"Two classmates scheme to break their parents up before they get married and ruin the girls' lives forever in this hijinks-filled middle grade novel.
Melisa Flores and Roxy Romero are not fans of each other. Roxy is sporty while Meli is artsy. Meli keeps her friend circle small while Roxy is pals with everyone. Their little brothers might get along like fruit in a delicious smoothie, but Meli and Roxy do not mix.
So when their parents announce their engagement, the girls are horrified. Previous experience has told them they'll never be friends, much less sisters. Meli and Roxy decide they have to do something to prevent this future blended family from ruining all their lives.
The girls scheme to show their parents exactly how incompatible their families are by sabotaging the renovations of the house they're supposed to live happily ever after in. From home improvement store catastrophes to disastrous paint jobs, it's clear the girls are good teammates when it comes to causing chaos. Could it be enough to convince their parents to call off the wedding?
But as the girls plot to show their parents exactly how incompatible their families are, they start to actually like each other—causing major complications when their plan begins working a little too well…"

"An epic and romantic debut adventure fantasy, where a necromancer trying to resurrect her sister gets embroiled in bigger, world-ending plans instead
'A transportive dark fantasy readers will eagerly devour’ Emily Thiede, author of This Vicious Grace
Necromancer Azul del Arroyo only wants one thing: to steal her sister back from Death by reclaiming her sister's bones. But the Emissary of the Lord Death will do anything to stop her, no matter how alluring he finds her …
As their paths collide, they're drawn into a deadly game of pawns and power with a scheming court, a faceless witch, and the fate of the lands hanging in the balance.
For long ago the gods raised the continents, binding them with their own bones to keep humanity alive. But in an era when the gods' sacrifice has been forgotten, Death might not be the only resentful god Azul must defy.
Swashbuckling, grand, and tragically romantic, Mistress of Bones is a can't-miss start to a duology about love, loss, and, of course, death."
"In the Heights meets Front Desk in this heartwarming and funny story about an injured boy and his newly-adopted three-legged cat.
Baseball means everything to Gregory. Not just because it feels like he’s flying when he hits a homerun, but also since it reminds him of summers spent playing with his cousin in the Dominican Republic. But when his accident benches him for the season, he's doomed to sitting around his parents’ bodega all day long.
For street cat Amber, who was born with a missing leg and left on the street as a kitten, life has always been about staying away from danger, keeping her belly full, and finding joy in the little things. But when she spots a human boy whose leg is broken, she remembers what it's like to need help when you feel lost and alone. How far will these two go to make a friend when they need one most?"

"An original and timely new YA novel from acclaimed author Susan Fletcher, set in a near-future where rogue gene editing has changed humanity—loosely based on The Little Mermaid
A girl torn between two worlds …
Turtle is scavenging a drowned town when she saves a stranger’s life. There’s something special about Kai—an attraction she’s never felt before. She would do anything to see him again.
But Turtle can never truly be with Kai, because Kai is Normal, and Turtle is one of the Mer, kids whose genes were illegally hacked before birth and who now have working gills as well as lungs. Turtle lives on an old cruise ship with the other Mer in order to be close to the water she needs to survive.
Yet she sneaks away and lies to her friends to spend more time on land with Kai. And the pull of the shore grows even stronger when Turtle reconnects with her sisters and learns that her father, who has been in prison for having her genes modified, has escaped and may be hiding out nearby.
When scientists come up with a way for the Mer to surrender their gills and live as Normals, Turtle faces a terrible choice. Turtle loves her life with her Mer friends, but she desperately misses her family. And then there’s Kai …
Should she give up her Mer community and their way of life, along with the joy of living freely under the sea? Or give up the guy she’s falling for … and any hope of reconnecting with her family?
“Susan Fletcher’s marvelous Sea Change surges with affection for those afflicted by change, and those challenged by it. With the brave and committed Turtle, we swim toward hope. Take a deep breath and dive in!”—Gregory Maguire, author of Wicked"

"Caldecott Honor winner Micha Archer's spectacular new book showcases the wind's ever-changing, blustery nature throughout the seasons.
Seasons come and go, and the wind wafts its way through them all. This delights a family of children, and when they ask the wind, "How will you blow today?" they get a kick out of not knowing what answer they'll get. Will the wind send gentle breezes that tickle and delight, cooling them off on hot days? Or strong gusts that knock their hats off and send them running inside on stormy days? One thing is for certain to our wind watchers-the wind is an always-changing wonder and constantly takes their breath away!"

Find the Unnamed Prince.

The capital is overrun with monstros. Her greatest champion is out of her reach. And every ally she thought she could rely on is losing faith in her and her mission.

"In the Heights meets Front Desk in this heartwarming and funny story about the friendship between a bodega owner's anxious kid and her newly adopted mischievous kitten.
Everyone thinks Yesenia is calm, collected, and crushing it. But really, her stomach is constantly a ball of nerves. With parents who left their home in the Dominican Republic to make a better life for their kids, and three perfect, over-achieving older sisters, Yesenia can't let anyone know about the anxiety that’s causing her to fall behind in school. When her doctor tells her parents that taking care of an animal could help, little did they know her newly adopted kitten would be such a mischievous influence.
All kitten Candy can think about is adventure—and what’s she supposed to do when her owner is cooped up inside helping at the bodega? But when Candy escapes and gets lost in New York City for a night, she realizes maybe the big open world isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Can these two find a way out of feeling so lost, as long they’re together?"
