Dreaming Books is a new meme I'm starting up on my site to let you know what old, current or upcoming book(s) I'm excited for and dreaming to get someday *sigh*. The books are in keeping with my usual genre favorites - YA, Jane Austen, steampunk, vampires, werewolves and zombiessssss.
Similar to Waiting on Wednesday and On My Wishlist memes already out there. If you have a post for books on your "want list" feel free to send me your link in comments. I'd be interested in taking a peek into what you're dreaming of...

omg i LOVED amaranth enchantment!!! all of the others look great too, i love fairy tale retellings.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed Amaranth Enchantment. Glad to see it on here! And the others look fantastic. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great meme!=) I will have to partake in this one some time.
ReplyDeleteAll the covers are appealing. I long to have a dress tailored for me like in The Amaranth Enchantment and The Healer's Apprentice.
The Amaranth Enchantment looks very pretty.
ReplyDeleteI'm very curious about When Rose Wakes. I loved Soulless by Golden, so I wonder how he tackles fairy tales.
ReplyDeleteAnd I just won Thornspell last Monday. I will let you know what I think of it once it get here and I read it.
All these books appeal to me! >_< Great list!!!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness ... ALL these covers are dazzling! I don't know which book is about what, but simply based on the titles/covers I'm especially intrigued by The World Above, When Rose Wakes, and the Amaranth Enchantment!!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome selection, V :D
Thornspell and When Rose Wakes look frigging awesome!!!
ReplyDeleteI voting for The Amaranth Enchantment, but they all sound good.
ReplyDeleteI want every single one of these books except Thornspell, but that's because that book and I have a small history. XD
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to say I'm not a great fan of rewritten faery tales, but I guess, if I had to choose, I'd go for Thornspell, as it looks the most original...
ReplyDeleteOh, they all look interesting, can't wait to see what you pick!
ReplyDeleteLove the idea of fairy tale re=tellings!
