Trying to embed a title of a book a read when I was a teen to add to a list I’m creating but can’t remember it 😢 what I remember

• a Young girl and her younger brother (maybe sister?) become orphaned or maybe escape their family
• She comes across a market - where she meets a boy possibly on a fruit stall. I also think she meets another one where he’s potentially on the flower stall? One of the boys has burns/scars across his face.
• she dates the boy without the scars but I think that doesn’t work out and then she realises the boy with the scar loves her and then she also falls in love with him.
• I’m sure there’s and aspect of pickpocketing along the lines, maybe the younger sibling likes to pinch things from said market?

Honestly that’s all I have to go on I’m sorry. Probably won’t get anywhere with just that but the title is bugging me!

Heyyyy

My sister has a book she can't remember that I'm looking to see if anyone knows...

It includes: A heist A girl lived in a landlord situation with her best friend Landlord hated her but loved her best friend She got hired for a heist by the princess of the kingdom to steal a secret The secret was putting the princess at risk (only heir to the throne) Something to do with deleting memories?? A girl was used to get into the palace from a theatre group

Read around 2024 ish, so possibly published around that time

Let me know if anyone knows anything!!

Edit; she says if you can find it, she will love you forever 😅❤️

Hi! So when I was in middle school I read a book that I am pretty sure is called “Shadow Hunters” or had that in the title but WAS NOT by Cassandra Claire or even in that universe.

Here is what I remember: It was middle grade. I’m pretty sure the author wrote for Doctor Who. Took place in England. The “villian” was a ghost who died from the Black Death that is like haunting this town or attacking people. Electricity was a big aspect of it. It followed a girl as she moved to a new town. She made friends with a few people in school (there’s a love interest, a really smart girl, another girl, and their American teacher and they like hunt the ghost together). I’m pretty sure at some point a school bus freezes supernaturally.

Does this sound familiar to anyone? Did I dream this book up because I’ve spent years trying to find it and I can’t for the life of me!

Please help 🙏

Edit: I think someone found it: “Shadow Breakers” by Daniel Blythe, but im gonna get it from the library and confirm!

Religion is so fascinating as a concept. The more I learn about ancient histories and how religion has been shaped and formed from the some of the same belief systems…. I realize we are great storytellers.

Honestly, my mind is foggy so I have no clue if I have asked this question yet 😂 This is one of my favourite questions I see, I love seeing all of the different/similar opinions for this one!

✨ What is your LEAST favourite book trope and why?

For me it definitely has to be memory loss tropes. Nope, cannot stomach them. Memory loss tropes have me stressing the whole time, I’m more stressed than the actual characters are 😩 I don’t think I have ever enjoyed a memory loss trope, I personally just do not see the appeal in them

I used the search bar to look for this and could not find anything, so I wanted to know if anyone on this app have any personal icks?

One of mine is half naked men on the cover , kind of like the old Heated Rivalry covers . Plus the MMC's being named Hayden ( any spelling ) , or a super duper clingy FMC . Admins can remove this if this has been asked but curiosity gets the better of me this morning
