This stunning debut captures the grotesque madness of a mystical under-land, as
well as a girl’s pangs of first love and independence. Alyssa Gardner hears the
whispers of bugs and flowers—precisely the affliction that landed her mother in
a mental hospital years before. This family curse stretches back to her ancestor
Alice Liddell, the real-life inspiration for Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s
Adventures in Wonderland. Alyssa might be crazy, but she manages to keep it
together. For now.
When her mother’s mental health takes a turn for the worse, Alyssa learns that what she thought was fiction is based in terrifying reality. The real Wonderland is a place far darker and more twisted than Lewis Carroll ever let on. There, Alyssa must pass a series of tests, including draining an ocean of Alice’s tears, waking the slumbering tea party, and subduing a vicious bandersnatch, to fix Alice’s mistakes and save her family. She must also decide whom to trust: Jeb, her gorgeous best friend and secret crush, or the sexy but suspicious Morpheus, her guide through Wonderland, who may have dark motives of his own.

If what you see is what you get, Jules is in serious trouble. The
suspenseful first of four books from the New York Times bestselling
author of the Wake trilogy.
Jules lives with her family above their restaurant, which means she smells
like pizza most of the time and drives their double-meatball-shaped food truck
to school. It’s not a recipe for popularity, but she can handle that.
What she can’t handle is the recurring vision that haunts her. Over and over,
Jules sees a careening truck hit a building and explode...and nine body bags in
the snow.
The vision is everywhere—on billboards, television screens, windows—and she’s
the only one who sees it. And the more she sees it, the more she sees.
The vision is giving her clues, and soon Jules knows what she has to do. Because
now she can see the face in one of the body bags, and it’s someone she knows.
Someone she has been in love with for as long as she can remember.
In this riveting start to a gripping series from New York Times
bestselling author Lisa McMann, Jules has to act—and act fast—to keep her
vision from becoming reality.

Solange Drake has been officially crowned Queen of the Vampires, fulfilling
the centuries old prophecy that foretold the rise to power of a daughter born to
an ancient vampire line. Except Solange's thoughts and actions are no longer her
own-she's been slowly being possessed by the spirit of Viola, the first daughter
born into the Drake line, since her bloodchange. And instead of uniting the
vampire tribes under the rule of an ancient daughter as the prophecy predicted,
Viola would rather destroy them all and enslave humans in a personal vendetta
for the devastation both wrought to her life centuries ago. Can Solange break
her hold in time to save everyone she loves from a vampire civil war, hunter
attack, and each other?
Not everyone will survive the prophecy . . . perhaps not
even her.
