As the only heir to the throne, Marni should have been surrounded by
wealth and privilege, not living in exile--but now the time has come
when she must choose between claiming her birthright as princess of a
realm whose king wants her dead, and life with the father she has never
known: a wild dragon who is sending his magical woods to capture her.
Fans
of "Bitterblue" and "Seraphina "will be captured by a "Creature of
Moonlight," with its richly layered storytelling and the powerful
choices its strong heroine must make.

Gilded
Sixteen-year-old Jae Hwa Lee is a Korean-American girl with a black
belt, a deadly proclivity with steel-tipped arrows, and a chip on her
shoulder the size of Korea itself. When her widowed dad uproots her to
Seoul from her home in L.A., Jae thinks her biggest challenges will be
fitting in to a new school and dealing with her dismissive Korean
grandfather. Then she discovers that a Korean demi-god, Haemosu, has
been stealing the soul of the oldest daughter of each generation in her
family for centuries. And she's next. But that's not Jae's only problem.
There's also Marc. Irresistible and charming, Marc threatens to break
the barriers around Jae's heart. As the two grow closer, Jae must decide
if she can trust him. But Marc has a secret of his own?one that could
help Jae overturn the curse on her family for good. It turns out that
Jae's been wrong about a lot of things: her grandfather is her greatest
ally, even the tough girl can fall in love, and Korea might just be the
home she's always been looking for.

Buzz Kill
Putting the dead in deadline
To Bee or not to Bee? When the widely disliked Honeywell Stingers football coach is found murdered, 17-year-old Millie is determined to investigate. She is chasing a lead for the school newspaper - and looking to clear her father, the assistant coach, and prime suspect.
Millie's partner is gorgeous, smart--and keeping secrets
Millie joins forces with her mysterious classmate Chase who seems to want to help her even while covering up secrets of his own.
She's starting to get a reputation...without any of the benefits.
Drama--and bodies--pile up around Millie and she chases clues, snuggles Baxter the so-ugly-he's-adorable bassett hound, and storms out of the world's most awkward school dance/memorial mash-up. At least she gets to eat a lot of pie.
Best-selling author Beth Fantaskey's funny, fast-paced blend of "Clueless" and "Nancy Drew" is a suspenseful page-turner that is the best time a reader can have with buried weapons, chicken clocks, and a boy who only watches gloomy movies...but somehow makes Millie smile. Bee-lieve it.
