Infused with magic and romance, this sweeping fantasy adventure inspired by the legend of Mulan follows a young woman determined to choose her own destiny—even if that means going against everyone she loves.
Last October, Alice Ogilvie's ex-best friend, Brooke Donovan, was killed—and if it weren't for Alice's unlikely alliance with her tutor, Iris Adams, and her library of the complete works of Agatha Christie, the wrong person would almost certainly be sitting in prison for the crime. The Castle Cove police aren't exactly great at solving crimes. In fact, they're notorious for not solving crimes.
Which is why, on the night of Castle Cove High's annual Sadie Hawkins dance, Alice takes the opportunity to explore Levy Castle—the site of one of Castle Cove's most infamous deaths. Mona Moody—the classic film star—died there almost a century ago, and Alice is pretty sure the police got that investigation wrong, too. But before she can even think about digging deeper, she walks right into the scene of a new crime. Rebecca Kennedy, on the ground in a pool of blood. And standing over Kennedy? Another one of Alice's ex-friends—Helen Park.
The Castle Cove Police Department thinks it's an open-and-shut case, but Alice and Iris are sure it can't be that simple. Park isn't a murderer—and the girls know all too well that in life, and in mysteries, things are rarely what they appear to be. To understand the present, sometimes you need to look to the past.
Castle Cove is full of secrets, and Alice and Iris are about to uncover one of its biggest—and most dangerous—secrets of all.

She had Sydney, who pushed her during every cross-country run, and who sometimes seemed to know July better than she knew herself. And she had Sam. Sam, who told her she was everything and left her breathless with his touch.
Now, July is alone. Every single person in her small town of Lithia has disappeared. No family. No Alex or Sydney. No Sam. July’s only chance at unraveling the mystery of their disappearance is a series of objects, each a reminder of the people she loved most. And a mysterious message: GET TH3M BACK.

Then she receives a mysterious letter with four impossible words: Your father was innocent.

Worse, she begins to receive threatening letters, warning her to drop her investigation—or else. For Maeve to unravel the mystery of what happened seven years ago, she may have to forfeit her life.

A queen now in exile as a traitor, Lara has watched as Ithicana is conquered by her own father, helpless to do anything to stop the destruction. But when she learns her husband, Aren, has been captured in battle, Lara knows there is only one reason her father is keeping him alive: as bait for his traitorous daughter.
And it is bait she fully intends to take.
Risking her life on the Tempest Seas, Lara returns to Ithicana with a plan not only to free its king but to liberate the Bridge Kingdom from her father’s clutches, using his own weapons: the sisters whose lives she spared. Yet not only is the palace inescapable, there are more players in the game than Lara ever realized: enemies and allies switching sides in the fight for crowns, kingdoms, and bridges. But her greatest adversary of all might be the man she’s trying to free—the husband she betrayed.
With everything she loves in jeopardy, Lara must decide who—and what—she is fighting for: her kingdom, her husband, or herself.
A commander who bled to defend her people, Ahnna is haunted by two beliefs: The first is that she failed to protect Ithicana from invasion. And the second is that saving her homeland means leaving it behind forever.
The Maridrinians left Ithicana in ruins and its people impoverished. So when the wealthy kingdom of Harendell claims Ahnna as a bride for its crown prince, she is prepared to do whatever it takes to gain influence as the future queen—and to control the gold that comes with the throne.
Yet Ahnna swiftly discovers that beneath the beautiful surface of Harendell’s court is a dark underbelly of schemes, duplicity, and the pursuit of power. The only individual who holds himself above the politics is not her future husband but his infuriating half brother, James. And as she begins to question whether Harendell is the ally it claims to be, Ahnna finds herself drawn into a forbidden attraction to the wrong prince.
As deadly plots tighten around her, Ahnna must decide whether saving her people will be achieved as a bride . . . or as a blade.

This fully annotated volume collects three of Baum's fourteen Oz novels in which he developed his utopian vision and which garnered an immense and loyal following. The Wizard of Oz (1900) introduces Dorothy, who arrives from Kansas and meets the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, the Cowardly Lion, and a host of other characters. The Emerald City of Oz (1910) finds Dorothy, Aunt Em, and Uncle Henry coming to Oz just as the wicked Nome King is plotting to conquer its people. In Baum's final novel, Glinda of Oz (1920), Dorothy and Princess Ozma try to prevent a battle between the Skeezers and the Flatheads. Tapping into a deeply rooted desire in himself and his loyal readers to live in a peaceful country which values the sharing of talents and gifts, Baum's imaginative creation, like all great utopian literature, holds out the possibility for change.
Wilhelmina Hart is part of the infamous class of 2020. Her high school years began with a shocking presidential election and ended with a pandemic. In the midst of this global turmoil, she also lost one of her beloved aunts, a loss she still feels keenly. Having deferred college, Wilhelmina now lives in a limbo she can see no way out of, like so many of her peers. Wilhelmina’s personal darkness would be unbearable (especially with another monumental election looming) but for the inexplicable and seemingly magical clues that have begun to intrude on her life—flashes of bizarre, ecstatic whimsy that seem to add up to a message she can’t quite grasp. But something tells her she should follow their lead. Maybe a trail of elephants, birds, angels, and stale doughnuts will lead Wilhelmina to a door?
After their high school graduation, former best friends Cass and Syd are gearing up for their futures. Cass has planned to go to college to become an engineer, while Syd—despite the fact that her family thinks she’s messed up her whole life—has lined up a sound internship at a historic music venue.
But Cass is keeping secrets. Though his dad has forbidden it, Cass has been playing music, taking trips to San Francisco BART stations to play and make money. Somehow, it’s become a way for Cass to connect with his mother—who was also a musician—who died in a drunk driving accident on the way back from a gig when he was one.
But after Syd catches Cass playing at the BART station, and Cass finds out his mom’s old band the Darlas is going on a reunion tour, everything changes. On impulse, Cass invites Syd to the first Darlas show, and without telling anyone, they make a break for it. Turning one show into a cross-country journey, the two former friends throw away all their plans for the future and embark on a life-altering road trip following the tour, keeping it a secret from their friends and family.
Along the way, they’ll untangle the messy threads of how they became “ex”-best friends, experience the power of nature and music, and decide what they really want their lives to be. Maybe, through it all, Cass and Syd can find a way back to each other, too.

El tiempo me hizo ver que Helena, mi madre, era tan grandiosa que consiguió hacernos felices aun cuando su vida se rompía en mil cristales diminutos.

Ellos siempre me han despreciado y creen que no voy a defenderme. Se equivocan. Lo haré cuando esté a solas con ella y le demuestre que no hace falta que sea un chico quien la toque para dejar aflorar todo lo que esconde con tanto esfuerzo.
Holly Miller quiere que el próximo verano sea inolvidable. Es una chica responsable y trabajadora, pero pronto habrá un gran cambio en su vida y quiere sentir que ha aprovechado al máximo la etapa que está a punto de cerrar. No desea mirar atrás y arrepentirse de lo que ha dejado de hacer. Así que Holly tiene un plan y solo necesita a los Lions.
Jack Marchisio solo quiere largarse sin mirar atrás. Su vida es un desastre desde hace tres años, el tiempo exacto que lleva cargando con problemas que ni siquiera son suyos, pero ya falta muy poco para alejarse de todo y no piensa renunciar a su brillante futuro por nada ni por nadie. Jack es el rey de los Lions. Todos lo saben y lo respetan.
Un trato. Dos condiciones. Y el mundo de Jack y Holly se pondrá patas arriba.
Da igual las veces que Jack se haya repetido que es un error fijarse en esa chica rara que siempre tiene la cabeza metida en un libro, porque no puede dejar de pensar en ella. No importa que Holly se diga una y otra vez que no puede haber sentimientos con el arrogante y estúpido quarterback, porque él está marcando la diferencia.
Dos fuertes temperamentos, dos polos opuestos, sueños por cumplir, barreras que tumbar y un amor indomable y extraordinario con la fuerza de un millón de fuegos artificiales.

Todo está hecho pedazos. Jack ha roto el trato con Holly y nunca nada le había dolido más, pero tiene una razón demasiado importante para hacerlo. Holly no entiende qué ha ocurrido. Le han destrozado el corazón, pero no piensa hundirse. Tiene una lista de metas. Es valiente y va a perseguir sus sueños.
Sin embargo, por mucho que lo intenten, Jack y Holly no son capaces de olvidarse el uno del otro. Cada vez que se ven, cada vez que están en la misma habitación, su respiración se acelera y el corazón les late desbocado.
Los problemas de Jack, que ni siquiera son suyos, Tennessee, Bella, lo que ocurrirá después de graduarse? Demasiadas cosas los separan, pero lo que sienten cuando están cerca es más grande, más fuerte. El amor ya ha marcado el camino.
La tierra es sabia, respira vida y está ansiosa por ofrecer muchas más maravillas de las que ya nos regala cada día. Y nuestro deber es cuidarla para que siga haciéndolo.

Beth vio algo cuando se debatía entre la vida y la muerte y ahora está segura de que logrará su sueño, de que llegará a ser una anciana feliz y satisfecha, y de que hay alguien con un aspecto muy concreto con quien compartirá el resto de sus días. Sin embargo, el comienzo de la universidad trae nuevas oportunidades, desvíos que tomar y la presencia de Chris, que le hace sentir tantas cosas como nunca creyó posible… solo que no es el chico que marca el destino.
Chris cree en el amor, pero no en los «para siempre». Hasta que Beth se cruza en su camino y lo que empieza como un desafío para intentar demostrar que el futuro se escribe día a día se convierte en algo más. Está seguro de algo: no tiene la cara adecuada, pero es el chico adecuado.
¿Está escrito el destino? ¿O puede el amor jugar bajo sus propias reglas?
