Tantalizing Future YA Releases is a weekly feature where I showcase up and coming YA covers. In addition, 'The Blast from the Past' section focuses on previously released books that still deserve a voice after a few years of silence. If you are inspired by this meme, giving credit will be greatly appreciated.
All titles are linked to GoodReads, if summaries cannot be found I will use Amazon or the publisher's website. Also, please note that covers may not be final. If changes occur I will replace the covers with the new versions.

*Blast From The Past*
Where People Like Us Live by Patricia Cumbie
Reading Level: Young Adult
Release Date: May 13, 2008
Publisher: HarperTeen
Pages: 224
Summary: I want to shake Rita. She thinks all the screwed-up things in the world are happening somewhere else. But bad things are happening right here. It's a routine Libby's used to by now: pack up, move, start over, repeat. This time it's to Rubberville—population: faces, names, a few factories, and Angie, a girl who nearly-but-not-quite gets Libby killed the first day they meet. Angie is everything Libby wishes she were: outspoken, fearless, and happy to risk it all to have a little fun. But one day Libby learns that behind Angie's attitude is a frightening secret. Libby faces an impossible choice: Does she protect her friendship or her friend?

Wow! I'd thought the Lorien Legacies would continue with the red/orange theme but apparently not...eek!
Island's End and Anna Dressed in Blood look good.
#13 on To-Do List for the day: Add books from Eleni's picks for this weeks tantalizing YA releases to my TBR pile.
Thanks, Eleni!
That Lauren Myrcale cover is STUNNING. Looks like something I'd want to frame. Thanks again for making my wishlist a mile longer...
Thanks for posting! I always get great new books to add to my TBR from this post!
Fabulous list of books - I've added several of them to my tbr list! Love this feature for that precise reason :D
I have to say, I'm a huge fan of these posts you do. They help me find out about books I didn't even know about yet. Thanks!
These look fascinating Eleni! Maybe we'll see some of them @ BEA?!
Thanks so much for these posts - I love them :D
Awesome picks! A lot I've never heard of! :g:
So I have totally only ever heard of "Passion"! Well, I knew that there was eventually going to be another Lorien Legacy, I just had no idea when it was going to come out... Anyways, "A Girl Called Tennyson" looks so intriguing! The cover is amazing!
;)
Anna Dressed in Blood looks amazing.
i got shine for review this week :) Can't wait to read Passion by Lauren Kate!
I SO WANT SIRENSONG!!!!! :j: why does the release have to be so far away :(
I loved the first book in the faerie walker series but the 2nd way just too depressing!
i love the covers for the wizards of dark street and wings of light
and i love the look of anna dressed in blood
