  In this engrossing and inventive contemporary middle grade novel that's Where'd You Go, Bernadette with a #MeToo message, an eighth grader uses social media posts, passed notes, and other clues to find out why a formerly popular girl is now the pariah of her new school.  
  Anna Hunt may be the new girl at East Middle School, but she can already tell there’s something off about her eighth-grade class. Rachel Riley, who just last year was one of the most popular girls in school, has become a social outcast. But no one, including Rachel Riley herself, will tell Anna why. 
  As a die-hard podcast enthusiast, Anna knows there’s always more to a story than meets the eye. So she decides to put her fact-seeking skills to the test and create her own podcast around the question that won’t stop running through her head: What happened to Rachel Riley? 
  With the entire eighth grade working against her, Anna dives headfirst into the evidence. Clue after clue, the mystery widens, painting an even more complex story than Anna could have anticipated. But there’s one thing she’s certain of: If you’re going to ask a complicated question, you better be prepared for the fallout that may come with the answer.

  in the tranquil village of Eldenwood, life is simple and serene. Among its humble residents is Kael, a young blacksmith with an unassuming demeanor but a burgeoning inner strength. Kael's days are spent forging tools and weapons, yet his heart beats with the thrill of adventure. Drawn to the nearby woods, he begins to uncover his hidden talents—exceptional strength and agility that set him apart. In the solitude of the forest, Kael trains relentlessly, mastering his newfound abilities and growing into his potential. His self-discovery journey is abruptly interrupted when a marauding band of bandits descends upon Eldenwood, seeking to plunder its modest wealth and terrorize its people. Fear grips the villagers, and hope seems distant. But Kael is not one to stand by. Clad in a suit of armor he forged with his own hands, and wielding a sword that gleams with his determination, he steps forward to confront the threat. In a display of courage and skill, Kael single-handedly vanquishes the bandits, his movements a blur of precision and power. As the dust settles, the villagers emerge from their hiding places, their fear replaced by awe and gratitude. Kael's heroism transforms him from a simple blacksmith to the village's guardian, a beacon of hope in their darkest hour. His journey has only begun, and the legend of Kael, the hero of Eldenwood, begins to spread.

Then their Uncle James lets them in on a little secret:  Bigfoot  may have been spotted! And their Nana isn't  any  old grandma--she's the most famous Bigfoot hunter around!

  After a summer of feeling out of place at a fancy witch school, Hasani can’t wait to get back to the peace and normalcy of Riverbend Middle, where she knows all the rules and is destined to be captain of the Mathletes. There are a few little hiccups to work out—like how she’s going to tell her best  
  friend that she’s a witch—but even though the other two members of Hasani’s coven have joined her friend group and her school, there’s no reason to think that eighth grade won’t be smooth sailing … That is, until her former friend (and fellow witch) LaToya shows up. 
   
  LaToya is obviously up to something—beyond just turning all of Hasani’s friends against her. Strange things begin happening around the school, and Hasani is sure that LaToya is to blame. However, when Miss Lafleur comes to investigate the magic, she isn’t convinced that LaToya could have caused all  
  this chaos on her own—so Hasani sets out to prove it, and heads to the magic market, 3Thirteen, to find the tools she needs to do so. 
   
  But with all her focus on proving she’s right and learning more about her magic, is Hasani losing sight of the people and things that are most important to her?
