Austenland by Shannon Hale. Austenland has just finished filming and I think it is slowing down the midnight book release.
Oh, and I want to read it because Austenland was sooo romantic!

One book that i can't wait to read is:
Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi. Ever since I saw the US cover I have been completely in awe of this book. I need to own it. Plus I have become totally obsessed with dystopian books and follow the author on twitter. Thanks.

I am so excited for Beautiful Chaos, can't wait, can't wait, can't wait :)

I have been reading the Ruth Galloway series set in Norfolk over the past three weeks and will shortly run out of the books. If Elly Griffiths could just finish the next one and publish it on Monday, that would save an agonising wait! Email cerievans1(at)gmail(dot)com. Thanks
Waiting for the next Karen Kingsbury book to be released.
I'd love to win Bet Me by Jennifer Cruise. That is awesome!!

"Angels of Darkness" by Ilona Andrews, Nalini Singh...
Love Nalini's books even if it is a short story!
I'm waiting for Goliath by Scott Westerfeld.
Seduction of a Highland Lass by Maya Banks, can't wait to read about this handsome brother in a kilt! Yum!

too many choices atm but it would be a dean koontz book
I'd have to say Shadow Heir by Richelle Mead. It's the fourth one in the Dark Swan series and doesn't come out until next year and although this series isn't my favourite of her's pretty much any Richelle Mead book gives me that oh-my-god-I-have-to-read-it-now!! feeling. It was hell waiting for all the VA books to come out and I was definitely counting the days, and randomly writing things like May 18th (the date Spirit Bound came out) all over the place. Thanks!
I have a very long wait till 27th March 2012 for Lover Reborn JR Ward. My must have,drop everything and read it as soon as the pre order comes through the letter box series of books.

I would choose Sweetly. I read Sisters Red and would like to read the next in the series. :)
misusedinnocence@aol.com
Oh yay... I hate waiting for sequels/series but once they're in my hands I love them ;) The book that I'm currently doing the impatient shuffle for is Michelle Sagara's newest, Cast in Ruin, to be released end of October.
Thanks for the giveaway!

I just finished Dragon Bound and I loved it. I know that Tiago's book is out and Rune's is out shortly, but I'm waiting for Graydon's book - only I don't think it's been written yet!
I'm also waiting for the Drink Deep by Chloe Neill which is out November 1 - I have Hard Bitten on my TBR but I heard it had a kind of cliff hanger-y ending so I didn't want to read it until DD was out so I knew that Ethan and Merit would be okay.

I´m waiting for 2011 The Clockwork Prince by Cassandra Clare (Dec) and Legend by Marie Lu (Nov). And for 2012 Insurgent by Veronica Roth(May) and The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight by Jennifer E. Smith (Jan).

Definitely Insurgent by Veronica Roth. I am ITCHING day and night (not literally, well sort of) to get my hands on this book. And I have to wait until May 2012?! Seems like such a long time, but I am sure it will be worth the wait. I was hesitant going into Divergent (book 1) but came out LOVING it and the author's style. I feel like it can only get better and more exciting. Sigh. :)
Thanks for having this giveaway. Awesome idea. And the clip is hilarious, I lol'ed.
