Comments on Can't Wait Books of 2012 - page 2

Interesting to see how many vampire books in this list.

Ah. Roppongi. My kind of story, can't wait!

I know right? I saw a couple books on the list that were already published!

Yes, but Raeleen said Clockwork Prince.

LOL so are there any new books coming out this year?

Its nearly all sequels.

look at the last page.... the bible???

November... I answered my own question in another thread. I am not sure if this tops Insurgent on my list, but I am anxious to read it.

#723 new york to dallas came out in 2011. Sorry, I tried to edit but couldn't figure out how to.

#862 (last one, just above #900) Dark of the Moon has 2004 copyright.

The edit link is right near the title.

Too bad...no edit link for me :(

Most of the 2012 books I want come out in AUGUST!!!!!!
Can we just skip 6 months of the year???

Deleted a bunch of them again. Including a whole lot of James Joyce novels, Spinoza books and a King James Bible.

Loulou, most books I really look forward to come out in March, all on the same day. It's a whole new problem really, what on earth will I read first?

Wow. That SUCKS! I would hate for them all to come out on the same day! I bet by the time the new school year comes around, no one will ever see me again because i'll have locked myself in my room, reading!

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that'll happen to me on the 6th.

God I wish A Memory of Light was coming this year
Grrrr

I Know!! I'm getting really frustrated!! Who writes a book with such a suspenseful ending, and doesn't even make immediate plans to write the sequel??

Someone who has enough money that they never have to work another day in their life? I hope for her fans sake that she continues, it would suck if she just said, "Screw it, I don't have to ever write again."

EXACTLY!!!! :)

It would be nice if books that have already been published, like Fallen, Divergent and City of Bones, were taken off the list. To people who don't know they've already been published, it's confusing. To those who do know, it's annoying.

Feel free to edit the list, Rose.

I removed over 120 entries today. I'm sure there are more, though. I couldn't access page 11 and I'm guessing My Soul to Steal, Pride, The House of the Scorpion, I am Number Four, Hard Times & The Scarlet Letter are hiding there.
Brontë, Dickens, Hawthorne.. Seriously? What's wrong with these people?

Rh3a, you're awesome. I lost patience with this list and I'm glad you took the time to fix it.

I honestly don't know what's wrong with these people who add really, really old books to the list. I am perplexed at their thought process.

Added the new book in the My Merlin Series coming in Summer 2012.

What makes that extra sad is that those 120 books were added in under 2 weeks, because that's when I last scrutinized the list and got rid of about the same number of books.

Most of the books were added by 3 users: Chazspiers(85!), Sravy and Aiza.

People just have no idea how much work it takes to keep the lists clean...

mantap

Thank you guys so much for this list! It is just what I was looking for.

Indeed.

Attempted to combine duplicates just now; it wouldn't let me. I'll try to try again later.

I've been trying to deal with the duplicates for a couple of weeks. Seems like there's some kind of glitch.

I wonder if we should report it at GR Feedback?

Done :)
I'm waiting for a response now.

You know what's sad is the majority of this list is just chick lit.

You know what's sad is you think the majority of us care about your opinion on the types of books we enjoy. You don't like them? Good for you. No one's telling you to read them.

I voted for and am excited for The Winds of Winter, but I'd be struck stone dead with surprise if it's published this year!

Do most of these books even have a plot?

Kim wrote: "Do most of these books even have a plot?"

No, no plot. No pages either. Just a front cover and a back cover - pretty artwork to look at.

more books to look forward to.....

What a bunch of garbagy looking books....

Someone tell me, please - are the Sookie Stackhouse books better than True Blood? Because that show became really bad, really fast.

Matt wrote: "Someone tell me, please - are the Sookie Stackhouse books better than True Blood? Because that show became really bad, really fast."

Yes, the books are a lot better.

JKR's new book should be on this list...too bad she hasn't released any information on it yet

I thin..."

I agree, but at least they are reading!

Change the name of the list to:

Can't Wait Books of 2012 for Girls

lol

LOL

::eyeroll::

You guys who are bitching about this list know you can add all the books you want to, right? Nobody is stopping you from adding your "literary fiction" or "books that guys like" or "books that aren't garbage." (As long as they come out this year, of course.)

Or, you know, you could just keep posting judgmental comments to make yourself feel better than the people who enjoy the books on this list.

The author's website says March 2013, actually.

OH I CANNOT WAIT!!!!!!!!! so many awsome books and i will have to wait month for them all!!!!

I don't see an edit button and Clockwork Princess comes out in 2013 now. It shouldn't be on this list.

Can't wait for some of these books to come out! Especially City of Lost Souls. Yayyyy!!!
