Summary
Reese didn’t come to Hawkins looking for monsters. Or... anything, really. But in a town like this—and a senior year like this—sometimes the strangest things aren't under your bed. They glance at you in the hallway. Or peer at you from behind the Dungeon Master screen.
A quiet story about a cleric and a bard. Moonlight and Shadow. A Church Mouse and a Rebel Knight. A girl and the boy she didn’t expect to understand her, but always hoped would.
Slow burn. Soft moments. Sacred ones. For anyone who’s ever believed in both unicorns and redemption.

Summary
Twelve high school students, twelve burdens, and one messy but beautiful story where no one is really okay. There’s bullying, family tension, first crushes, and the kind of friendships that hurt just as much as they heal. Separated at first, their worlds slowly collide— stories intertwining with each other, and they learn that maybe… just maybe, the people who see you for who you really are can become some sort of a found family with unconditional, unending care.
Twelve different boys... twelve different stories... They all intertwine together, weaving their threads until it's one big story to tell the world- the hurt, the tears, the pain, the anger, the puppy love, the quiet comfort, the platonic love, the care- all of it.

Summary
Four years have passed since the Alvarez-Dearing family built their new life beyond Night City. Where Fallen Stars was a story of survival, healing, and the fight to hold on, Rising Stars is about the life they’ve built in the aftermath.
Set in 2081, this series shifts into the quiet but no less powerful rhythm of family: Valerie and Judy balancing their art and their love, Sera and Sandra finding their voices and their first taste of independence, Vicky and Velia shaping their own paths within the home they’ve all created.
At the heart of Rising Stars is the comfort and warmth of the everyday the lakehouse mornings, late nights at Starfall, laughter, mistakes, and small victories that echo louder than any battle ever could. It’s a slice-of-life chronicle of what comes after the fight is won: a family learning that love, in all its forms, is still the greatest rebellion.Series

Summary
Before the dreamers took their first steps across a healing world,
before the name of Will ever touched the wind—
there was another story.
A tale buried in the amber glow of a distant dawn.
The reign of King Hythlodeus was one of order and gold. His banners hung bright upon the marble towers of the allied Rhoag noble houses, and his word was law as eternal as the sun itself. Beneath that gilded sun, the noble Houses of Vastelune gleamed in their devotion to purity, for the Rhoag were said to be the children of light—untainted, divine, eternal.
And beneath that same light, a noblewoman labored to bring forth her first child.- Language:

Summary
I found this diary hidden behind the cushions of the Hogwarts Express. Locked tight with a spell that would not yield to Alohomora, it only opened when I spoke in Parseltongue. Inside are the writings of Blair Copper, Slytherin, student, and the girl who knew Tom Riddle in ways no one else did. From her first year at Hogwarts to the years beyond graduation, this is her story: lessons learned, friendships made, secrets kept, and a bond with the boy who would become one of the most feared wizards of all time.

Summary
Remus Lupin already has more on his plate than most boys his age: a sick mother, an out-of-touch father, a man named Fat Will who's seriously scary.
Enter: Hallowcrest
He hopes for something steady, but instead finds four years of the opposite: tarot cards predicting his doom, an amusement park trip that erupts into a mascot melee, a hostage situation on a posh friend’s yacht, and accidentally becoming arsonists (twice).
And that doesn't even touch the tension simmering between him and Sirius Black.
Over, and over, and over again.
