A Court of Thorns and Roses — Sarah J. Maas

19-year-old Feyre's only concern is keeping her father and sisters fed, but a hunting trip in the forest that separates the human realm from that of the Faerie realm goes awry when she comes across a wolf that might not be of her world at all. Killing the wolf proves to be the most risky choice Feyre has ever made, when a shapeshifting Faerie comes across the wall to take her back with him: a life for a life, in exchange for the disguised Faerie she murdered in the woods. As Feyre adjusts to her new home in Prythian, she finds out that all she has known of the Faeries may not be as it seems - and she is plunged into a war that began long before her birth. Can she survive as a mere mortal girl in the world of Faeries, or will she be ripped apart like so many before her?

Please Ignore Vera Dietz — A.S. King

When Vera loses her best friend, Charlie, in an apparent suicide after he leaves her for the wrong crowd, everyone expects her to mourn. Nobody expects her to take up drinking in her father's footsteps, or to start seeing visions of Charlie everywhere she goes: in bathrooms, in the car, on her eyelids when she sleeps. He's begging her to clear his name, to find the truth about his death. Can she set aside the hurt he left her with long enough to clear his name - and what will she find out about herself in the process?
