But with ninety-five days left until her treatment, Lena does the unthinkable: She falls in love.
I've already finished this one and it is as amazing as you'd think it'd be!
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Although Emma’s father was found not guilty of murdering her grandmother in Kalos, Greece, the accusation haunts the family. When Emma becomes the target of vicious bullies at school, enough is enough, and she secretly hatches a plan to visit Kalos to find the truth.
I'm hoping to possibly read this one in time for Anti-Bullying Week, depending on my schedule in the next few weeks! (I have since finished it and it is wonderful! Review soon!)
--------------------------------------------------------------------

This one sounds like SUCH FUN that I cannot wait.
--------------------------------------------------------------------

I've been waiting for this book for so long! I really hope that that doesn't work against it when I do get around to reading it!
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Not my usual reading material, but I've read the first 20 pages or so and it's really very interesting. I think they have a great business strategy!
--------------------------------------------------------------------

But Tomas is a man with a past—a past that is tracking him with deadly intent. As surely as the snow falls softly in the forest of a hundred thousand silver birch trees, father and son must face a soulless enemy and a terrifying destiny.
I've always heard such good things about Marcus Sedgwick and after reading White Crow recently, I'm really quite excited to read more of his books. I think I've checked this one out from the library previously but wasn't able to get around to it. Hopefully I'll more of an opportunity now!
--------------------------------------------------------------------

On an isolated northern island, the people of Wing are trying to hold onto their way of life -- even as the sea continues to claim precious acres and threatens to claim their very lives.
Only fifteen-year-old Mara has the vision and the will to lead her people in search of a new beginning in this harsh, unfamiliar world.
This compelling and powerful story set in the near future will hit home with teens, especially those who are ever more aware of the increasingly controversial climate crisis we face in our world today.
I do love a good dystopic YA novel and I've been meaning to read this one for awhile.
--------------------------------------------------------------------

It could have been such a sweet, romantic moment. Except that Beth, the head cheerleader, has only the vaguest idea who Denis is. And Denis, the captain of the debate team, is so far out of her league he is barely even the same species. And Kevin, Beth's remarkably large boyfriend, is in town on furlough from the United States Army.
I hear this one is quite funny. It was added to my wishlist after a review I read over at Forever Yound Adult which is possibly one of the greatest YA review blogs around! I hope this one is as good as they've said!--------------------------------------------------------------------

A turf war is imminent, since the new pixie king, Astley, is moving in quickly. Nick nearly killed him in the woods on day one, but Zara came to his rescue. Astley swears that he and Zara are destined to be together, that he's one of the good guys. Nick isn't buying it, though Zara isn't as sure -- despite herself, she wants to trust the new king. But it's a lot more than her relationship with Nick that is at stake. It's her life -- and his.
Second book in a series where I have the first and third, it seemed logical to pick this book up. Quite looking forward to the series!
--------------------------------------------------------------------

When a soulfinder speaks telepathically to her partner, it's like all the lights coming on in a building. You lit me up like Vegas. But for Sky it's just not that easy - she's a mystery to herself, haunted by nightmares from her past before she was adopted, and riddled with doubt and insecurity. Just when Sky is slowly coming round to the idea of being with Zed she is kidnapped by a family of criminal Savants. In a chilling twist, Sky and Zed's relationship is put to the ultimate test and the fate of those she loves lie in Sky's hands. Will Sky have the strength to embrace her power and be brave enough to control her own destiny, or will the dark demons of her past prevent her from realising her true potential?
I keep hearing good things about this book, it was recently on a blog tour and sounded quite good.
