Speak
Melinda Sordino ended an End-of-Summer Party by calling the cops. Now, her friends don't talk to her, and she feels like an outsider. She doesn't feel comfortable anywhere, even in her own thoughts. Something happened that night at the party, and thinking about it, is the worst thing she can do.
Catalyst
Kate Malone is smart and organized. But not even those traits could prepare her for the events ahead; her neighbors moving in, college decisions, and an event that will change everything else. This book is set in the same community as Speak, and according to Kirkus Reviews, it is "intellugently written, and mutlti-dimensial"

Fourteen-year-old Mattie Cook is just as curious and ambitious as any tennager, but when the fever claws at her front door, she must leave her family, and everything else she holds close.
Chains
