Book Description
A boy who lives every day twice uses his ability to bring down bullies at his new school in Mike Thayer's humor-filled middle grade novel, The Double Life of Danny Day. My name is Danny Day, and I live every day twice. The first time, it’s a “discard day.” It’s kind of like a practice run. At the end of the day, I go to bed, wake up, and poof everything gets reset, everything except my memory, that is. The second time, everything is normal, just like it is for everyone else. That’s when everything counts and my actions stick. As you could probably guess, “Sticky Day” Danny is very different from “Discard Day” Danny. When Danny’s family moves across the country, he suddenly has to use his ability for more than just slacking off and playing video games. Now he's making new friends, fending off jerks, exposing a ring of cheaters in the lunchtime video game tournament, and taking down bullies one day at a time ... or is it two days at a time?

Book Description
In this action-packed techno-thriller, a routine computer cleanup sets off an electrifying quest for an enigmatic—and deadly—treasure. After selling his dorm-room startup for millions and effectively retiring at the age of twenty-five, Alex Fife is eager for a new challenge. When he agrees to clean up an old PC as a favor, he never expects to find the adventure of a lifetime waiting for him inside the machine. But as he rummages through old emails, Alex stumbles upon a startling discovery: The previous owner, a shady antiques smuggler, had been trying to unload a mysterious object known as the Florentine on the black market. And with the dealer’s untimely passing, the Florentine is now unaccounted for and ripe for the taking. Alex dives headfirst into a hunt for the priceless object. What starts out as a seemingly innocuous pursuit quickly devolves into a nightmare when Alex discovers the true technological nature of the Florentine. Not just a lost treasure, it’s something far more insidious: a weapon that could bring the developed world to its knees. Alex races through subterranean grottos, freezing morgues, and hidden cellars in the dark underbelly of Los Angeles, desperate to find the Florentine before it falls into the wrong hands. Because if nefarious forces find it first, there’ll be nothing Alex—or anyone else—can do to prevent a catastrophic attack. Leading security specialist Carey Nachenberg delivers expert technical details in this gripping, highly entertaining cyber thrill ride—perfect for fans of Neal Stephenson and William Gibson.

Book Description
Hitchhiking is a bad idea but desperate times call for desperate measures, and Caden is desperate if nothing else. When she accepts a ride from the first car to come by she meets Gabriel. He's her age, hot, and the closest thing she has to a savior. Problem is, he is a total jerk. With nowhere to go, Caden convinces him to let her stay with him for one night. Gabriel reluctantly lends a couch. That night Caden wakes up to strange noises. Concerned, she rushes into Gabriel's room, already anticipating his bad temper. Instead, he's kind, sweet, and suspiciously harmless-nothing like the man who gave her a ride. He seems like a different person altogether, and claims he is. It is only a matter of time before Caden realizes he suffers from sleep walking, or maybe even something more serious. She doesn't know yet but by night he is Tom, and by day he is Gabriel. Caden finds herself drawn to Tom and the mystery of who he is. For Gabriel, Caden is an annoying mistake. One night turns into many, and despite all his anger towards her, she stays. She even seems to accept him and his flaws, but he still doesn't trust her-she knows too much about him, even though he hasn't shared anything. When he drops his guard and kisses her, she calls him Tom. Furious and hurt, he demands an explanation. When she explains that he becomes Tom at night, Gabriel realizes that Caden has stayed for Tom, not him. Crushed, he kicks her out, knowing-hoping-she'll return. But if she does, will it be for him? Or will she come with a different agenda? One that may destroy him.

Sam collapses during the quake only to wake up in Avalon, a parallel world to his own, where the magical power of aether flows through and is used by all living creatures, except for Sam.Sam is so aether-repelent, in fact, that he destroys the stuff on contact, which is something of a major concern for the tyrannical Emperor of Avalon who has spent his entire reign amassing more aether than all his subjects combined. Sam's only hope of returning home lies with meeting the Emperor head on and draining the tyrant of his power. To do that, Sam will have to unite the people of Avalon and use his whole bag of technological tricks...and post about it on YouTube and Facebook. Oh, and not get killed. That's important too.
