Just saw this in Marcus Sedwick's Guardian review

of Margo Lanagan's THE BRIDES OF ROLLROCK ISLAND (when will it come to the US I wonder?):

Beyond the slight disappointment of the cover (does every book for teens at the moment have to have a moody girl in a ridiculously fancy frock? And this one, draped over a wet rock, looks as though she can't hide her boredom till the photoshoot's over), my hopes were realised.
