Guardians, final book of the Wasteland trilogy by Susan Kim and Laurence Klavan
The Emmy
Award-nominated and Edgar Award-winning duo of Susan Kim and Laurence
Klavan deliver a heart-pounding finale to the postapocalyptic teen world
of the Wasteland, filled with dramatic twists and turns. Bestselling
author of Criminal, Karin Slaughter, called Wasteland "a Lord of the Flies for future generations. An irresistible page-turner."
No one dares to leave the
District—the towering structure of glass and steel that is their
protection against the unruly bands of Outsiders that roam Mundreel and
the deadly rain that carries the disease that kills all over the age of
nineteen.
This skyscraper stands amid the
urban devastation, the city rumored to have once been called "Montreal."
Esther and her allies have created a haven on the rooftop, a garden
that flourishes, and a home for her new baby, hidden from all but the
very few who know her secret. But as Gideon's power grows and factions
form, the ultimate darkness is born from greed, and Esther must find a
way to save the citizens from themselves.
In the Time of Dragon Moon, book three of the Wilde Island Chronicles by Janet Lee Carey
On the southernmost tip of Wilde
Island—far from the Dragonswood sanctuary and the Pendragon Castle—live
the native Euit people. Uma, who is half Euit and half English, and not
fully accepted by her tribe, wants to become a healer like her Euit
father. But the mad English queen in the north, desperate for another
child, kidnaps Uma and her father and demands that he cure her
barrenness. After her father dies, Uma must ensure that the queen is
with child by the time of the Dragon Moon, or be burned at the stake.
Terrified and alone, Uma reaches out to her only possible ally: the king's nephew Jackrun, a fiery dragonrider with dragon, fairy, and human blood. Together, they must navigate through a sea of untold secrets, unveil a dark plot spawned long ago in Dragonswood, and find a way to accept all the elements—Euit, English, dragon, and fairy—that make them who they are.

The Haunting of Sunshine Girl, book one of The Haunting of Sunshine Girl series by Paige McKenzie with Alyssa Sheinmel
Shortly after her sixteenth birthday, Sunshine Griffith and her mother
Kat move from sunny Austin, Texas, to the rain-drenched town of
Ridgemont, Washington. Though Sunshine is adopted, she and her mother
have always been close, sharing a special bond filled with laughter and
inside jokes. But from the moment they arrive, Sunshine feels her world
darken with an eeriness she cannot place. And even if Kat doesn’t
recognize it, Sunshine knows that something about their new house is
just ... creepy.
In the days that follow, things
only get stranger. Sunshine is followed around the house by an icy
breeze, phantom wind slams her bedroom door shut, and eventually, the
laughter Sunshine hears on her first night evolves into sobs. She can
hardly believe it, but as the spirits haunting her house become more
frightening—and it becomes clear that Kat is in danger—Sunshine must
accept what she is, pass the test before her, and save her mother from a
fate worse than death.
The Wicked Will Rise, book one of the Dorothy Must Die by Danielle Paige
In this sequel to the New York Times bestselling Dorothy Must Die, who is good—and who is actually Wicked?
My name is Amy Gumm—and I'm the other girl from Kansas.
After a tornado swept through my trailer park, I ended up in Oz.
But it wasn't like the Oz I knew
from books and movies. Dorothy had returned, but she was now a ruthless
dictator. Glinda could no longer be called the Good Witch. And the
Wicked Witches who were left? They'd joined forces as the Revolutionary
Order of the Wicked, and they wanted to recruit me.
My mission? Kill Dorothy.
Except my job as assassin didn't
work out as planned. Dorothy is still alive. The Order has vanished. And
the home I couldn't wait to leave behind might be in danger.
Somehow, across a twisted and
divided land, I have to find the Order, protect the true ruler of Oz,
take Dorothy and her henchmen down—and try to figure out what I'm really
doing here.
Note: Looks like book 3 won't be out until 2017.
