New Books in YA

So many good books in the Teen Bistro are part of a series.  Series often provide readers with greater character development, more detailed backgrounds and the opportunity of simply sitting with the story longer.  The titles below are new books that we've added to the collection; each add to their series:

Caroline, fragile and wheelchair-bound, may seem like more of a liability than an asset, but Aliera knows there's more to her quiet cousin than meets the eye.
