  When Luis joins his new baseball team, the Manatees, things seem hopeless at 
  first. Some of his new teammates— including “loud and obnoxious” home-run 
  slugger Jimmie—are mean to him or to each other. His new coach doesn’t tell the 
  players everything to do like his old coach did. And some of the Manatees seem 
  more interested in goofing off than in working hard. Then Coach Joe makes Luis 
  team captain. Will Luis rise to the challenge? Can he get the Manatees to balance 
  working hard and having fun? Will he help his teammates learn to be friends rather 
  than compete? 
  Baseball Buddies explores the power of working together, what it takes to build a 
  team, and the lasting friendships that form on the baseball field.

  With the help of magical Oddities, like a Pistol that never misses, Clover and her friends face a new danger, the ravenous Underking, in this riveting sequel to Oddity. 
    
  Despite Clover’s victory over the destructive Seamstress, war continues to rage between the fledgling Unified States and Napoléon Bonaparte. Clover and Nessa, former snake-oil salesgirl, join the Women’s Service League expecting to dole out soup and socks to invalids and orphans. Instead, under the direction of the wealthy and mysterious Miss Yamada, they’re tasked with rooting out the last of the pestilential Vermin—vicious creatures animated by magic, such as squirrel skins stuffed with nails, who have been terrorizing the countryside. But when the group is attacked by a new kind of monster—a sharp-toothed harehound with bloodshot eyes—they discover a much greater threat lurks: the grotesque Underking and his army of twisted creatures. With the help of a Paper-Doll Witch, an elegantly dressed skeleton, a girl bearing a Quilt with threatening properties, and Susanna the bad-tempered Doll, Clover and Nessa must defeat the Underking before he conquers the whole land. This follow-up to Oddity is a wildly imaginative and engrossing dark fantasy set in an alternate American past. 
    
  "Brown’s imagination and voice-y character work are in fine form in this feisty sequel to Oddity (2021), and his latest villain is one for the history books. An ideal series for those not quite ready for the Miss Peregrine books."—Booklist

  The Tourniquet - Shivers

  In Shivers, the final turning of The Tourniquet series, the crisis deepens—not of war or politics, but of meaning. The Sleeper has spread: a quiet forgetting, a disconnection from soul, from story, from the sacred rhythm that once bound lives together. People move from one task to the next, generous in action but hollow within. The common thread is fraying. 
  Velora, once obsessed with purging memory and controlling narrative, begins to unravel. Her transformation is slow, marked by silence and subtle recognition. She shifts from deletion to devotion, learning to archive not for clarity, but for compassion. Father Labby, long a keeper of ritual, faces his own reckoning—will he cling to structure, or surrender to the spiral? 
  At the heart of it all is Maria, whose presence is not loud but luminous. Her stories, her gestures, her dance in the Spirala Pașilor Smeriți become a living transmission. She doesn’t speak truth. She becomes it. 
  This final volume is a pilgrimage through fragmentation and resonance, a choreography of souls seeking to rethread what was lost. It is not a conclusion, but a convergence where the spiral tightens, the Sleeper stirs, and the thread is finally seen not as metaphor, but as memory made sacred.

  “I got a letter!” said Fíasól happily, taking a closer look. “It says: 
  To the amazing and fantastic Fíasól at 8 Green Grove, Grasby. 
  Thank you for being you! Coolest, coolest, coolest of them all!” 
   “You’ve got to be joking!” said Pippa. “What halfwit sends something like that?” 
   Fíasól looked at her sister in indignation. 
   “Halfwit? A letter like this is definitely not written by a halfwit.” 
   Fíasól opened the envelope and drew out a long letter and a number of drawings. 
   “Well, blow me,” she said in surprise. “This must be from a famous artist.” 
  “Read us the letter,” Pippa said impatiently. 
   Fíasól read: 
  “Dear Fíasól, I’ve been meaning to write you many letters to tell you what fun you are and so clever. Here are some pictures of you that I drew. I hope you like them. I’m very good at drawing, just like you. Best of all I like playing with you and I’m so glad to be able to be with you every day. I am always going to wake up with you in the morning and go to sleep with you in the evening and take good care of you all my life. 
   I shall also look after you when others are horrible to you, and I’ll take your side. I’ll tell Pippa off if she winds you up and I’ll help you to tidy up the frightful dump when your mum says you have to. I’ll always be your best friend. 
   Your oldest and best and funniest and coolest of all the friends in the whole wide world, Fíasól who is the coolest.” 
   Pippa stared at her sister in indignation. 
   “Did you write a letter to yourself?” 
   “Yeah, and so what? Does it matter who writes you a letter? Getting a letter now and then is the main thing, isn’t it? And they have to be fun letters, that you can be bothered to read.”

  Twelve-year-old Ainsley Galloway and her ten-year-old brother, Tobin, have just moved to the small picturesque mountain town of Lowry. The town is famously the setting for the blockbuster Legend of Greyhallow trilogy, and there are traces of the films wherever they go. Ainsley’s parents even bought the film director’s former home, which they dream of turning into an inn that caters to fans eager to check out the local Greyhallow Movie Festival. But when Ainsley and Tobin are fooling around in the attic of their new home, Ainsley unleashes something—something she doesn’t quite understand—and suddenly, purple mist is flooding the town, she’s receiving cryptic messages from strangers in medieval garb, and, oddest of all, the enigmatic director of the Greyhallow movies, who’s been missing for years, has a message for them. Ainsley and Tobin have opened a passage between the very real magical world of the movies and their own. In a swirl of shifting loyalties, capricious creatures, and movie trivia, they have to figure out what to do—and who to trust—in order to save them all.
