An unforgettable story.” —Yamile Saied Méndez, Pura Belpré Award–winning author of Furia, a Reese’s Book Club selection What would you do if everyone you love disappeared? What if it was your fault? For July Fielding, nothing has been the same since that summer before senior year. Once, she had Alex, her loyal best friend, the one who always had her back. She had Sydney, who pushed her during every cross-country run, and who sometimes seemed to know July better than she knew herself. And she had Sam. Sam, who told her she was everything and left her breathless with his touch. Now, July is alone. Every single person in her small town of Lithia has disappeared. No family. No Alex or Sydney. No Sam. July’s only chance at unraveling the mystery of their disappearance is a series of objects, each a reminder of the people she loved most. And a mysterious message: GET TH3M BACK. From the #1 bestselling author of the Matched series, The Only Girl in Town is a searingly candid reckoning with both love and loneliness that perfectly distills the messy, beautiful realities of growing up, growing apart, and the courageous act of self-discovery.

Avgrunden (första delen av två) är en spännande, övernaturlig och mörk berättelse för Stranger Things-fansen och alla andra. Vi får följa fyra tolvåringar som av en slump hamnar mitt i lockande men farlig lek med det övernaturliga. I den täta dimman är havsviken nedanför den branta klippan svår att upptäcka och där faller Nico ner. När de andra till slut hittar honom, upptäcker de samtidigt något annat. En avgrund. När Emma låter sin hand klyva ytan på den tjocka, svarta vätskan, sväljer avgrunden hela henne. Väl uppe igen berättar hon vad hon sett, och ser gestalter hämtade från hennes barndoms minnen. Det visar sig vara hysteriskt roligt att trolla fram skepnader och syner som alla försvinner efter en stund. Men för varje gång verkar det som om varelserna som följer med upp blir större, farligare, otäckare. Och de stannar kvar allt längre, följer med upp på land, bland husen, in i barnens rum. De har väckt något uråldrigt till liv, något som känner till barnens önskningar och drömmar, men även deras hemligheter.
