Winner of the 2010 A. M. Klein Poetry Prize! Shortlisted for the 2010 Griffin Poetry Prize! Descartes asked, How can I know that I am not now dreaming? The Certainty Dream poses similar questions through poetry, but without the trappings of traditional philosophy. Kate Hall's bracingly immediate, insistently idiosyncratic debut collection lays bare the tricks and tools of her trade: a mynah bird perches in poems but 'stands for nightingale'; the poet's antelope turns transparent; she dresses up her orange trees with bark and leaves. As the dream world and the waking world blur, the body and the dimensions it inhabits become a series of overlapping circles, all acting as containers for both knowledge and uncertainty. At times disarmingly plainspoken, at others, singing with lyric possibility, these poems make huge associative leaps. Taken together, they present the argument that to truly 'know' something, one must first recognize its traces in something else.

Sarah's life has never felt more out of control. After her parents die in a car accident, she's been sent to live with estranged relatives she barely knows and thrust into a private school for the magically talented and super rich - of which she is neither. When Sarah finds an orphaned dragon's egg in the forest, she thinks things couldn't possibly get more complicated...that is, until she starts falling for Alex, the handsome trans pyromancer from her potions class. Juggling magic lessons, a baby dragon and a blossoming romance keeps Sarah too busy to worry about her past. But when a series of gruesome magical murders starts happening on campus, Sarah suddenly finds herself keeping more secrets than she bargained for. When she starts to see Helen, the aunt who disappeared the night of her parents' death, she begins to suspect that she's the witch responsible for the deaths plaguing the school.Sarah must find the courage to face her past and uncover the truth about Helen and her parents, even if this means ruining her relationship with everyone she has come to love since moving to the city. Because if Sarah can't catch the murderer, she and her friends just might become the next victims.

Billie's small-town life is fairly normal. Theatre club, horrible guys, a crush on the new girl, and a deathly fear of dragons ever since one destroyed the town of Bore's Grove five years ago. After slaying a dragon at the annual Dragon Day Parade, though, she becomes a town hero. The problem is, she only did it to save Theo, the girl she likes. Now, though, the town is plotting to destroy the entire flock of dragons. Billie and Theo must team up and decide if they're going to save the dragons. If they do, though, it will mean betraying the town she grew up in.

THIS BOOK IS PART OF A SERIES. DESCRIPTION CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR BOOKS 1 AND 2. Avery has been dead for a long time. A year, in fact. Now, though, she's woken up to discover that she's back at the end, waking up in the hospital mere hours after her fatal car accident. Desiree is still being held captive by the angels, though, and it's up to Avery to save her. Partnering with demons is dangerous, though, especially when that demon is Lilith, the mother of all demons. It's going to take a miracle to pull this off, and Avery might just have one up her sleeve.

Avery doesn't belong at Theaa, an academy where angels learn to fight demons in the eternal war between Heaven and Hell. The main problem is. Avery is in love with a demon. On Earth, they'd been girlfriends, and now, they're forbidden lovers. Now that Avery knows that Desire is stuck as a demon in Hell because of her, she has to come up with a plan to save her. Even if it costs her salvation.

Avery has never been a good girl. In constant trouble with her family, at school, and the law, she knows exactly where she'll end up. When she dies in a car accident, though, she wakes to find herself as the newest student at Theaa Academy, a school for Angels to hone their skills so that they can fight demons in the war between good and evil. Will Avery learn to take her place as an angel, or will she fall into the ranks of demons?
