Week of February 9, 2013
Guys, I’m SUPER excited about all of these books! Like, INSANELY stoked about them. I can’t even deal.
NETGALLEY
A Touch of Scarlet: Unbound #2 by Eve Marie Mont (March 26, 2013 from K-Teen). I have to confess to not having read the first book in this series, A BREATH OF EYRE, yet, but I’m very much invested in reading it. I’m loving all these classic retellings going on right now, and I’m VERY intrigued about this Scarlet Letter reworking.
The Flame in the Mist by Kit Grindstaff (April 9, 2013 from Delacorte Press). I don’t know how I could NOT be excited about this debut MG fantasy. There’s prophecies and ghosts and a young girl named Jemma who has lots of interesting things to figure out about herself. Of course, all in the name of saving her kindgom with the help of her friend, Digby, and her two golden rats. WOOT!
Thanks K-Teen and Delacorte for these gems!

ARE YOU KIDDING ME WITH THESE BOOKS.
The Unearthly Series by Cynthia Hand. I read UNEARTHLY, loved it, and am totally invested. I can’t wait to read more about Clara, Christian, and TUCKER. (Ahem. Since we do the team thing with these books, I’m just going to say FOLLOW THE CAPSLOCK.) I am going to be making time to read the rest of this series ASAP.
Scarlet: The Lunar Chronicles #2 by Marissa Meyer. WAHHH THIS BOOK! I was lucky enough to read an ARC of this, thanks to my girl, Tara, and friends? CINDER is hands-down one of my favorite books from last year, also ever. SCARLET is better. It’s BETTER. My review is going up next week. Prepare for CAPSLOCK overload. If you aren’t reading this series, you are missing out. It’s almost not even a matter of my opinion. It’s like a fact.
TUCKER. psssssh.
OMG I have to start Unearthly, stat! And Scarlet, so incredibly excited for that! Awesome haul! Happy reading!
Yeah, Scarlet was AMAZING! I am so excited to be going to an author event next weekend featuring MARISSA MEYER! Seriously, it’s going to be the best thing ever.
Happy reading 🙂
Wow! Hand’s books look really good. I need to read them soon.

I’m also very invested in you reading A Breath of Eyre, because I am still unsure about whether I want to bother with that series or not, and would love to see your thoughts. Also, I really need to read Boundless already. IT’S JUST SO HARD TO SAY GOODBYE, ya know?
Cracking up over the FOLLOW THE CAPSLOCK comment 🙂
I have The Flame in the Mist from NG as well, and I’m looking forward to reading it! I’m loving that it’s a MG fantasy – two of my favorite things in one book 🙂
And yay for the Unearthly series! I really need to finish up with the next two books, but I’ll tell you this – we’re totally on the same team 🙂
Annnnndddd you know I ADORE Scarlet <3
