Renée Winters has changed. When she looks in the mirror, a beautiful girl with an older, sadder face stares back. Her condition has doctors mystified, but Renée can never reveal the truth: she died last May, and was brought back to life by the kiss of her Undead soul mate, Dante Berlin.
Now, her separation from Dante becomes almost unbearable. His second life is close to an end, and each passing day means one less that she will spend with the boy who shares her soul.
Just when Renée has almost given up hope, she learns of the Nine Sisters—brilliant scholars who, according to legend, found a way to cheat death. She can’t shake the feeling that they are somehow connected to her dreams, strange visions that hint at a discovery so powerful, and so dangerous, that some will stop at nothing to protect it.
Renée thought she knew the truth about life and death. But there is a secret woven through history that holds the only hope for Dante and Renée. Unless they find answers soon, their time together is doomed to be cut short.

Hey guys! Like I promised I said I would start doing more cover reveals again, so here are some that have recently been released! (:
Timepiece (Hourglass #2)- by Myra McEntire
To be Released: June 12th 2012 by EgmontUSA publishing.
Add it on goodreads? here
Blurb: Not yet released.
I LOVE this cover, it is very similar to the first books cover, yet still different. I like this one more personally, I love the blue vintage wallpaper in the room, I just love this cover. I have not read Hourglass, but hopefully everyone who has is very excited for Timepiece release date! (:
Social Suicide (Deadly Cool #2) by Gemma Halliday
To be Released: April 24th 2012 by HarperTeen
Add it on goodreads? here
Blurb: Twittercide [twit-er-sahyd]: the killing of one human being by another while the victim is in the act of tweeting.
Call me crazy, but I figured writing for the Herbert Hoover High Homepage would be a pretty sweet gig. Pad the resume for college applications, get a first look at the gossip column, spend some time ogling the paper's brooding bad-boy editor, Chase Erikson. But on my first big story, things went...a little south. What should have been a normal interview with Sydney Sanders turned into me discovering the Homecoming Queen-hopeful dead in her pool. Electrocuted while Tweeting. Now, in addition to developing a reputation as HHH's resident body finder, I'm stuck trying to prove that Sydney's death wasn't suicide.
I'm starting to long for the days when my biggest worry was whether the cafeteria was serving pizza sticks or Tuesday Tacos...
Raine has always been a good girl. She lives by the rules in Freedom. After all, they are her father’s rules: He’s the Director. It’s because of him that Raine is willing to use her talent—a power so dangerous, no one else is allowed to know about it. Not even her roommate, Vi.
All of that changes when Raine falls for Gunner. Raine’s got every reason in the world to stay away from Gunn, but she just can’t. Especially when she discovers his connection to Vi’s boyfriend, Zenn. Raine has never known anyone as heavily brainwashed as Vi. Raine’s father expects her to spy on Vi and report back to him. But Raine is beginning to wonder what Vi knows that her father is so anxious to keep hidden, and what might happen if she helps Vi remember it. She’s even starting to suspect Vi’s secrets might involve Freedom’s newest prisoner, the rebel Jag Barque...

Until I Die (Revenants #2) by Amy Plum
To be Released: May 3rd 2012 by HarperTeen
Add it on goodreads? here
Blurb:My life had always been blissfully, wonderfully normal. But it only took one moment to change everything.
Suddenly, my sister, Georgia, and I were orphans. We put our lives into storage and moved to Paris to live with my grandparents. And I knew my shattered heart, my shattered life, would never feel normal again. Then I met Vincent.
Mysterious, sexy, and unnervingly charming, Vincent Delacroix appeared out of nowhere and swept me off my feet. Just like that, I was in danger of losing my heart all over again. But I was ready to let it happen.
Of course, nothing is ever that easy. Because Vincent is no normal human. He has a terrifying destiny, one that puts his life at risk every day. He also has enemies . . . immortal, murderous enemies who are determined to destroy him and all of his kind.
While I'm fighting to piece together the remnants of my life, can I risk putting my heart—as well as my life and my family's—in jeopardy for a chance at love?
"My Thoughts"
ha ANOTHER series I havnt read yet, but anyways I like the cover, but I think I liked the first books cover more. They made the back of her dress look kinda ..weird? idk if anyone else notices that..I think they were trying to make the dress look like it was blowing in the wind, but it just didn't work out right. Anyways still a pretty cover (:

Forbidden love, intoxicating power, and the terror of control… Raine has always been a good girl. She lives by the rules in Freedom. After all, they are her father’s rules: He’s the Director.

OMG!! I am SO excited for this book, and I LOVE the cover. The first book I read and loved it! The pretty thing about this series is all that white part, is actually sparkly! So it is actually not that plain of a book. I cannot express how excited I was when I saw this on goodreads!

This Wednesday I am waiting on Disenchanted by Sherry Soule, published by Moonlight,
and set to be released January 2012
Elizabeth Blackburn, an intelligent and sassy New Yorker, doesn’t believe in the supernatural until she moves into Summerwind Mansion and begins having nightmares about a young woman murdered in the house. She suspects there’s something strange about this place and it’s not just the bad dreams.
Determined to unlock secrets that have remained hidden for centuries, Elizabeth is plunged into an otherworldly mystery that not even she can explain away. Not to mention, her uncontrollable attraction to the former owner, Dorian Knight. But soon after meeting Dorian, all of her beliefs are tested. He seems so familiar, and as close to Mr. Darcy as she’ll ever get—but Jane Austen never wrote a hero like him--someone who both excites and frightens her.
As the dark history of the Knight family begins to unravel, tensions heighten and old resentments turn deadly. Even though Dorian warns her about a terrible curse–she doesn’t know what to believe anymore.
And Elizabeth starts to wonder which she would rather hold onto—her sanity…or her life…

Bridger starts with Ash (Ashlyn). Ash has just lost her dad, and needs sometime to get away from everything, so she is taking a trip to Ireland to visit some family. Ash loves Ireland, and the people she is meeting, especially Liam..she doesn't know what it is about him, but he is all she can think about. After a horrific night involving her 'best friend' Jamie trying to kill her, Ash finds out what she is, she is a Bridger, not just a Bridger though, she is one of a kind..and Liam has sworn his life to be her protector. As if finding out she isn't even human wasn't enough, she now has to go back to america.. with Liam and he will be staying with Reese a guy friend of hers who has more then just friend feelings for her..oh and did I mention there is a powerful Changling that is after her?

I loved loved loved loved this book! If you didn't know, I absolutely adore Fae books, and this one has come to be one of my favorites! Everything about this book drew me in, the romance, the action, the characters, it was just an amazing read. Megan made an amazing group of characters, never once did I get the feeling things were unrealistic! Megan was able to write a story of magic and love and still make it realistic, which to be honest I feel no books lately can combine magic and love AND make it seem realistic.
So with that said, Bridger is out, you need to go buy it, you need to go read it. It's one of my new favorite books, and I am dying for book two!
-Oh and Liam is sooo gonna be an upcoming 'Book boyfriend' of mine, just sayin (;

BLURB
ROSE Frost receives a bracelet on her sixteenth birthday, a parting gift from her mother who claims it is a family heirloom. From that night Rose starts having vivid dreams and strange visions. DAYS after, her family separate and Rose moves into her grandmother's house. Her dreams start to involve a woman called Halíka Dacomé. Is she a legend or a figment of her imagination? DANGER strikes one night. Rose is first on the scene after she smells burning and discovers a car that has been purposely set on fire. She is convinced that the boy in her latest vision is inside the car. The mysterious Aiden Deverill pulls Rose to safety, but not before a window explodes and a ball of fire burns them both. She uses her secret healing gift to heal the scars and to all appearances remains unscathed. But Aiden is free from burns too and Rose doesn't know why. She is drawn to his alluring smile, his gorgeous dark looks and hypnotising blue eyes, but as they get closer her friends warn her off claiming that he's bad news. Rose tries to find the truth about Halika Dacomé and more about why Aiden is so disliked, but she soon gets drawn into helping her friends solve the mystery behind the missing Warminster townsfolk. The latest missing person is her new friend Jez's father. During the investigation she meets Morgan, a family friend of Daisy's who lives in the cottage at the bottom of Daisy's garden. He's kind, funny and clearly devoted to her, but Rose finds out that his hatred towards Aiden and his grandfather, Ben Deverill, lies rooted in a shocking event that happened years before involving both families. For Rose, her new life is beginning but she soon realizes that people are not always what they seem, and finds it difficult to determine who to trust. What she always believed to be a happy family and a friendly town soon turns on its head when she discovers that her family secret, Aiden Deverill and the truth behind Halíka Dacomé is at the heart of the whole conspiracy.This book has left me completly and utterly astonished! When I recieved this book for review I knew I was gonna enjoy it, I had no idea though that it was gonna put me on a rollar coaster of love, suspense, mystery and so much more ! This book has surprises around every corner and I loved every moment I spent devouring it! Needless to say, I really liked this book.
Elemental is threw the eyes of Rose, Rose is moving into her Grandmas house, as far as she knows, her dad has a dangerous job, and some people want to hurt him and his family, so her family leaves her to live with her grandma so she is safe, what rose doesn't know, is there is way more to why they want her living there..Rose meets up with some old friends, and things seem to be going great she even starts to form feelings for Morgan, Morgan seems perfect, but there is someone else occupying Rose's thoughts, and that's Aiden. Aiden is mysterious and dangerous, everyone tells Rose he is bad news and she needs to stay away, but he seems so caring towards Rose that it's hard for her to beilieve them, as more and more weird things start to happen around Rose she will be tested in ways she can't even imagine, her heart will be tested, she will be betrayed, and she will find out what she is to become...
Alexandra May has put together such an amazing new addition to the YA world, and I can honestly say I can't wait to see more of her work! Elemental took on awhole new fantasy involving the Halíka Dacomé legend, but what Rose believes is a legend, isnt at all. This book had wonderful plot, the story was something new and completly keeps your attention threwout, the characters had great development, scenry is beautifully describeded, this book just had everything I look for in an amazing read.
One of the best aspects of this story for me was the suspense. This book had me on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen! Rose is so fearless and threwout the story is put in sistuations where you can't help, but get the feeling something bad is going to happen. This was one of the main reasons this book got me so much, when Rose enters those situations you can't help but keep reading until you know everyone will come out okay!
The romance is also what really caught my attention, Rose has mixed feelings for both Morgan and Aiden, Morgan is gorgeous and everyone loves him, Rose has feelings for him, but it's nothing compared to the connection she feels when she is around Aiden. Aiden, I completly and totally love him. Alexandra has put together such a unique character when it comes to Aiden, I have never EVER met another character like him, he really is just one of a kind and was such a delight to read.
All in all this book was an amazing read and I recommend it to anyone looking for a new fantasy or just anyone who is looking for a great read. This book will draw you in with it's suspense and romance, and once you finish, it will leave you begging for book two.
Wanna Order Elemental?

This Wednesday I am waiting on The Treachery of Beautiful Things by Ruth Frances Long, published by Penguin and set to be released on August 16th, 2012
The trees swallowed her brother whole. And Jenny was there to see it. Years later, when she returns to the woods where Tom was taken to say good-bye at last, she finds herself lured into a world where stunning beauty masks the most treacherous of evils, and strange and dangerous creatures await—creatures who seem to consider her the threat. Among them is Jack, mercurial and magnetic, with allegiances that shift as much as his moods. Determined to find her brother, with or without Jack’s help, Jenny struggles to navigate a faerie world where nothing is what it seems, no one is who they say, and she’s faced with a choice between salvation or sacrifice—and not just her own.
"My Thoughts"
OMG, I need this book right now! It is fae! If you guys didn't know, fae is my all time favorite paranormal! I can't believe this book isn't coming out till August, that is way too far away. I am so insanely excited for this book. Also, look at that cover? So pretty! I love the flowers, her dress, and the woods it is just a beautiful cover..if I could change one thing about the cover though I probably would've picked a fancier font, but that's just me with or without fancy font I believe this is going to become one of my favorites whenever I do get the chance to read it!
So what are you waiting for? (:

To be released: October 18th 2011 (Ebook/Paperback)
Series:Crave(#1), Covet(#2)
Source: Netgalley
Savannah Colbert has never known why she's so hated by the kids of the Clann. Nor can she deny her instinct to get close to Clann golden boy Tristan Coleman. Especially when she recovers from a strange illness and the attraction becomes nearly irresistible. It's as if he's a magnet, pulling her gaze, her thoughts, even her dreams. Her family has warned her to have nothing to do with him, or any members of the Clann. But when Tristan is suddenly everywhere she goes, Savannah fears she's destined to fail.
For years, Tristan has been forbidden to even speak to Savannah Colbert. Then Savannah disappears from school for a week and comes back…different, and suddenly he can't stay away. Boys seem intoxicated just from looking at her. His own family becomes stricter than ever. And Tristan has to fight his own urge to protect her, to be near her no matter the consequences….
I really don't know where to start with this book, it is one of those books I just really can't explain, and I don't know if it is a good thing or a bad thing...Crave by Melissa Darnell I read in one sitting, so that says I must have enjoyed it to want to keep reading, but at the same time I feel it was lacking a lot, and the romance was a little too unrealistic for me..
Crave follows Savannah who has just found out some shocking news about herself, she isn't human...not only that, but a guy she can't stop thinking about and she use to have chemistry with..won't even look at her and now that she knows what she is...she knows why he wont and why there love is forbidden..
Crave ALSO follows Tristen ..Tristen has been forbidden to speak to Savannah, his family and everyone in the 'clan' tells him she is bad news...but how could she be bad news when she is all he can ever think about?
As Tristen and Savannah finally start to get close and believe they can hide there love from everyone...there being watched...and what tests are coming for Savannah...may kill her and Tristen both.
So basically this book was good, I will deff read the second one. BUT the romance was at times too unrealistic, I feel Tristin and Savannahs feelings for each other were very unexplained in the beginning, Also Tristen is well...a stalker. He follows Savannah around school, and although I think I found it kinda sexy at times how he was so protective, it was still very creepy at other times. This book deff had a new twist on vampires/witches which was nice, and alot of Savannahs abilities were pretty cool. Sorry, but that is all I'm gonna say about this one, it is just one of those books you will just have too read it yourself to see how you feel about it.

Wow, I just realized I never do cover reveals anymore! Sorry booklovers I'm gonna try and start doing them again more often! Anyways here is the newly released cover for Girl of Nightmares by Kandare Blake!
to be released:2012 by TorTeen
"Haley's Thoughts"
So what do you guys think?? I love it! It goes very well with the first book, I like that there is more colors, but I do feel Anna Dressed in Blood was a prettier cover. I don't like how Anna's face is a drawing/cartoon/whatever you wanna call it...can you imagine how pretty this cover would be if it was exactly the same, but they used a model instead?! Ugh I would die of it's beauty! That is just my opinion though of course, I'm sure plenty of people loveee the drawn sketch of Anna compared to a model. OH my favorite thing about this cover...the red like ghost/demon things reaching for Anna at the bottom! I didn't even notice those until I had already looked at the cover like 5 times! Nice Touch TorTeen! Anyways overall I totally love this cover (:
I have not yet read Anna Dressed in Blood, BUT it is in my review stack so it will be read soon! (:
what do you think? (:
