    Not a villain. Not a brooding love-interest. Just a normal, high school vampire. As a vampire, Anna knows about hunting. She knows how to find isolated prey, how to put people at ease, how to leave no trace behind. What she doesn't know about is high school. Students don't pay attention, her English teacher repeats the same lesson for days on end, and why does she seem to be the only one not bolting for the door when the bell rings? With one friend who's obsessed with vampires and another who's not quite what she seems to be, Anna has to learn the rules of high school fast if she wants to remain undetected. As attacks throughout the city increase, suspicions mount. Anna tries to go unnoticed, but when her newfound friend sets out to prove the attacks are being caused by a vampire, Anna is left to wonder if her dark secret will be discovered. And what will happen to her if it is? This is an urban fantasy story with plenty of teen drama and a touch of mystery. Think Buffy the Vampire Slayer meets The Vampire Diaries, but with a twist.

    Three months ago, Megan found a genie. Two weeks ago, he was stolen away from her. Now, her best friend Jen is in charge of that bottle - and of Jake. Jen used to barely tolerate Jake, but the longer she controls the bottle, the closer the two appear to become. Megan tells herself she isn't jealous, but Jen's boyfriend, Greg, might be. He's starting to realize that something is fundamentally wrong in his world. Since no one can give him an explanation, his suspicions are only growing, threatening to expose everything. To make matters worse, Megan's found another genie who seems to loathe her. She hates to say it, but he seems just a little bit evil. No matter what she tries, all her efforts to get him to warm up to her seem to backfire. So when Jake manages to go missing again, Megan has to wonder if she'll be able to use this new genie to get Jake back. Will he actually help her, or will this chaotic new partner use the opportunity to completely destroy her world? 🔸Note: This is the third book in the Nobody Likes Megan McGowen series.

    Every school has its problems; superhero school is no different. Phoenix Academy High School only caters to one type of student - potential superheroes that need a little extra help. While other superhero schools might expect perfection, Phoenix Academy knows better. Whether it's the inability to go completely invisible, trouble getting animal sidekicks to listen, or just a lack of consistency or longevity, Phoenix Academy can help any student to reach their full potential. ​​​​​​​Dean thought everything was fine, until he got that blue envelope in the mail. Sure, he might not be the best at school, but was he really the worst? According to the letter, he was. He'd been recommended for a transfer to infamous Phoenix Academy for his final year of high school. Now, if he wants to have any chance at superhero certification, he's going to have to overcome his fear of heights long enough to actually fly more than a few feet off the ground. If he can't, his superhero career is over before it even gets started. But with accidental force-fields blocking his way, lights flickering on and off at all hours, and a student who can look like anybody, Dean hopes he's up for the challenge. 🔹Updates every Friday🔹

    Having a genie is always complicated. Bringing him to school makes everything worse. Nothing ever seems to go Megan's way: she's late for everything, failing her classes, and barely registers in the eyes of her peers. Desperate to escape her perpetually middle-of-the-pack life, she scrapes together every last penny she can find, ready to run away. Instead of a fresh start, she finds an old, discarded bottle. When she opens it, a kid her own age appears, ready to grant her heart's desire. Her first, most important wish? To be popular. Overnight, Megan's life takes a drastic turn for the better-and she gets cocky. After a failed bet with the genie, she agrees to let him come to school. Before she knows it, he's worming his way into every part of her newly-improved life. He's in all her classes, friends with her brother, and even getting invites to hang out with her friends. But despite her best efforts, she's starting to see him as something more than just her personal wish-granter; he's almost a friend. But as the person who granted all her desires threatens to take over her life, she has to ask herself: Can she trust the magic she wished for, or is she just a pawn in the genie's own complicated game? This book is a fun, fast-paced story with a thoughtful core about friendship, desire, and consequences.

Megan is spiraling. To save her reputation, her grades, and the guy she might lose forever, she has only one option: she must find who took the bottle and steal it back.

    Who knew dusting a couple of rogue vampires would make high school harder? Last year, Mia helped eliminate some rival vampires wreaking havoc on her city. She thought that victory had bought her a shot at normalcy - grades, gossip, maybe even a date with the cute boy in her history class. But a note wedged in her locker changes all that: someone knows what she did. Suddenly, Mia's not planning movie nights - she's rearranging her life around the demands of her blackmailer. If she doesn't, she risks not only being exposed as a vampire, but being labeled as someone calculating enough to get rid of any competition. Adding to Mia's troubles are the questions about vampires from a friend who's just a little too interested, and a secret her boyfriend's keeping. There's something wrong with him - something so dark, Mia's not sure she'll survive the discovery. 🔸Note: This is the sequel to You Were What You Eat, but you 𝒅𝒐 𝒏𝒐𝒕 have to have read that book to enjoy this one.🔸

    Second place in the Fantasmical Story Competition. Alaina, a semi-reclusive elf with questionable fire magic, joins a mysterious stranger. Together, they must travel through twelve fantastical realms, defeating dangerous monsters in order to save her sister. Alaina grew up in the small village of Koh-i-noor with her parents and two sisters. Her oldest sister was the village beauty, and even though her family wasn't wealthy or connected, rumors of her elegance and grace traveled the countryside. She married a prince and moved to the capital. Then there's her younger sister, gifted in both earth and water magic; she's one of the most talented magic users in over a century. And Alaina? She's nothing like either of her sisters. She's got fire magic, but she's more likely to burn the house down than to light the hearth. But that doesn't bother Alaina - she's perfectly fine, even with unreliable magic. She lives in the small cottage her parents left her, along with her loyal, if somewhat yippy fox, Cinna, tending her garden and selling the sweetest strawberries that Koh-i-noor has ever seen. But when her sister sends a cryptic word that something's wrong at the Trida Academy, Alaina must abandon her solitary life to save her sister. Cover image by AndreasAux from Pixabay
