Welcome to today’s cover reveal!
Today we’re super excited to celebrate the cover reveal for THE MARKED GIRL by Lindsey Klingele, releasing June 21, 2016 from HarperCollins. Before we get to the cover, here’s a note from Lindsey:
Hello YABC! So excited for you to see the exclusive cover reveal for THE MARKED GIRL!
My debut book includes two things I love a lot — fantasy worlds and Los Angeles (though one can easily be confused with the other). So obviously when I first saw the cover for THE MARKED GIRL — created by the amazing Kate Engbring at HarperCollins — I was beyond stoked. The Griffith Observatory! The Walt Disney Concert Hall! CASTLE! I could only love this cover more if it opened up to reveal a never-ending serving of In ‘N Out french fries. Maybe for the sequel? Until then, hope you enjoy this cover as much as I do.
~ Lindsey Klingele (THE MARKED GIRL, HarperTeen)

THE MARKED GIRL
Once upon a time, in a land far, far away (Los Angeles)…
When Cedric, crowned prince of Caelum, and his fellow royal friends (including his betrothed, Kat) find themselves stranded in modern-day L.A. via a magical portal and an evil traitor named Malquin, all they want to do is get home to Caelum—soon. Then they meet Liv, a filmmaker foster girl who just wants to get out of the system and on with her life. As she and Cedric bond, they’ll discover that she’s more connected to his world than they ever could’ve imagined…and that finding home is no easy task…
Worlds collide in The Marked Girl, an exciting fantasy tale turned upside down.

Firstly, the cover is gorgeous. The whole illusionary effect is something I really like and actually reminds me of living in San Francisco and seeing all the hills, getting confused about what was up and what was down if I fell asleep or closed my eyes for a split second. I like it even better that there are no people on the cover, just illustration.
The synopsis is A++. I really want to read this book simply because of the whole idea of pampered royalty getting stuck in the modern world. Personally, I hope there isn’t too many romantic bits and more of a frenzy to discover/get out of this new environment.
The Marked Girl sounds very interesting. I already want it to be June 2016 so I can read this sooner! I love fantasy and ya so I am hooked and the cover is very appropriate with this book because the story is about a Foster girl who’s a film maker and her life turns around. And the cover being all upside down gives the realistic vibe to it. Cedric is a very interesting character from what I just read From about the book. A prince and all trying to get home. I can’t wait for this book to come out! I am already your fan!!
Such a gorgeous cover! And the plot sounds really unique and interesting 🙂
Holy smokes, this cover is gorgeous! Can’t wait to read this one!
The cover of this book is georgious and the synopsis sounds fantastic. I can’t wait to read it!

I adore the cover! SO pretty! And I really like the synopsis too- it sounds so unique! I am looking forward to reading it!
This story sound pretty unique. I love that there are no people on the cover, just a fantastical picture.
The cover is absolutely stunning. I love the color scheme and the fact that it shows us both worlds. The synopsis sounds amazing and the fact it takes place in LA (where I’m from) just adds to my excitement!
HOLY MOLY THIS COVER IS FABULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I need this one.
The cover is very cool and the summary sounds pretty awesome!
The synopsis is perfect. It has piqued my interest which is exactly what a good synopsis should do.
The cover is AMAZING.
The cover is great. It makes me want to buy the book.
The cover is absolutely gorgeous! I love that the Groffith Observatpry is on the cover. My husband and I went there on our honeymoon and it is still one of our favorite places!
This book seems amazing!
This sounds SOO good! I can’t wait for it to be June already!!
This sounds amazing! So many unique things happening that I haven’t seen in any other books before! I wont be able to wait till June to read it, I want it now!
That is a radical cover! I want that in a frame on my wall! Seriously! This sounds great. Way back when, I lived in L.A. I want to read this when it comes out.
both interesting
looks great
THIS SOUNDS PERFECT FOR ME! I love the cover! It kind of reminds me of Leah Cypess’s Death Sworn series. Gorgeous fantasy! I can’t wait to get my hands on this novel.
Thank you!
The cover is so gorgeous and different – i love it!
It’s beautiful
I love it! I really want to read this! 😀
The cover is very appealing and the synopsis made me want to read the book. Both are successes in my book!
It’s so prettyyy
The cover is absolutely amazing! It shows how different Liv and Cedric’s worlds are from each others yet they’re still connected. This sounds like a very interesting book just from the synopsis. A royal who gets sucked into a world that is completely different from what he is used to. A foster girl wanting to get out of the system to make a life of her own. Their lives are more intertwined than they thought. All they want to do is get home. I can’t wait to read this book. It feels like June is never going to get here.
That cover is gorgeous, I am a sucker for covers with a bit of color contrast. I think it shows really well what the book is about, two different worlds:D I have had this book on my TBR since Epic Reads did a post on new and interesting books that are coming up. I love fantasy, but I adore contemporary as well so what better than to mix those two together. The plot sounds like a good one and I can’t wait to read it!
I think that the cover is very artistic and makes me think of Inception.
The synopsis sounds interesting and tells me that the story is original and has a great adventure to tell!
The Marked Girl sounds like a great story, and the cover is fascinating! I ♡ it. Thank you
I love the castle and the rest of the cover is awesome too. I like that it is kind of a crossover fairy tale. Cannot wait to read it.
The cover is gorgeous!!! Very eye-catching!! I love fantasy and I love LA. My dad grew up there so its a big family place for me. The idea of combining these settings is awesome and I hope I get a chance to read this book!
The cover is absolutely gorgeous and the synopsis sounds great. I’m excited to try it.
Both the cover and synapses are beautiful!!
The cover is beautiful, and the story plot is above intriguing 🙂
I love the cover!! The plot sounds really interesting. Should be a great story of past meeting present.
