She feels like a creature out of a fairy tale; a girl who discovers that her bones are really made out of stone, that her skin is really as thin as glass, that her hair is brittle as straw, that her tears have dried up so that she cries only salt. Maybe that''s why it doesn''t hurt when she presses hard enough to begin bleeding: it doesn''t hurt, because she''s not real anymore.Sethie Weiss is hungry, a mean, angry kind of hunger that feels like a piece of glass in her belly. She’s managed to get down to 111 pounds and knows that with a little more hard work—a few more meals skipped, a few more snacks vomited away—she can force the number on the scale even lower. She will work on her body the same way she worked to get her perfect grades, to finish her college applications early, to get her first kiss from Shaw, the boy she loves, the boy who isn’t quite her boyfriend. Sethie will not allow herself one slip, not one bad day, not one break in concentration. Her body is there for her to work on when everything and everyone else—her best friend, her schoolwork, and Shaw—are gone. From critically acclaimed writer Alyssa B. Sheinmel comes an unflinching and unparalleled portrayal of one girl’s withdrawal, until she is sinking like a stone into her own illness, her own loneliness—her own self.

If high school were a fairy-tale kingdom, Connelly Sternin would be Rapunzel, locked not in a tower by a wicked witch but in a high-rise apartment building by the SATs and college applications—and by the secrets she keeps. Connelly''s few friends think that her parents are divorced—but they''re not. Connelly''s father died when she was two, and she doesn''t know how. If Connelly is the Rapunzel of her school, Jeremy Cole is the crown prince, son of a great and rich New York City family. So when he sits down next to her at lunch one day, Connelly couldn''t be more surprised. But Jeremy has a tragic secret of his own, and Connelly is the only one he can turn to for help. Together they form a council of two, helping each other with their homework and sharing secrets.

La precuela oficial de la exitosa serie The Umbrella Academy de Netflix. Una aventura inédita y oscuramente cómica escrita por la exitosa autora Alyssa Sheinmel.La Academia Umbrella siempre ha sido extraordinaria, pero ahora que su fama ha alcanzado su punto álgido y que Número Cinco ha desaparecido, a veces lo único que Luther, Diego, Allison, Klaus, Ben y Viktor quieren es ser normales. Sin embargo, para Hargreeves, su exigente y tiránica figura paterna, nada es suficiente; por eso, Klaus propone relajar las tensiones y pasar una noche como un grupo de adolescentes normales en el lugar perfecto: una residencia de estudiantes en una universidad vecina que organiza fiestas los fines de semana. ¿Qué podría salir mal? Pronto los seis adolescentes se dan cuenta de que escabullirse de la casa —o fortaleza— de Hargreeves es la menor de sus preocupaciones. Cuando se comprometen a no usar sus poderes bajo ninguna circunstancia, no tienen en cuenta la influencia del dramatismo adolescente. Enfrentados a terremotos extraños, juerguistas aún más extraños y un posible nuevo enemigo, la Academia Umbrella habrá de elegir entre la noche con la que siempre soñaron y una misión inesperada con la que podrían salvar el mundo y, por fin, conseguir la aprobación de Hargreevers.

An original YA novel based on the hit Netflix series Outer Banks, written by New York Times bestselling author Alyssa Sheinmel, featuring JJ and John B in a brand-new, high-octane adventure
It’s spring break in the Outer Banks, and the islands are swarming with rich tourists. The last thing JJ and John B want to do is spend their week watching Kooks in action, so they plan a fishing getaway to the notoriously dangerous Frying Pan Shoals—nicknamed “Graveyard of the Atlantic” for good reason.
Turns out they aren’t the only adventure-seekers at sea. Soon after they set sail, the friends run into the captivating Savannah, who hitches a ride aboard the HMS Pogue when the weather worsens and her boyfriend leaves her stranded. As a violent storm sets in, the three realize the only place to safely ride out the squall is a creepy, abandoned hotel on the shoals’ lighthouse platform. Or is it abandoned? It doesn’t take long for the three teens to realize they may not be alone …
Further complicating the life-or-death adventure is a mounting attraction between JJ and the secretive Savannah—the closer JJ gets to her, the more he realizes he’s playing with fire. Even if they get out of the shoals alive, can a Pogue–Kook romance survive the high-stakes shores of the Outer Banks?
