Juliet

This pleasing labyrinth takes readers back to the medieval Italian tale that inspired Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet and then forward into a treasure hunt that will beguile fans of both Dan Brown and Sarah Dunant. A key leads young protagonist Julie on a search deep into her family's history and on the trail of "Juliet's Eyes," wondrous gemstones that ornament of vanished golden statue. Danger and romance await our heroine as she pursues her quest. Adeptly plotted; artfully written.

Shine
“Shine” by Jeri Smith-Ready is the fantastic final chapter in her ‘Shade Trilogy’ series, a young adult series that explores a somewhat chilling reality that has very active ghosts.

The past year in the FAYZ has been absolute craziness. There are no adults, kids have superpowers and things are mutating, just to name a few of the problems.

The Hunt
I was blown away from the first chapter all the way to the end. Very tight thinking in how the characters are set and how society rules are established!
