Against all odds, Katniss Everdeen has survived the Hunger Games twice. But now that she's made it out of the bloody arena alive, she's still not safe. The Capitol is angry. The Capitol wants revenge. Who do they think should pay for the unrest? Katniss. And what's worse, President Snow has made it clear that no one else is safe either.
Not Katniss's family, not her friends, not the people of District 12.

The second installment of Scott Westerfeld’s international bestselling
Uglies series – the global phenomenon that started the dystopian trend.
In Tally’s world, looks are all that matters. And now that she’s
finally undertaken the surgery to become a ‘Pretty’, everything seems
perfect: her looks are flawless, her clothes are cool, her boyfriend is
totally gorgeous, and she's completely popular.
But beneath the fun of non-stop parties, high-tech luxury and apparent
total freedom, Tally can’t stop a nagging sense that something is
wrong. Something important. Then a message from her ‘Ugly’ past
arrives, forcing Tally to remember the truth she learned before her
transformation, and the fun stops cold. Because the true price of this
perfect world is more than Tally is willing to pay…
In Sika Longtooth's line of work, the potential for risk is
always present no matter how simple the job. And those risks are
often downwind of him-out of range for even his keen nostrils. As
the young beaver ambles along the trails in the Great Forest, he
has no idea that an evil force lurks in the shadows.
In a time when the world is different and the creatures in the
forest are close to all the mysteries, Sika is suddenly whisked
away from the only life he knows and-to protect his forest-is
forced into battle with a fierce enemy. Used to living within the
predictable and ordinary, Sika now must move from one dangerous
situation to another while in the company of a slow-talking
porcupine, an excitable skunk, and two spirited squirrels. If Sika
is to survive and ultimately save the Great Forest, he must first
endure perils that no beaver has before.
From one unexpected turn of events to the next, an unlikely hero
emerges. Now he must determine who is friend and who is foe- before
the forest disappears forever.

about him; all the guys want to be his friend-what more could a
teenage boy want? Ethan has no idea his idyllic life is about to
hit rock bottom.
While on a mission one evening to seek revenge on a rival, Ethan
and his friend, Anthony Williams, are attacked by a gigantic,

soon lapses into a brief coma of sorts, leading to the eventual
discovery that, whether he likes it or not, he has transformed into
a werewolf. Ethan tries to carry on as if everything is normal, but
when he and his rival get into a fight, Ethan loses control and
kills him. Even worse, three more people die in mysterious wolf
at-tacks. Ethan believes he has no one but himself to blame, but
his best friend, Anthony, wonders if someone else is responsible
for the killings.
In this exciting, suspenseful tale, Ethan must find a way to
protect everyone he cares for before they all end up victims of the
menacing monsters that lurk in the shadows of the night-just
waiting to pounce.

In a cozy cottage where she lives with her Grandma-a famous witch
extraordinaire-and her ornery magic cat, Tabasco, Filly struggles

arrives home from rolling down grassy hills with her friends, she
discovers a large cardboard box outside her front door-waiting to

around the room on the back of a flying Dalmatian dog, Filly
realizes she should have paid better attention while learning her
spells. Filly quickly learns that it is up to her to make things
right, but she needs to master her spells first. Only time will
tell if Filly Tucker will ever earn her wand.
