Girl in Ice by Erica Ferencik

 

Very unusual -- I think I liked this?

Locust Lane by Stephen Amidon

 

I really liked this. It reminded me of Little Fires Everywhere, but without being derivative. I think it would be a great choice for book groups.

The Existential Worries of Mags Munroe by Jean Grainger

I have a lot of opinions about this.

The Thousandth Floor by Katherine McGee

 

Decent teen futurism.

Decent if you like cozy mysteries, but it seemed like the conclusion was a bit too far-fetched.

Widowland by C. J. Carey

 

A very enjoyable alt-history.

The Villa by Rachel Hawkins

 

Engaging, but I kind of wanted it to end differently. So, overall, decent but not stellar.

Great concept, but the execution was a bit off.
