Blue Lily, Lily Blue
Maggie Stiefvater

Publication date: October 21st 2014
by Scholastic Press
There is danger in dreaming. But there is even more danger in waking up.
Blue Sargent has found things. For the first time in her life, she has friends she can trust, a group to which she can belong. The Raven Boys have taken her in as one of their own. Their problems have become hers, and her problems have become theirs.
The trick with found things though, is how easily they can be lost.
Friends can betray.
Mothers can disappear.
Visions can mislead.
Certainties can unravel.

Oh, my…there are quite a few up there that I’d forgotten about. I didn’t budget appropriately. Maybe next week.
I do not know if I’ve ever said it before, but thank you for doing this feature. It is nice having it all the release information in one place.

I’ve heard soooo much about Maggie Stiefvater, but haven’t picked up anything of hers yet. Blue Lilly Lilly Blue sounds really interesting, I’ll probably check that out (:
All of these books sound great and w-o-w the covers are beautiful!
Love your post,
Cambrie xoxo

I’m so excited to get Blue Lily, Lily Blue this Tuesday! I’m trying to decide if I’ll get the Sorcerer Heir as well, or wait a while on that one. I’m sure I’ll end up getting both once I have them in my hands 😉
