In this emotionally candid contemporary YA, author Jen Malone delves into the world of a teen whose life is brought to an abrupt halt when she learns she's in dire need of an organ transplant. Hard-charging and irrepressible, eighteen-year-old Amelia Linehan could see a roller de...rby opponent a mile away-and that's while crouched down, bent over skates, and zooming around a track at the speed of light. What she couldn't see coming, however, was the flare-up of the rare liver disorder she was born with. But now it's the only thing she-and everyone around her-can think about. With no guarantee of a viable organ transplant, everything Amelia's been sure of-like college plans or the possibility of one day falling in love-has become a huge question mark, threatening to drag her down into a sea of what-ifs she's desperate to avoid. Then a friend from the past shows up. With Will, it's easy to forget about what's lurking between the lightness of their time together. She feels alive when all signs point elsewhere. But with the odds decidedly not in her favor, Amelia knows this feeling can't last forever. After all, what can?

Freaky Friday meets Downton Abbey in this middle grade mystery that features a modern day twelve-year-old switching bodies with a Gilded Age heiress in order to solve a famous art heist. Hannah Jordan lives in a museum...well, sort of. She is the daughter of the caretaker for man...sion-turned-museum The Elms in Newport, Rhode Island. Hannah's captivated by stories of The Elms's original occupants, especially Maggie Dunlap, the tween heiress subject of a painting that went missing during a legendary art heist in 1905. But when a mysterious mirror allows Hannah and Maggie to switch places in time, suddenly Hannah is racing to stop the heist from happening, while Maggie gets an introduction to iPhones, soccer (which girls can play!), and freedoms like exploring without supervision. Not to mention the best invention of all: sweatpants (so long, corsets!). As the hours tick away toward the art heist, something's not adding up. Can the girls work together against time--and across it--to set things right? Or will their temporary swap become a permanent trade?

Three besties must piece together what happened after an epic sleepover becomes more than just karaoke and sundaes in this fun unlikely M!X novel in the manner of the movie The Hangover (Booklist). Meghan, Paige, and Anna-Marie are super excited for the Best. Night. Ever. The sle...epover they re planning is going to be nothing short of EPIC. Not even the last-minute addition of Anna-Marie s socially awkward, soon-to-be stepsister Veronica can dampen their spirits. But nothing prepares them for the scene that greets them when they awaken the next morning: the basement is a disaster, Meghan s left eyebrow has been shaved off and she is somehow in possession of the Class Bad Boy s signature hoodie, and there s a slew of baby chicks in the bathtub! Worst of all, Anna-Marie is missing! Trouble is, none of them can remember anything beyond the hypnotism trick performed by the two-bit magician Veronica arranged in an effort to impress the other girls. Now, as the clock is ticking and the clues continue to get weirder, the remaining girls must figure out exactly what happened the night before. Can they find Anna-Marie and pull off the ultimate save-face before parent pick-up time?
