Another Indie FavoriteLying in Wait: A Novel, by Liz Nugent (Gallery/Scout Press, $16) “Liz Nugent returns with another riveting tale of intrigue and domestic drama. Teenage Laurence suspects that his father might be involved in the mysterious death of a young woman. After his father suddenly dies, Laurence becomes even more bound by the smothering love of his overly attentive mother. When Laurence falls in love with the dead girl’s sister, lies ensue, complications arise, and the hidden depths of evil lurking in the manor house are exposed. Readers will be mesmerized by Lying in Wait, and the ending is so devious that it will knock your socks off.” —Pamela Klinger-Horn, Excelsior Bay Books, Excelsior, MN

EARLY & MIDDLE GRADE READERS YOUNG ADULT

For Teen Readers Rayne & Delilah’s Midnite Matinee, by Jeff Zentner (Crown Books for Young Readers, $17.99) “This is a story of true friendship, of joy and laughter, of loss and pain, of heartbreak and love, and in the end it’s a story of growth and hope. Josie and Delia each hold half of my heart. I saw different parts of myself in them in deep ways; their words felt like my own stolen from a place where I feared to speak them aloud. This book left me laughing with tears streaming down my face and warmth in my heart!” —Meghan Vanderlee, Schuler Books, Grand Rapids, MI
For Ages 9 to 12 The Moon Within, by Aida Salazar (Arthur A. Levine Books, $17.99) “An absolute gem! Aida Salazar perfectly captures the anxiety, excitement, and embarrassment that come with middle school. Celi slowly grows into a better understanding of her mother’s hopes for her and what it means to be a good friend. Her moon ceremony—at first a strange and new idea—becomes an opportunity to show her strength and the person she is becoming. Beautiful and powerful.” —Cecilia Cackley, East City Bookshop, Washington, DC
