Seventeen-year-old Lauren is having visions of girls who have gone missing. And all these girls have just one thing in common—they are 17 and gone without a trace. As Lauren struggles to shake these waking nightmares, impossible questions demand urgent answers: Why are the girls speaking to her? How can she help them? And . . . is she next? As Lauren searches for clues, everything begins to unravel, and when a brush with death lands her in the hospital, a shocking truth emerges, changing everything.

Keep an eye on this space, because starting this Monday I’ll be telling you what debut YA novels I’m dying to read this upcoming summer season (May through August). And not just that…
I’m most excited for my friend Ted’s book, Cold Fury. But to be fair, I don’t know what other books are coming out this summer.
Ooh ooh, just wait then! I’ll be featuring some awesome-sounding debuts.
Honestly I have no clue what books are coming out this summer I normally have time to look but work is so time consuming! Thanks for these post! I’m excited to read this one book though called the Statisistical Probability of Love at First Sight
I’m most excited about SHADOWS CAST BY STARS, by Catherine Knutsson! Looking forward to your posts to discover more awesome debuts to add to my TBR pile.
I can’t wait for Anne Greenwood Brown’s LIES BENEATH!
I’m excited for Origin and NERVE. Those two seem really, really good.
My bad, those books don’t come out until AFTER summer. So in other words, I’m looking forward to what you are featuring!
My Life Next Door by Huntley Fitzpatrick. It just seems… excellent.
I would do just about anything to get my hands on Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo. This book sounds AMAZING.
