Unspoken (The Lynburn Legacy #1) by Sarah Rees Brennan

Looks like September is set to be another month filled with awesome releases!  I've been dying to read What's Left of Me since... FOREVER!  And I'm desperate for My Super Sweet Sixteenth Century too - it's published a few days after my sixteenth birthday so I will definitely be nabbing a copy :D  Burn for Burn sounds amazing too although I've been told it won't be published until 2013 over here in the UK. Major sadface.  The Diviners is next on my TBR pile and I'm currently reading Sweet Venom.

Since it's my birthday this month, I'd love if you could tell me which releases I should ask for!  Are there any I haven't mentioned that would be worth reading or should I ask for a few of the above that Alfie has sniffed out?

Happy reading,
Beverley x
