Radcliffe Prep. The third most haunted school in the country, where a student disappearance isn’t uncommon and no one dares stay in the library after dark. And Este Logano enrolls with the hopes of finding her dead father. Not literally, of course. Going to her dad’s school just seems like her best hope at figuring out who he was. But then Este meets Mateo, who is maybe—probably—definitely—a real ghost. And an annoying one at that. When Mateo frames Este for the theft of a rare book from the library’s secret spire and then vanishes, Este will have to track him down or risk being expelled.

Twenty-four-year-old Saeris Fane is good at keeping secrets. No one knows about the strange powers she possesses or the fact that she has been picking pockets and stealing from the Undying Queen's reservoirs for as long as she can remember. But a secret is like a knot. Sooner or later, it is bound to come undone. When Saeris comes face-to-face with Death himself, she inadvertently reopens a gateway between realms and is transported to a land of ice and snow. The Fae have always been the stuff of myth, of legend, of nightmares… but it turns out they're real.

Sasha Pierce hasn’t had a single dream since she was a child...until she accepts a substitute teaching position in the charmingly witchy village of Old Middleton. Her first dream in twenty-five years ought to be enchanting, but her wonder quickly turns to shock when she realizes that it’s not a dream at all, but an entirely different sort of magic. Catapulted through an ancient portal into the fairytale kingdom of Between, Sasha’s astonishment is swiftly upgraded to panic when she accidentally performs a supposedly impossible feat and is declared the True Queen of Between.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 428
Mackenzie Carter has had some very bad dates lately. Model train experts, mansplainers, guys weirdly obsessed with her tail—she hasn’t had a successful date in months. Only a year out of residency, her grandmother’s obsession with Mackenzie finding the perfect mate to settle down with threatens to drive Mackenzie barking mad. Out of options, it feels like a small thing to tell her grandmother that she’s met someone. That is, until she blurts out the name of the first man she sees and the last man she would ever date: Noah Taylor, the big bad wolf of Denver General.

Publisher's summary
Margot is on the quest to uncover and reassemble an ancient—and cursed—vase, with the help of a boy who went missing in 1932, because it's the only way to put back together her broken heart in this standa-lone adventure rom-com, perfect for fans of What the River Knows and The Lost City.
The mythical Vase of Venus Aurelia hasn’t been seen since 1932, but Margot Rhodes is determined to change that.
Drawn by the vase’s supposed magical properties, Margot embarks on her school’s archaeological trip to Pompeii. Sure, it’s her first time holding a shovel, but she’s got something no one else does: lost teenage explorer Van Keane’s journal.
Poring over the poetic entries that serve as a map to the vase’s missing shards, Margot finds herself falling in love with the boy who wrote it a century ago. She’s shocked when her search leads her to a statue that looks exactly like Van, and then the statue comes to life.
Catapulted into the present, Van is nothing like the wordsmith Margot imagined. He’s all sharp edges, intent on retrieving the relic for all the wrong reasons. But it takes two to survive Venus’s death-defying challenges, and, together, Margot and Van must excavate the treasure—and their buried pasts—before their story ends in ruins.
With a blend of humor, magic, and love, Rachel Moore crafts another stand-alone adventure rom-com full of double- and triple-crosses, hilarious shenanigans, and frustration-fueled banter, where the best treasure is true love.

For the Lovely, there are two defining days in life, three if they’re fortunate. The first is at birth, when the one with whom they shared a womb forever joins the dead. The second is in their sixth year, when they touch their first stone and connect with the Realm. Olean knows this all too well, having accessed the Realm for years, reading people, seeing and feeling their thoughts and actions as if they were her own. Now that she’s of age and possesses a higher stone ability, her third defining day has come—a chance to join the prestigious Queen’s Garden.

Merrick Darling’s life as daughter of the Manor Lord of Sussex is better than most. Unlike the commoners, she is immune to the toxic fog that encroached on England generations earlier. She will never become a Phantom—one of the monstrous creatures that stalk her province’s borders—and as long as the fires burn to hold them back, her safety is ensured. She wants for nothing, yet she will never inherit her family’s Manor. She must marry smartly or live at the kindness of her elder sister, Essie. Everything is turned on its head, though, when Merrick’s father dies suddenly.

My class is stuck on an eerily remote island for our senior trip, I’m pretty sure Mr. D (“call me Max”) is hiding something from us, my ex–best friend turned nemesis keeps stealing my candy, and tonight’s plan for my boyfriend and me to finally lose our virginity to each other is going hellishly. I mean, ceviche is delicious, don’t get me wrong. But a dish made from a supposedly immortal octopus should really come with a warning label.

Felt like an early 2000’s rom-com 🏺
“Venus may have cursed my heart to stone only so that you can chisel it out and make it beat again.”
***
I’m not usually into Teen/YA books, but I loved this!!! It made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. It also made me laugh quite a bit. A very easy and light read/listen!
📖 Story: 4/5
I enjoyed Rachel Moore’s writing. It was lighthearted (and more in line with how I perceive a teen should/would act and think), but impactful and serious when it needed to be. The story was easy to follow, well paced, the over arching theme was clear and the adventure was fun!
🗣️ Performance 5/5:
The narrator’s performance particularly deserves praise — each character felt like their own. I was engaged the whole time. She made me really feel for Margot, the FMC.
THE PLUSES:
✔️ grumpy x sunshine
✔️ slow burn
✔️ forced proximity
✔️ banter
✔️ felt like an early 2000s rom-com*
✔️ adventures in Italy
✔️ archeology / treasure hunt
✔️ mythology / magical realism
✔️ deadly trials
✔️ pop culture references*
✔️ relatable FMC (soft and emotional girly…teenage me would have related a lot to her.)
✔️ character growth
✔️ third person POV
* These may be a minus for some, but for me it was a plus! I found the references added to the lightheartedness and charm of the story.
THE MINUSES:
➖nobody questions an approx. 100yr old 18yr old boy with no identification joining a high school archeology expedition
➖no repercussions for breaking and entering (emphasis on breaking) into history museums
➖HEA felt a little too unrealistic given the circumstances
QUEUE UP:
🎵 “Turn to Stone” by Ingrid Michaelson
🍿 The Lizzie McGuire Movie
🍿 Atlantis: The Lost Empire
🍿 Indiana Jones

A unique love story!
It took me about half way thru to really get into the story. The beginning was a bit slow paced but once I was half way in, I loved the characters and the story. A nice cozy read!
I can’t wait to see what’s next from this author!
