Wilderlore Book 2 The Weeping Deep Tide by Amanda Foody. Softcover, advance reader’s copy. New, unread condition. Something is wrong at the Sea. The weeping tide, a carnivorous algae bloom, is eating up all the fish. Beasts are terrorizing the nearby Elsewheres. And Lochmordra, the Legendary Beast, is rising at random and swallowing ships whole. Barclay’s teacher, the famous Guardian Keeper Runa Rasgar, has been summoned to investigate, and as her apprentice, Barclay gets to join too. But Runa’s nemesis has also been called to the Sea, and he’s brought apprentices of his own. When the not-so friendly competition between them grows fierce, it’s Barclay—the only one from the Elsewheres—who can’t seem to keep up. The key to stopping Lochmordra lies in his mythical home, but as the flood of the weeping tide encroaches, time is running out to find it. If the rival groups can’t cast aside old grudges and learn to work together, soon the Sea will be destroyed completely. And all the while Barclay must ask himself: is there truly a place for him in the Wilderlands? February 2022 352 Pages Simon & Schuster Ages 8-12 ISBN 9781534477599

Sort of Super by author and illustrator Eric Gapstur. Softcover, advance reader’s copy. New, unread condition. Getting superpowers was the easy part. When a series of accidents gives eleven-year-old Wyatt Flynn superpowers, he wants nothing more than to be a superhero. But he’s not very good at using his powers, and what’s worse, his dad says he’s too young to be a superhero at all. So when his brilliant but mischievous little sister, Adeline, lets him in on the secret that what their father doesn’t know won’t hurt him, they form a crime-fighting duo of their own, solving all kinds of problems that come their way ... sort of. The more they learn to be heroes, the clearer it becomes that there’s more to Wyatt’s powers and Adeline’s off-the-charts intelligence than meets the eye. And Adeline can’t shake the feeling it’s all connected to the disappearance of their mother years before ... which is one mystery that will take being more than being sort of super to solve.
