First new books of 2013 ~ Part 1
Deadly Little Lessons by Laurie Stolarz
Finishing her junior year of high school, Camelia leaves family and
boyfriend drama behind to attend a summer arts program in Rhode Island,
where she must use her power of psychometry to help find a missing girl.
Speechless by Hannah Harrington
Everyone knows that Chelsea Knot can't keep a secret-until now, because
the last secret she shared turned her into a social outcast--and nearly
got someone killed; so now Chelsea has taken a vow of silence and if she
thinks keeping secrets is hard, not speaking up when she's ignored,
ridiculed and even attacked is worse.
(BTW: the cover of this book is way cool in person! It's a pretty kind of pearl and the letters of the title are raised. Neat!)
Hades by Alexandra Adornetto
(Sequel to Halo)
Even the love of her boyfriend, Xavier Woods, and her archangel
siblings, Gabriel and Ivy, can't keep the angel Bethany Church from
being tricked into a motorcycle ride that ends up in Hell. There, Jake
Thorn bargains for Beth's release back to Earth. But what he asks of her
will destroy her, and quite possibly her loved ones as well.
Kiss Me Again by Rachel Vail
Having once shared a kiss with her best friend's boyfriend, Kevin,
fourteen-year-old Charlie finds life even more awkward when their
parents marry, making Kevin, still her crush, now her stepbrother.
Beyond by Graham McNamee
Everyone thinks seventeen-year-old Jane has attempted suicide more than
once, but Jane knows the truth: her shadow is trying to kill her.
