"When a boy moves into his late grandfather's mansion, he discovers eerie spell books, creepy dolls, and strange noises. But one doll feels especially off-maybe it's nothing, or maybe it's…watching. This creepy middle grade read is perfect for fans of the Goosebumps series. Garrett never met his grandfather, Burke, but he's heard the stories from his mother. Burke was an enormously successful writer, but he was also notoriously cruel, especially to his family. After he passes away suddenly, Garrett and his mother are told that his enormous fortune is hers…if they agree to spend a week at his estate. The house is a monument to Burke's obsession with puppet-like dolls, and the attic is packed with cryptic notes and ancient books. It's clear that his grandfather was up to something, but Garrett can only guess what, and his fear only deepens when he finds a creepily detailed doll with 'Marion' written on the foot. As the week progresses, Garrett realizes that the house isn't what it seems. An old typewriter clicks away on its own. There are sounds in the night that come from the basement. And strangest of all is Marion, who always seems to be watching..."

High school senior Mayte has never been kissed, but it hardly matters. Her abuelita has cancer, her half sister with special needs has moved in, and college is off the table-family comes first. She keeps her problems to herself; why burden everyone she loves with more? Meanwhile, fellow senior Auggie is set on attending an elite creative writing program. But as the self-proclaimed most boring person alive, he can't exactly write the next great American novel when he's struggling to write a short story for college applications. After an awful blind date ("disaster" doesn't even begin to describe it), Mayte and Auggie never want to see each other again. When forced together by their merging social circles, the pair must at least pretend to get along…but soon they develop actual feelings. Then tragedy strikes Mayte's family. Auggie feels compelled to write her story to help her process and heal-but are his intentions truly selfless? The best story he's ever written could impact the best friendships he's ever had.
