(S)kin by Ibi Zoboi
Marisol is a fifteen-year-old girl in Brooklyn who comes from a family of fireball witches, forced to change every new moon even though she wishes she could leave that life behind. When she meets seventeen-year- old Genevieve, who feels a strange hunger and uncovers a secret linking their families, both girls learn that their hidden power could change their lives and relationships in dangerous ways.

A World Worth Saving by Kyle Lukoff
After lockdown ends, A feels more trapped than ever as a trans teen forced to attend a scary support group where his parents refuse to accept him. When his friend Yarrow disappears and A learns the group is run by a real demon feeding on kids’ pain, he must decide if he’s brave enough to fight back and save his friend and maybe the world too.
