To maintain their hold on the kingdom, the Commune will stop at nothing to capture children who show signs of this power, to be weaponised or eliminated. 18-year-old Evelyn Folksman is in hiding. Taken in by a tavern-owner, she is haunted by the horrific events that drove her from her home years before. Evelyn is forced to face her past when two wayward children, Raif and Rose Huntsman, arrive at the tavern, pursued by Commune soldiers. The children fall under Evelyn's reluctant care as the trio narrowly escape a raid. Relentlessly hunted by Commander Jonah Sulemon and Commune agent Lord Eirik Torrant, Evelyn and Raif cannot fathom why they pose such a threat to the Commune, until six-year-old Rose unwittingly reveals a terrible secret: she possesses powers more fearsome than any the Commune has unearthed in decades.

They hurtle feverishly through the countryside, barely evading Commune attacks, and inadvertently finding themselves in the middle of a growing rebellion against the Commune's oppressive regime. Evelyn, Raif, and Rose must learn who to trust and who to fight as they evade the deadly grasp of the Commune in the first chapter of this exciting new trilogy...

Away We Go
by Emil Ostrovski“A lyrical, raucous narrative interspersed with flyers, posters, and letters…the oscillation between [Noah’s] heartfelt interior thoughts and sometimes careless actions and words is both moving and infuriating-in other words, vividly human. An intelligent, thought-provoking exploration of living in spite of futility.” — Booklist (starred review)“Intellectual boys’ boarding school story meets near-future dystopia in this end-times tale. …Noah and his friends form loving, believably complex relationships…witty.” — Kirkus Reviews“Noah is a nihilistic existentialist to the world, but inside he’s searching for something to reassure him that he is truly alive. His search for meaning is universal and will resonate with readers beginning to question their future.” — School Library Journal“The complex organization of this novel requires careful attention…Even so, brainy readers who want to see just how grim Holden Caulfield would get if he knew he was dying soon will find this to be a pretty accurate approximation.” — Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books

After a bad case of colic as a baby, Azar&’s vocal folds are shredded—full of nodules that give her a rasp the envy of a chain-smoking bullfrog. Her classmates might just think she&’s quiet, but Azar is saving her voice for when it really counts and talking to her classmates is not medically advisable or even high on her list.When she hears about a local Battle of the Bands contest, it&’s something she can&’t resist. Azar loves music, loves songwriting, but with her vocal folds the way they are, there's no way she can sing her songs on stage. Then she hears lacrosse hottie, Ebenezer Lloyd Hollins the Fifth, aka Eben, singing from the locker room. She&’s transfixed. He's just the person she needs. His voice + her lyrics = Battle of the Bands magic. But getting a band together means Azar has a lot of talking to do and new friends to make. For the chance to stand on stage with Eben it might all just be worth it.
Azia (Kingdom of Fairytales #1)
by J. A. ArmitageEssere figlia di una donna celebre per la sua bellezza, quando tu sei tutt'altro che straordinaria, è un peso che pochi possono comprendere. O forse mi sbaglio. Mia madre non era solo bella, ma è così che la storia l'ha dipinta, da sempre. Per un certo periodo, "Bella" fu il suo unico nome, quello vero dimenticato da tutti. La chiamavano la principessa addormentata, la Bella Addormentata. Anche ora, dopo anni, sui giornali si parla solo di lei. Mio padre, il re, è una nota a margine, e io sono un dettaglio insignificante nella mia stessa vita, condannata a essere per sempre la figlia della Bella Addormentata. Ma io sono la Principessa Azia Rose di Draconis, e questa è /la storia che nessuno ha mai raccontato.

Azul profundo (Matices #Volumen 1)
by Martinez Vila, AlbaLa vida adolescente es un caos. Fiestas, exámenes, campamentos. Y dos ojos azules que arrasan hasta con las creencias más arraigadas... El primer amor es siempre una aventura. Hey, vosotros. Antes de leer nada, tened en cuenta dos cosas. Tomáoslo como una advertencia de contenido sensible o una señal roja del tamaño de vuestra cabeza para que salgáis corriendo. Como queráis. Una, me llamo Alan Morgan y, aunque tengo sangre escocesa, soy inglés de pura cepa. Tengo un certificado que lo demuestra. Mis amigos son los mayores capullos del mundo y pasamos la vida jugando a la Play. Los adoro, obvio. Me pirran las tortitas, la pizza con piña y el WoW. Soy alérgico a las nueces y a cierto pijo de ojos azules con el que no paro de cruzarme. Dos, lo que ocurre en la historia es una estupidez. ¿A quién se le ocurre hablar de un campamento de verano para críos? ¿Eh? La originalidad, escasa. Y mucho más si añadimos que yo creía ser hetero, pero al final resultó que... no del todo. O, mejor dicho, nada de nada. (La culpa de todo la tuvo el susodicho pijo de ojos azules). El caso es que todo lo que vais a leer es una gilipollez. Tío, que menciono a Simba de El Rey León en los pies de página. En serio, cerrad el libro ahora que podéis. Id al campo a coger amapolas, salid con los amigos a algún bar y olvidaos de mí. Tal y como dijo un hombre mucho más sabio que yo: «corred, insensatos».
