Everything's Not Lost
"A heart-wrenching yet vividly hopeful novel about a Black girl's struggle to find the quiet beauty in life and friendship amid the chaos of grief and mental illness by New York Times, USA Today, and Indie bestselling author Frederick Joseph. 'Frederick is such a grounded and beautiful voice of not just this moment but all the moments. Everything's Not Lost cements him firmly as a much needed and stunning voice inside the world of YA literature.' -Jacqueline Woodson, winner of the Hans Christian Andersen Award As a sixteen-year-old Black girl with bipolar disorder, Ella Washington has plenty stacked against her. But following her beloved sister's unexpected death and its turbulent aftermath, Ella is desperate to find any sense of normalcy. Worse still, someone at her school is determined to drive her deeper into despair. It feels nearly impossible to find her way out of the fog of grief and loneliness, but through her love of art, some unlikely new friends, and the memory of her sister, Ella slowly learns that the pursuit of happiness and forgiveness is an endeavor that is more than worthwhile. Told in Frederick Joseph's perceptive and lyrical voice, Everything's Not Lost is an achingly relatable story about finding points of light even in the darkest of times."

The Revenge Playbook
"In this deliciously twisty YA novel, two girls (read: enemies) at a boarding school must team up to take down the boy who hurt them-perfect for fans of Ace of Spades and Do Revenge. Uyai and Fiyin may be roommates at Blue Waters Secondary School, but they are not friends. Uyai is popular and fierce-she dominates every room she walks into. Fiyin is nerdy and quiet-she's easy to miss. Anyone who knows them (assuming they know who Fiyin is at all) would argue that, besides that shared dorm room, the two girls have absolutely nothing in common. But they do. Because both girls have been hurt. Humiliated. Taken advantage of. And both girls have just one boy to blame for it. Fiyin thinks Uyai is an irresponsible mean girl. Uyai thinks Fiyin is an uptight loser. They both think the boy that hurt them deserves to suffer. But taking down one of the most popular guys in school isn't a one-woman task. If they want to get their revenge before graduation, Uyai and Fiyin will need each other's help-regardless of how they feel about each other. After all, you don't need to be friends to be teammates."
