    The stereotypical highschool romance, viewed from the eyes of the player's best friend. Lily James and Mason Stewart have known each other since the 3rd grade, with a bond closer to that of brother and sister. Now it was high school, and while Lily was popular she preferred to stay in the background, letting Mason take the spotlight and embrace his role as the high school player. However, all of that begins to change when Autumn Woods is thrown into the mix. Small, smart, and feisty when needed, to Lily's delight, she and Mason embark on the stereotypical high school romance. Offering comic relief and advice when needed, Lily finds that she is not without some romance and drama of her own. Romance, drama, laughter, and more are in store for the player's best friend.

    A beautiful mare. A brother-sister twin duo. Both trying to find a place in the world. Imported from the Middle East as a (3yo) yearling, she came to the U.S., wild, barely broken from unqualified trainers and abusive owners. Finally coming to a shelter as a rescue with hardly any papers to prove her existence and a bitter attitude towards mankind, it seems she will be stuck there forever. | A pair of twins, having almost been sent to a foster home, can't trust the people they are closest to. He with the scars to prove it, and she with the memories she could never outrun. Working for their lessons at a local shelter, they quickly come across a stunning horse soon to be known as "That Mare." A screaming, flailing, kicking, fighting, bundle of fury, she is practically unapproachable. Yet they are drawn to her, the known bits of her story. They understand her anger, her hurt, her pain. Soon the two are doing everything they can to be as close to her as possible. First wary of each other, soon their curiosity of each other's story grow a friendship between them. Their shrewd outlook on life and suspicion of others bonds them. Their trust in their group only grows. The twins are the only ones who can risk touching the pure-bred Arabian of fire, wind, and sun. The two children/teens teach her to be ridden and are a perfect match. But they need to own the mare officially before anyone can tear them apart for good.

His numbness comes to an abrupt end, however, when a blurry image of a forgotten family friend forms in his mind. Desperately seizing his unlikely chance to get the one thing he's always wanted, a normal life, Leroy ditches his new foster home to find the caring woman from his past. With little more than a few hazy memories, though, it'll take more than desperation to find her.

Takes place in the year 2001.

    *Disclaimer: I wrote this book back in school, so it's a bit subpar, but I get a kick out of it, and I hope you will too.*** After the peculiar and puzzling deaths of six local students, Sara Foley, a senior in High School, is forcibly sent overseas by her mentally unstable and misguided mother, to stay with "relatives," who could just as easily qualify as strangers, for how well known or trusted they are by the Foley family. It is summer, and Sara is accompanied on her journey by her older sister Ann, who has been instructed to look after her during their stay in Ireland. Completely irresponsible, her eighteen year old, "older" sister conjures more chaos than she quells. On their first night abroad the sisters Foley get lost - in both body and spirit - having drunkenly strayed miles away from their intended homestay. Rote Idlers' Palimpsest chronicles their cross-country adventures, wherein they encounter allies, enemies, (love interests and lunatics) accomplices, and characters arguably more detached and deranged than they themselves. In the end they grow to suspect an elevated level of the esoteric runs the elaborate and eclectic lines of their family lineage, yielding some, but not all answers as to the cataclysmic deaths that set their initial journey in motion.
