  🔱 Looking for a school with monsters, whirlpools, and zero promises you’ll make it out alive? Congratulations—you found it. 
  When the gods died (spoiler alert: humans totally killed them), their powers scattered like stardust, creating a world where everyone’s born with a gift: a ripple of Poseidon, a blaze of Apollo, a glimmer of Aphrodite… 
  Thirteen-year-old Hailey Woods? She got Zeus. Storm-summoning powers sound cool… unless you’re the only Zeus in a hundred years and there’s a prophecy floating about saying you’ll have to save the world—um, no pressure. 
  Hailey isn’t interested in saving anything. She’d rather survive high school without accidentally unleashing a tornado in class. 
  So when she’s offered a spot at Poseidon’s Academy—a school under the sea where her powers are useless—she dives in (literally) for a shot at a normal life. 
  No lightning. No pressure. No monsters. 
  Kidding! There are so many monsters… 
  Oh, and sea-nymphs—like mermaids, but meaner, less sparkly, and way more into revenge than decorating seashell crowns. They’re plotting to bring back the gods, and if Hailey and her friends don’t stop them, it’s goodbye enchanted sea palace, hello full-blown apocalypse. 
  Saving the world? Yeah… turns out that might not be optional. 
  __________________________________________________ 
  ⚡️Poseidon’s Academy is a middle grade fantasy packed with magic, teen demigods, and more mayhem than any school should allow. Perfect for fans of Percy Jackson, Nevermoor, and Amari and the Night Brothers 
  🌀 The whirlpool’s spinning—jump in if you dare. Worst case? You’re never seen again. Best case? You fight a kraken. Good luck!

  Smith was poor most of his life and often did manual labor jobs like fruit picking and woodcutting to provide for himself and his parents. To say he was a prolific writer of horror and science fiction would be a huge understatement. Between 1929 and 1934 he wrote more than a hundred short stories. He began corresponding with Robert E. Howard and H. P. Lovecraft and the three of them became friends although they never met. 
  Clark Ashton Smith was praised by his peers, H. P. Lovecraft said, “in sheer daemonic strangeness and fertility of conception, Clark Ashton Smith is perhaps unexcelled” and Ray Bradbury said that Smith, “filled my mind with incredible worlds, impossibly beautiful cities, and still more fantastic creatures”. You are about to discover what Lovecraft and Bradbury were talking about.

  "A ­triumphant coming-of-age story about gender identity, strength, and friendship, 
  as well as the different ways that people ­discover who they are." 
  —School Library Journal, starred review 
   
  A moving middle-grade novel in verse, about a young trans boy dealing with the loss of his friend by writing to his favorite cryptid, Mothman 
   
  Halfway through sixth grade, Noah’s best friend and the only other trans boy in his school, Lewis, passed away in a car accident. Lewis was adventurous and curious, always bringing a new paranormal story to share with Noah. Together they daydreamed about cryptids and shared discovering their genders and names. After his death, lonely and yearning for someone who could understand him like Lewis once did, Noah starts writing letters to Mothman, wondering if he would understand how Noah feels and also looking for evidence of Mothman’s existence in the vast woods surrounding his small Poconos town. Noah becomes determined to make his science fair project about Mothman, despite his teachers and parents urging him to make a project about something “real.” 
   
  Meanwhile, as Noah tries to find Mothman, Noah also starts to make friends with a group of girls in his grade, Hanna, Molly, and Alice, with whom he’d been friendly, but never close to. Now, they welcome him, and he starts to open up to each of them, especially Hanna, who Noah has a crush on. But as strange things start to happen and Noah becomes sure of Mothman’s existence, his parents and teachers don’t believe him. Noah decides it’s up to him to risk everything, trek into the woods, and find Mothman himself.
