A few books still sitting on my TBR pile are getting sequels this month. Which is a reminder I need to get on top of things and read the first books. Of all the new releases coming in February there are four that I'm pretty excited to get my hands my hands on.

Big thanks to Goodreads for the brief descriptions of the books. I'm excited for a lot of things getting ready to hit shelves, but these are the four that I wan to make sure I read in 2016. The ones I don't want to see hit the bottom of my TBR pile.
