The Clique Summer Collection is a series of five 144-page novellas about the summer plans of the main characters in the Clique. Each book will be told from the point of view of a different girl in the Pretty Committee: Massie, Alicia, Dylan, Kristen, and Claire.
Kristen sets sail on the Love Boat. . . With the rest of the Pretty Committee scattered across the globe, Kristen is stuck in summer school at OCD, making good on her scholarship commitments. No sleepover horse camp, no Hawaiian spa, no Spanish vacation, not even a trip to Orlando. But when Kristen scores a job looking after hang-ten hottie Dune Baxter's eight-year-old sister, Ripple, Westchester suddenly doesn't seem so bad. It looks like Kristin is about to ride the wave of first love. . . .<
EDITORIAL REVIEW:
Jodie Patterson's posh bakery is all about satisfying cravings. Her signature aphrodisiac cookies have been flying off the shelves…and giving Jodie some delicious ideas of her own.
Behind his owlish glasses, Jodie's business partner, Dr. Dan Ellison, is the male equivalent of the Naughty Professor. Jodie is more than ready to indulge her fantasies with this wolf-in-geek's-clothing as long as they set some ground rules: sex is sex, business is business and nothing will change. Yeah, right! After that first addictive kiss, it's time to see if they can *really *satisfy each other's appetites….<
MELODY CARVER * Nariz nueva. * Le encanta Jackson, su nuevo vecino «súper guapo». * Camiseta años setenta, jeans negros y Converse rosas. Melody y su familia abandonan Beverly Hills en busca del aire puro de Salem (Oregón). Tras librarse de su nariz (como la joroba de un camello) y sus constantes ataques de asma, Melody se convierte por fin en «la chica guapa» del instituto Merston High. Lo malo es que se siente una impostora... hasta que conoce a Jackson. ¿También él esconde algo? ¿Podría estar relacionado con los insólitos rumores acerca de... monstruos que andan sueltos? FRANKIE STEIN * Nuevo... bueno, todo en ella es nuevo. * Sueña con Brett, que tiene una novia súper celosa. * Traje pantalón de lana que pica (preferiría minifalda escocesa y top de cachemir) Frankie ha vivido en Salem desde que nació, aunque sólo cuanta con quince días de vida. Sedispone a conquistar el instituto, a los chicos y los centros comerciales, en ese mismo orden. Lamentablemente, la gente se asusta de la piel de Frankie, de color verde menta, en lugar de aplaudir su «electrizante» sentido de la moda. Si quiere ser cool entre los normis de Merston High, va a tener que ocultar un secreto monstruoso. En cambio, lo arriesga todo por un beso robado, equivocación que puede costarle más de lo que cree. Melody y Frankie se proponen demostrar que lo diferente puede encajar. Pero, ¿están preparados los normis de Merston High para un cambio de imagen? ¿Puede un monstruo sobrevivir en un mundo de normis?<

In the future, dreams keep the universe running. Dreamers, known as "Silent," are able to look into other people's dreams, communicate with other Silent across the galaxy, and speak to aliens. Silent construct dreams for themselves more vivid than reality.
But some dreams have become nightmares...
Kendi Weaver doesn't know he's Silent. Hijacked into slavery, he has resigned himself to a life of servitude. Then the discovery of his innate gift for dream communication changes everything. Suddenly Kendi is a very valuable commodity. He is rescued by the Children of Irfan--a society dedicated to freeing enslaved Silent--and taken to their planet, Bellerophon.
But Bellerophon is hardly a safe refuge. A brutal serial killer is murdering Silent in their telepathic dreams, and Kendi is soon embroiled in a world of madness and murder. To catch the killer, he must enter the victims' dreams...

Anita Blake, cazador de vampiros, ha destruido a un montón de monstruos, pero su antiguo mentor, Edward, puede ser peor que cualquiera de ellos. Edward tiene problemas; una fuerza malévola está mutilando a los ciudadanos de Albuquerque. Y necesitará toda la potencia de fuego y la astucia de Anita.<
The lush and beautiful forest planet of Bellerophon is home to a cacophony of noises, but its resident psychics are known as the Silent. Previously they could travel to the Dream, a telepathic plane of existence where they could twist the laws of reality. But that time is over...
One madman's lust for power tore the Dream asunder. Now only a handful of the Silent can enter it. Kendi Weaver is one of them.
As an election for the governorship of Bellerophon begins, Kendi is caught in the crossfire. Attempts on his life—and a rash of Silent kidnappings—point to a political enemy...or a personal one. Either way, the future of the Dream is at stake. And Kendi fears it may become a nightmare.

Massie Block: The Briarwood boys have invaded OCD and are taking over everything. Worse, the soccer boys have become so popular that the Pretty Committee's alpha status is in serious jeopardy. So Massie lays out a New Year-New Pretty Committee rule: Anyone caught crushing on a boy will be thrown out of the NPC-forever. But will she be able to follow her own decree when she sees that Derrington has ditched his shorts-obsession in favor of ah-dorable jeans? Alicia Rivera: Is the opposite of onboard with the boyfast. Her crush, the Ralph Lauren-luh-ving Josh Hotz, is more irresistible than creme brulee fro-yo. But is he worth losing her spot in the NPC? And taking on the wrath of Massie? Dylan Marvil: Is so ready for the boyfast. She's straightened her unruly red hair and permanently pressed boys out of her life. If only she could do the same with curly fries and caramel popcorn. Kristen Gregory: Has traded her sporty-chic Pumas for Billabong board shorts and a shark tooth necklace. She claims she's sworn off boy-crushes, so what's with her Blue Crush makeover? Claire Lyons: Spent all summer thinking about Cam's one blue eye and one green eye. But now he's moved on to a new girl faster than you can say cuh-yutest couple.
