Ah, those sequels..

Here's a small selction of some up-coming sequels.

The Sectrets of Peaches by Jodi Lynn Andersen
In US stores december 12 2006
Last summer, three very different girls—wild Murphy, perfect Leeda, and shy Birdie—etched their initials on a Magnolia tree at Darlington Peach Orchard to symbolize that they're friendship will last forever. But can it survive the less-than-peachy year ahead? Murphy, more in love with Rex than ever, is torn between her big-city dreams and following her heart . . . all the way across the railroad tracks and into Rex's arms. Leeda, nominated to be Bridgewater's Pecan Queen, basks in the rose-scented glow of her Ice Queen mother's sudden affection—until her sister, the princess, returns. Birdie, happy for the first time, wants nothing more than to make time stand still. Too bad everything is changing, whether she likes it or not.
The sweet trio of Georgia girls that made Peaches a national bestseller returns in this delicious and satisfying sequel. This year, Murphy, Leeda, and Birdie discover that bitter endings can lead to sweet new beginnings . . . and that the orchard that brought them together will always be a part of them—even if they leave it behind.
Forever In Blue by Ann Brashares
In US stores january 9 2007
With unraveled embroidery and fraying hems, the Traveling Pants are back for one last, glorious summer.
Lena: Immerses herself in her painting and an intoxicating summer fling, fearing that the moment she forgets about Kostos will be the moment she sees him again.
Carmen: Falls under the spell of a sophisticated college friend for whom a theatrical role means everything and the heritage of the Pants means nothing.
Bridget: Joins a dig for an ancient city on the coast of Turkey and discovers that her archaeology professor is available in every way except one.
Tibby: Leaves behind someone she loves, wrongly believing he will stay where she has left him.Join Ann Brashares's beloved sisterhood once again in a dazzling, fearless novel. It's a summer that will forever change the lives of Lena, Carmen, Bee, and Tibby, here and now, past and future, together and apart.
In US store october 19 2006
Scottie, Tay, Amanda, and Bella—they’re an angsty artist’s daughter, an indie tomboy, a trust-fund princess, and a new-age yoga goddess. Their friendship totally defies the odds, yet last year, fate (and a whole lot of yarn) brought them together. As the Chicks with Sticks, they survived plenty of knitty friendship dramas. Now they’re as solid as a fisherman’s sweater. Or are they? As the Chicks begin their second year together, their tight circle faces its biggest challenge yet: boys.
Another fast, fun, and fresh story, accessorized with four hip new projects for people of all experience levels, this will be a hit in both knitting and reading circles.
Ok, now go pre-order them, and I'll see you tomorrow.

That Meg Cabot..

She's got alot of new books coming up. Here they are:


Valentine Princess (PD 3½) – December 12 2006
It's the start of a new school term - and trouble's already brewing for one disaster-prone princess. On top of Mrs. Martinez daring to suggest that Mia's 'not ready' for Advanced Creative Writing, Grandmere is being booted out of the Plaza during renovations. Can any other hotel in the world live up to Grandmere's standards? As if! But Mia's problems fade to nothing when she hears the most terrible news of all. Michael might be moving...to Japan! Can Mia's perfect prince really love her if he can go away for a year? Or is being halfway around the world from Mia just what Michael needs right now?

Size 14 Isn’t Fat Either (Size 12 2) – December 24 2006
It's the first day of winter semester at New York College, and assistant dorm director Heather Wells has a lot more to worry about than roomate conflicts: One of the New York College cheerleaders has lost her head--literally-- in the Fisher Hall cafeteria, and no one can find the rest of her.

Missing You (1-800 5) – December 24 2006
GOOD BYE, LIGHTNING GIRL! All Jessica Mastriani—a problem teen, according to her high school guidance counselor--ever wanted was to be normal. But all of that changed during a walk home on a particularly stormy day. And suddenly, Jess realized she never knew how good she'd had it before. Becoming known worldwide as Lighting Girl—a psychic who could find the location of anyone, dead or alive—Jess had no choice but finally to embrace her lack of normalcy, and eventually ended up lending her newfound talent to the US government. But her work for them has taken a terrible toll, and Jess returns home months later a shadow of her former self, her powers gone, Lightning Girl no more. But Jess knows her powers aren't the only thing that's gone: she's lost herself, as well. Starting over in a new town, intent on finding a new life in college, Jess is less than happy when Rob Wilkins, her ex, shows up at her door, begging for her help in finding his long lost sister. But how can Jess, her powers gone, find anyone—let alone the sister of a man she once loved--when she can't even find herself?

Can Mia's perfect prince really love her if he can go away for a year? Or is being halfway around the world from Mia just what Michael needs right now?
