Liz has always believed she’s too black, too poor,
too awkward to shine in her small, rich, prom-
obsessed town. But Liz has an escape plan to attend
an uber-elite college, play in their world-famous
orchestra, and become a doctor. But when the finan-
cial aid she was counting on unexpectedly falls
through, Liz’s plans come crashing down . . . until
she’s reminded of her school’s scholarship for prom
king and queen. There’s nothing Liz wants to do less
than endure a gauntlet of social media trolls, catty
competitors, and humiliating public events, but de-
spite her devastating fear of the spotlight she’s willing
to do whatever it takes to get to college. The only
thing that makes it halfway bearable is the new girl in
school, Mack. She’s smart, funny, and just as much of
an outsider as Liz. But Mack is also in the running for
queen. Will falling for the competition keep Liz from
her dreams . . . or make them come true?
You Should See Me in a
Crown by Leah Johnson
In all thirteen years of Anna's life, her
parents have never given her a choice:
she was born to be her sister Kate's
bone marrow donor and she has al-
ways given Kate everything she needs.
But when Anna is told Kate needs a
new kidney, she begins to question
how much she should be prepared to
do to save the older sibling she has
always been defined by. So Anna
makes a decision that will change
their family forever - perhaps even
fatally for the sister she loves.

All The Truth That’s
In Me by Julie Berry
Judith can't speak. Ever since the horrifying
trauma that left her best friend dead and Judith
without her tongue, she's been a pariah in her
close-knit community of Roswell Station; even
her own mother won't look her in the eye. All
Judith can do is silently pour out her thoughts
and feelings to the love of her life, the boy who's
owned her heart as long as she can remember -
even if he doesn't know it - her childhood friend,
Lucas. But when Roswell Station is attacked by
enemies, long-buried secrets come to light . . .
and Judith's world starts to shift on its axis.
Before she knows it, Judith is forced to choose:
continue to live in silence, or recover her voice,
even if what she has to say might change her
world, and the lives around her, forever.
Sephy is a Cross: she lives a life of privilege
and power. But she's lonely, and burns with
injustice at the world she sees around her.
Callum is a nought: he's considered to be less
than nothing - a blanker, there to serve Cross-
es - but he dreams of a better life. They've
been friends since they were children, and
they both know that's as far as it can ever go.
Noughts and Crosses are fated to be bitter
enemies - love is out of the question. Then - in
spite of a world that is fiercely against them -
these star-crossed lovers choose each other.
But this is love story that will lead both of
them into terrible danger . . . and which will
have shocking repercussions for generations
to come.

by Jennifer Niven
Theodore Finch is fascinated by death, and he
constantly thinks of ways he might kill himself. But
each time, something good, no matter how small,
stops him. Violet Markey lives for the future,
counting the days until graduation, when she can
escape her Indiana town and her aching grief in the
wake of her sister's recent death. When Finch and
Violet meet on the ledge of the bell tower at
school, it's unclear who saves whom. And when
they pair up on a project to discover the 'natural
wonders' of their state, both Finch and Violet make
more important discoveries: It's only with Violet
that Finch can be himself - a weird, funny, live-out-
loud guy who's not such a freak after all. And it's
only with Finch that Violet can forget to count
away the days and start living them. But as Violet's
world grows, Finch's begins to shrink. How far will
Violet go to save the boy she has come to love?

hobbit, Bilbo Baggins. In a sleepy village in
the Shire, young Frodo Baggins finds him-
self faced with an immense task, as his
elderly cousin Bilbo entrusts the Ring to

When fifteen-year-old Clary Fray heads out to
the Pandemonium Club in New York City, she
hardly expects to witness a murder—much
less a murder committed by three teenagers
covered with strange tattoos and brandishing
bizarre weapons. And she’s more than a little
startled when the body disappears into thin
air. Soon Clary is introduced to the world of
the Shadowhunters, a secret cadre of warriors
dedicated to driving demons out of our world
and back to their own. And Clary is introduced
with a vengeance, when her mother disap-
pears and Clary herself is almost killed by a
grotesque monster. How could a mere human
survive such an attack and kill a demon? The
Shadowhunters would like to know…

Charlie is a freshman. And while he's not
the biggest geek in the school, he is by no
means popular. Shy, introspective, intelli-
gent beyond his years yet socially awk-
ward, he is a wallflower, caught between
trying to live his life and trying to run
from it. Charlie is attempting to navigate
his way through uncharted territory: the

dramas and new friends; the world of
sex, drugs, and The Rocky Horror Picture
Show, when all one requires is that per-
fect song on that perfect drive to feel
infinite. But Charlie can't stay on the

Vivian Carter is fed up. Fed up with her high
school teachers who think the football team can
do no wrong. Fed up with sexist dress codes,
hallway harassment and gross comments from
guys during class. But most of all, Viv Carter is
fed up with always following the rules. Viv's
mum was a tough-as-nails, punk rock Riot Grrrl
in the '90s, and now Viv takes a page from her
mother's past and creates Moxie, a feminist zine
that she distributes anonymously to her class-
mates. She's just blowing off steam, but other
girls respond and spread the Moxie message. As
Viv forges friendships with other young women
across the divides of cliques and popularity
rankings, she realises that what she has started
is nothing short of a girl revolution.

Rachael Lippincott
Can you love someone you can never touch? Stella Grant
likes to be in control - even though her totally out of
control lungs have sent her in and out of the hospital
most of her life. At this point, what Stella needs to con-
trol most is keeping herself away from anyone or any-
thing that might pass along an infection and jeopardize
the possibility of a lung transplant. Six feet apart. No
exceptions. The only thing Will Newman wants to be in
control of is getting out of this hospital. He couldn't care
less about his treatments, or a fancy new clinical drug
trial. Soon, he'll turn eighteen and then he'll be able to
unplug all these machines and actually go see the world,
not just its hospitals. Will's exactly what Stella needs to
stay away from. If he so much as breathes on Stella she
could lose her spot on the transplant list. Either one of
them could die. The only way to stay alive is to stay apart.
But suddenly six feet doesn't feel like safety. It feels like
punishment. What if they could steal back just a little bit
of the space their broken lungs have stolen from them?
Would five feet apart really be so dangerous if it stops
their hearts from breaking too?

I fell in love the way you fall asleep: slowly,
then all at once.
Despite the tumour-shrinking medical mira-
cle that has bought her a few years, Hazel has
never been anything but terminal, her final
chapter inscribed upon diagnosis.
But when a gorgeous plot twist named Au-
gustus Waters suddenly appears at Cancer
Kid Support Group, Hazel's story is about to
be completely rewritten.
Panic began as so many things do in Carp, a
poor town of twelve thousand people in the
middle of nowhere: because it was summer,
and there was nothing else to do. Heather
never thought she would compete in panic, a
legendary game played by graduating seniors,
where the stakes are high and the payoff is
even higher. She'd never thought of herself as
fearless, the kind of person who would fight to
stand out. But when she finds something, and
someone, to fight for, she will discover that she
is braver than she ever thought. Dodge has
never been afraid of panic. His secret will fuel
him, and get him all the way through the game;
he's sure of it. But what he doesn't know is that
he's not the only one with a secret. Everyone
has something to play for.
