    Summary

    It was wishful thinking. It had to be the truth. Glinda may not know much but she knew performance, and the more she thought about it the better it fit. Elphaba’s death didn’t make sense. Glinda had seen it with her own eyes and had stupidly believed that was proof it had happened.

    Elphaba’s melting shadow had been wearing the hat. Glinda wasn’t sure of the scientification of melting, but surely either all or none of her clothes should have melted. Surely Elphaba herself shouldn’t have melted. Fiyero’s body was missing, and Elphaba’s hat was in her hands.

    Glinda stared at herself in the mirror. Her eyes were bloodshot, and she realized she must have been crying. She looked crazy. It didn’t matter.

    Elphaba was alive.

    Summary

    There is a world in which people's souls are made manifest, taking the form of a creature who walks the world beside them—these creatures are called dæmon.

    Imogen has lived half her life with a dæmon that shows the world her soul is a wild and frightening thing and ever since she started seeing the strange-true images in other’s heads, she’s been thinking they might be right. Laudna’s cursed or evil, if rumours are to be believed. Her dæmon is unsettled, and as unsettling as she is. Maybe he always will be. But maybe the way souls appear is not how they are, Imogen thinks, because she’s never met anyone better than that strange pair.

     

    A chance encounter at the start of the school year takes them across the country and years as they figure out who they are, to themselves and to one another.

    Summary

    Every girl remembers her first.

    Her first crush. Her first kiss. Her first love.

    Keyleth is a late bloomer in every sense of the word. For much of her teenagedom she was the awkwardly tall girl, flat as a board with none of the new curves, feelings, and smells of her pubescent classmates, and certainly no reprieve from the teasing about being mistaken for an overgrown thirteen year old when she was cresting sixteen, but finally, finally, the summer before her senior year of high school everything’s changing.

    She didn’t expect alongside her late onset puberty transformation to be the center of attention for the entire school when she gets involved with two troublesome twins.
    What may have been a small pamphlet to describe her firsts became a novel-length adventure through flirtation, deviance, hormones, and most of all, whatever the fuck it is going on between her and Vex’ahlia Vessar.
