Most of the books I am displaying here are books I am looking very much forward to their release day. Some of them I already pre-ordered, others I started a request for and some I already have in my bookshelves since the month of March is by now a few days old. It can be that you will see some titles in my list that are already being published abroad but will hit the German bookstores only by now; or the other way around.
I don´t know which of them I will be really able to read this month or over the year in general - not to mention buying them or getting them as a reviewer´s copy – but I will try to get to know as many as I can.
Yes, I know I am quite late with this months` list of upcoming new releases. And as I wrote this post I saw that I have way more books on the German part of this list than usual. But I guess that is because the Leipziger Book Fair is coming up towards the end of the month and usually that means that a lot of new books are being published.
This list contains only the English titles & English covers for a better understanding if they are provided by the publisher at the time this post was written. Otherwise, I display the German title and cover.
Okay, now enough of the talking. My March list:

Growing closer, they begin to understand why they´ve never belonged and the reason they are now forever connected to each other. Switched at birth by the scheming witch Raven Hawkweed, Poppy and Ember must come to terms with their true identities and fight for their own place in the world.

And can it withstand the dark forces that are gathering?
