RECAP | FrenzyPresents: Winter 2022 Preview

Harper Collins' FrenzyPresents: Winter 2022 Preview was an absolute blast to attend! On Wednesday December 15th, a bunch of bloggers, booktubers, librarians, and booksellers got together for FrenzyPresents: Winter 2022 Preview, an event hosted by HarperCollins' Canada Frenzy team online. This was my third time attending the event. 

It began with an introduction to V.E. Schwab, discussion about her upcoming release, Galant, as well as opened a Q&A session with attendees of the event. We then opened to the FrenzyPresents team introducing themselves and presenting the upcoming Winter 2022 titles as well as briefly displaying some of the Spring 2022 title works.

It had a myriad of upcoming title releases that I was beyond excited to hear about. It also had clips from some of the authors themselves, introducing who they are as well as delving into their stories and what they each entail. The authors featured during the event included Angela Velez, Abdi Nazemian, Claire Legrand, Deborah Falaye, and Erik J. Brown.

Everyone also had an opportunity to win prizes and  receive some of their most anticipated upcoming Winter 2022 releases. It was an absolutely fun event to attend! Thanks to the ladies from HarperCollins' Frenzy for hosting such a spectacularly fun event and for inviting me to it! 😊


Here are just some of the books discussed at the event:

Not to forget a highly anticipated adaption and tie-in editions!

• The Hating Game by Sally Thorne (04/01/2022)

Having read (and adored) Thorne's novel, The Hating Game, I knew I had to watch its film adaption and see how if Vertical Entertainment managed to produce an adequate movie of this major title release. Not wanting to spoil anything for anyone, and keeping in mind that I plan to release a review of this book-to-movie adaption, I can say that it exceeded my expectations, was highly enjoyable to watch, and definitely one worth checking out.

And upcoming Spring 2022 releases!

• Blade Breaker by Victoria Aveyard  – sequel to Realm Breaker (06/28/2022)
• Café Con Lychee by Emery Lee – author of Meet Cute Diary. (05/10/2022)
• The Silence that Binds Us by Joanna Ho - first young adult book for author. (06/14/2022)
