First new books of 2013 ~ Part 1

Deadly Little Lessons by Laurie Stolarz

 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

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.
