Always the Almost by Edward Underhill and The Island by Natasha Preston
Always the Almost
by
Edward Underhill
Sixteen-year-old trans boy Miles Jacobson has two New Year's resolutions:1) Win Back his ex-boyfriend (and star of the football team) Shane McIntyre, and 2) finally beat his slimy arch-nemesis at the Midwest's biggest classical piano competition. But that's not going to be easy. For one thing Shane broke up with Miles two weeks after Miles came out as Trans, and now Shane's stubbornly ignoring him, even when they literally bump into each other. Plus, Miles's new, slightly terrifying new piano teacher keeps telling him that he's playing like he “Doesn't know who he is” --whatever that means.
Then Miles meets the new boy in town, Eric Méndez, a proudly Queer Cartoonist from Seattle who asks he pronouns, cares about art as much as he does-- and makes his stomach flutter. Not what he needs to be focusing on right now. But after Eric and Miles pretend to date so they can score an invite o a couples0only Valentine's party, the ruse turns real with a kiss, Which is also definitely not in the plan. If only Miles could figure out why Eric likes him so much. After all, It's not like he's cool or confident or comfortable in his own skin. He's not even good enough to piano to get his fellow competitors to respect him, especially now, as Miles. Nothing's ever been easy for him as other people—other boys. He's only ever been almost enough.
Sowhy, when he's Eric, does it feel like the only person he's ever really not been enough for...is himself?

The Island
by
Natasha Preston
They say goodbye to their friends and family for the weekend. They weren't counting on forever.
Jagged Island: a private amusement park for the rich—or the very influential, Liam, James, Will, Ava, Harper and Paisley—social media influencers with millions of followers-- have been invited for an exclusive weekend before the ark opens. They'll make posts and videos for their channels and report every second of their VIP treatment.
When the teens arrive, they're stunned: the resort is even better than they'd imagined. Their hotel rooms are unreal, the park's themed rides are incredible, and the island is hauntingly beautiful. They're given a jam-packed itinerary for the weekend.
But soon they'll discover that something's missing from their schedule: getting off the island alive.
