On her 16th birthday, abandoned outcast Jamie Cooper gets three surprise gifts.

The first is the awakening of a long dormant power inside her; she is an incomplete size-shifter, with a near limitless talent for shrinking whatever she wants, but a total inability to grow a thing or restore anything shrunken.

The second is an unexpected first meeting with a new transfer student on their first day of sixth form school, with whom she falls in love.

The third are nightmarish visions of a sadistic, remorseless size-shifter with an obsession for cannibalism and a power far greater than hers.

As the year goes on, the small town of Vorford is hit by a series of sudden disappearances, giving rise to fears of a serial killer within it.

Faced with constant internal and outward struggles, Jamie must decide between her morals or her desires, pushing her into a final shattering choice everyone's lives depend on.

(New chapters every tuesday and friday!) "My sister didn't commit suicide. She was murdered. I know it. Everyone in this fucking city knows it. But yet, everyone acts like everything is fine." ⚠️PREVIEW⚠️ The small town of Woodford, Oregon, on the surface looks like a boring and remote village like so many others, but it actually harbors a dark secret among its streets: The exorbitant number of suicides that occur each year. No one knows exactly why they happen. Some blame it on a mysterious criminal gang, some on drugs, others on noxious gases in the air or even a curse. Though to be honest no one really seems to care. Well, that is until a 16-year-old girl found a crucifix stuffed into her sister's dead body.... What is really behind the mysterious suicides taking place in the town?

[ONC 2023 SECOND PLACE WINNER | AMBASSADORS PICK 2023] An unwilling but gifted geneticist must find a way to safeguard humanity against the deadly pathogen she's forced to design or die trying. *** The planet's population is pushing past 11 billion and counting. With resources spread thin, widespread famine, and health systems crippled everywhere, the governments of the world are running out of ideas. Then a scientist proposes a controversial solution and the classified Project Rescue is born. But when the lead scientist on the project and his entire team mysteriously die, his young microbiology prodigy is brought into the secret government agency to take over where he left off. Ezra Mayur always hoped that her brilliance in pathogen studies would land her a secure job one day. This seems like a dream come true. Full food rations and safety for her struggling family, and a job in the field she is the most interested in. But the project is not quite what Ezra expected and her moral compass is tested when she has to choose between protecting her family or the world. *** PROMPTS that will make an appearance: 12. An evil sorcerer offers you an immense amount of power--but it comes with a price. (Modified: an evil corp offers you an opportunity of a lifetime, but it comes with a price.) 5. Flip the coin and make a life choice with it. Two choices, one coin, and no turning back. Do you dare?

ineffable, (a.) too great or extreme to be expressed or described in words. IN WHICH vada hartley doesn't just remember-she feels. every wound, every whisper, every trace of the past buried in the things people leave behind. it's a gift. or a curse. depending on the day. sent to join the FBI's off-the-books naturals program, vada finds herself surrounded by other teens trained to see what others can't. but while the others analyze from a distance, vada sinks into the emotional weight of every case. and it's getting harder to come back up. michael townsend understands that kind of heaviness-the need to take on hurt before it has the chance to break anyone else. he recognizes something in vada that he doesn't have words for. he's not sure he wants to. dean redding sees it too. her softness. her strength. the way her pain mirrors his own in all the worst ways. the three of them are caught in something raw and unspoken, but there's no time to untangle it-not when the past is clawing its way back into the present. and vada can feel it coming. vada has an emotive memory: the instinctive ability to absorb, retain, and relive the emotional states of others tied to specific memories or environments. im simpler terms: vada doesn't just remember events-she remembers how it felt for everyone involved. she experiences emotional energy attached to people, places, and moments. sometimes it's a gift. sometimes it's too much. *lowercase intended* *BOOK 1*

[ A COMPLETED 2020 TEEN MYSTERY ] Life can take a turn for the worst when you least expect it, spiralling deeply out of control in mere days. It's hard to see the signs sometimes; it may be personality changes, or even just an odd remark, but if we don't recognise these differences then grave consequences await us. It could be failing an important test, missing a friend's birthday, but sometimes people take it a little too far... A text. A fire. A killer. Who can we really trust in this world? And do we need to look closer to sense great deception? _________________________ Achievements: 🥈Second Place in the EC Awards - Mystery/Thriller Rated Eighty Plus in Shreya's Book Reviews 🥈 Second Place in the Carnation Awards - Mystery/Thriller 🥇 First Place in The Candle Light Awards _________________________ (Cover by @-carawrites) (Images found from the internet, credits to Lily Collins and party) All Rights Reserved.

I have restarted this book. I wanted to make it easier to read and more enjoyable. I hope to make shorter chapters and update frequently. :) In the beginning Sylar has no name. No one cares. She's just another kid to fall into a system because she was an unwanted mess. A child that doesn't talk? Yea, no one care about that either. A shady group home filled with bullies and secrets? Yea, you guessed NO ONE CARES! To find friends in a place like this is unlikely. This place is built to feed off the fears of kids and their lack of parental role models. No one holds on to dreams for long in a place like this. You get placed here and you are as good as forgotten. Except when a couple shows up looking as out of place as an astronaut in a gold mine or a miner in space whichever one you prefer. This couple comes and shakes things up. Good or Bad has yet to be decided...only someone's bound to get hurt, someone's bound to be broken. The only question is will the wounds heal or fester and kill?
