RODRIGUES, CARMEN<br />

Skylight Books – Hotlist Fall 2012<br />

There was something about Ellie…Something dangerous. Charismatic. Broken. Jake looked out for her. Sarah<br />

followed her lead. And Jess kept her distance—and kept watch. Now Ellie’s dead, and Jake, Sarah, and Jess are<br />

left to pick up the pieces. All they have are thirty-four clues she left behind. Thirty-four strips of paper hidden in a<br />

box beneath her bed. Thirty-four secrets of a brief and painful life. Jake, Sarah, and Jess all feel responsible for<br />

what happened to Ellie, and all three have secrets of their own. As they confront the past, they will discover not<br />

only the darkest truths about themselves, but also what Ellie herself had been hiding all along….<br />

ADAPTATION<br />

LO, MALINDA<br />

Across North America, flocks of birds hurl themselves into airplanes, causing at least a dozen to crash.<br />

Thousands of people die. Fearing terrorism, the United States government grounds all flights, and millions of<br />

travelers are stranded. Reese and her debate team partner and longtime crush David are in Arizona when it<br />

happens. Everyone knows the world will never be the same. On their drive home to San Francisco, along a<br />

stretch of empty highway at night in the middle of Nevada, a bird flies into their headlights. The car flips over.<br />

When they wake up in a military hospital, the doctor won't tell them what happened, where they are--or how<br />

they've been miraculously healed. Things become even stranger when Reese returns home. San Francisco feels<br />

like a different place with police enforcing curfew, hazmat teams collecting dead birds, and a strange presence<br />

that seems to be following her. When Reese unexpectedly collides with the beautiful Amber Gray, her search for<br />

the truth is forced in an entirely new direction--and threatens to expose a vast global conspiracy that the<br />

government has worked for decades to keep secret.<br />

AFTER<br />

DATLOW, ELLEN<br />

If the melt-down, flood, plague, the third World War, new Ice Age, Rapture, alien invasion, clamp-down, meteor,<br />

or something else entirely hit today, what would tomorrow look like? Some of the biggest names in YA and adult<br />

literature answer that very question in this short story anthology, each story exploring the lives of teen<br />

protagonists raised in catastrophe's wake—whether set in the days after the change, or decades far in the<br />

future.<br />
