Connor is sick. Always has been, always will be. It's left him jaded and strapped for cash, but at least it's not bloodrot. He's still got his sanity. When an estranged family member offers him a lifetime supply of his meds for an itsy bitsy bit of exploring, however, Connor accepts and ventures out into the dark tunnels of Par-12. This is well outside the relative safety of the subterranean mega-city of Heart. And it's a stupid decision. Meanwhile, Tess - his pharmacist's little sister - finds herself in a pickle. This isn't too unusual, given her knack for sticking her nose where it doesn't belong. However, it is the first time she's been plucked from her home and dumped outside of Heart. And there are things out there in those dark, dark tunnels - things that were once people. Tess and Connor are not alone. *Content warning: occasional strong language and somewhat graphic descriptions of a poorly handled disease. **Special thanks to @RicBlow for the lovely cover art!

There's a murder. All evidence points to you. But you didn't do it. Did you? Ava Milberry moves into the quiet town of Newhaven following her divorce, hoping for a fresh start. Newhaven is everything that she's hoped for, and with a clean slate and a brand-new group of friends, she believes it's a promise for a brand-new life ahead. But when news of a murder rocks the town, panic shakes every resident - and Ava is branded the suspect. With the new start she's been searching for shattered, Ava will have to face the skeletons emerging from her closet in order to prove her innocence or risk having her life destroyed for good.

In space, the lame don't walk, they soar. Setting out on their maiden voyage is the first space crew with disabilities: an all-American basketball star, a celebrity streamer, a computer genius, a military hero, a walking encyclopedia, and the first human born in space. But when a massive solar flare threatens the ship and festering secrets divide the crew, is their mission crippled from the start?

A misguidedly idealistic high school student founds a club to teach his classmates philosophy; when it becomes a cult, he must change course before the whole school drinks the Kool-Aid. Frank can think of no better way to prove his classmates have no moral compass than to write a manifesto satirically arguing for the virtues of selfishness; when this attempt at shining a light on his classmates' behavior is taken at face value, he creates a club to spread his teachings, hoping his ironies will be more obvious on a grander scale. The authoritarian rule of law he establishes meets little resistance from his club members, even as he wonders privately when they'll have enough and choose a more virtuous path. While Frank earnestly seeks to help his classmates, his methodology proves misguided in practice, and Frank must find where to draw the line before he permanently ruins his beloved high school. But then again, being a cult leader is too much fun to pass up... You Must Remember This adapts the foundation of Catch-22 in a high school setting, applying the same notion of dystopian bureaucracy to lampoon Silicon Valley's competitive spirit and, in these politically charged times, comment on the fragility of our own democracy. CW: minor character death (non-graphic), dark psychological themes (e.g. gaslighting), authoritarian regimes (including references to communism and Nazism) "Amazing, terrible, bourgeois horror" "At first I thought the story was about silicone implants" "I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves the classic American English course reading list or just wants to read something that will make them think."

"They say that legends are born and legends are made. I believe that the word 'legend' is simply one of many labels people are classified by." Zitel Kleinhart. Everyone in the Medubi family opines that Granny T is an eccentric, old woman who is clearly a foot into her grave. With her greying, but well kept afro and her boot cut jeans from the eighties, she swaggers around town, or at least thinks she does. With the effects of the coronavirus hanging over everyone's necks like the sharpened axe of a seasoned executioner, life only seems to get worse. Contrary to popular belief, Granny T is not senile. And when tougher times arise, her wit and ingenuity keep her loved ones safe and out of harm's way.

Ellowyn and her stepfather, Dr. Edward Von Heikenroter, put the island of Fairburg on the map. Their little shop on Main Street specializing in the creation, and maintenance, of fully functional mechanical limbs, restored the livelihood of war veterans and factory accident survivors alike. But when Everett Greene, owner of a local greenhouse, presents the pair with an artificial limb built with a level of technology far beyond anything they've seen before, Dr. Von Heikenroter disappears. Ellowyn and Everett pick up the trail he left off and discover that under Fairburg's idyllic exterior nothing is as it seems.
