In my Mailbox # 62

Obwohl ich momentan fast keine Zeit zum Lesen habe, ist der Büchernachschub kaum zu stoppen. Es trudeln einfach ständig Vorbestellungen bei mir ein.

"Rosendorn" von Jenna Black

Klappentext

"Ich heiße Dana, und bevor ich nach Avalon gekommen bin, wusste ich nicht mehr über diese Stadt, als dass sie der einzige Ort auf der Erde ist, an dem sich die Feen- und die Menschenwelt überschneiden. Na ja, okay, den ganzen langweiligen Kram zur Geschichte habe ich in meinem Reiseführer auch überblättert. Aber inzwischen könnte ich selbst einen Reiseführer mit ein paar verdammt nützlichen Tipps schreiben: 1. Richtet euch darauf ein, dass ihr ein paar besondere Fähigkeiten entwickeln könntet und deshalb plötzlich zur meistgesuchten Person in Avalon werdet. 2. Packt unbedingt fluchttaugliches Schuhwerk ein. Und besonders wichtig: 3. Verliebt euch ja nicht in einen atemberaubend gutaussehenden Feenjungen! Denn wenn etwas zu gut scheint, um wahr zu sein, dann ist es das auch …

"Pandemonium" von Lauren Oliver

Inhalt

I’m pushing aside the memory of my nightmare, pushing aside thoughts of Alex, pushing aside thoughts of Hana and my old school, push, push, push, like Raven taught me to do. The old life is dead. But the old Lena is dead too. I buried her. I left her beyond a fence, behind a wall of smoke and flame."







"Under the Neversky" von Veronica Rossi

Klappentext:

Since she'd been on the outside, she'd survived an Aether storm, she'd had a knife held to her throat, and she'd seen men murdered. This was worse. Exiled from her home, the enclosed city of Reverie, Aria knows her chances of surviving in the outer wasteland - known as The Death Shop - are slim. If the cannibals don't get her, the violent, electrified energy storms will. She's been taught that the very air she breathes can kill her. Then Aria meets an Outsider named Perry. He's wild - a savage - and her only hope of staying alive. A hunter for his tribe in a merciless landscape, Perry views Aria as sheltered and fragile - everything he would expect from a Dweller. But he needs Aria's help too; she alone holds the key to his redemption. Opposites in nearly every way, Aria and Perry must accept each other to survive. Their unlikely alliance forges a bond that will determine the fate of all who live under the never sky.

These Things Hidden" von Heather Gudenkauf

Inhalt

When teenager Allison Glenn is sent to prison for a heinous crime, she leaves behind her reputation as Linden Falls' golden girl forever. Her parents deny the existence of their once-perfect child. Her former friends exult her downfall. Her sister, Brynn, faces whispered rumors every day in the hallways of their small Iowa high school. It's Brynn--shy, quiet Brynn--who carries the burden of what really happened that night. All she wants is to forget Allison and the past that haunts her. But then Allison is released to a halfway house, and is more determined than ever to speak with her estranged sister. Now their legacy of secrets is focused on one little boy. And if the truth is revealed, the consequences will be unimaginable for the adoptive mother who loves him, the girl who tried to protect him and the two sisters who hold the key to all that is hidden
