He's dying and he can't walk, but he can absorb a lifetime of knowledge within minutes. His friend, Ariock, is capable of smashing entire cities. But their enemies are even more formidable. Galactic leaders command trillions of telepaths who own everything in the known universe, including countless planets and alien slaves. They've launched an armada with nuclear warheads, and they're ready to enslave Earth and crush any potential rebellion fomented by Thomas and his allies. Even worse: Thomas's main enemy is the smartest person in the known universe. The Upward Governess is an obese teenager who commands armies and orchestrates galactic civilization ... and she will commit atrocities for a chance to defeat Thomas, and to reclaim the medicine they both need in order to survive to adulthood. The most brilliant, powerful, and ruthless warriors in the galaxy are about to collide. Copyright © 2018 Abby Goldsmith. All rights reserved.

Anyone who dares to question the elected rulers of the Megacosm--or worse, defy them--will suffer death by torture. Only Thomas escaped that fate. He severed himself from the Megacosm in order to rescue his former friends from slavery and death, and now he's hunted as a renegade super-genius. But if he's going to survive in alien wildernesses, evading ruthless galactic armies, he needs help from the gigantic prisoner whom he was forced to sentence to death. Thomas and Ariock have enough brilliance and power between them to bring freedom to the universe. They might destroy seemingly omnipotent galactic leaders ... but first, they need to figure out how to trust each other. ✴ Winner in the 2019 Majestic Awards Copyright © 2018 Abby Goldsmith.

This is the story of Danielle Martin, an eighteen year old girl with an affinity for spray cheese, gothic novels and staying in on Saturday nights. She has her ups and downs, her twists and turns and a past that may threaten to ruin her perfectly average suburban existence. This is also the story of Benny Winters, the popular guy, and his journey to find a true connection in a world full of strangers masquerading as friends. The little things make us who we are and sometimes it takes just one moment to break the camels back. How we handle these breaks is certainly something to talk about.

Alison Lawrence didn't know what having a tough life meant and had everything handed to her on a golden plate. Her life was immaculate with the perfect and caring boyfriend in it and a reign that mattered the world to her, both things she never wanted to lose. After such a long time in power, she wasn't expecting that one terrible mistake would destroy everything she thought she had under control. The queen bee ended up completely shattered. However, maybe destiny or fate gave her a second chance. She moved away for one entire year before coming back to the place she once called home. Alison is determined to fight for everything she once had, but in the end, will that be what she truly wants? #2 in populargirl - 09/03/18 #25 in queenbee - 09/04/18 #3 in popular - 06/05/19 #1 in popularity - 15/05/20 © 2018 Ally Muller
