Luminosity
Stephanie Thomas
Blurb:
My name is Beatrice. When I was born, I was blessed with the
Sight. I was immediately removed from my parents and enrolled in the
Institution. At the age of twelve, I had my first true vision, earning my
raven’s wings. And when I turned seventeen, one of my visions came true. Things
haven’t been the same since.
The Institution depends on me to keep the City safe from our
enemy, the Dreamcatchers, but I’m finding it harder to do while keeping a
secret from everyone, including my best friend Gabe. It is a secret that could
put us all in danger. A secret that could kill me and everyone close to me.
But the enemy has been coming to me in my dreams, and I think I’m
falling in love with him. He says they’re coming. He says they’re angry. And I
think I’ve already helped them win.

About Stephanie:
Stephanie Thomas has been writing ever since she could put letters
together to form words. When she was a small child, she would present her
mother and father with self-made newspapers filled up with make believe stories
and pictures. Her love for writing followed her all throughout her schooling,
where she entered and won writing contests of all sorts. Stephanie decided to
become an English teacher and completed her B.A. at The Pennsylvania State
University. While teaching, she later went on to get her Master’s in writing
from The Johns Hopkins University. She completed her very first manuscript during
her graduate studies, and by the end of the program, she had completed two
more. Stephanie is quick to tell anyone that she’s a born and raised
Philadelphian, and her heart will always belong there. She moved to Baltimore
with her husband, and they've been living there for the last five years with
their doggie, Sailor, and their rabbit, Buns (aka “T Sizzle).

Melissa West
Blurb:
In the future, only one rule will matter:
Don’t. Ever. Peek.
Seventeen-year-old Ari Alexander just broke that rule and saw the last person she expected hovering above her bed — arrogant Jackson Locke, the most popular boy in her school. She expects instant execution or some kind of freak alien punishment, but instead, Jackson issues a challenge: help him, or everyone on Earth will die.
Ari knows she should report him, but everything about Jackson makes her question what she’s been taught about his kind. And against her instincts, she’s falling for him. But Ari isn’t just any girl, and Jackson wants more than her attention. She’s a military legacy who’s been trained by her father and exposed to war strategies and societal information no one can know — especially an alien spy, like Jackson. Giving Jackson the information he needs will betray her father and her country, but keeping silent will start a war.
