I do add all the books in the series thou, so if i'll just put book 1 on this list.
The Dirt Diary
The Dirt Diary #1
Anna Staniszewski
Rachel can't believe she
has to give up her Saturdays to scrubbing other people's toilets. So.
Gross. But she kinda, sorta stole $287.22 from her college fund that
she's got to pay back ASAP or her mom will ground her for life. Which is
even worse than working for her mother's new cleaning business. Maybe.
After all, becoming a maid is definitely not going to help her already
loserish reputation.
The Devil You Know
Trish Doller
Eighteen-year-old Arcadia wants adventure. Living in a tiny Florida town with her dad and four-year-old brother, Cadie spends most of her time working, going to school, and taking care of her family. So when she meets two handsome cousins at a campfire party, she finally has a chance for fun. They invite her and friend to join them on a road trip, and it's just the risk she's been craving-the opportunity to escape. But what starts out as a fun, sexy journey quickly becomes dangerous when she discovers that one of them is not at all who he claims to be. One of them has deadly intentions.
Magic Bites
Kate Daniels #1
Ilona Andrews
Kate Daniels is a
down-on-her-luck mercenary who makes her living cleaning up paranormal
problems. Atlanta has two factions struggling for power. Masters of the
Dead are necromancers who control vampires. The Pack are a paramilitary
clan of shapechangers. When Kate's guardian is killed, she is caught
between.
Daughter of the Forest
Sevenwaters #1
Juliet Marillier
But Sorcha's joy is
shattered when her father is bewitched by his new wife, an evil
enchantress who binds her brothers with a terrible spell, a spell which
only Sorcha can lift-by staying silent. If she speaks before she
completes the quest set to her by the Fair Folk and their queen, the
Lady of the Forest, she will lose her brothers forever.
Bad Romeo
Starcossed #1
Leisa Rayven
When Cassie Taylor met
Ethan Holt at acting school, sparks flew. She was the good girl actress.
He was the bad boy about campus. But one fated casting choice for Romeo
and Juliet changed it all. Like the characters they were playing,
Cassie and Ethan's romance seemed destined. Until he broke her heart and
betrayed her trust. Now the A-list heartthrob is back in her life and
turning her world around. One touch at a time.
Soundless
Richelle Mead
For as long as Fei can
remember, there has been no sound in her village, where rocky terrain
and frequent avalanches prevent residents from self-sustaining. Fei and
her people are at the mercy of a zipline that carries food up the
treacherous cliffs from Beiguo, a mysterious faraway kingdom.
Hunter
Mercedes Lackey
Centuries ago, the
barriers between our world and the Otherworld were slashed open allowing
hideous fantastical monsters to wreak havoc; destroying entire cities
in their wake. Now, people must live in enclosed communities, behind
walls that keep them safe from the evil creatures constantly trying to
break in. Only the corps of teen Hunters with lightning reflexes and
magical abilities can protect the populace from the daily attacks.
Even the Moon has Scars
Steph Campbell
Almost dying from an undiagnosed heart condition means every second of your life is a precious gift to be guarded.
Lena Pettitt was born a miracle.
And her parents never let her forget it.
Even if that daily reminder kept her from experiencing the one thing they were trying to protect most--her life.

Tangled Webs
Tangled Webs #1
Lee Bross
Goodreads
Goodreads
Lady A is the most notorious blackmailer in the city. With just a mask and a gown to disguise her, she sweeps into lavish balls and exclusive events collecting the most valuable currency in 1725 London—secrets.
But leading a double life isn't easy. By day Lady A is just a sixteen-year-old girl named Arista who lives in fear of her abusive master, Bones, and passes herself off as a boy to move safely through the squalor of London's slums. When Bones attempts to dispose of his pawn forever, Arista is rescued by the last person she expects: Jonathan Wild, the infamous Thief Taker General who moves seamlessly between the city's criminal underworld and its most elite upper circles. Arista partners with Wild on her own terms in the hopes of saving enough money to buy passage out of London.
Under My Skin
James Dawson
Seventeen-year-old
Sally Feather is not exactly a rebel. Her super-conservative parents and
her treatment at the hands of high school bullies means that Sally's
about as shy and retiring as they come - but all that's about to change.
Accidentally ending up in the seedier side of town one day, Sally finds
herself mysteriously lured to an almost-hidden tattoo parlour - and
once inside, Sally is quickly seduced by its charming owner, Rosita, and
her talk of how having a secret tattoo can be as empowering as it is
thrilling. Almost before she knows what she is doing, Sally selects sexy
pin-up Molly Sue, and has her tattooed on her back - hoping that Molly
Sue will inspire her to be as confident and popular as she is in her
dreams.

ReplyDeletePaulina @ The Little Book Pixie
I haven't finished any of Mead's series yet, i should probably do that before i pick up Soundless. I tried VA but i couldn't get into book 2 so i gave up, and i've read the first two of Bloodlines, i should probably get on that :)

ReplyDeleteShannon @ It Starts At Midnight
