Hi everyone, I'm looking for a MG fantasy novel, protagonist 13 , where magic occurs when portions of objects are mixed together and the villain is from a secret society, kidnapping a kid. The novel must have been published three years ago. Thanks in advance for this.

Hi everyone, please could you please recommend a middle grade novel that discusses anxiety in protagonist and schizophrenia in the parent, and was published in the last three years. Bonus points if it is a fantasy book. Thank you in advance.

I also want to build my list of exciting, meaningful, fun, and funny MG fiction! Again, I especially hope to see SFF and horror submissions with original premises and clear conflicts, but I'm also open to contemporary stories and mysteries. In everything, I hope to see strong messages! #MSWL
