Daniel Locke and the Tower of Eden by Marty Longson
The world is forever changed when a mysterious aurora appears around a small valley in northern California. This event happens at a time when ecological disasters are wreaking havoc on the world's ecosystem and brutal conflicts spread across the globe. The aurora awakens powerful artifacts buried deep in the earth and puts the small community trapped within the shimmering air, on the world stage. At the center of it all is a teenage boy who, after passing through the aurora, finds he has gained an amazing ability and a strange tattoo. Daniel Locke is caught between forces trying to seize the magical artifacts for themselves and a tower that could save the world or destroy it.

Rebirth Of The Chosen (Secrets Of Blood And Bone) by Robert Sadler
A war that will decide the fate of the entire human race rages on in the shadows, just beyond our sight. It is not the same old tired vampire versus werewolf story that everyone has heard before. No, this war involves all of the supernatural breeds, from the ones who hide amongst us, to the ones too hideous to face the light of day. This is not a war about money or politics. This war is about honor and greed, hunger and desire! Sides have been chosen, and soldiers are being gathered. If one group wins then our lives remain as they have always been with none of us the wiser. But if the others are victorious then mankind will be reduced to nothing more than slaves and food, our every breath a living nightmare. The human race is in desperate need of a champion and the only way to defeat the monsters that would rule us all… is to become one!

People Of The Tiger - 2012 USA Edition (The Rational Future Series) by Wayne Edward Clarke
Newly re-written for broader appeal! Book One of The Rational Future Series. By 2150 we've solved the great problems of humanity, and integrated those who are prone to violence. The system is then disrupted by a genetically engineered human. Tika finds that it's tough to be a strange child among The Tiger People, as she searches for her unknown origin! A sci-fi action and adventure blockbuster! Uses American Imperial measurement units.

The Princess and the Pea ~ A naughty fairy tale by Freyja Gray
We've all heard about the Princess and the Pea and how she has to prove her royalty status before she gets to her Prince. What lengths must Cassara go to? This is the same tale told in a way that your mother never told you, with a very tasty twist!

Cupcakes and the Centre of the Universe by Whitney Moore and Whitney Moore
What happens when the Centre of the Universe has an existential crisis? What happens when a man named John Doe bursts through the doors of a cupcake shop in Cornwall? What does an immortal moose named Bob have to do with everything? Find out the answers to these and many other questions you've never thought of within Cupcakes and the Centre of the Universe.

Karon pako kabalik dah. (facepalm).

My vote's for: People Of The Tiger - 2012 USA Edition (The Rational Future Series) by Wayne Edward Clarke. Yey naay scifi nga option. lol

EDIT:

Guys, ganahan mo mupadayon atong online book club thing? I'll volunteer to help mod it. Ang concept niya kay murag sa readhard.tumblr.com gani, na mag-choose ta ug book to read per month nya on the entire duration of the month kay mag-post ta ug quotes, favorite lines, initial thoughts, book reviews and even bookfaces (pics of us with the book). Para ni sad sa mga walay time maka-meet or maka-sturya2x diri sa forums. Complement ra ni sa forum of course, since nindot jud nga naay interaction man sad.

Lemme know. I want to create a tumblr for it na and wala sad ko kabalo unsay nindot i-URL for it.

Sounds very interesting... Support lang ko ninyo unsa inyo gusto hehehe. Bitaw nice pud na nga idea.

Wow, all of the choices sounds interesting, and I've never heard of them before. Unsa ilang genre? Fantasy, YA and speculative fiction? Are they available in Natio or Fully Booked? I don't have an ereader.

I'll pick The Princess and the Pea na lang because of the interesting subtitle...

[blakrabit]

why not poll this out so we'll know the results in real time? hehe.

I'd go for The Rebirth of the Chosen
