At a pool party, Ashleigh texts her boyfriend, Kaleb, a picture of herself. It's a picture meant only for him. After a bitter breakup, however, the picture goes viral even attracting the attention of the school board and the local police. Ashleigh is humiliated and alone. While doing community service, Ashleigh meets Mack, who restores her faith in friendship. This is a great story that shows how one impulsive action can have serious consequences. It's a good portrayal of what can happen if you don't think about what you are sending or posting.

Alice and her mother are always on the move. Bad luck seems to find them frequently. When news reaches them that Alice's grandmother and author of <I>Tales from the Hinterland</I> has died, things change quickly. Alice notices strange people around her and then suddenly her mother is kidnapped. Alice finds help from a classmate and a fan of her grandmother's tales, Ellery Finch. Together they try to find safety and Alice's mother. This was a fun yet dark fantasy. Alice and Ellery are terrific characters and the plot is full of surprises. I recommend this book to those who enjoy fairy tales and fantasy. |
