SUMMARY
As a general’s daughter in a vast empire that
revels in war and enslaves those it conquers, seventeen-year-old Kestrel has
two choices: she can join the military or get married. But Kestrel has other
intentions. One day, she is startled to find a kindred spirit in a young slave
up for auction. Arin’s eyes seem to defy everything and everyone. Following her
instinct, Kestrel buys him—with unexpected consequences. It’s not long before
she has to hide her growing love for Arin. But he, too, has a secret, and Kestrel
quickly learns that the price she paid for a fellow human is much higher than
she ever could have imagined. Set in a richly imagined new world, The
Winner’s Curse by
Marie Rutkoski is a story of deadly games where everything is at stake, and the
gamble is whether you will keep your head or lose your heart.

SUMMARY
Samantha is a stranger in her own life. Until
the night she disappeared with her best friend, Cassie, everyone said Sam had
it all-popularity, wealth, and a dream boyfriend.
Sam has resurfaced, but she has no recollection of who she was or what happened to her that night. As she tries to piece together her life from before, she realizes it's one she no longer wants any part of. The old Sam took "mean girl" to a whole new level, and it's clear she and Cassie were more like best enemies. Sam is pretty sure that losing her memories is like winning the lottery. She's getting a second chance at being a better daughter, sister, and friend, and she's falling hard for Carson Ortiz, a boy who has always looked out for her-even if the old Sam treated him like trash.
But Cassie is still missing, and the facts about what happened to her that night isn't just buried deep inside of Sam's memory-someone else knows, someone who wants to make sure Sam stays quiet. All Sam wants is the truth, and if she can unlock her clouded memories of that fateful night, she can finally move on. But what if not remembering is the only thing keeping Sam alive?

SUMMARY
What if you’d been living your life as if you
were dying—only to find out that you had your whole future ahead of you?
When sixteen-year-old Alice is diagnosed with leukemia, her prognosis is grim. To maximize the time she does have, she vows to spend her final months righting wrongs—however she sees fit. She convinces her friend Harvey, whom she knows has always had feelings for her, to help her with a crazy bucket list that’s as much about revenge (humiliating her ex-boyfriend and getting back at her arch nemesis) as it is about hope (doing something unexpectedly kind for a stranger and reliving some childhood memories). But just when Alice’s scores are settled, she goes into remission.
Now Alice is forced to face the consequences of all that she’s said and done, as well as her true feelings for Harvey. But has she done irreparable damage to the people around her, and to the one person who matters most?
