Something Certain, Maybe is a powerful novel about first love,
friendships and embracing the uncertainty of an unknowable future,
from Sara Barnard, winner of the YA Book Prize. Rosie is ready for
her life to begin, because nothing says new life like going to
university. After years of waiting and working hard, she's finally
on the road that will secure her future. Except university turns
out to be not what she hoped or imagined, and although she's not
exactly unhappy - really - she might be a little bit worried that
she doesn't really like her course much. Or her flatmates. Or,
really . . . anything? But it's normal to be homesick (right?) and
everything will have settled in a month or two, and it's totally
fine that her friends seem so much happier than she is, and that
the doctors don't seem to know what's wrong with her mother. And
then she meets Jade, and everything starts to look a little
brighter. At least, it does if she's only looking at Jade. But is
first love enough when everything else is falling apart?
Perfect for fans of Tahereh Mafi's New York Times bestselling Shatter Me trilogy, this book collects the final two companion novellas, Shadow Me and Reveal Me, leading up to the explosive final in the series - coming next year.
Shadow Me
Juliette is still reeling from Warner's betrayal, and Kenji is trying to balance his friendship with her with his responsibilities as a leader of the resistance against the Reestablishment. Things get even more interesting when an unexpected person from Omega Point’s past surfaces.
Reveal Me
Readers are brought back to the Shatter Me world one last time before the final novel installment in the series hits shelves in 2020.
Perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas, Victoria Aveyard and Leigh Bardugo.
A sweeping romantic novel about the power of soulmates and love. Pitch-perfect for the TikTok YA crowd.
Evan Taft has plans. Take a gap year in Alaska, make sure his brother and single mother are taken care of, and continue therapy to process his father's departure. But after his mum's unexpected cancer diagnosis, and as Evan's plans begin to fade, he hears something - a song no one else can hear, the voice of a mysterious singer ...
Shosh Bell has dreams. A high school theatre legend, she's headed to performing arts college in LA, a star on the rise. But when a drunk driver takes her sister's life, that star fades to black. All that remains is a void - and a soft voice singing in her ear ...
Over it all, transcending time and space, a celestial bird brings strangers together: from an escaped murderer in 19th century Paris, to a Norwegian cosmonaut in low-earth orbit, something is happening that began long ago, and will long outlast Evan and Shosh.
With lyrical prose and breathtaking storytelling I Loved You in Another Life explores the history of love, and how some souls are meant for each other - yesterday, today, forever. Perfect for fans of Nina LaCour and Matt Haig.
Eighteen-year-old Aihui Ying dreams of becoming a brilliant engineer just like her beloved father - but her life is torn apart when she arrives a moment too late to stop his murder, and worse, lets the killer slip out of reach. Left with only a journal containing his greatest engineering secrets and a jade pendant snatched from the assassin, Ying vows to take revenge into her own hands.
Disguised as her brother, Ying heads to the capital city, and discovers that the answer to finding who killed her father lies behind the walls of the prestigious Engineers Guild -- the home of a past her father never wanted to talk about. With the help of an unlikely ally - Aogiya Ye-yang, a taciturn (but very handsome) young prince - Ying must navigate a world fraught with rules, challenges and politics she can barely grasp, let alone understand.
But to survive, she must fight to stay one step ahead of everyone. And when faced with a choice between doing what's right and what's necessary, Ying will have to decide if her revenge is truly worthwhile, if it means going against everything her father stood for ...
A searing look at diet culture and all its ugly consequences, from the
talented writer of Influential.
New year, new me!
That's what Saffron Saldana tells herself as the clock strikes midnight
on New Year's Eve.
Her resolution is the same every year: lose weight.
Because Saffron has it hard-wired that weight loss equals happiness.
It's what she's been told her whole life - online, in magazines,
especially by her own diet-obsessed mother. But dieting is hard.
So to escape her own reality, Saffron creates Sydney, a super-slim,
AI-generated 'perfect' version of herself. Boys online love Sydney, and
for Saffron, it's just a bit of harmless fun.
Until the boundaries of her life online and offline begin to blur . . .
And one boy in particular makes her question her desire to be someone
she's not.
Can Saffron find a way back to herself, and learn to love who she
actually is?
Girl: Ultra-Processed explores what it is like to be a teenage girl in
our current body-obsessed world while juggling family drama, friend
dynamics, dating, betrayals and major life changes.
The unputdownable third book in the beloved LUX series from bestselling
author, Jennifer L. Armentrout!
NO ONE IS LIKE DAEMON BLACK.
When he set out to prove his feelings for me, he wasn't fooling around.
Doubting him isn't something I'll do again, and now that we've made it
through the rough patches, well... There's a lot of spontaneous
combustion going on.
BUT HE CAN'T PROTECT EVERYONE.
After everything, I'm no longer the same Katy. I'm different... And I'm
not sure what that will mean in the end. When each step we take in
discovering the truth puts us in the path of the secret organization
responsible for torturing and testing hybrids, the more I realize there
is no end to what I'm capable of. The death of someone close still
lingers, help comes from the most unlikely source, and friends will
become the deadliest of enemies, but we won't turn back. Even if the
outcome will shatter our worlds forever.
TOGETHER WE'RE STRONGER . . . AND THEY KNOW IT.
Nicci is 'n willewragtig op 'n bergfiets. Die heel lekkerste is om die seuns se
reaksie te sien wanneer hulle besef 'n meisie het vir hulle weggery. Tot die dag
wat Nicci wreed aangeval en van haar fiets beroof word. Haar wêreld tuimel
ineen. Wie sal so iets doen? Stuk-stuk pas Nicci en haar vriende Felicity en
Donovan die legkaart inmekaar, en wat hulle uitvind toets hulle geloof in hulle
medemens, en hulle eie waardes. Die boek daag ook geslags- en
verhoudingstereotipes speels en slim uit. Nicci is ewe goed in ballet en
bergfietsry, maar omdat sy 'n meisie is, verwag haar ouers en onderwysers dat sy
vanselfsprekend ballet sal kies. Haar oë gaan ook oop oor die ou op wie sy verlief
is, wat eintlik maar net 'n modelmooi meisie soek vir wie voorkoms en wat ander
mense van haar dink, mees belangrik is. Sy vind in Donovan 'n ware vriend wat
haar toelaat om haarself te wees.
