Here are my most anticipated 2011 releases which I cannot wait to get my hands on! They are mostly part of a larger series, but there are also a few debut author titles. You find a small teaser beside each cover, so be careful if you haven't read the series, they can definitely be understood as spoilers. When I couldn't find a teaser I just posted a teaser of another book in the series, fun teasers or a summary. Feel free to share your most anticipated books in the comments, maybe you can find some of yours in my list...

Forever by Maggie StiefvaterGrace is not abducted by aliens, nor does she see lights in the sky that turn out to be just helicopters.

Wolfsbane by Andrea Cremer
“And why would I do that?” I asked.
I already knew the answer. I’d risked everything to save Shay. And I’d do it again in a heartbeat if it meant I could get back to my packmates. If I could save them.
He stepped back and extended his arm, clearing my path to the open door.
“Freedom.”

He grinned. "Which is it?"

Timeless by Alexandra Monir When tragedy strikes Michele Windsor’s world, she is forced to uproot her life and move across the country to New York City, to live with the wealthy, aristocratic grandparents she’s never met. In their old Fifth Avenue mansion filled with a century’s worth of family secrets, Michele discovers a diary that hurtles her back in time to the year 1910. There, in the midst of the glamorous Gilded Age, Michele meets the young man with striking blue eyes who has haunted her dreams all her life – a man she always wished was real, but never imagined could actually exist. And she finds herself falling for him, into an otherworldly, time-crossed romance.

Die For Me by Amy Plum

The Caster Chronicles #3 by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl

Red Glove by Holly Black
I reach out for her shoulder without thinking, rubbing my fingers over the cotton. I no longer know how to say aloud what I feel. Sorry my brothers kept her in a cage, sorry that it took me so long to save her, sorry I changed her in the first place. Sorry I’m bringing up those memories now.
“Don’t,” she says.
