About the Books:

If Looks Could Kill by JULIE BERRY

It’s autumn 1888, and Jack the Ripper is on the run. As London police close in, he flees England for New York City seeking new victims. But a primal force of female vengeance has had enough. With serpents for hair and a fearsome gaze, an awakened Medusa is hunting for one thing: Jack.

Other dangers lurk in Manhattan’s Bowery. Salvation Army volunteers Tabitha and Pearl discover that a girl they once helped has been forced to work in a local brothel.  The pair's already brittle partnership is tested as they mount a rescue effort, only to find their fates entwine with Medusa’s and Jack’s.

Hollow by TAYLOR GROTHE

Cassie Davis has returned to her hometown in upstate New York. She does so after a meltdown in her school cafeteria -- and with an unwanted autism diagnosis. 

There's a distance between her and the friends that she left behind. And when a camping trip intended to bridge that divide ends in a fight, Cassie wakes up to a barren campsite. Alone. 

With a storm approaching, she finds herself rescued by a boy named Kaleb, and whisked away to a compound of artists and outcasts which he calls the Roost. Here, she feels like she can be herself for the first time. But there are strange noises in the night, things happening all around the compound, and it all begs the question: Are the dangers in the forest, on the trail, or in the Roost itself?

They Called Us Wicked by GLORIA MUŇOZ

They’re a coven of four: Lucy, who can hear a whisper in a crowded room. Clara, who can read your innermost thoughts. Fabiola, who can see the future. And Sirena, who can manipulate your every emotion. They’ve been best friends since they met on the astral plane as kids, each of them hiding their gifts from the world.  But they’ve never met in the real world…until now. 

As a new student at the prestigious Fletcher University, Lucy is looking forward to a perfect freshman year full of in-person coven hangs and covert witchy fun. But when her roommate disappears, Lucy knows it’s up to her and her coven to investigate—that is, if they can make time for occult recon amid college classes, flirty crushes, and friendship group growing pains.
