It's been a while since I did one of these, but I quite like the challenge of giving my last 10 books a one-word review, and since it's Wyrd and Wonder I will be focusing on my latest fantasy reads (though that's mostly business as usual).

Given this, I thought I'd talk about some of the books that are coming out this year between June and December that I cannot wait to get my hands on! There may be some that I've mentioned a few times on the blog, but I haven't included any ARCs I've already read, even if their release date is June, and for those you can look back through my reviews! So, here are 21 fantasy books that I am really looking forward to for the rest of 2021:
