All These Lives
by Sandra Wylie
​
Dani’s twin sister Jena has cancer. Dani has always known that she was the luckier twin: after all, as her mother says, she has nine lives. She’s survived a variety of near-death situations, which have led her to believe that she might actually have more than one life. Then Dani hears something interesting: the Nine Life theory suggests that when a person loses one life, it is transferred to another person who needs it. Dani decides to see if losing one (or more) of her nine lives will help her sister survive.

Out of Oz
by Gregory Maguire

Once peaceful and prosperous, the spectacular Land of Oz is knotted with social unrest: The Emerald City is mounting an invasion of Munchkinland, Glinda is under house arrest, and the Cowardly Lion is on the run from the law. And look who's knocking at the door. It's none other than Dorothy. Yes. That Dorothy.
Yet amidst all this chaos, Elphaba's granddaughter, the tiny green baby born at the close of Son of a Witch, has come of age. Now it is up to Rain to take up her broom—and her legacy—in an Oz wracked by war.
The stirring, long-awaited conclusion to the bestselling series begun with Wicked, Out of Oz is a magical journey rife with revelations and reversals, reprisals and surprises—the hallmarks of the unique imagination of Gregory Maguire.
