With summer vacation ticking away, Russell Caldwell is stuck in the meaningless world of classic paperback novels, and babbling-walking-eighty-year-old-zombies. Nothing can possibly save him from the hell that is Riverway's local library...until he spots a mystery girl. [COMPLETE]

❝You and me,❞ he whispered, ❝until the end of time.❞ // A chronicle of Junie Bennett's birthdays from the ages of ten to twenty one.

Even if Amelia Jameson is seemingly immune to the idea of love, she's not immune to feelings. And maybe, maybe, someone can make her feel again.

"To live is to be haunted"

Lizzie just returned to school after taking an extended leave of absence. She's hoping that she can ride out the rest of her junior year under the radar, but it seems like someone else has other plans. One of her classmates is determined to befriend Lizzie and prove to her that she's not alone. The catch? She doesn't know who they are. They're determined to remain anonymous, and only communicate through neon green post-it notes left on Lizzie's locker. As Lizzie sets off to discover who her mystery friend is, she just might start healing from her trauma in the process--that is, until she finds herself falling into her old habits again.
