In the dystopian world of Fairfolke, no one is truly free. The land of fairytales becomes something much darker when a tyrannical High King comes into power, enforcing a strict caste system that divides the people of Fairfolke into three castes: Heroes, Peasants, and Villains. Moira Queenston never wanted to hurt anybody. The orphan daughter of two Peasants, all she hoped for was a simple life with her only friend, fellow orphan Peter. But everything Moira thought she knew changes when she finds herself declared a Villain and forced into a preparatory school built on hatred and fear. Now, Moira must learn to reconcile her own conscience with the choices before her, her only contact with Peter -- who was declared a Hero -- through the lens of her magic mirror. But deep beneath her shy, compliant nature, Moira is prepared to do anything to avoid the fate decided for her, even if that means losing the only person she's ever loved.

Sweepings of the Street [EXCERPT] by amanda_denney_writes

Twelve-year-old Sarah Lee longs to remain in the golden fields under a starry sky forever, but life has other plans for her. After the bleak spring of 1816 yields meager crops, Sarah's family flees its home in the English countryside to labor at a textile factory in newly industrial London. A factory accident several months later leaves Sarah's father out of work and her family desperate for money. Despite the worries of her older brother Thomas, Sarah disguises herself and ventures into a dangerous new job. Sarah soon learns that life in London is not as simple as it seems. She meets Jamie, a sullen, aggressive boy who helps her adjust to the new conditions. But Jamie has dark secrets of his own, and his reluctance to trust strangers clashes with Sarah's burning curiosity about his past. As the city creeps towards winter, Sarah and her friends stand face-to-face with the horrors of London poverty-rising prices, rampant crime, disease, and hopelessness-and it becomes clear that not everyone will make it out alive. Everyone has a secret, and the consequences can be more devastating than any of them can imagine. "Dark, emotionally gripping, highly researched... very impressive." "Deeply moving and heart-wrenching, it will forever leave a mark on my heart." - anonymous readers WARNINGS: This excerpt contains descriptions of physical injury and child abuse.
