An alien stole my planet / Puri, Pooja.
Dinosaur ate my sister.
Before you start reading, there are a few things you should know: 1. I, Esha Verma, am a genius inventor extraordinaire. 2. I like lists. 3. I did not mean to open up an inter-galactic portal. Some things just can't be helped. Esha Verma, her snotty apprentice Broccoli and his secretly cunning pet tortoise are on their third adventure -- this time it's an inter-galactic mission through outer-space to stop an alien from stealing their planet! When Esha invents the Inviz-Whiz, a device designed to make the user invisible, she does not expect it to open a portal to outer space -- and things go from bad to worse when Esha, Broccoli, Archibald and Broccoli's annoying cousin Bean are immediately abducted by Goospa, an alien with an evil plan! With the help of a surly alien called Nix, Esha and the gang must race across the galaxy, navigate a Lava Marsh, fight vicious Ice Bats -- and stop Bean getting into too much trouble! -- to stop Goospa's plan before it's too late!

The creepening of Dogwood House / Royce, Eden.

"At night, Roddie still dreams of sitting at his mother's feet while she braids his Afro down. But that's a memory from before. Before his mom died in a tragic accident. Before he was taken in by an aunt he barely knows. Before his aunt brought him to Dogwood House, the creepiest place Roddie has ever seen. It was his family's home for over a hundred years. Now the house -- abandoned and rotting, draped in Spanish moss that reminds him too much of hair -- is his home too. Aunt Angie has returned to South Carolina to take care of Roddie and reconnect with their family's hoodoo roots. Roddie, however, can't help but feel lost. His mom had never told him anything about hoodoo, Dogwood House, or their family. And as they set about fixing the house up, Roddie discovers that there is even more his mother never said. Like why she left home when she was seventeen, never to return. Or why she insisted Aunt Angie always wear her hair in locs. Or what she knew of the strange secrets hidden deep within Dogwood House -- secrets that have awoken again, and are reaching out to Roddie"--
