|title= Cuckoo
|rating= 5
|genre= Teens
|summary= Jake is a household name thanks to his role on the UK's most popular soap opera. But his character went upstairs to his bedroom six months ago and never came down again, and now Jake is facing an uncertain future. Add to that his dad's anger issues, the family's precarious finances and the demands of a severely autistic brother; Jake's home feels like a powder keg waiting to explode. It's easier to spend nights on friends' sofas and futons, but what happens when you feel like a cuckoo in every nest?

|title= All About The Hype
|rating= 5
|genre= Teens
|summary= Jessie Jefferson, daughter of rockstar Johnny Jefferson whom I first got to know in the excellent [[Johnny be Good by Paige Toon]] has left the UK behind to move to the City of Angels and be with her long-lost, recently-rediscovered father. As the third book in the ''Jessie'' offshoot, there's a bit of back story to be had but long story short, she grew up not knowing about him, but then her mother died in horrible circumstances and one thing led to another and it all came out in the wash. Now, a year later, Jessie is living with Johnny, her step mum Meg and her two half-brothers.

|title= Gold
|rating= 5
|genre= Confident Readers
|summary=Twins Starn and Esper are growing up in a world made dark and silent by massive volcanic explosions. Ash now covers the planet and every aspect of life is controlled by the government, policed by the strict, heavy-handed Sagittars. They long for sunshine, fresh air and the freedom of a life only vaguely remembered by a few. But a game of dares leads them to discover an ancient book written by their great-great aunt, filled with strange writing and a treasure map. This propels them headlong into a journey across the darkened skies in a hand-built glider, in search of the gold that will vastly improve their lives. What they find there is a hidden world; one left behind when the volcanoes exploded. The revelation of the gold is not at all what they thought it would be, and is a discovery that could expose the governments' lies and save a dying planet.

|summary= After two years of pain following his mum's death, Stewart is pleased his dad has found someone else and he's 89.9% excited that he and his dad are moving in with Ashley and her mom. Ashley, however, is 110% horrified at the prospect of a new 'blended' family. She's still dealing with her parent's breakup and the revelation that her dad is gay. She's simply not prepared for a new step-dad and his geeky, socially clueless, son.
