How can I know what's going to happen? But somehow he did know. The feeling was like déjà vu but stronger...and scarier. It told him that without a doubt something was going to happen. And it was going to be bad. *** In the year since Justin's younger brother, Mark, died in a horrific accident, Justin's life has unraveled. Justin used to be one of the school's star athletes, but now he's not even on any of the teams. He used to be part of the popular crowd, but now everyone at school treats him like he's a monster. He used to date one of the prettiest girls at school, but now she will barely speak to him. Then on the anniversary of his brother's death he gets into a fight with his former best friend, and things spiral out of control -- with terrible consequences. But that's not the worst. Now Justin is hearing a voice that's making him relive the day of the accident over and over again. In this dark thriller, Edgar Award nominee Kate Morgenroth explores the thin line between reality and illusion inside a troubled young mind.

A girl asleep for a hundred years, a group of artifact hunters in a post-apocalyptic mob controlled city, and the necklace that will tangle all their lives together. Echo's body has been in a medically induced sleep for almost one hundred years, her mind awake to the changing world through the technology in her necklace and the safeguards put in place by her father. With a young child kidnapped and her oldest enemy closing in, Echo will have to work together with Bryn and his group of Hunters to save not only the child, but her life.

Maybe I would become a mermaid....I would live in the swirling blue-green currents, doing exotic underwater dances for the fish, kissed by sea anemones, caressed by seaweed shawls. I would have a dolphin as a friend. He would have merry eyes and the thick sleeked flesh of a god. My fingernails would be tiny shells and my skin would be like jade with light shining through it. I would never have to come back up...Echo is caught at the crossroads of a physical world full of hope and despair and the realm of the supernatural, where young men have wings and skeletons speak. On the way, she is graced by angels and fairies and haunted by ghosts, psychopomps, and vampires. But as Echo falls under the spell of demons who threaten to destroy her, she must ultimately look within to find the strength to survive. Through shifting points of view, Francesca Lia Block weaves pure magic into this deftly constructed tale -- a novel told in the form of linked stories. One girl's life emerges from a tapestry of voices, lives, and loves -- lost and found -- that deliver her finally to herself, triumphant, ever-changing.

FIFTY YEARS AGO, THE CREW OF THE ECHO TOOK REFUGE ON THE PLANET HEGEMONY, LEAVING THEIR STARSHIP IN ORBIT BEHIND THEM. FIFTY YEARS LATER, THE DESCENDANTS LOOK TO THE LIGHT PASSING IN THE NIGHT SKY AND WONDER ... Only two generations elapsed before knowledge of the Echo and Earth vanished. All that remain are the Tales: seemingly nonsensical nursery rhymes devised by the Echo's crew to preserve knowledge of the ship and its operation for future generations. But over time these have degenerated into puzzling fragments. Petra the Tale-Keeper senses that life on Hegemony is changing and so imposes order by creating a religion based on the Tales. But Sarai, a misfit outcast, finds the Echo crew's first encampment and a computer containing a record of their journey. As Petra seizes power by murdering any who would stand against her, Sarai returns from the desert bearing the truth. And under a blood red moon, a prophet enters the City ...

On the surface Emily Porter, aka Echo, has it all: plenty of money, a close-knit group of friends, permissive parents, a job in fashion. But what she really wants is less. Much less. Less food, less flesh, less fat, less of the body she sees as her captor and her cage. A chance to model in an upcoming Gothic fashion show is the perfect deadline, and Echo takes this opportunity as a challenge to achieve less -- a chance to reduce herself to nothing. At first the transformation is effortless. Echo loses weight, meets a new boy, hosts the social event of the holiday season. But soon there are problems: weakness, temptation, blackouts, freak-outs, trouble with family and friends. What begins as diet and exercise soon turns into blood, pain, obsession, and as Echo's mind and body begin to change so does her view of herself. She cannot see the woman in the mirror, nor the danger she is facing. Can she stop herself, see herself, before it's too late?
