TILT
HOPKINS, ELLEN
Skylight Books – Hotlist Fall 2012
Three teens, three stories—all interconnected through their parents’ family relationships. As the adults pull away,
caught up in their own dilemmas, the lives of the teens begin to tilt….Mikayla, almost eighteen, is over-the-top in
love with Dylan, who loves her back jealously. But what happens to that love when Mikayla gets pregnant the
summer before their senior year—and decides to keep the baby? Shane turns sixteen that same summer and
falls hard in love with his first boyfriend, Alex, who happens to be HIV positive. Shane has lived for four years
with his little sister’s impending death. Can he accept Alex’s love, knowing that his life, too, will be shortened?
Harley is fourteen—a good girl searching for new experiences, especially love from an older boy. She never
expects to hurdle toward self-destructive extremes in order to define who she is and who she wants to be. Love,
in all its forms, has crucial consequences in this standalone novel.

Sparrowhawk, comes to steal the Tombs’ greatest hidden treasure, the Ring of Erreth-Akbe. Tenar’s duty is to
protect the Ring, but Ged possesses the light of magic and tales of a world that Tenar has never known. Will

THE TURNING
PROSE, FRANCINE
Jack is babysitting for the summer on an isolated island with no Wi-Fi, no cell service, and no one else around
but a housekeeper and two very peculiar children. He immediately senses something sinister—and it’s not just
the creepy black house he’s living in. Soon he is feeling terribly isolated and alone, but then he discovers there
are others. The problem is, he’s the only who can see them. As secrets are revealed and darker truths surface,
Jack desperately struggles to maintain a grip on reality. He knows what he sees, and he isn’t crazy…Or is he?
