Creepy & Maud by Dianne Touchell 

Creepy & Maud charts the relationship between two social misfits, played out in the space between their windows. Creepy is a boy who watches from the shadows, keenly observing and caustically commentating on human folly. Maud is less certain. A confused girl with a condition that embarrasses her parents and assures her isolation. 

Together Creepy and Maud discover something outside their own vulnerability - each others. But life is arbitrary; and loving someone doesn't mean you can save them.

Burning Blue by Paul Griffin

Everyone is a suspect - even Nicole herself - and whoever did it seems ready to strike again.

Zoe Letting Go by Nora Price

I know what you are asking yourself. And the answer, Ellie, is yes. Yes, you are the reason I am here. But you're not the only reason.

Twin Birch isn't just any hospital. It's a strange mansion populated by unnerving staff and glassy-eyed patients. It's a place for girls with serious problems; skinny, spindly girls who have a penchant for harming themselves. Zoe isn't like them. And she can't figure out why she was sent here.
