We Were Liars, by E. Lockhart (2013)
Welcome to the beautiful Sinclair family.
No one is a criminal.
No one is an addict.
No one is a failure.
The Sinclairs are athletic, tall, and handsome. We are old-money Democrats. Our smiles are wide, our chins square, and our tennis serves aggressive.
Cadence narrates the story of her wealthy family's summers on their private island. Three cousins and a friend, fifteen glorious summers. Until something happens.
Well written, mysterious.
* language, sexual inferences, alcohol

Just One Year, by Gayle Forman (2013)
It's the dream I always have: I'm on a plane, high above the clouds. The plan starts to descend, and I have this sudden panic because I just know that I'm on the wrong plane, am traveling to the wrong place.
This companion to Just One Day is narrated from Willem's point of view. After he was attacked on the streets of Paris, all he can think about is Lulu and their day together. He doesn't even know her real name, so how can he find her? How can he find himself?

Hollow City (Book 2 of Miss Peregrine's Peculiar Children series), by Ransom Riggs (2014)
We rowed through the harbor, past bobbing boats weeping rust from their seams, past juries of silent seabirds roosting atop the barnacled remains of sunken docks, past fishermen who lowered their nets to stare frozenly as we slipped by, uncertain whether we were real or imagined; a procession of waterborne ghosts, or ghosts soon to be.
Hollow City begins where Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children left off. Jacob Portman and his friends make the treacherous journey from Wales to London to find a cure for their beloved Miss Peregrine. But it's 1940s England, and wights and hollows lurk everywhere.
This is a page-turner!
