This is the book where I stretched the whole ‘forest’ theme because this is set in a jungle. It’s still a collection of trees, so I think it counts! This is the newest book from the author of Within These Wicked Walls, which I recently read and loved. It follows a young woman with magic in her blood who leads expeditions through a terrifying jungle. It sounds absolutely incredible and I was lucky enough to get an e-ARC from Netgalley to read! I’m so excited to pick it up.

I’m honestly not sure how prominently the snowy forest on the cover of this book is featured, but I wanted to throw this book on the list anyways. Mostly because I’ve been eager to read this for awhile now! It’s a Nutcracker retelling that sounds like it would be a great time. I know I like this author’s writing and I would love to see what she does with this classic tale. Also, the cover is freakin’ gorgeous 😍

In this book, we follow two friends that go for a hike in the woods and then everything goes wrong. Like… in a deadly way. A thriller set in the woods is exactly my thing, so I’ve been wanting to check this out for awhile! You’ll note that’s a trend with me 😂 I’ve also been curious about trying out this author for a minute. Here’s hoping that I actually pick this up some time soon and that I enjoy it! The synopsis makes me think that I will.

Here’s another book that has been on my TBR for awhile and I have no idea why I haven’t read it yet. I was so excited for this book to come out! It has a creepy woods, which we have established is one of my favorite things. It also has a man called the Wolf of the Woods which sounds even more like my vibe. I’ve heard so many good things about this book, as well, and I’m hoping I love it as much as everyone else has so far.

Again, I’m not sure how prominently the titular woods feature in this book, but I’m hoping it’s quite a lot. This is by the author of Cemetery Boys, which I truly enjoyed, so I’ve been wanting to check this out for a bit. It’s a Peter Pan retelling, which is probably why I’ve held off on it for so long. That is one classic story that never really captivated me. I didn’t even like the Disney movie, haha. Still, this sounds like it could be a very intriguing retelling.
