Saying Goodbye
Seventeen-year-old Elena knows she's running out of time. With a brain tumor stealing her strength and her future, her parents move her to a quiet farmhouse in the woods, hoping for peace in her final months. But Elena doesn't expect the house to hold a secret-one that will change everything. In the attic, among boxes of forgotten records and dust, Elena discovers Ethan: a boy her age, with messy blonde hair, a crooked smile, and eyes that see right through her. Ethan is a ghost, bound to the house where his own life ended years ago. At first, Elena wonders if he's only a hallucination-a cruel trick of her dying brain. But Ethan is real, as real as the warmth of his hand on hers, the sound of his laughter, and the way her heart stirs when he looks at her. As her body weakens, Elena finds herself spending her days with Ethan, hiding from her grieving parents to linger in the attic with the boy who makes her feel alive again. Together, they share music, laughter, secrets, and the fragile beauty of a love that shouldn't exist. But time is different now. Elena's life as she knew it is gone, and what waits ahead is uncertain. As she slips further from the world she once belonged to, she begins to accept that her journey isn't ending-it's changing. And maybe, just maybe, she and Ethan aren't as lost as they thought.Complete

Death. What happens after it? What lies beneath the surface? Poor Arielle Daniels stumbled through dangerous hoops to figure this out. She wakes in a new place--the Void--and discovers that what waits after death are layers, dimensions, and sadly... more questions.

Margaret "Mack" Mora has always been good at keeping her distance. Quiet, sharp, and invisible by choice, she doesn't do school spirit, football games, or golden boys with easy smiles. But when she's assigned to tutor Wally Clark-the injured quarterback trying to catch up in class-her carefully built walls start to crack. Wally is nothing like she expected: thoughtful, funny, frustratingly sincere. Against all odds, they click. And just when Mack begins to let herself feel something real, everything falls apart. On the night of the homecoming game, Wally dies. Then Mack wakes up-and it's homecoming day all over again. No matter what she tries-keeping Wally home, warning him, running away-the day resets every time she falls asleep. And Wally always dies. Trapped in a time loop no one else seems to notice, Mack is forced to relive the day she loses him, again and again. But as she searches for a way to break the loop, Mack starts to realize the day isn't just about Wally's death-it's about their connection, the pieces of him she's only beginning to understand, and the parts of herself she's never dared to show. Because if love can't stop the clock... maybe it can teach her how to truly live.
