Author(s) and Guest(s)
Andrew Smith
Andrew Smith’s sequel to the spooky and unsettling young adult adventure The Marbury Lens is Passenger (Feiwel & Friends, $17.99). Best friends Jack and Conner can’t stay away from Marbury. It’s partly because of their obsession with this alternate world and the unresolved war that still wages there. But it’s also because forces in Marbury—including the darkest of the dark, who were not revealed in The Marbury Lens—are beckoning the boys back in order to save their friends . . . and themselves. Smith is the author of the novels Ghost Medicine, In the Path of Falling Objects, and Stick.
Jenny Han
Co-written by Siobhan Vivian and Jenny Han, the young adult novel Burn for Burn ( Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers, $17.99) is set in postcard-perfect Jar Island is home to charming tourist shops, pristine beaches, amazing oceanfront homes—and three girls secretly plotting revenge against those who have wronged them. Alone, the girls are bitter and ineffective; together, anything is possible. Vivian is the author of the young adult novel The List, as well as Not That Kind of Girl, Same Difference, and A Little Friendly Advice. Han is the author of Shug, The Summer I Turned Pretty, It’s Not Summer Without You, and We’ll Always Have Summer.
