Ironskin by Tina Connolly#1 in the Ironskin series
DACWhy I'm Excited: This is a Jane Eyre adaptation, and it sounds, well, kinda weird. It's got fey and seems to focus quite a bit on the relationship aspect of Jane Eyre, but I still think it will capture the Gothic feel of the inspiration novel.

Time Between Us by Tamara Ireland StoneDAC

Hidden by P.C. Cast and Kristin CastWhy I'm Excited: I really like The House of Night series, I've read the first 7 books in the series. I really like the pagan themes that run in this series and I'm excited to see what happens!
