The Giveaway:
The winner can choose from any one of these YA faerie and fantasy titles.
Splintered by A.G. Howard: This stunning debut
captures the grotesque madness of a mystical under-land, as well as a
girl’s pangs of first love and independence. Alyssa Gardner hears the
whispers of bugs and flowers—precisely the affliction that landed her
mother in a mental hospital years before. This family curse stretches
back to her ancestor Alice Liddell, the real-life inspiration for Lewis
Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. Alyssa might be crazy, but she manages to keep it together. For now.
When
her mother’s mental health takes a turn for the worse, Alyssa learns
that what she thought was fiction is based in terrifying reality. The
real Wonderland is a place far darker and more twisted than Lewis
Carroll ever let on. There, Alyssa must pass a series of tests,
including draining an ocean of Alice’s tears, waking the slumbering tea
party, and subduing a vicious bandersnatch, to fix Alice’s mistakes and
save her family. She must also decide whom to trust: Jeb, her gorgeous
best friend and secret crush, or the sexy but suspicious Morpheus, her
guide through Wonderland, who may have dark motives of his own.
Falling Kingdoms by Morgan Rhodes: In a land where magic has
been forgotten but peace has reigned for centuries, a deadly unrest is
simmering. Three kingdoms grapple for power--brutally transforming their
subjects' lives in the process. Amidst betrayals, bargains, and
battles, four young people find their fates forever intertwined:
Cleo: A princess raised in luxury must embark on a rough and
treacherous journey into enemy territory in search of a magic long
thought extinct.
Jonas: Enraged at injustice, a rebel lashes out
against the forces of oppression that have kept his country
impoverished--and finds himself the leader of a people's revolution
centuries in the making.
Lucia: A girl adopted at birth into a
royal family discovers the truth about her past--and the supernatural
legacy she is destined to wield.
Magnus: Bred for aggression and
trained to conquer, a firstborn son begins to realize that the heart
can be more lethal than the sword...
The only outcome that's certain is that kingdoms will fall. Who will emerge triumphant when all they know has collapsed?
The Treachery of Beautiful Things by Ruth Frances Long: A darkly compelling mix of romance, fairy tale, and suspense from a new voice in teen fiction
The
trees swallowed her brother whole, and Jenny was there to see it. Now
seventeen, she revisits the woods where Tom was taken, resolving to say
good-bye at last. Instead, she's lured into the trees, where she finds
strange and dangerous creatures who seem to consider her the
threat. Among them is Jack, mercurial and magnetic, with secrets of his
own. Determined to find her brother, with or without Jack's help, Jenny
struggles to navigate a faerie world where stunning beauty masks some of
the most treacherous evils, and she's faced with a choice between
salvation or sacrifice--and not just her own.
Days of Blood and Starlight by Laini Taylor: Once upon a time, an angel and a devil fell in love and dared to imagine a world free of bloodshed and war.
This is not that world.
Art student and monster's apprentice Karou finally has the answers she has always sought. She knows who she is—and what
she is. But with this knowledge comes another truth she would give
anything to undo: She loved the enemy and he betrayed her, and a world
suffered for it.
In this stunning sequel to the highly acclaimed Daughter of Smoke & Bone, Karou must decide how far she'll go to avenge her people. Filled with heartbreak and beauty, secrets and impossible choices, Days of Blood & Starlight finds Karou and Akiva on opposing sides as an age-old war stirs back to life.
While
Karou and her allies build a monstrous army in a land of dust and
starlight, Akiva wages a different sort of battle: a battle for
redemption. For hope.
But can any hope be salvaged from the ashes of their broken dream?

Silver by Talia Vance: "As I step into the room, a silver flash blurs my vision. Before I can take a breath, the world falls away."
Brianna
has always felt invisible. People stare right past her, including the
one boy she can't resist, Blake Williams. But everything changes at a
house party where Brianna's charm bracelet slips off and time stands
still. In that one frozen, silver moment, Blake not only sees her, he
recognizes something deep inside her she's been hiding even from
herself.
Discovering she is descended from Danu, the legendary
Bandia of Celtic myth, Brianna finds herself questioning the truth of
who she is. And when she accidentally binds her soul to Blake, their
mutual attraction becomes undeniable.
But Blake has his own secret, one that could prove deadly for them both.
Bound
together by forbidden magic, Brianna and Blake find themselves at the
heart of an ancient feud that threatens to destroy their lives and their
love.
Auracle by Gina Rosati: 16 year old Anna Rogan
has a secret she's only shared with her best friend, Rei; she can
astrally project out of her body, allowing her spirit to explore the
world and the far reaches of the universe.
When there's a fatal
accident and her classmate Taylor takes over Anna's body, what was an
exhilarating distraction from her repressive home life threatens to
become a permanent state. Faced with a future trapped in another
dimension, Anna turns to Rei for help. Now the two of them must find a
way to get Anna back into her body and stop Taylor from accusing an
innocent friend of murder. Together Anna and Rei form a plan but it
doesn't take into account the deeper feelings that are beginning to grow
between them.
