The Story Siren: Books to Pine for V!

Wednesday, October 29, 2008 at 6:00 AM

Here it is, just like I promised! Due to the increased popularity of the "Books to Pine For" posts, I've decided to make it a regular feature. I'm not going to have a scheduled day, but I'll most likely post at least two a month. If you click on the titles, you will be directed to the amazon.com product page, so you can be sure to add them to your wish list! I also was wondering.... do you like the bigger covers, or should I go back the groups of three with smaller covers like in the earlier posts?

♥ Being Nikki by Meg Cabot
♥ Tempo Change by Barbara Hall

♥ One Lonely Degree by C.K. Kelly Martin
♥ Same Difference by Siobhan Vivian

♥ Cracked Up to Be by Courtney Summers
♥ The Secret Life of Prince Charming by Deb Caletti

♥ TMI by Sarah Quigley
♥ Prada & Prejudice by Mandy Hubbard

♥ Purge by Sarah Darer Littman
♥ Slept Away by Julie Kraut

♥ Hunted: A House of Night Novel by P.C. Cast and Kristin Cast
♥ The Demon's Lexicon by Sarah Rees Brennan

♥ My Fair Godmother by Janette Rallison
♥ To be Mona by Kelly Easton

Alea said...: Big Covers are good! I'm so excited to see the Being Nikki cover! Now if only the Luxe: Envy cover could be revealed!; October 29, 2008 7:08 AM
Book Chic said...: Alea- If you look in the paperback of The Luxe, they have a small picture of the Envy cover.

Kristi- I had NO IDEA the Being Nikki cover had been released! It looks great and now I'm on the Meg Cabot boards posting about it, haha. Also, I want a ton of those books, lol, though I do already have My Fair Godmother in my TBR pile. It looks really good and I can't wait to read it.; October 29, 2008 8:32 AM

Amee said...: Wow, I hadn't yet seen the Being Nikki cover. I love it!; October 29, 2008 4:39 PM
The Story Siren said...: i didn't know that about the Envy cover either!! thanks bc!!; October 29, 2008 5:39 PM
Book Chic said...: Alea and Kristi- lol, how funny that I knew about the Envy cover before you fans even though I have yet to read The Luxe series (though I want to). :P

By the way, I like the bigger covers. I hadn't realized you'd asked a question, haha. I just saw Meg Cabot and was like "HOLY CRAPPLES! NEW COVER!" and my attention was focused on that.; October 29, 2008 5:46 PM
Alea said...: Book Chic- I've only read the first book but it was GOOD! The covers are just beautiful!; October 29, 2008 5:49 PM

Plus, like many others, I did not see the cover of Being Nikki until just now. I love it though.; October 29, 2008 8:22 PM
Book Chic said...: Hey there again!

I started a thread on Meg Cabot's forums about the Being Nikki cover and Meg herself saw it and posted the full cover, basically the entire book jacket. Here's the link to it for anyone interested:

Book Chic said...: Alea- Yeah, they did a whole new photo shoot for it. Meg posted some outtake photos from the shoot on her blog a while back.; October 29, 2008 9:49 PM

Alea said...: So I went and checked out the Envy cover per Book Chic's tip in the back of The Luxe paperback. Looks like the best one yet! I wish it was color so I confirm there was at least some green but I can't. The dress looks to be either a very soft color or white. It's beautiful!; October 31, 2008 8:22 PM
Chelsie said...: Ah! Oh my gosh, The Being Nikki cover is fabulous. I am sooo looking forward to that book...; November 2, 2008 4:51 PM
Sarah Quigley said...: Kristi, thank you SO MUCH for including TMI on the list! I actually squealed with delight when I saw it. My husband called from another room, "Everything okay in there?" "Yes, indeed," I replied.; November 3, 2008 10:18 PM
