FINISHED:
Westerfeld, Scott. (2017). Horizon [Horizon Book 1]. New York: Scholastic.
[A group of kids find themselves stranded on a strange "island" after their plane crashes, with all of the other passengers having mysteriously disappeared. They find a strange device that can mess with gravity, are attacked by vines and odd birds, and can't figure out where they are... there are two moons in the sky... could it be they are on a different planet? Just looked at his blog, and Westerfeld describes it as LOST meets HATCHET meets LORD OF THE FLIES, which is kind of accurate. For some reason, it just didn't completely click with me... and it should have been right up my alley.]
STARTED:
Crowder, Melanie. (2017). Three Pennies. New York: Atheneum/Simon & Schuster.
[Looking forward to this one! AUDACITY and A NEARER MOON were two of my absolute favorites from 2015.]
