The Secret Horses of Briar Hill byMegan Shepherd
Date de sortie : 11 octobre 2016
Éditeur : Delacorte Books for Young Reader
------------------------------------------------------
There are winged horses
that live in the mirrors of Briar Hill hospital. In the mirrors that
line its grand hallways, which once belonged to a princess. In those
that reflect the elegant rooms, now filled with sick children. It is her
secret.
One morning, when Emmaline climbs over the wall of the hospital’s abandoned gardens, she discovers something incredible: a white horse with broken wings has left the mirror-world and entered her own.
Tucked into the garden’s once-gleaming sundial, Emmaline finds a letter from the Horse Lord. He is hiding the wounded white horse, named Foxfire, from a dark and sinister force—a Black Horse who hunts by colorless moonlight. If Emmaline is to keep the Black Horse from finding her new friend, she must collect colorful objects with which to blind him. But where can Emmaline find color when her world is filled with gray?

A Million Worlds with You by
Claudia Gray
Date de sortie : 1er novembre 2016
Éditeur : HarperTeen
------------------------------------------------------
A million universes. A million dangers. One destiny.
The fate of the multiverse rests in Marguerite Caine’s hands. Marguerite has been at the center of a cross-dimensional feud since she first traveled to another universe using her parents’ invention, the Firebird. Only now has she learned the true plans of the evil Triad Corporation—and that those plans could spell doom for dozens or hundreds of universes, each facing total annihilation.
Paul Markov has always been at Marguerite’s side, but Triad’s last attack has left him a changed man—angry and shadowed by tragedy. He struggles to overcome the damage done to him, but despite Marguerite’s efforts to help, Paul may never be the same again.
So it’s up to Marguerite alone to stop the destruction of the multiverse. Billions of lives are at stake. The risks have never been higher. And Triad has unleashed its ultimate weapon: another dimension’s Marguerite—wicked, psychologically twisted, and always one step ahead.

Scythe and Ever the Hunted ont l'air déments! Je note! :D
RépondreSupprimerj'adore le synopsis de Secret horses, ça promet de faire rêver quelques enfants malades. Et le concept de Scythe est tellement intéressant!
RépondreSupprimerEn fait, épingler serait plutôt "pin" ; "pine for" veut dire languir, attendre un amant, ce qui donne une jolie tournure à ce concept de billet. x
Merci pour les découvertes ! Il y en a pas mal qui me tentent !
