'Looking for the next big groundbreaking event in YA? This is it' - Rick Riordan
Now includes a gorgeous map and an exclusive sneak peek of the sequel to The Belles - The Everlasting Rose
**********************
Welcome to the dark decadence of Dhonielle Clayton's sharp tale of beauty, obsession and magic. . .
I AM A BELLE. I CONTROL BEAUTY.
In the opulent world of Orléans, beauty is power. And only through a Belle's abilities can perfection be achieved . . . though the results always fade.
Camellia Beauregard wants to be the favourite Belle - the one chosen by the queen to tend to the royal family. But behind the gilded palace walls live dark secrets, and Camellia soon learns that her powers may be far greater - and far deadlier - than she ever imagined.
When the queen asks Camellia to use her powers to save the life of the ailing princess, she faces an impossible decision: refuse the queen to protect herself and the lives of her Belle sisters, or obey, and change their world forever.
Because there's a reason such magic is forbidden . . .
The Belles asks powerful questions about the price we put on our bodies - and holds up a mirror to our obsession with perfection
In the dramatic sequel to TINY PRETTY THINGS, three ballerinas compete for
coveted roles at their elite Manhattan ballet school, now in paperback.
June, Bette, and Gigi are competing one final time for a spot at the
prestigious American Ballet Company. With the stakes higher than ever, these
girls have everything to lose…and no one is playing nice. June is starting to
finally see herself as a prima ballerina. But being the best could mean
sacrificing the love of her life. Legacy dancer Bette is determined to clear her
name after she was suspended and accused of hurting her rival, Gigi. And Gigi
is not going to let Bette—or the other dancers who bullied her—go unpunished.
It all comes down to this last dance. Who will make the cut? And who will lose
her dream forever?
Featuring a diverse cast of characters, plenty of gossip, lies, and scandal,
SHINY BROKEN PIE
Black Swan meets Pretty Little Liars in this soapy, drama-packed
novel featuring diverse characters who will do anything to be the
prima at their elite ballet school. Gigi, Bette, and June, three
top students at an exclusive Manhattan ballet school, have seen
their fair share of drama. Free-spirited new girl Gigi just wants
to dance-but the very act might kill her. Privileged New Yorker
Bette's desire to escape the shadow of her ballet-star sister
brings out a dangerous edge in her. And perfectionist June needs to
land a lead role this year or her controlling mother will put an
end to her dancing dreams forever. When every dancer is both friend
and foe, the girls will sacrifice, manipulate, and backstab to be
the best of the best.
Anything is possible. From We Need Diverse Books fifteen
award-winning and celebrated diverse authors deliver stories about
a princess without need of a prince, a monster long misunderstood,
memories that vanish with a spell, and voices that refuse to stay
silent in the face of injustice. Alucard and Prince Rhy's
relationship in V.E. Schwab's Shades of Magic series is finally
revealed, Anna-Marie McLemore gives "Cinderella" a trans retelling,
while letters supernaturally cross borders between Gaza and
California in Tochi Onyebuchi's "Habibi". Close your eyes. Make a
wish. The universe is yours for the taking.
