DEBUTANTES
HARRISON, CORA
Skylight Books – Hotlist Fall 2012
It's 1923 and London is a whirl of jazz, dancing and parties. Violet, Daisy, Poppy and Rose Derrington are
desperate to be part of it, but stuck in an enormous crumbling house in the country, with no money and no
fashionable dresses, the excitement seems a lifetime away. Luckily the girls each have a plan for escaping their
humdrum country life: Rose wants to be a novelist, Poppy a jazz musician and Daisy a famous film director.
Violet, however, has only one ambition: to become the perfect Debutante, so that she can go to London and
catch the eye of Prince George, the most eligible bachelor in the country. But a house as big and old as Beech
Grove Manor hides many secrets, and Daisy is about to uncover one so huge it could ruin all their plans - ruin
everything - forever.

DEFIANCE
REDWINE, C.J.
Within the walls of Baalboden, beneath the shadow of the city's brutal leader, Rachel Adams has a secret. While
other girls sew dresses, host dinner parties, and obey their male Protectors, Rachel knows how to survive in the
wilderness and deftly wield a sword. When her father, Jared, fails to return from a courier mission and is
declared dead, the Commander assigns Rachel a new Protector, her father's apprentice, Logan--the same boy
Rachel declared her love for two years ago, and the same boy who handed her heart right back to her. Left with
nothing but fierce belief in her father's survival, Rachel decides to escape and find him herself. But treason
against the Commander carries a heavy price, and what awaits her in the Wasteland could destroy her. At
nineteen, Logan McEntire is many things. Orphan. Outcast. Inventor. As apprentice to the city's top courier,
Logan is focused on learning his trade so he can escape the tyranny of Baalboden. But his plan never included
being responsible for his mentor's impulsive daughter. Logan is determined to protect her, but when his escape
plan goes wrong and Rachel pays the price, he realizes he has more at stake than disappointing Jared.
