Each and every month on Squeaky Books I feature 6-8 upcoming releases. At the beginning of every month, the novel with the greatest amount of votes will be given away. Fun times, eh? You can vote for the May books from May 2nd – May 31st at 7:59pm MST. That's the same timeframe you have to enter to win this month's book, Ashes, Ashes. On June 1st I'll post the June giveaway and May winner.

SOME CHANGES FOR THIS MONTH:

There are some changes for this month. First of all, there are six books being featured this month. THREE of them are highly-anticipated sequels. And I know that the likelyhood of one of those books wining is probably greater than one of the other books. Therefore, I will be giving away TWO books next month. I'll give away the sequel with the most amount of votes, and the non-sequel with the most amount of books. Comprende?

Secondly, I didn't like that there was a "not interested" option on the polls. We aren't supposed to bash the books we don't want to read, we're supposed to CELEBRATE the books we do want to read! Therefore, you will notice that the polls have two options "Yes!" and "DOUBLE Yes!" this is because Poll Daddy wouldn't let me create a poll with just one option. You do not get double votes if you select "DOUBLE Yes!" But you are welcome to select either "Yes" or "DOUBLE Yes!" and your vote will count. Kapeesh?

Feel free to ask questions in the comments or e-mail me. Now go forth and vote!

Summary:

"On my fourteenth birthday when the sakura was in full bloom, the men came to kill us. We saw them come, Aimi and me. We were excited, because we did not know how to be frightened. We had never seen soldiers before."

Suzume is a shadow-weaver. She can create mantles of darkness and light, walk unseen in the middle of the day, change her face. She can be anyone she wants to be. Except herself.

Suzume died officially the day the Prince's men accused her father of treason. Now even she is no longer sure of her true identity.
Is she the girl of noble birth living under the tyranny of her mother’s new husband, Lord Terayama? A lowly drudge scraping a living in the ashes of Terayama’s kitchens? Or Yue, the most beautiful courtesan in the Moonlit Lands?

Everyone knows Yue is destined to capture the heart of a prince. Only she knows that she is determined to use his power to destroy Terayama.

And nothing will stop her. Not even love.

Release Date: July 26th, 2011

Summary:

A lot has changed in the six months since Evie escaped from the International Paranormal Containment Agency with her shape-shifter boyfriend, Lend. She finally has the blissfully normal life she’s always dreamed of, including:
1) A real live high school
2) A perfectly ordinary after-school job
3) Her very own locker (and by the way, rusted metal is every bit as awesome as she imagined)


But Evie’s not-so-normal past keeps creeping up on her...and things get pretty complicated when you factor in:
1) A centuries-old, seriously decaying vampire stalker
2) A crazy faerie ex-boyfriend who is the perpetual bearer of really bad news
3) A major battle brewing between the faerie courts where the prize in question happens to be...Evie herself.


So much for normal.
