No Good Witches | ONC √
I'M GOING TO START EDITING THIS PROBABLY. If you go to Our Lady of the Black Veil Academy, chances are you know the names Cass Landry, Rebecca Lovelace, and Mallory Meksawan. Cass Landry being the mysterious new girl with a tendency to practice magic illegally, Rebecca being notorious for lighting up every room she walks into, and Mallory being the second in command it-girl of Black Veil, as famed as she is feared. After a magical attempt to escape detention goes terribly, horribly wrong and their ethics teacher winds up dead (ironic, they know), Cass must band together with Rebecca, the girl she "totally doesn't like", and Mallory, another girl she doesn't like (but like...for real this time) to find a spell that can bring their teacher back to life before her situation becomes permanent. A spell of this caliber, however, requires that they venture into the underground world of their picturesque town, striking a deal with a powerful gang leader that not only raises the stakes, but gives them an even tighter timeline. And though as a witch Cass has personal experience with life and death, the pressure that she's facing now might just be too tough to handle. Luckily, she's not alone. And with the three baddest witches of Black Veil, who knows what could happen. (So yeah I failed but I'm keeping ONC in the title okay let me have this)Complete

Shadows of Light
Iris never wanted to be a warrior. She dreamed of warm days by the sea, the glow of the sun on her skin, and a life untouched by war. But fate never gave her a choice. She was only a child when soldiers came to her home in Ikarus, searching for something-someone. Her mother and father fought to protect her and her twin sister, Eris, but in the end, their love wasn't enough. Five gunshots. Two lives stolen. Iris fled into the night, leaving behind the only family she had ever known. She never looked back. Now, years later, Ikarus has fallen, conquered by The Concord. Its people are either dead, enslaved, or forced to fight for the empire that destroyed them. And among The Concord's highest-ranking soldiers is someone Iris never expected to see again. Eris. The sister she abandoned. The sister who has spent years sharpening her hatred into a blade. Captured and thrown into the heart of enemy territory, Iris must survive a world designed to break her. Her power over light, once wild and uncontrollable, has now become a weapon they seek to claim. But the greater danger isn't The Concord-it's the sister who stands against her. The sister who once loved her. The sister who now sees her as nothing more than a ghost of the past. Iris knows she isn't strong enough to win. Not yet. If she wants to live, she'll have to fight. If she wants to escape, she'll have to outsmart the empire. And if she wants to stop Eris before it's too late... she'll have to become the one thing she never wanted to be. A soldier.
