"A riveting ride through the stars." -Kirkus Reviews Black Mirror
meets What If It's Us in this gripping, romantic, and wildly
surprising novel about two boys lost in space trying to find their
way home-while falling in love-from the critically acclaimed author
of We Are the Ants. When Noa closes his eyes on Earth and wakes up
on a spaceship called Qriosity just as it's about to explode, he's
pretty sure things can't get much weirder. Boy is he wrong. Trapped
aboard Qriosity are also DJ and Jenny, neither of whom remember how
they got onboard the ship. Together, the three face all the dangers
of space, along with murder, aliens, a school dance, and one
really, really bad day. But none of this can prepare Noa for the
biggest challenge-falling in love. And as Noa's feelings for DJ
deepen, he has to contend not just with the challenges of the
present, but also with his memories of the past. However, nothing
is what it seems on Qriosity, and the truth will upend all of their
lives forever. Love is complicated enough without also trying to
stay alive.

around them. It's a new modern-day, star-crossed romance about what
it really means to love your country-and yourself-from the

Hutchinson.

A Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection! It's a new
star-crossed romance about the magic of first love from the
acclaimed author of We Are the Ants and Brave Face, Shaun David
Hutchinson. Jack Nevin's clever trickery and moral flexibility make
him the perfect assistant to the Enchantress, one of the most
well-known stage magicians in turn-of-the-nineteenth-century
Europe. Without Jack's steady supply of stolen tricks, the
Enchantress's fame would have burned out long ago. But when Jack's
thievery catches up to them, they're forced to flee to America to
find their fortune. Luckily, the Enchantress is able to arrange a
set of sold-out shows at Seattle's Alaska-Yukon-Pacific World's
Fair Exposition. She's convinced they're going to rich and famous
until a new magician arrives on the scene. Performing tricks that
defy the imagination, Laszlo's show overshadows the Enchantress,
leaving Jack no choice but to hunt for the secrets to his
otherworldly illusions. But what Jack uncovers isn't at all what he
expected. Behind Laszlo's tricks is Wilhelm-a boy that can
seemingly perform real magic. Jack and Wilhelm have an instant
connection, and as the rivalry between the Enchantress and Laszlo
grows, so too does Jack and Wilhelm's affection. But can Jack
choose between the woman who gave him a life and the boy who is
offering him everything? It's a stirring tale about the magic of
love from award-winning author Shaun David Hutchinson.

In a one-of-a-kind collaboration, seventeen of the most
recognizable YA writers-including Shaun David Hutchinson, Neal and
Brendan Shusterman, and Beth Revis-come together to share the
viewpoints of a group of students affected by a school shooting. It
took only twenty-two minutes for Kirby Matheson to exit his car,
march onto the school grounds, enter the gymnasium, and open fire,
killing six and injuring five others. But this isn't a story about
the shooting itself. This isn't about recounting that one
unforgettable day. This is about one boy, who had friends, enjoyed
reading, playing saxophone in the band, and had never been in
trouble before-became a monster capable of entering his school with
a loaded gun and firing bullets at his classmates. Each chapter is
told from a different victim's viewpoint, giving insight into who
Kirby was and who he'd become. Some are sweet, some are dark; some
are seemingly unrelated, about fights or first kisses or late-night
parties. This is a book told from multiple perspectives-with one
character and one event drawing them all together-by some of YA's
most recognizable names.
