Juvenile: After three ghosts, it looks like things might be going back to normal for Anderson and his friends Greg and Julie. It’s been a while since any

ghosts have shown up, and the most annoying thing lately is the loud barking at the Dog and Suds petgrooming shop next door to the Kitchen Sink. The dogs have been barking nonstop for days, and it’s making band practice impossible. But maybe the dogs know something the friends don’t…Because suddenly a ghost does appear! From what Anderson can tell, this ghost is a teenage Union soldier from the Civil War, and he looks terrifying. But this ghost is different from the others: he’s demanding to know what happened to his brother, who was also enlisted in the Union army. It’s a mystery that’s over 150 years old, and there are very few clues. What will happen to Anderson, Greg, and Julie if they can’t solve it in time? Ghosts of War:

Fallen in Fredericksburg by Steve Watkins.

Young Adult: Soldier. Summoner. Saint. Alina Starkov’s power has grown, but not without a price. She is the Sun Summoner – hunted across the True Sea, haunted by the lives she took on the Shadow Fold. But she and Mal can’t outrun their enemies for long. The Darkling is more determined than ever to claim Alina’s magic and use it to take the Ravkan throne. With nowhere else to turn, Alina enlists the help of an infamous privateer and sets out to lead the Grisha army. But as the truth of Alina’s destiny unfolds, she slips deeper into the Darkling’s deadly game of forbidden magic, and further away from her humanity. To save her country, Alina will have to choose between her power and the love she thought would always be her shelter. No victory can come without sacrifice – and only she can face the oncoming storm. Siege and Storm (Shadow and Bone Trilogy #2) by Leigh Bardugo.
