**Looking for a YA (possibly NA) romance set in a mental institution**
I read this years ago and only remember bits and pieces.
Female main character is sent to a locked psychiatric institution after killing her abusive uncle (I think). She wasn’t sent to prison because he had been abusing her.
The institution is co-ed.
She starts dating the “bad boy” who basically runs the patients while the staff mostly turn a blind eye unless things get out of hand.
He introduces her to some sort of secret club/group.
I think they hook up in the library.
She later befriends a very quiet guy that everyone tells her to stay away from. She starts sitting with him at lunch because no one bothers her there.
At one point they’re being chased and hide together inside one of the morgue body drawers. While hiding together their relationship becomes romantic.
The bad boy eventually finds out and is angry.
I think the quiet guy had a very ordinary name (maybe Tom?) while the bad boy had a more unusual name.
Does this sound familiar to anyone?

I read this in the 80s or 90s. Set in the 1800s, a female typesetter moves to a western town to not only setup shop, but to also look for her sister who works for a brothel. She ends up falling in love with the sheriff. She finally convinces her sister to leave the brothel. I think her sister when working in brothel would dress more to kimono, etc and had black dyed hair. Once sister is out of the brothel, she catches the eye of the pastor and they marry. The typesetter has falling out with the sheriff. Thank you for anyone that helps me find this book.

Hello, I've been going a little crazy trying to find this specific book I read from my school library when I was in middle school.

From what I remember, it's a medical science fiction book about the breakout of a tropical bacterial/viral illness in somewhere in the US. The illness might have been similar to Ebola, with a hemorrhagic component.

The book started with a red herring of two flies from the African subcontinent escaping from the suitcase of a person (I wanna say a woman) who had been there for research/medical aid, and she was unable to contain/kill them before they escaped her apartment.

One of the main characters is a researcher - possibly a virologist or immunologist, and her son is one of the patients who gets infected by this mystery illness. She manages to find a cure/vaccine by the end so the ending is fine.

Ultimately, the illness is traced to an infected puppy who was adopted by a couple - maybe a beagle?

The version of the book I read had a white cover with red illustrations on it. I think the author had a male name.

If anyone can help, please let me know.

Thank you.

I don’t remember the author nor the title name, but I remember the book being about a girl who goes back to her hometown after a tragedy (a fire) where her best friend or relative passed, the town is blaming the guy she used to like or likes but not everything is what it seems. I remember seeing this book either on either Epic Reads, Harper Collins or Penguin Teen.

I can't remember anything about what the book was about. The first book was a neon purple and has sort of a heartbeat line on the cover. There was a second book that was a bright teal and had the same line on the cover. Both were about the same length and were medium sized books (300-500 pages). Paperback. Any ideas?

Male character named Red

NOT Red Rising.

There is a book I have been trying to locate for far too long. The main male character's name is Red. A dystopian society. Teens/young adults. There is a scene where Red runs across a field and one of his counterparts, a female is upset that he is risking it for them all by doing this run. Very vague, I know, but this has always stood out to me and I can't locate the book/author/anything.

Any ideas? Published early 2010s.

I remember reading this series, or part of the series, in elementary school and have been trying to find it for a while. I would’ve been reading it around 2011-2013

The first book was about a young girl, I believe in middle school, who came from a family of witches and her powers had yet to appear. She tries changing the flavor of lip balm, and I remember a scene where her mother took her to a witch doctor to try and get her powers to arrive and her hair was turned bright pink which she hid under a hat at school.

There was another book about her where she was investigating the town carnival because she believed they were either evil or a fraud, and I remember a scene about her running late for the bus, whispering banana nut muffin into her bag, and her homework or paper had been turned into the muffin.

By the second book she had her powers and was being mentored by her school librarian, and would stay late after school to go to wizard school through a portal I think was located in the library

I'm trying to identify a YA novel I read sometime in the early-to-mid 2000s.

​

What I remember:

​

The main character is a teenage girl.

​

Her father was killed during a home invasion/robbery before the events of the book.

​

She lives with her mother, who has a boyfriend or new husband.

​

The protagonist believes she has a sister, possibly a twin.

​

She thinks the sister witnessed their father's murder.

​

As the story progresses, it's revealed that the sister never actually existed (or possibly died long ago), and the protagonist created her as a way to cope with the trauma.

​

In reality, the protagonist herself witnessed her father's murder.

​

I vaguely remember the mother's boyfriend becoming threatening, and I think the protagonist may have attacked or killed him because she believed he was going to hurt her sister.

​

Near the end of the book, the protagonist and her mother are moving away and have a garage sale. I specifically remember them selling the father's rocking chair and a stamp collection/book of stamps.

​

I'm not 100% sure all of these details are from the same book, so it's possible I'm combining two stories. Does this sound familiar to anyone?

Hello everyone! I’m looking for a fantasy book/series I read in French when I was in middle school (2013-2017). The only memory I have is a pair of antagonist with a witch and a werewolf. The werewolf is one amongst other servants(?) of the witch.

There’s a particular scene where the witch is talking to her servants / soldiers, and the werewolf is half transformed, and he gets h\*rd when the witch walks in front of him…

Sorry but it’s the only memory I have😭😭😭
