As twins Tempest and Tally approach their thirteenth birthday, traveling with their grandfather's carnival for the summer, something is pulling them apart--not just figuratively but literally. Tally tries to combat this destructive magnetic energy alone but discovers that she must rely on Tempest's strengths, too, if there's hope of preserving their relationship. The story's magical realism blends well with the sisters' complicated bond.

Guilt-ridden after the accidental death of her sister, Corrine learns to manipulate electrical currents to restore life in sea creatures and to cure people of cancer. The arrival of Rennick, and their subsequent romance, encourages Corrine to come to terms with Sophie's death. While much of the plot unfolds predictably, the story's premise is original and the exploration of grief and healing is moving.

All her life, seventeen-year-old Emery has slipped into "loops," debilitating seizures that propel her through time and to strange locations. Frustrated with being studied in a hospital, Emery flees to Esperanza, a village from her loops, where she meets benevolent Ash, who seems mysteriously tied to the phenomena. This sometimes slow but intriguing novel will have readers grappling for explanations.
