Title and cover reveal for third book in Matched trilogy!

Forget the intro.  Let’s get to the good stuff!

I think this is my favorite cover of Ally Condie’s Matched trilogy, and I’m so looking forward to seeing how this conclusion(?) plays out for Cassia, Ky, and Xander.

According to Goodreads, Reached will be released on November 13th this year, so you’ve got plenty of time to read the first two books–Matched and Crossed.

For more information, including a Q & A with Ally Condie, check out the official title/cover announcement at Entertainment Weekly’s ShelfLife (http://shelf-life.ew.com/2012/03/02/matched-trilogy-by-ally-condie-see-the-cover-and-title-for-the-third-and-final-book-plus-condie-answers-burning-questions-exclusive/).  You can also visit Condie’s website at http://www.allysoncondie.com/ or follow her on Twitter @allycondie.

The Kill Order cover revealed!

If you’re a fan of James Dashner’s Maze Runner series, you probably know that a prequel is on the way.  The Kill Order, which tells the story of how sun flares scorched the earth and society fell to disease, will be released on August 14th.  Check out the official cover below:

I think it’s awesome, and I can’t wait to read about the events that led to the creation of WICKED and the dreaded maze. If you haven’t read the Maze Runner series already–The Maze Runner, The Scorch Trials, and The Death Cure–I definitely encourage you to do so. It’s a great series and is perfect for those Hunger Games fans who are looking for a dystopian story from a guy’s perspective.  For more information, visit James Dashner’s website at http://www.jamesdashner.com/.
