The Walls Around Us
is a ghostly story of suspense told in two voices—one still living and
one long dead. On the outside, there’s Violet, an eighteen-year-old
dancer days away from the life of her dreams when something threatens to
expose the shocking truth of her achievement. On the inside, within the
walls of a girls’ juvenile detention center, there’s Amber, locked up
for so long she can’t imagine freedom. Tying these two worlds together
is Orianna, who holds the key to unlocking all the girls’ darkest
mysteries.
We All Looked Up

Peter, the star
basketball player at his school, is worried “they” might actually be
right. Meanwhile Eliza can’t wait to escape Seattle—and her
reputation—and perfect-on-paper Anita wonders if admission to Princeton
is worth the price of abandoning her real dreams. Andy, for his part,
doesn’t understand all the fuss about college and career—the future can
wait.

Max Cantrell has never
been a big fan of the truth, so when the opportunity arises to sell
forged permission slips and cover stories to his classmates, it sounds
like a good way to make a little money and liven up a boring senior
year. With the help of his friends Preston and Parvati, Max starts
Liars, Inc. Suddenly everybody needs something and the cash starts
pouring in. Who knew lying could be so lucrative?
Finding Mr. Brigtside

Abram and Juliette know
each other. They’ve lived down the street from each other their whole
lives. But they don’t really know each other—at least, not until
Juliette’s mom and Abram’s dad have a torrid affair that culminates in a
deadly car crash. Sharing the same subdivision is uncomfortable, to say
the least. They don’t speak.
