A School For Unusual Girls
Romance · Teen + Young Adult · Historical Romance · Regency Romance
Our take
Kathleen Baldwin’s A School for Unusual Girls—called “completely original and totally engrossing” by Meg Cabot—mixes Regency romance and espionage with 4.5 out of 5 stars on Amazon. At Stranje House, rebellious girls are trained as spies, not wives, and Georgie must partner with a dashing inventor to help win a war without losing her heart.
Choose your retailer
About the book
In 1814, Britain is at war on four fronts, Europe is in ruins, and Stranje House hides one of England’s most dangerous secrets. Officially, it’s where rebellious young ladies are “reformed” into perfect society wives. In reality, Headmistress Emma Stranje trains them as spies and diplomats.
After setting her father’s stables ablaze during a scientific experiment, Miss Georgiana Fitzwilliam is sent to Stranje House. Georgie has no interest in becoming a docile debutante—she plans to escape.
But when she’s paired with the infuriatingly brilliant Lord Sebastian Wyatt to develop invisible ink for the war effort, plans change. Soon she’s navigating espionage, sabotage, and a war that could consume them both.
Because in this school, survival means learning to fight with brains, bravery, and maybe even your heart.

Carry On
LGBTQIA+ · Romantasy · Teen + Young Adult
Our take
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Rainbow Rowell, Carry On blends ghost story, love story, and magical mystery with 4.6 out of 5 stars on Amazon. Chosen One Simon Snow can’t control his magic, his mentor’s avoiding him, and his vampire roommate-slash-nemesis might just be the most dangerous distraction of all.
Choose your retailer
About the book
Simon Snow is the worst Chosen One ever—just ask his vampire roommate and sworn nemesis, Baz. Not that Baz is around to say it; he hasn’t even bothered showing up for their final year at Watford School of Magicks.
Simon can’t get his wand to cooperate, accidentally sets things on fire, and his mentor’s ghosting him. Oh, and there’s a magic-eating monster on the loose… wearing Simon’s face.
Between the mysterious creature, a broken heart, and a missing nemesis, Simon’s last year is shaping up to be a disaster. But when Baz finally turns up, secrets unravel, alliances shift, and Simon’s biggest problem might not be the monster, it might be how he feels about Baz.
Because sometimes the real magic is the trouble you didn’t see coming.

About the book
Kimberly has ultimate cosmic power, but try putting that on a résumé without a diploma. Until she graduates from the secret Blackhollow Academy, she’s stuck slinging coffee, dodging bills, and living with her mom. There’s just one problem: no diploma without a familiar.
As an illusionist, summoning one is impossible. Her only shot is convincing a supernatural creature to let her bind it. And why settle for a cat or a raven when a dragon—complete with treasure hoard—might be game?
Enter a legendary, sarcastic, and very much unbindable dragon who sees through every one of her tricks.
The magi want to control her. Others want her gone for good. If she fails, her future goes up in smoke. But what if the dragon has plans of his own?
