The Romantic Tragedies of a Drama King is the hilarious YA rom-com
debut from actor and comedian Harry Trevaldwyn, perfect for fans of
Heartstopper.
First there was Bridget Jones. Then there was Georgia Nicolson. Now get
ready to meet Patch Simmons . . .
Patch has decided that this is the year he will get a boyfriend. Fate
finally intervenes when two new mysterious boys join drama club: Peter,
who’s just moved from New York (very chic) and his best friend, Sam.
Patch is confident that one of them will be his first boyfriend. So,
armed with his over-supportive best friend Jean and an alarming level
of self-confidence, Patch sets out to make his mission a success.
Whether or not they actually like boys or him is a problem for later.
Flooded is the funny and beautifully illustrated tale of animals
who live in a city that is ever so slowly flooding. The flood comes
gradually at first. All the animals ignore the obvious and go about
their busy lives, disjointed from one another and preoccupied by
their own problems. Eventually, the flood water reaches a height
that they can no longer ignore and they have to work together to
save their city. All the animals join together in a line and pull
out the plug that is drowning the city. This is an exceptionally
illustrated story that teaches a message not to let problems fester
and with a little team work and community spirit, no problem is
insurmountable.

looking for vengeance and the boy who has no choice but to trust
her, lauded as a "a fantastically creepy story sure to keep readers

horror movies...the story is solidly scary and well worth the
read."-Booklist "Chupeco makes a powerful debut with this
unsettling ghost story...told in a marvelously disjointed fashion

Cold cases get hot in this unputdownable mystery from Jennifer Lynn
Barnes, no.1 New York Times bestselling author of The Inheritance Games
series. Perfect for fans of A Good Girl's Guide to Murder.
Three casinos. Three bodies. Three days.
After a string of brutal murders in Las Vegas, Cassie Hobbes and the
Naturals are called in to investigate. But even with the team's unique
profiling talents, these murders seem baffling: unlike many serial
killers, this one uses different methods every time. All of the victims
were killed in public, yet the killer does not show up on any security
feed. And each victim has a string of numbers tattooed on their wrist.
Hidden in the numbers is a code - and the closer the Naturals come to
unraveling the mystery, the more perilous the case becomes.
Meanwhile, Cassie is dealing with an equally dangerous and much more
painful mystery. For the first time in years, there's been a break in
her mother's case. As personal issues and tensions between the team
mount, Cassie and the Naturals will be faced with impossible odds - and
impossible choices.
Born smart. Born tough. Born FBI.
Dit is nie net Wolf wat onder Jakkals se streke deurloop nie, maar die ganse diereryk - van koning Leeu tot die kleinste diertjie ry aan die pen. Niemand is bestand teen die uitgeslape Jakkals se poetse nie, en die een wat hom probeer terugkry, kom steeds die slegste daarvan af. Maar soms loop Jakkals tog sy rieme styf en dan moet hy net bontstaan met sy slim bek om uit die moeilikheid te kom, want dis gewoonlik diep moeilikheid!
It's been five years since the infamous sea witch defeated the little
mermaid... and took King Triton's life in the process. Ariel is now the
voiceless queen of Atlantica, while Ursula runs Prince Eric's kingdom
on land. But when Ariel discovers that her father might still be alive,
she finds herself returning to a world--and a prince--she never
imagined she would see again.
The ghost of Bluebeard. A handsome count. A con artist in over her head. Mallory Fontaine is a fraud. She's descended from witches, and pretends to be one, although her only magic is the ability to see ghosts. She can barely make a living - but Count Armand Saphir will pay a fortune if she can rid him of his murderous ancestor's ghost. Now death has returned to the House Saphir, and Mallory is almost certain the killer is mortal. To have any hope of Armand's payment, she'll need to solve the murder, banish the ghost and keep passing as a witch.
Still, that's easy compared to her biggest challenge: trusting her heart. Especially when her heart's desire could be the murderer himself.
