Having a good-looking, friendly, outgoing older brother sucks—especially when you’re the total opposite, someone who likes staying home and playing video games. Your parents like him better (even if they deny it!), and everyone calls you “Kyle’s little sister” while looking disappointed that you’re not more like him. I was hoping I’d get to go to a different middle school, but no such luck. At least I have my friends…until he finds a way to ruin that, too…! Argh! What do I have to do to get out of his shadow?!

Welcome to ancient Greece as only Newbery Medal-winning storyteller Laura Amy Schlitz can conjure it. Bound by destiny, Thracian slave Melisto and spoiled aristocrat Rhaskos—Amber and Clay—never meet in the flesh. By the time they do, one of them is a ghost. But the thin line between life and death is just one boundary their unlikely friendship crosses.

Blending verse, prose, and illustrated archaeological “artifacts,” Amber and Clay is a tale that vividly transcends time, an indelible reminder of the power of language to illuminate the over- and underworlds of human history.

This summer Cape Cod romance features poets divided by centuries. In 1862, Leta Townsend writes poetry under the name Benjamin Churchill, a boy who left for sea to hunt whales. Today, Michaela Dunn, an aspiring poet, discovers an old diary that tells Leta and Benjamin’s true story.

Discover the sumptuous new summer read that earned high praise from Kirkus Reviews: “There are two plucky heroines and four handsome hunks in this sweeping romance—and the author successfully juggles them all. The narrative effectively balances big, swoonworthy moments against smart character work.”
