I thought I'd take a look at some new (or new-to-me) authors for some other books that I'm putting on my "to be read" list for next year.
Choker
by Elizabeth Woods
Simon & Schuster
January 2011
Not totally sure what this debut novel is about, just that it's supposed to be a thriller, and cover is gorgeous. So eye-catching.
XVI
by Julia Karr
Speak
January 2011
Gritty, dystopian with mature themes. Nina fears the day that she turns 16 and will be tattooed, as a sign that she is now available to any man who wants her.
The Demon Trapper's Daughter
by Jana Oliver
St. Martin's Griffin
February 2011
I'm excited about this paranormal story that takes place in Atlanta. Too bad it's not being released in hardcover.
Jenna & Jonah's Fauxmance
Walker Books for Young Readers
by Brendan Halpin and Emily Franklin
February 2011
Charlie Tracker and Fielding Withers appear to have a sizzling romance, on-screen and off in their alter egos of Jenna and Jonah. However, it's not a real relationship, but a "fauxmance" carefully orchestrated by their PR managers. Or is it?
The Iron Witch
by Karen Mahoney
Flux
February 2011
Flux
February 2011
Donna Underwood feels cursed by the magical iron tattoos she carries - a legacy from her alchemist parents in this tale of alchemists vs. faeries.
What a fantastic list you have there! I'm dying for Slice of Cherry, The Iron Witch and The Demon Trapper's Daughter as well. So many good books coming out in 2011!
ReplyDeleteI know it! I'm looking forward to shaking up my reading habits and reading more debut authors (or new to me authors) next year.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for The Iron Witch! It looks so interesting! :)
ReplyDeleteI know! I'm on the waiting list for all of these at my library.
ReplyDeleteJenna and Jonah was SO GOOD. I want to read it again. I can't believe it's coming out.
