Rose Howard is obsessed with homonyms.  She’s thrilled that her own name is a homonym, and she purposely gave her dog, Rain, a name with two homonyms (reign, rein), which, according to Rose’s rules of homonyms, is very special.  Not everyone understands Rose’s obsessions, her rules, or the other things that make her different—not her teachers, not the other kids, and not her single father.  When a storm hits their rural town, rivers overflow, roads are flooded, and Rain goes missing.  Rose’s father shouldn’t have let Rain out. Now, Rose has to find her dog, even if it means leaving her routines and safe places to search. Rain Reign by Ann M. Martin.

NEW YOUNG ADULT

Sixteen-year-old Starr Carter moves between two worlds: the poor black neighborhood where she lives and the fancy suburban prep school she attends.  The uneasy balance between these worlds is shattered when Starr witnesses the fatal shooting of her childhood best friend, Khalil, at the hands of a police officer.  Khalil was unarmed.  Soon afterward, Khalil’s death is a national headline.  Some are calling him a thug, maybe even a drug dealer and a gangbanger.  Starr’s best friend at school suggests he may have had it coming.  When it becomes clear the police have little interest in investigating the incident, protesters take to the streets and Starr’s neighborhood becomes a war zone.  What everyone wants to know is: What really went down that night? And the only person alive who can answer that is Starr.  But what Starr does—or—does not—say could destroy her community.  It could also endanger her life.
