There's a little bit of monster in each of us. This Savage Song by Victoria Schwab is the first book in her new young adult duology, Monsters of Verity, a dark urban fantasy which paints a soot-tinged picture of a city overrun with monsters and a hero and heroine who stand on opposing sides.

Adventure, magic, and heart-warming characters fill the pages of Legrand's new middle-grade action-fantasy, Foxheart.

THE GIRL FROM EVERYWHERE takes the concept of time travel but puts a unique and exciting spin on it. The travel occurs by means of a pirate ship and through the use of maps; not just any ordinary maps but maps found in dusty rooms long forgotten, private collections, and museums where they are sequestered for safety. Fabled maps of long lost places such as One Thousand and One Nights and historical places such as such as 1868 Honolulu. There are adventures trips to modern day New York and as far off as ancient China. Trips to the historic and the fantastic; each held me breathlessly in anticipation.
