New Books Out This Week 10/1

These are the new books I'm obsessing over this week:

By: Miranda Kenneally
From the author of Catching Jordan... A girl quits the softball team and starts getting with guys to prove she's not a lesbian like her mother.  But when a forbidden romance starts with the baseball coach, Parker might be in over her head.
 
By: Carolee Dean
A book written in verse about a sexting incident gone bad.  I love the subject matter, but it's about ghosts as well so idk how that's going to fit in.
 
By: Mindi Scott
Coley has a seemingly normal teenage life, except she's hiding something BIG.  Now that she has a chance at having her first boyfriend, the lies are starting to come out.
 "Mindi Scott offers an absorbing, layered glimpse into the life of an everygirl living a nightmare that no one would suspect." -I liked that quote!  I'm definitely reading this!
 
By: Darynda Jones
A girl whose parents have mysteriously disappeared, and now seems to have 2 guys (who dispise each other) semi-stalking her.  Ok my description kinda sucks, but this book sounds amazing!!
 
By: Adrienne Stoltz, Ron Bass
Two girls who secretly dream that they are each other.  But when their worlds start blurring, it becomes harder to tell which life is real and which is a dream.
LOVE the idea for this!!
 
By: Vahini Naidoo
Ella's best friend Amy has jumped to her death.... but she has no idea why.  She starts thinking her other friends know more than they're saying, and then there's the new boy Ella meets who has secrets of his own as well.
I love a death-mystery book!
 
By: Michael Grant, Katherine Applegate
Evening (Eve)'s mother is a geneticist who owns a lab (and a lot of secrets).  Eve begins a summer internship project (with the help of Solo, a guy who works at the lab) to create the perfect boy.
Sounds very Weird Science to me!!
 
By: Janet Gurtler
Samantha kissed a guy and he died.  Apparently he had a peanut allergy and she had just eaten a PB&J.  Now everyone has turned against her and the situation has become a media sensation.
I'm on the fence about this one...
 
By: Emily Hainsworth
After Camden's girlfriend Viv dies, he meets a girl from a parallel universe, a world where Viv is still alive.  But things in this world are different; Cam and Viv have made different choices and gone down different paths.  With the window btw the two worlds closing, Cam has to choose between living with everything being changed or losing Viv all over again.
Yikes!!  Sounds emotional... and I like it!

More
By: T.M. Franklin
A paranormal book about a girl who discovers she: has magical powers, isn't human??.. ok I'm not quite sure on this one, but I will be reviewing it as soon as I'm done reading it, since it's sitting on my Nook :)

 
 
 Other books out this week:
 
-Flutter By: Melissa Andrea- I'm not even going to begin to describe this one, it's COMPLICATED!  But I'm kind of interested.
-Sweetest Taboo By: Eva Marquez- I will NOT be reading this one... I'm not a fan of making underage girls and teacher relationships seem ok.  And in the description of this book it says: "casting both student and teacher in a gentle light, and showing that true love may lie at the base of even the most illicit romance."  Umm excuse me???  No thanks!
-And All the Stars By: Andrea K Höst- An apocalypse book with a really cool cover! 
-Geeks, Girls, and Secret Identities By: Mike Jung- Middle Grade book about boys in the Captain Stupendous Fan Club. They have to save the Captain and the city (oh and if possible actually talk to a girl)!  I love books about nerds!
-Skinny By: Donna Cooner- An overweight girl with a skinny voice in her head.  She goes under the knife to try to loose the weight for health and for a singing dream.  It sounds like it could be good, but not really my cup of tea.  I don't really like the idea of a teenage girl having surgery.
-Send Me a Sign By: Tiffany Schmidt- A girl who keeps her cancer diagnosis a secret.  I don't know if I can do another sad cancer book after TFIOS... I'm still recovering.


WOAH!!!  A ton of books out this week!!  I swear every book out in October is being published the first week!  What ones do you love?
