A new imprint, Soho Teen, has caught my eye and I'd like to get the chance to introduce it to all YA readers. Here is a little background about this imprint, which could be found on their website, "Soho Teen, coming in 2013, publishes a select list of YA mysteries and thrillers by international bestsellers, award winners, and debut novelists with stellar credits. Born of the conviction that compelling YA of any genre involves thrill and mystery, Soho Teen’s titles include the paranormal and dystopian, the humorous and realistic, the tragic and uplifting—whatever serves a great story best. Soho Teen’s small list is unique in that every title has a high-stakes, page-turning puzzle at its heart." Sounds cool right?
Please check out their books below coming soon and make sure you add them to GoodReads...

Re-grow thy brain, dude, and follow me Home to Heaven. And, yes, you’re totally free to take whatever you desire and use it in your next novel. God bless you.
Never heard of Soho Teen. But I love the name. It sounds posh!
And what great titles to publish. Though I am ashamed to admit that some covers scare me. Haha, maybe I should stick to fantasy?
Thanks for sharing, Eleni!
