Nota:
  • Liska sa che è la magia è mostruosa e che chi la pratica è malvagio. Ha fatto di tutto per sopprimere il potere che le sboccia nel petto, con conseguenze disastrose. Così, per liberarsene, fugge dal suo villaggio e si inoltra nella Driada, il pericoloso bosco-vivo, per rubare il mitico fiore di felce, che le permetterà di esprimere il desiderio di una vita senza magia. Oltre al fiore, però, nella foresta Liska trova il Leszy, il demone guardiano del bosco, che invece di ucciderla le offre un patto: un anno di servitù in cambio del desiderio del fiore di felce..

Abstract: Una ragazza tenace e coraggiosa. Un uomo oscuro e pieno di segreti. Una storia d'amore tormentata e proibita che in Francia ha scalato le classifiche e travolto il #booktook. Si può amare quando non si ha più un cuore? Giunta negli Stati Uniti dall'Australia dopo la morte della madre, Ella è costretta a condurre una vita che non vuole e a sacrificare se stessa per salvare la famiglia che le è rimasta. È così che finisce tra le grinfie di John, un uomo perfido e malvagio, che trasforma la sua esistenza in un incubo reale. Un giorno, però, per una serie di vicissitudini, Ella si ritrova a vivere con Ash, un ragazzo affascinante eppure estremamente pericoloso. Delinquente spietato e membro di una gang, Ash sembra detestare Ella con ogni fibra del suo essere, soprattutto quando la ragazza lo sfida con tutto il suo spirito combattivo. Eppure, più passa il tempo più l'attrazione tra i due cresce e minaccia di esplodere. E se Ella si accorgesse ben presto che colui che credeva essere un diavolo è un angelo pronto a rubarle persino l'anima?

Abstract: Avery has always used music as an escape. But after her best friend betrays her, even her perfectly curated playlists can't help her forget what happened. To make matters worse, her parents have dragged her and her social-media-obsessed sister to a remote family camp for two months of "fun". Just when Avery is ready to give up on the summer altogether, she meets Brooks - mysterious, frustratingly charming Brooks - who just happens to be on staff - which means he's off-limits. What starts as a disaster turns into..something else. As the outside world falls away, Avery embarks on a journey of self-discovery. And when Brooks offers her the chance of a lifetime, she must figure out how far is she willing to go to find out what she wants and who she wants to be.

Abstract: Bee Königswasser lives by a simple code: What would Marie Curie do? If NASA offered her the lead on a neuroengineering project - a literal dream come true - Marie would accept without hesitation. Duh.

Even though he spends his days working in his family's secondhand bookstore, the only book Aaron can bear to read is one about the demise of the dinosaurs.

Charlie wants a good relationship with her body, but it's hard, and her mom leaving a billion weight loss shakes on her dresser doesn't help.

So when Charlie starts a tentative relationship with cute classmate Brian, the first worthwhile guy to notice her, everything is perfect until she learns one thing - he asked Amelia out first. So is she his second choice or what? Does he even really see her? UGHHH. Everything is now officially a MESS.

Abstract: Emilia Romero is living a double life. By day, she's a field hockey star with a flawless report card. But by night, she's kicking virtual ass as the only female member of a highly competitive eSports team. Emilia has mastered the art of keeping her two worlds thriving, which hinges on them staying completely separate. That's in part to keep her real-life persona, but also for her own safety, since girl gamers are often threatened and harassed. When a major eSports tournament comes to her city, Emilia is determined to prove herself to her team and the male-dominated gaming community. But her perfectly balanced life is thrown for a loop when a member of a rival team recognizes her . . . Jake Hooper has had a crush on Emilia since he was ten years old. When his underdog eSports team makes it into the tournament, he's floored to discover she's been leading a double life. The fates bring Jake and Emilia together as they work to keep her secret, even as the pressures of the tournament and their non-gaming world threaten to pull everything apart.

Abstract: After visiting her grandparents in New York City, Jenny Waters is ready for the perfect senior year. She's going to hang out with her best friend Angie, finally kiss her new boyfriend Steve, and convince her parents to let her apply to Columbia so she can become an award-winning journalist. But when her plane lands in St. Louis, Jenny and the other passengers are told their plane vanished into thin air. . . and then reappeared twenty-five years later. Suddenly, it's not 1995 anymore. Everyone in Jenny's life has spent the last twenty-five years mourning her death. Jenny has missed two decades of pop culture, and her high school is practically unrecognizable. Learning about cell phones and social media is difficult enough, but the unexplainable mystery of the flight has also thrust Jenny's entire life into the spotlight-which makes it extra-complicated when Jenny falls for a cute, kind classmate with an unusual connection to her past.

Abstract: Nancy Luo is shocked when her former best friend, Jamie Ruan, top-ranked junior at Sinclair Prep, goes missing and then is found dead. Nancy is even more shocked when word starts to spread that she and her friends - Krystal, Akil and Alexander - are the prime suspects, thanks to 'the Proctor', someone anonymously incriminating them via the school’s social media app. They all used to be Jamie’s closest friends and she knew each of their deepest, darkest secrets. Now, somehow the Proctor knows them, too. The four must uncover the true killer before the Proctor exposes more than they can bear and costs them more than they can afford, like Nancy’s full scholarship. Soon, Nancy suspects that her friends may be keeping secrets from her, too.
