Notable New Releases - January 2012

Here are the new YA releases I'm most excited about this month!

January 3rd

Cinder by Marissa Meyer
Feiwel & Friends
A futuristic twist on Cinderella. :)
Just finished this last week and LOVED it!!

Under the Never Sky by Veronica Rossi
HarperCollins
Debut post-apocolyptic YA
I've heard very good things.

Bloodrose (Nightshade #3) by Andrea Cremer
Philomel (Penguin)
I really dislike the new cover designs, but I still like the writing.  :)  I thought Wolfsbane (Nightshade #2) was a fabulous continuation of the series and have been looking forward to reading this conclusion for a while!  For more on Andrea Cremer and how much I LOVED reading Nightshade, check out this post.

A Million Suns (Across the Universe #2) by Beth Revis

Yay!  Last I knew this didn't have a cover, but now it DOES and the book is actually out!
I so loved Heidi's debut novel, Sea (really good realistic fiction), and am WAY excited to read this.
She's another SF Bay Area resident too!  :)
