Bone Gap - Laura Ruby
Balzer + Bray
Release date:
March 3, 2015

In Bone Gap, it's not surprising when people go missing; it's a regular occurence, it's not the first time people have slipped away, disappeared. 
When Roza goes missing, no one is surprised, but Finn O'Sullivan knows...
Finn's mother left him and his brother, Sean, a few years before, and he knows that Roza hasn't just left the way his mother had - she's been kidnapped. 
Finn can't remember the man's face from the cornfield where Roza was taken, and all the searches for her turn up inconclusive. Sean has more reason to want to find Roza than anyone else has, but even he doesn't believe Finn anymore. No one does.

The Mirror World of Melody Black - Gavin Extence
Hodder & Stoughton
Release date:
March 12, 2015


Unfortunately I dont know an awful lot about this book but I'm still very excited to get my hands on it seeing as Gavin Extence fast became one of my favourite authors with his debut novel The Universe Versus Alex Woods.
From what I can gather, The Mirror World of Melody Black is the protagonist, Abby's, account of her life which is spiralling out of control due to mental illness.
