All the Broken Pieces
Cindi Madsen
Release date: December 11th 201
by Entangled Publishing

 

What if your life wasn’t your own?

Liv comes out of a coma with no memory of her past and two distinct, warring voices inside her head. Nothing, not even her reflection, seems familiar. As she stumbles through her junior year, the voices get louder, insisting she please the popular group while simultaneously despising them. But when Liv starts hanging around with Spencer, whose own mysterious past also has him on the fringe, life feels complete for the first time in, well, as long as she can remember.

Liv knows the details of the car accident that put her in the coma, but as the voices invade her dreams, and her dreams start feeling like memories, she and Spencer seek out answers. Yet the deeper they dig, the less things make sense. Can Liv rebuild the pieces of her broken past, when it means questioning not just who she is, but what she is?

The S-Word

Lizzie wasn’t the first student at Verity High School to kill herself this year. But the difference is, she didn’t go quietly.

First it was SLUT scribbled all over the school’s lockers. But one week after Lizzie Hart takes her own life, SUICIDE SLUT replaces it—in Lizzie’s own looping scrawl. Photocopies of her diary show up in the hands of her classmates. And her best friend, Angie, is enraged.

Angie stopped talking to Lizzie on prom night, when she caught Lizzie in bed with her boyfriend. Too heartbroken to ask for an explanation or to intervene when Lizzie got branded Queen of the Sluts and was cruelly bullied by her classmates, Angie left her best friend to the mercy of the school, with tragic results.

But with this new slur, Angie’s guilt transforms into anger that someone is still targeting Lizzie even after her death. Using clues from Lizzie’s diary and aided by the magnetic, mysterious Jesse, Angie begins relentlessly investigating who, exactly, made Lizzie feel life was no longer worth living. And while she might claim she simply wants to punish Lizzie’s tormentors, her anguish over abandoning and then losing her best friend drives Angie deeper into the dark, twisted side of Verity High—and she might not be able to pull herself back out.

Remy O’Malley has the power to heal people with her touch, but here ability comes at a steep cost, Every illness or injury she heals becomes her own.

Don’t know about your, but there’s lots of eye popping om my end! First of all, All the Broken Pieces! LOVE love it! It vaguely reminds me of the cover for Shift by Em Bailey, too. The S-Word may look plain, but I read that the cover was going to be indented where all the markings are so that could be really neat! Breaking Point! OH EM GEE I’m excited for that sequel! I loved Article 5 and this cover just rocks my face! And for Touched, I like the simplicity. The synopsis doesn’t give much away but it does reminds me of Touch of Power. I’m definitely going to check ALL of these out!
What do YOU think, lovelies?
