In this heartfelt and powerfully affecting coming of age story, a neurodivergent 7th grader is determined to find her missing best friend before it's too late. Things never seem to go as easily for thirteen-year-old Frankie as they do for her sister, Tess. Unlike Tess, Frankie is neurodivergent. In her case, that means she can't stand to be touched, loud noises bother her, she's easily distracted, she hates changes in her routine, and she has to go see a therapist while other kids get to hang out at the beach. It also means Frankie has trouble making friends. She did have one--Colette--but they're not friends anymore. It's complicated. Then, just weeks before the end of seventh grade, Colette unexpectedly shows up at Frankie's door. The next morning, Colette vanishes. Now, after losing Colette yet again, Frankie's convinced that her former best friend left clues behind that only she can decipher, so she persuades her reluctant sister to help her unravel the mystery of Colette's disappearance before it's too late. A powerful story of friendship, sisters, and forgiveness, Tornado Brain is an achingly honest portrait of a young girl trying to find space to be herself.

Set in the summer of 1985, the story follows Stevie, a member of a sign-language group on tour. Amidst her travels, she decides to reach out to renowned radio jockey Casey Kasem, expressing her feelings for her crush in a heartfelt letter intended for a live broadcast. This unique premise explores themes of young love, self-expression, and the power of communication, all while capturing the vibrant spirit of the 1980s.

It started with a bus crash. Daisy Appleby was a little girl when it happened, and she barely remembers the accident or being brought back to life. At that moment, though, she became one of the first subjects in a covert government program that tests a drug called Revive. Now fifteen, Daisy has died and been Revived five times. Each death means a new name, a new city, a new identity. The only constant in Daisy's life is constant change. Then Daisy meets Matt and Audrey McKean, charismatic siblings who quickly become her first real friends. But if she's ever to have a normal life, Daisy must escape from an experiment that's much larger--and more sinister--than she ever imagined. From its striking first chapter to its emotionally charged ending, Cat Patrick's Revived is a riveting story about what happens when life and death collide.

Cosa accadrebbe se ogni giorno ci svegliassimo senza alcuna memoria del nostro passato, se i nostri ricordi non fossero altro che frammenti di futuro? London Lane ha sedici anni e ogni volta che si addormenta sa che al risveglio, l’indomani mattina, il suo mondo sarà svanito. Ogni notte, precisamente alle 4:33, perde ogni traccia della memoria della giornata che ha appena trascorso e quando si risveglia è in grado di “rivivere” solo scene che riguardano il suo futuro. Un diario su cui annotare tutti gli avvenimenti della giornata è l’unico mezzo, insieme al sostegno della sua migliore amica e di sua madre, per tenere insieme la sua vita. Quando London conosce Luke, un nuovo studente del suo liceo, qualcosa dentro di lei cambia: inizia a essere tormentata da strani incubi che sembrano perseguitarla anche durante il giorno. Si tratta di tetre previsioni o traumi legati al passato? La strana forma di amnesia che affligge London può essere in qualche modo curata? Perché non riesce a vedere Luke nel suo futuro?
