""An addictive, all-consuming tale that's both gorgeous and monstrous." ―CG Drews, New York Times Bestselling author of Don't Let The Forest In
'Beautiful Brutal Bodies is a phantasmagoric funhouse mirror of a book . . . this story kept me turning the pages until the bloody end.' ―Julie C. Dao, author of Forest of a Thousand Lanterns
Full of skin-crawling folk horror and sapphic romance, this feral fairytale and standalone follow-up to GORGEOUS GRUESOME FACES follows a reclusive songstress and her bodyguard who must unravel the occult mysteries of their past to escape from a cursed island.
Tian is a singer-songwriter with a massive online following, known for her hypnotic vocals and ethereal looks. But behind the glamorous façade is a disturbing reality: raised in an isolated mansion, Tian is a prisoner in her own life.
Liya is Tian's childhood friend and her only close companion, tasked with protecting Tian at all costs. But hidden beneath Liya's beautiful human exterior is a beastly secret: her teeth are far too sharp, and her appetite much too ferocious.
When several fans mysteriously suffer fatal injuries while watching her livestream, Tian, along with Liya, are sent to a spiritual healing retreat on a remote island in the South China Seas. They are joined by Tian's musical collaborator Shenyu, a troubled idol whose recent brush with the law and string of bad boyfriends has him seeking his own new start. But the trio soon discovers that the island is no peaceful getaway. There is constant surveillance, bizzare rituals, and something terrifying lurking in the forest. Something not quite human.
In order to escape with her loved ones, Tian must uncover her connection to the island's blood-drenched legend -- and the truth behind Liya's monstrous identity -- before the island claims them all as its final sacrifice."
"A teen girl with the power of resurrection must venture into the afterlife, but to survive the death realm, she'll need the help of her two mortal enemies--both of whom she is inexplicably drawn to--in this romantic, gothic fantasy inspired by Wuthering Heights.
When Jia Yi finds herself alive again after being killed by an enemy's sword, she realizes she possesses a rare power: the ability to move between life and death. With her new gift comes the discovery of a mysterious spirit realm teeming with ghosts like herself-and Lin, the boy she once loved before his betrayal tore them apart.
At first Jia wants nothing to do with any ghosts, metaphorical or otherwise. But when her beloved grandmother dies under suspicious circumstances, Jia is forced to follow in an attempt to save her.
In the death realm, though, even ghosts have ghosts. The afterlife is more complex than Jia ever could have imagined-and no one knows what lies at its end. To survive, Jia must rely on both Lin and her longtime enemy, the cold and enigmatic Prince Essien. The problem? She can't trust either of them.
Jia is prepared to risk her soul if it means rescuing her grandmother-but what if in the process, she loses her heart, too?"
"Full of grotesque monsters and revenge, Evie Mei's journey to confront her mother's killer comes to an end in this sequel to The Spindle of Fate by Aimee Lim.
Evie Mei Huang has literally been to hell and back alongside her friend Kevin. And while the trip to Dìyù, the Chinese underworld, was a grueling journey filled with endless horrors, nothing compares to the fact that she was unable to bring her mother back. She now has the great responsibility to assume the role her mother once held: head of the Weavers Guild. Spinning people’s fates sure seemed easier said than done, and now Evie finds herself buried in Guild duties while trying to maintain a strained relationship with her best friend.
What could make a twelve-year-old’s life even more complicated? Escaped monsters from the underworld that broke through when she returned to Earth. A mysterious yellow fog that seems to be turning their city upside down and hinting at an approaching massive force they aren’t prepared to fight. Not to mention the looming threat of the man who sent her mom to the underworld in the first place (who’s also her aunt’s fiancé). Can’t a girl catch a break?
Aimee Lim’s fast-paced conclusion to Evie Mei’s story is filled with her signature sardonic voice, explorations of grief and relationships, and thrilling action that will leave readers rooting for the young girl whose courage outshines everyone else’s."

Lynda isn't exactly a romantic, but in pursuit of her dreams, she discovers things she never knew about herself while also finding love with every heart she draws."
