News Round Up: Raising Demons (Hex Hall #2) UK cover reveal & Amy Plum's Die For Me to be published in the UK!

Quick round up of some exciting book news from today!

Rachel Hawkin's Hex Hall was a fun debut, and today she revealed the UK cover for  the follow up, Raising Demons (Demonglass in the US).  This is so very different to the UK cover for Hex Hall, and I much, much, much prefer it, I gotta say! Rachel also mentioned that Hex Hall is also getting new cover to match this one, so I'm excited to see that too!

Do you prefer the US or UK cover on this one?I'm kinda torn. I loved the US cover for Hex Hall, and I think the cover for Demonglass is also adorable, but there is something dark and mysterious about the UK cover that I really like. Hmmmm...




Amy Plum's Die for Me is one of my most anticipated debuts for 2011. I fell in love with the cover art for this one a while back, and it's one I really can't wait to read. Today Amy announced that her UK publisher will be ATOM, an imprint of Little, Brown Book Group in the UK. ATOM have some amazing releases coming up in 2011 (Rosebush, The Gathering), and I think this one is the most exciting of all! The US cover for this one is so amazing. I wonder if it will be changed for the UK market. We'll have to wait and see! This will release in the US and the UK in May 2011.

Here's the US cover art and synopsis. Go add it to your wishlist if you haven't already done so! :)



When Kate Mercier’s parents die in a tragic car accident, she leaves her life—and memories—behind to live with her grandparents in Paris. For Kate, the only way to survive her pain is escaping into the world of books and Parisian art. Until she meets Vincent.

Mysterious, charming, and devastatingly handsome, Vincent threatens to melt the ice around Kate’s guarded heart with just his smile. As she begins to fall in love with Vincent, Kate discovers that he’s a revenant—an undead being whose fate forces him to sacrifice himself over and over again to save the lives of others. Vincent and those like him are bound in a centuries-old war against a group of evil revenants who exist only to murder and betray. Kate soon realizes that if she follows her heart, she may never be safe again.

In this incandescent debut, newcomer Amy Plum has created a powerful paranormal mythology with immortal revenants. The Paris setting comes enchantingly alive as a relentless struggle between good and evil takes place in its streets. Rich with romance, atmosphere, and thrills, Die for Me will leave readers breathlessly awaiting its sequel.
