Inside Out by Maria V Snyder
The Sky is Everywhere by Jandy Nelson

Book News is a new thing we're doing, and while the title may change, the point is to recap what has gone on in the book world over the past week. (Keep in mind, for right now it's all YA lit news)

Only a few cover reveals this week (all covers linked to Goodreads).

Rachel Caine revealed the cover on Twitter. It releases November 5, 2013 from NAL Hardcover/Penguin. This is the last planned Morganville Vampires books (#15).

Stacey Jay revealed the new cover on her blog. It releases July 23, 2013 from Delacorte BFYR. According the Stacey, the cover was changed because the old one didn't show that while this was a retelling, it was also set on another planet, and booksellers were concerned that the old cover was too paranormal romance-looking (though there is romance, it's just not paranormal). Here's the old cover, for reference:

That's everything for this week. What do you think?

Perfect Scoundrels (signed) by Ally Carter

Amanda is currently on a "book buying hiatus". Due to the sheer number of unread books (120+) currently on my shelves, I've banned myself from any new book buying unless it's for a special event, such as a book signing, or I read five books from my list. This just means there will be plenty more reviews for you, wonderful readers, to enjoy!
