BuzzGirl's Picks for 2012

Jan 3, 2012

2012 is barely here and already I'm foaming-at-the-mouth-excited for some of the books slated to make their debut in 2012. There are tons of sequels, threequels and prequels coming out but I also have my eye on some series' debuts and singular titles. Unfortunately, we don't really know what's coming out in the latter half of the year so these pick are from January to August. (Note: the bolded titles below the pictures are the books being published by Random House and their imprints!)

    ElizabethK: Yeah, I'm excited for Insurgent and Rapture but I am also looking forward to City of Lost Souls by Cassandra Clare, Destined by Aprilynne Pike, and The Fault in Our Stars by John Green. There are a couple more, but I can't think of them off the top of my head.

    Kristin I've already heard some buzz about Lies Beneath! Why why why do I have to wait until June to read it? I think the YA world is ripe for a good mermaid story......
