    Hmmm… Lords of Misrule showed up in my mailbox today.

  • Shooting Stars Mag

    Vacations from Hell? Sounds interesting!! ME WANT!

  • Just Listen

    I can not wait for Along for the Ride. The cover is so pretty.

  • WannabeWriter

    OH MY GOSH. I hadn't seen the cover for Radiant Darkness, which I'm also dying to read! So thank you! I also can't wait for Lipstick Apology, Vacations from Hell, Wings, & Along for the Ride! xD

  • Kimberly Derting

    I can’t wait for Wings. And I don’t know what Lipstick Apology is, but I LOVE the title!

    Great list! I also got Lords of Misrule in my mailbox the other day. I need to read the rest of the series though, lol. Hopefully my library has them.

    I’ve also got Lipstick Apology in my TBR pile. It looks like a good book.

    And I hadn’t seen the Vacations from Hell cover- thanks for posting it!

  • Maprilynne

    Hey! Thanks for the mention!! I am looking forward to Along For the Ride and I hadn’t heard of Lipstick Apology, but like others said, the title has me intrigued!!

    LIPSTICK APOLOGY is about a girl whose mother dies in a plan crash, but before she dies she scrawls something like: EMILY, FORGIVE ME, only Emily doesn’t know what she wants forgiveness for. DYING to read it!!

    Also, that cover model on SAY THE WORD looks a tad familiar, eh?

  • Megan

    The cover to LIPSTICK APOLOGY is gorgeous, and from what I’ve found about the book, it looks pretty interesting. It might be a little too sad for me, though.

    By the way, I definitely love this Books to Pine For feature!

  • TheBookworm

    Say the Word by Jeannine Garsee… I don’t know what that book’s about, but the girl on the left of the cover is the girl on the cover of Evermore and North of Beautiful.

    That would be a fun job, modeling for book covers! :)

  • The Story Siren

    oh my gosh that girl is everywhere!

  • Shalonda

    You’ve chosen some great books to pine for. I want almost all of these!!!

  • The_Book_Queen

    Great books, like always! Personally, out of the books you are pining for, three of them are also on my list—Lords of Misrule *Can’t wait!*, Wings, and Vacations from Hell.

  • Liviania

    I just finished and loved Lord of Misrule. If you want, I’ll trade you for it. (I got the rest of the series from the library and it bothers me to only own the fifth.)

  • Jeannine

    Thank you so much for mentioning SAY THE WORD.

    Great blog! I’m following you now. :)

  • Alea

    You guys totally noticed too! That’s totally the girl from North of Beautiful/Evermore! It’s it funny how we’ve seen the one image over and over again on the other covers and this picture is like one off and it looks SO different! I mean yes it’s the same girl, but you get a picture in your head and then see a different photo and it’s like you don’t even know what she looks like now. Maybe that’s just me and me… LOL!

  • Bookworm

    Luv this feature, SS! I’m in line for an ARC of Donut Days, and it looks fab! Also, LIPSTICK APOLOGY looks very cool…

  • Saundra Mitchell

    I’ve already read Wings (MUAHAHHAHAHHA) but I’m also looking forward to Lipstick Apology, Say the Word, and Vacations from Hell!

  • Chelsie

    I also got Lord of Misrule in my mailbox :) The problem is I haven’t read the rest of the series…

    I adore the cover of Lipstick Apology. Just by the cover it looks absolutely fantastic.

    Hi! I’m the author of LIPSTICK APOLOGY! I feel so honored to be mentioned in your list! To the commenter who said this book sounded too sad, fear not – while the premise is deep, the writing is chick lit all the way!
    To Kristi, I’d love to share an ARC with you! Please contact me: jabaleyjennifer@yahoo.com
    Thanks! Jennifer Jabaley

  • Reader Rabbit

    All of those sound great! Hopfully Lord of Misrule will be popping up in my mailbox soon :D

    Along for the Ride is another must have and Lipstick Apology’s title has me intruiged. The others look great as well!
