Goodreads Blurb:
When sixteen-year-old Tess
Kendrick is sent to live with her older sister, Ivy, she has no idea that the
infamous Ivy Kendrick is Washington D.C.'s #1 “fixer,” known for making
politicians' scandals go away for a price. No sooner does Tess enroll at
Hardwicke Academy than she unwittingly follows in her sister's footsteps and
becomes D.C.'s premier high school fixer, solving problems for elite teens.
Secrets pile up as each sister lives a double life. . . . until their worlds come crashing together and Tess finds herself in the middle of a conspiracy with one of her classmates and a client of Ivy's. Suddenly, there is much more on the line than good grades, money, or politics, and the price for this fix might be more than Tess is willing to pay.

Goodreads Blurb:
Held captive in the
barbarian kingdom of Venda, Lia and Rafe have little chance of escape.
Desperate to save her life, Lia's erstwhile assassin, Kaden, has told the
Vendan Komizar that she has the gift, and the Komizar's interest in Lia is
greater than anyone could have foreseen.
Meanwhile, nothing is straightforward: there's Rafe, who lied to Lia, but has sacrificed his freedom to protect her; Kaden, who meant to assassinate her but has now saved her life; and the Vendans, whom Lia always believed to be barbarians. Now that she lives amongst them, however, she realizes that may be far from the truth. Wrestling with her upbringing, her gift, and her sense of self, Lia must make powerful choices that will affect her country... and her own destiny.

Goodreads Blurb:
Ruthless and supremely
powerful, the Great Library is now a presence in every major city, governing
the flow of knowledge to the masses. Alchemy allows the Library to deliver the
content of the greatest works of history instantly—but the personal ownership
of books is expressly forbidden.
Jess Brightwell believes in the value of the Library, but the majority of his knowledge comes from illegal books obtained by his family, who are involved in the thriving black market. Jess has been sent to be his family’s spy, but his loyalties are tested in the final months of his training to enter the Library’s service.
When he inadvertently commits heresy by creating a device that could change the world, Jess discovers that those who control the Great Library believe that knowledge is more valuable than any human life—and soon both heretics and books will burn.…

Title: Paperweight
Author: Meg Haston
Publisher: Harper Teen
Date: July 7th,
2015
Goodreads Blurb:
Seventeen-year-old Stevie
is trapped. In her life. In her body. And now in an eating-disorder treatment
center on the dusty outskirts of the New Mexico desert.
Life in the center is regimented and intrusive, a nightmare come true. Nurses and therapists watch Stevie at mealtime, accompany her to the bathroom, and challenge her to eat the foods she’s worked so hard to avoid.
Her dad has signed her up for sixty days of treatment. But what no one knows is that Stevie doesn't plan to stay that long. There are only twenty-seven days until the anniversary of her brother Josh’s death—the death she caused. And if Stevie gets her way, there are only twenty-seven days until she too will end her life.
In this emotionally haunting and beautifully written young adult debut, Meg Haston delves into the devastating impact of trauma and loss, while posing the question: Why are some consumed by their illness while others embark on a path toward recovery?

Silver Blackthorn is a
fugitive from the law.
Silver Blackthorn has committed treason.
She is dangerous. Do NOT approach her.
A large reward is on offer. Report any sightings to your nearest Kingsman.
Long live the King.
