Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children (Miss Peregrine's #1)
By Ransom Riggs
A mysterious island. An
abandoned orphanage. And a strange collection of very curious
photographs. It all waits to be discovered in Miss Peregrine's Home for
Peculiar Children, an unforgettable novel that mixes fiction and
photography in a thrilling reading experience.
As our story
opens, a horrific family tragedy sets sixteen-year-old Jacob journeying
to a remote island off the coast of Wales, where he discovers the
crumbling ruins of Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. As Jacob
explores its abandoned bedrooms and hallways, it becomes clear that the
children who once lived here - one of whom was his own grandfather -
were more than just peculiar. They may have been dangerous. They may
have been quarantined on a desolate island for good reason.
And somehow - impossible though it seems - they may still be alive.
Anna Dressed in Blood (Anna#1)
By Kendare Blake
Just your average boy-meets-girl, girl-kills-people story...
Cas Lowood has inherited an unusual vocation: He kills the dead.
So
did his father before him, until his gruesome murder by a ghost he
sought to kill. Now, armed with his father’s mysterious and deadly
athame, Cas travels the country with his kitchen-witch mother and their
spirit-sniffing cat. Together they follow legends and local lore, trying
to keep up with the murderous dead—keeping pesky things like the future
and friends at bay.
When they arrive in a new town in search of a
ghost the locals call Anna Dressed in Blood, Cas doesn’t expect
anything outside of the ordinary: move, hunt, kill. What he finds
instead is a girl entangled in curses and rage, a ghost like he’s never
faced before. She still wears the dress she wore on the day of her
brutal murder in 1958: once white, but now stained red and dripping
blood. Since her death, Anna has killed any and every person who has
dared to step into the deserted Victorian she used to call home.
And she, for whatever reason, spares his life
Masque of the Red Death (Masque of the Red Death #1)
By- Bethany Griffin
Everything is in ruins.
A
devastating plague has decimated the population, and those who are left
live in fear of catching it as the city crumbles around them.
So what does Araby Worth have to live for?
Nights in the Debauchery Club, beautiful dresses, glittery makeup . . . and tantalizing ways to forget it all.
But in the depths of the club--in the depths of her own despair--
Something Strange And Deadly (Something Strange and Deadly #1)
By- Susan Dennard
The year is 1876, and there’s something strange and deadly loose in Philadelphia…
Eleanor
Fitt has a lot to worry about. Her brother has gone missing, her family
has fallen on hard times, and her mother is determined to marry her off
to any rich young man who walks by. But this is nothing compared to
what she’s just read in the newspaper—
The Dead are rising in Philadelphia.
And then, in a frightening attack, a zombie delivers a letter to Eleanor…from her brother.
Whoever
is controlling the Dead army has taken her brother as well. If Eleanor
is going to find him, she’ll have to venture into the lab of the
notorious Spirit-Hunters, who protect the city from supernatural forces.
But as Eleanor spends more time with the Spirit-Hunters, including
their maddeningly stubborn yet handsome inventor, Daniel, the situation
becomes dire. And now, not only is her reputation on the line, but her
very life may hang in the balance.
Arcadia Awakens (Arkadien #1)
By - Kai Meyer
To New Yorker Rosa
Alcantara, the exotic
world of Sicily, with its network of Mafia
families and its reputation for murder and
intrigue, is just
that—exotic, and wholly
unknown. But when tragedy strikes, she
must
travel there, to her family’s ancestral
home, where her sister and aunt
have built
their lives and where centuries of family
secrets await her.
Once there, Rosa wastes
no time falling head over heels for
Alessandro
Carnevare, the son of a Sicilian
Mafia family, whose handsome looks and
savage grace both intrigue and unsettle her.
But their families are
sworn enemies, and
her aunt and sister believe Alessandro is
only using
Rosa to infiltrate the Alcantara clan.
And when Rosa encounters a tiger
one night
—a tiger with very familiar eyes—she can no
longer deny that
neither the Carnevares nor the Alcantaras are what they seem.
Ancient
myths brought to life in the Sicilian countryside, dangerous beasts
roaming
the hills, and a long history of familial bloodlust prove to
Rosa that she can’t trust
anyone—not even her own family. Torn between
loyalty to her aunt and love for
her family’s mortal enemy, Rosa must
make the hardest decision of her life: stay
in Sicily with her new love .
. . or run as far and as fast as she can.

A Demon Made Me Do It (Demon-blood #1)
by - Penelope King
Some girls share
clothes, a bathroom, or a bedroom.
Seventeen-year-old Liora Greyson has
to share, too.
Only she shares her body--with a demon. Liora just
wants
to survive her final year of high school unscathed, her dark
secret intact. But the walls she’s carefully constructed to
eep people
away crack wide open once she meets the sexy
and mysterious Kieron, and
he lights her world on fire. She
can’t let him know she transforms into a
demon named
"Lucky" at nightfall—a demon with an entirely separate
personality who passes out Torment, Justice, and Revenge
like Halloween
candy. Turns out Kieron is the one who
should be afraid once
Lucky discovers his true identity
and motivations. Liora wants to love
him, but Lucky
thinks he’s public enemy number one. And having a
demon
with a vendetta show up during a romantic date
puts a serious crimp in
any relationship. Fighting your
demons is one thing. Having one
that fights back, messes
with your guy, and leaves you with nasty
hangovers is
quite another. Being bad has never been so good...
