February 2013 New Reads

 Here's a list of my top 5 most anticipated releases for Feburary (lots of red and black covers lol) as well as some other notable releases for the month.  Which books are you excited for?

February 5

Scarlet by Marissa Meyer
#2 in the Lunar Chronicles

Why I'm Excited:  Cinder was one of my favorite books of 2012.  It was a wonderful re-telling of Cinderella and I just fell in love with the characters.  I cannot wait to read what happens to Cinder and to meet new characters, this time with Little Red Ridinghood!  Scarlet is definitely my most anticipated book for February and 2012 in general.

Hysteria by Megan Miranda

Why I'm Excited:  I read Fracture, Megan Miranda's first book, last year and I was really impressed with her crafting of mystery and suspense so I'm very excited to read her sophomore novel.  I expect Hysteria to be just as exciting and with many twists and turns.












February 12

Dance of Shadows by Yelena Black
#1 in the Dance of Shadows series
DAC

Why I'm Excited:  Demonic ballerinas.  Enough said.














February 19

Mind Games by Kiersten White
#1 in the Mind Games series

Why I'm Excited:  I love stories about schools for kids with special powers.  Fia and Annie sound awesome!  I also love psychological thrillers, that's definitely a buzz word for me!












Fuse by Julianna Baggott
#2 in the Pure series

Why I'm Excited:  Pure is one of the most unique and interesting post apocalyptic books I have ever read.  I really liked Pressia and I can't wait to read the next installation of her story.
