So with the news released today that the boys will be releasing two new books this year (the 2015 official annual and a new full-joint autobiography), I thought it'd be great to make a thread for all the books that have been and are to come! happy.gif

· Official Annual 2012
· Official Annual 2013
· Official Annual 2014
· Official Annual 2015 [just announced; released late 2014]

· Forever Young
· Dare to Dream
· Where We Are
· TBA [autobiography just announced; released September 2014]

Do you own any of the books? Looking forward to the new releases this year?

I've only got the 2013 and 2014 annuals and Where We Are just now, but hoping to purchase Dare to Dream soon! Can't wait for the new biography too, plenty of Zayn included hopefully kink.gif I also saw an unofficial book in WH Smith a couple of weeks ago as well, and it looked quite good! May go back and get that.

I have each and every one of those so far I believe. Plus a few unofficial books including an A-Z on them which was quite fun to read.

Is this their first book to be printed as a paperback as well as hardback?

I'll probably buy the next book. It's the first time they've done at Autobiography, so you would imagine it will be pretty decent. Obviously they won't be able to say too much mind.. that will have to wait for when they split!

Also I think they need to ditch that 'One Direction' font, it looks terrible. They should just go by 1D, like Rihanna uses her 'R'.

Might get this for Christmas. Not really expecting it to be a particularly good read though? They've covered X Factor to just before the 'Midnight Memories' album in their previous books, so you wonder if there's anything new to say - or at least if they'll be more detailed and honest about all aspects of what life is like being a member of One Direction. I can't really imagine it'll be warts and all. Another book that Zayn finds lame? kink.gif

It's actually written by them I suppose, at least in an official capacity, so I think I'll buy it as it will be interesting. Of course when they inevitably break-up then their autobiographies will be really interesting.

Just finished listening to the audiobook of this (thanks to good old sendspace) and it wasn't nothing revolutionary as expected. Liam and especially Niall, sounded very wooden and you could tell they were reading aloud from the book. Whereas the others sounded a lot more natural and it was as if they were just chatting in conversation.

It lasted 1hr 45 mins. Harry got half an hour, Niall & Zayn about 20 mins each, Louis and Liam got about 15 mins each.

Saw this in WH Smith on my lunch today, but didn't buy it (my inner 1D fan wasn't confident enough going up to a female cashier with it in my hand kink.gif). Needless to say, it looks no more impressive than their previous books - mostly pictures with a few paragraphs here and there. sad.gif Will still buy at one point though.

WIMP x

I'm gonna ask for this for Christmas I think, not my #1 priority right now. A book I've probably read before, in their other three, and year-old pictures? kink.gif

The pictures actually looked fairly recent (well, Zayn's anyway - I didn't bother boring myself with any of the others kink.gif)
