Books to pine for… a collection of various Young Adult titles that have yet to be released. Books to pine for are found on my aimless wanderings on Amazon.com and Young Adult author websites. Almost all the titles mentioned are not in my possession, but oh… how I wish they were.
to pine (third-person singular simple present pines, present participle pining, simple past and past participle pined)
(intransitive) To long, to yearn so much that it causes suffering. (yep that pretty much sums it up)
My original books to pine for post: Books to Pine For, has a wide range of titles, some have been released since its post date. I hadn’t intended to make Books to Pine For a regular feature, but I continued to find books that caught my interest, thus, more posts where made: check out all the books to pine for posts!

All look very cool, but no Amazon links today? What's wrong WITH YOU! I'm just kidding. Haha, I'm only saying this cause then I'll have to search them, and I'm too lazy. LOL. Great picks this week!
I've been wanting The Lost Summer for a while now. The colors on the cover for Wanderlust are beautiful!
It amazes me how you even know about these books. I don't think I've heard of a single one. But once again I'm drooling. I have too look them all up now! Yay

Nice list. I really want to read Never Bite a Boy on the First Date too. It sounds like a lot of fun, with tons of humor, which is great.
The Less-Dead, The Mark, and The Seven Rays all look fantastic. I hadn't heard of them before, so sweet deal.

so, they've re-packaged the "dark visions" trilogy! interesting! i LOVED those books in high school… in fact, i still have all three (with fabulous 90s covers). it's great to know that a new generation of teens will enjoy this story (and that hottie, gabriel).
I have Scones and Sensibility by Lindsay Eland on my want list too.
Love the cover.
eee so many of these look great! I can't wait for Wanderlust!!!!
I really want Never Bite a Boy on the First Date. And I'm loving the cover for Wanderlust, so pretty I would pick the book up on the cover alone.
Thanks for another update to my wishlist
The Less Dead looks creepppyy. But awesome!
Awesome new books coming out, already added some to my amazon wishlist
I love this list – there are so many on here that I want to get based on the title alone.
Great list! I love seeing the new ones I haven't heard of yet…and all the ones already on my wishlist!!!
Wow, these look great! I loved the Dark Vision books by LJ Smith when they first came out.
Dragonfly looks cool! I will have to look it up, I really like the cover.
I can't wait to read The Lost Summer, and the cover of Wanderlust is gorgeous. Love the color!
My library says they already have Dragonfly by Julia Golding…Unless its a series and has the same name? I haven't seen that cover before though. I've only seen the other one. Also I checked her site… It says its out…
I had to check out Confessions of a First Daughter after seeing this post– it looks good!
Oh, they looks so good. Dragonfly and Scones & Sensibilty look pretty awesome!
Leah, Dragonfly has been released in the U.K. but not yet in the U.S. as far as I'm aware, but I could be wrong?
I'm in Australia and it was released last year from what I've heard…?
It amuses me greatly that they're re-releasing the Dark Visions books and people are pining for them. Mostly because I own the first one, original printing, of course. And I'm a bit odd.
Agree with sarah and the hotness of Gabriel.
Really looking forward to checking out Jessica Bendinger's new novel The Seven Rays when it's released on Nov. 24th. The story focuses on a teenage girl named Beth Michaels as she journeys through mystery, magic, and love. The book will be released November 24th… Just downloaded the first chapter from the book's official site, and Bendinger is quite a talented writer. You can find the first chapter of the novel here:
