From the author of the New York Times bestseller Better Than the
Movies comes a romantic, heartfelt sequel that will sweep you off of
your feet!
When Zélie seized the royal palace that fateful night, she thought her battles had come to an end. The monarchy had finally fallen. The maji had risen again. Zélie never expected to find herself locked in a cage and trapped on a foreign ship. Now warriors with iron skulls traffic her and her people across the seas, far from their homeland. Then everything changes when Zélie meets King Baldyr, her true captor and the man who has ravaged entire civilizations to find her. The ruler of the Skulls, Baldyr's quest to harness Zélie's strength sends Zélie, Amari, and Tzain searching for allies in foreign lands. But as Baldyr closes in, catastrophe charges Orïsha's shores. It will take everything Zélie has to face her final enemy and save her people before the Skulls annihilate them for good.
Mercy needs to stand up for herself. She also needs a miracle. Eleven-year-old Mercy lives with her eccentric foster aunts – two elderly sisters so poor they can afford only one lightbulb. A nasty housing developer is eyeing their house, which suddenly starts falling apart – just as Aunt Flora does too. She’s forgetting words, names and even how to behave in public. Mercy tries to keep her head down at school but when a classmate frames her for stealing the school’s raffle money, Mercy’s teachers decide to take a closer look at her home life. With the help of a neighbour, Mr Singh, who teaches Mercy about Gandhi and his principles of passive resistance, Mercy finds a tool that can help solve her problems. But first, like Gandhi, she needs to stand up for herself. She also needs a miracle. And to summon it she has to find her voice and tell the truth – and that truth is neither pure nor simple. A book that already feels like a classic, Small Mercies holds a strong message for children today. Full of heart, it will shine among the best children's literature for years to come.

Welcome to Nikki Maxwell's aDORKable
world and the BRAND NEW ADVENTURE in the mega-selling Dork Diaries
series – now with over 57 million copies in print worldwide!
From Ali Novak, author of My Life with the Walter Boys, comes this swoon-worthy YA romcom about a teen who accidentally falls for the lead singer of a world-famous band, perfect for fans of Jenny Han and Lynn Painter! "When I wasn't reading this book, it was all I wanted to be doing. Adorably romantic and fun! I loved it." ―Kasie West, author of The Distance Between Us When Stella Samuel meets a gorgeous blue-eyed guy at Starbucks and shows him her camera, it's nothing more than a moment―one that takes her breath away, sure, but it's not like she'll ever see him again. This year she's postponing college to support her sister, Cara, as she fights cancer, and she doesn't have time for anything else. While Stella would rather not spend three hours in line to get autographs from some band called The Heartbreakers, her sister's a huge fan. It'll be totally worth it to surprise Cara on her birthday. But Stella gets a surprise of her own. That guy in Starbucks? Turns out he's Oliver Perry, lead singer of the Heartbreakers. And even though Stella hates his music (and tells him so), and it's weird that he's famous, they're falling for one another. Being with Oliver makes anything feel possible, even the dreams she'd put on hold. But how can Stella even think of following them when her sister could be dying?
The action-packed new series for fans who can’t get enough of K-Pop
Demon Hunters!
