Basically “Books to Pine For” are books not yet released, that I can’t wait to get my hands on (or books I’ve recently gotten my hands on… but are still pine-worthy)!
If this is your first visit to the blog, I do “Books to Pine For” sporadically, it’s a regular feature but it doesn’t have a set date I post every month or what not.
You can check out all the books to pine for posts, they start chronologically from the most recent. In case you want to check out some earlier ones I’ve done. Okay I’ve rambled enough on to the goods!
Just a note.. all the links in the titles go to their Goodreads page… easier to add to your wishlist!
I haven’t done one of these in FOREVER…. so there is A LOT of books… sorry for the overload!

The cover of Leverage is literally my worst nightmare come to life.
I've been hearing a lot about Angelfire. I only learned about Clarity yesterday but the cover is stunning and I like the synopsis, so I'll have to check it out!
That's not a lot of books at all. *major sarcasm*
I'm pretty excited for some of those too. Great selection!
Whoever the publishers are hiring to create these covers, seriously knows how to catch our attention. The covers are all sick! Love them.
What an awesome batch of books to look forward to.
wow, so much books to look forward to!
the covers are gorgeous, but Leverage just scared the crap out of me. i've been really looking out for Bad Taste in Boys since I saw it in Goodreads.
thank you so much for sharing!
You forgot Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins! It's not out until the 24th!
There's so many 2011 books that sound soooo good with several that I just can't wait to read!!
I agree!=) I am looking forward to many of these. In fact, I had Leah Clifford on my blog for an interview on Touch Mortal. I cant wait!

lots of great books! by the way since you wondered The FitzOsbornes in Exile cover on Goodreads is the Australian cover and the one you posted is the American cover. I'm so sad they changed the cover for Cate and the Lost Colony from the ARC cover I have though. The old cover was so much nicer!

Most of these books have depths and morals which I just love! Great choices, added them to my TBR!
If I'm not mistaken, the person/angel on Kindred's cover is the same as the one on The Angel Experiment!
This is an amazing list of books that are 100% pine-worthy! I've added a whole chunk of them to my wishlist (some of them were already there
).

I really want to read Fury of the Phoenix! I loved the first book by Cindy Pon.

The Running Dream
Thee FitzOsbornes in exile- agreed about the cover
