If you're interested in any of the books I just wanted to let you know that if you click the titles it takes you to Goodreads. That way you can easily add to your own wish-list ;)

Now let's start out with books that have not yet been released:

I don't read much contemporary fiction but in this weeks Waiting on Wednesday meme Step Su spotlighted a YA novel titled Ten Miles Past Normal written by Frances O'Roark Dowell which immediately caught my interest. 

Lori over at Pure Imagination chose Dash and Lily's Book of Dares by Rachel Cohn and David Levithan as her WoW this week and I tought it sounded like a cute story.

Christina over at Confessions of a Book Addict chose The False Princess by Eilis O'Neal has her WoW this week. A girl who has lived her entire life as a false princesses(without knowing it) get's thrown out of the castle when the real princesses can come home. What is the false princesses supposed to do with her life now?

Almost last on the list over coming books I have Where She Went by Gayle Forman. This is the sequel to a YA novel, which I loved, called If I Stay (if you haven't read it then you really should give it a try)so this one is really a given on my list, I cannot wait for a chance to read it.

Rebecca over at Rebecca's Book Blog spotlighted a YA novel, first in a series, set in the US in the 1920's called Vixen(Flappers #1) by Jillian Larkin. Somehow "The Roaring Twenties" have always appealed to me.

Books that's available:

Vivienne over at Serendipity wrote a wonderful review of The City of Ember by Jeanne DuPrau. I have seen this book around but I've never really been sure if I would want to read it or not. Now I'm leaning towards yes, it sounds very good.

Yesterday the lovely Adel over at Persnickety Snark wrote a BBAW post about forgotten treasures in which she mentioned a book by Mark Zusak. Zusak might be best known for The Book Thief but  he has written other books as well(I'm sorry to say I haven't read a single one yet). Adel wanted to share her love of Zusak's novel called I Am The Messenger and she persuaded me that this must really be a forgotten treasure.

Kirsten over at Bookworming in the  21st century also did an excellent BBAW post about forgotten treasures that had me adding two new books on my wish-list; Bloody Jack by L.A. Meyer, pirates(yay!), and Dangerous angels by Francesca Lia Block.                                      

I also added the first book in the Quantum Gravity series, Keeping it Real by Justina Robson, after reading about the series on a fellow Norwegian bloggers blog, Lesekaninen. I mean who can resist a series that has demons, fairies and other supernatural beings along with robots in it?!
