❝ it takes 21 days to form a new habit. ❞ -dr. maxwell maltz when you practically live in a hospital, you'll inevitably get used to terminal sicknesses, depression, and death. it further underlines the quote, "nothing is permanent." caleb has nothing permanent in his life. and ever since his mom's absence, that's all he ever wanted; something tangible, something real, something constant. well, at least there's his one-legged african-american best friend that would never leave him alone (hopefully). and who would've thought that another constant would appear in the form of a cigarette-toting spaniard? and caleb hopes, just hopes, that he wouldn't be another temporary. (lower-case fully intended)

"Hi! I am so happy to have found you. For a long time I thought I was alone :-)" Since humanity started texting a mysterious celestial neighbour, fifteen-year-old Leonard Yates had only one dream; to join Earth's finest scientists delving deep into space to meet the entity named Archer, who lives alone on a resource-rich planet. But time for Leo is running out. Nearly all the crew for the expedition have been chosen and are already on their way. Leo knows. He has watched each member enter the Astral-Terrestrial Occum Machine known as The Atom to be teleported aboard a spaceship already soaring through the stars. Leo has one chance; the competition for the last ten spots is on and to make the cut Leo needs an edge. This edge comes in the form of the local hermit, a gruff and mean former-astronaut named Trent Green. Leo must enlist Trent's help to be selected as a potential space-faring candidate. Will Leo have what it takes to reach his dream and step inside the Atom?

"Being reunited with your childhood best friend after eight years apart? Sounds like a heart-warming story. Finding out that said best friend is now a complete jerk who's determined to make your life hell? Not so much." Georgie and Connor were once inseparable. Best friends from birth, they did everything together - well, that was until Connor's dad got a once-in-a-lifetime job opportunity and the family was forced to relocate to New York. At age sixteen, Georgie's life is totally different - her main goal being to keep her head down and escape the brutalities of high school with as little emotional scarring as possible. Balancing school, work and her dwindling social life is enough of a challenge, but it's about to get a bit more complicated when her conceited ex-best friend gets thrown into the mix. Maybe friendship should come with an instruction booklet.
