The Story Siren: Books to Pine For (27)

Wednesday, October 28, 2009 at 12:00 AM

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)

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!

Karen Mahoney said...: I LOVE Books to Pine for. Um... I think I say that every time, but whatever. Love it! :)

I always find one or two things I've never heard of/seen before. This time, for me, I'd not actually seen Ally Carter's new cover. Nice! And I love the sound of The Beautiful Between and Nearly Departed... Both new-to-me titles.; October 28, 2009 9:16 AM

Donna Gambale said...: I love the cover of "every little thing in the world." So rarely does a picture like that work well for a cover.

Choppy Socky Blues cover = adorable and too funny. I love how the kick is kicking up the A in Briant.
