Kyrie McCauley, author of the William C. Morris YA Debut
Award winner If These Wings Could Fly, delivers a powerful
contemporary YA novel about the lasting bonds of friendship
and three girls fighting for each other in the
aftermath of a school shooting. Perfect for fans of Laura Ruby and
Mindy McGinnis. Beck and Vivian never could stand each other, but
they always tried their best for their mutual friend, Cassie. After
the town moves on from Cassie’s murder too fast, Beck and Vivian
finally find common ground: vengeance. They memorialize Cassie by
secretly painting murals of her around town, a message to the world
that Cassie won’t be forgotten. But Beck and Vivian are keeping
secrets, like the third passenger riding in Beck’s VW bus with
them—Cassie’s ghost. When their murals catch the
attention of a podcaster covering Cassie’s case, they become the
catalyst for a debate that Bell Firearms can no longer ignore. With
law enforcement closing in on them, Beck and Vivian hurry to give
Cassie the closure she needs—by delivering justice to those
responsible for her death. * Parade's Best YA Books of the Year *

BLY MANOR meets MEXICAN GOTHIC in this haunting romance about a
dark family lineage, the ghosts of grief, and the lines we’ll
cross for love. The Sleeping House was very much awake … Days
after a tragedy leaves Marin Blythe alone in the world, she
receives a surprising invitation from Alice Lovelace, an acclaimed
horror writer and childhood friend of Marin’s mother. Alice
offers her a nanny position at Lovelace House, the family’s
coastal Maine estate. Marin accepts and soon finds herself minding
Alice’s pecular girls. Thea buries her dolls one by one, hosting
a series of funerals, while Wren does everything in her power to
drive Marin away. Then Alice’s eldest daughter returns home
unexpectedly. Evie Hallowell is every bit as strange as her younger
sisters, and yet Marin is quickly drawn in by Evie’s compelling
behaviour and ethereal grace. But as Marin settles in, she can’t
escape the anxiety that shadows her. Dead birds appear in Marin’s
room. The children’s pranks escalate. Something dangerous lurks
in the woods. All is not well at Lovelace House, and Marin must
unravel its secrets before they consume her.
Perfect for fans of Laura Ruby, Laurie Halse Anderson, and Mindy
McGinnis, Kyrie McCauley's stunning YA debut is a powerful story
about the haunting specter of domestic violence and the rebellious
forces of sisterhood and first love. Winner of the William C.
Morris Award! Tens of thousands of crows invading Auburn,
Pennsylvania, is a problem for everyone in town except
seventeen-year-old Leighton Barnes. For Leighton, it's no stranger
than her house, which inexplicably repairs itself every time her
father loses his temper and breaks things. Leighton doesn't have
time for the crows-it's her senior year, and acceptance to her
dream college is finally within reach. But grabbing that lifeline
means abandoning her sisters, a choice she's not ready to face.
With her father's rage worsening and the town in chaos over the
crows, Leighton allows herself a chance at happiness with Liam, her
charming classmate, even though falling in love feels like a
revolutionary act. Balancing school, dating, and survival under the
shadow of sixty thousand feathered wings starts to feel almost
comfortable, but Leighton knows that this fragile equilibrium can
only last so long before it shatters.
