Sophomore Riley Turner is all for starting a writing club at her high school with her friends, Vera, Sebastian, and Allison, by her side. It may be challenging to forget about her former crush on one of said friends. Even so, Riley wants to move forward and put the past behind her. But her focus begins to shift when Allison's sister Emily joins. 

Emily is quiet and shy; her father, a strict pastor, doesn't exactly allow for her full self-expression. Riley agrees to befriend Emily so that Allison can rest easy once she leaves for college. But things get complicated when she finds herself falling for her. Will she be able to resolve her own struggles while drawing Emily out of her shell? And how long can she keep her growing feelings hidden?

Told from alternating points of view, Can I Have That in Writing? explores teenage struggles with identity, self-acceptance, and emotions that one might not be able to express through words alone.

For Just a Moment by Cecimack0365

What do you do when your smart, handsome, well-liked step brother and two of his friends force you to have sex with them in your own bedroom? Do you tell? And what if no one believes you? Or worse yet, what if the adults and even the friends that you count on think that it's somehow your fault? Sixteen-year-old Molly Kerrigan has a horrible secret, one so painful that she tries her hardest to forget it. Starting over at a new school, she does all she can to remain anonymous. But a well-meaning social worker hoping to help Molly come to terms with her troubled past, forces her to participate in an every-other-day lunch group. It is here that she meets Ali, who is figuring out her own sexuality, Trinity, so neglected at home that she seeks solace in the arms of older men, Rubi, a Mexican immigrant with her hands full, between her dying mama and younger, special needs sister, and Layla, the richest, most beautiful, and most manipulative girl in the school. Molly also draws the attention of charming soccer player, Noah Nazarian, after he sees her accidentally defending his freshman brother from bullies on the first day of school. Desperate to be left alone, Molly invents a pretend boyfriend. The only problem is that he ends up being not so pretend, and now Molly finds herself as one half of a fake relationship that is the obsession of the most popular clique at school.

What's Wrong With Us? by Autumn_Girl_Writes

Deep in the breathtaking forests of California, there's a school unlike any other-a hidden haven for six teenagers from all corners of the globe. Life here isn't perfect, but it's simple... until it isn't. They laugh, they argue, they grow-bonded by late nights, inside jokes, and the magic of their differences. In this strange, beautiful mix of cultures and identities, growing up feels a little less lonely. But then something changed. Something cracked the core of their tight-knit circle- A fight? A betrayal? Or something else entirely? Now, with trust shaken and the future unclear, the question lingers: Can they find their way back to each other? "We're different. But that doesn't mean we have to shrink ourselves to fit what society expects." - MacKenzie Gauthier
