WHEN COHEN HOARD gets a tongue in the mail, it really ruins his day. The package isn’t even addressed to him, it’s addressed to Calla Human, whoever that is. Cohen doesn't have time for disembodied tongues. The transportation AI they are creating at work is going to change the world. And Cohen has to fix the bug in his demo code before it releases in a few days. But now he’s got to take care of this stupid tongue first. When he manages to deliver the tongue to Calla Human, she drags him into a bizarre new world where severed limbs are merely a commodity and a mysterious client is calling all the shots. But if they don’t figure out what The Client wants the body parts for, or they might be in more danger than anyone realizes. Then Cohen will never get his code fixed. Cuz he’ll be dead.

Book Description
THERE ARE TWO THINGS that fascinate the Immortals: birth and death. Since they can do neither, they entertain themselves by watching mortals do both. Mila knows this. She has always known this. It has been that way for 500 years. To stay alive, most of the remaining mortals now hide out in small, nomadic tribes, spread out across the globe. They are careful. They don’t take chances. And they avoid the Immortals at all cost. But when her sister is wounded and abducted by Immortals, Mila realizes the only way to save her is to enter the one place she knows she should never go: the Immortal City. And there is more going on there than any of them realized. Unfortunately, the Immortals are looking for HER too. And with infinite lives available to them, they have nothing to lose.

Book Description
THE UNIVERSE IS TRYING TO KILL HIM. Lahn just wants to ignore the world, build some code with his AI, and hide from the starless green sky. But when horrible visions of future-tech destruction invade his carefully curated calm, he will have to risk his life and fight his fears to find out if the visions are real, or a product of his own depersonalization. If the visions are real, everyone’s at risk, especially those he loves most. And no one but Lahn can save them. Probably time to put on some pants.

Book Description
A Pura Belpré Honor Book An immigrant teen fights for her family, her future, and the place she calls home. In the spring of 2018, Guatemalan American high school senior Milagros "Millie" Vargas knows her life is about to change. She has lived in Corpus Christi, Texas, ever since her parents sought asylum there when she was a baby. Now a citizen, Millie devotes herself to school and caring for her younger siblings while her mom works as a housekeeper for the wealthy Wheeler family. With college on the horizon, Millie is torn between attending her dream school and staying close to home, where she knows she's needed. She is disturbed by what's happening to asylum-seekers at the U.S.-Mexico border, but she doesn't see herself as an activist or a change-maker. She's just trying to take care of her own family. Then Mr. Wheeler, a U.S. Senate candidate, mentions Millie's achievements in a campaign speech about "deserving" immigrants. It doesn't take long for people to identify Millie's family and place them at the center of a statewide immigration debate. Faced with journalists, trolls, anonymous threats, and the Wheelers' good intentions—especially those of Mr. Wheeler's son, Charlie—Millie must confront the complexity of her past, the uncertainty of her future, and her place in the country that she believed was home.
