New hit titles in the Teen Area

• Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo- The author of Shadow and Bone returns to the world of the Grisha with an even darker story. A group tries to pull off an unthinkable heist. 

• Illuminae by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff- You've probably read books in diary format, maybe even in letter format...but have you read a book written in hacked documents, military files, and electronic communication? Illuminae is something new altogether- set in the distant future with inter-planetary wars, plagues, and action- this book has it all. 

• The Rose Society by Marie Lu is the next book in the Young Elites series.

• The Sword of Summer (Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard) by Rick Riordan- Fans of Percy Jackson and Riordan's other works will love his new series following Magnus Chase and dealing with Norse mythology.

• Carry On by Rainbow Rowell- Rowell fans rejoice! Rowell brings to life the characters in her popular novel Fangirl's fanfiction. 

Coming soon...the release date is almost here!

• Soundless- a new stand-alone by Richelle Mead author of the Vampire Academy series!

• Winter by Marissa Meyer (Lunar Chronicles #4)
