Whispers Under Ground
Whispers Under Ground by Ben Aaronovitch (Science Fiction, Fantasy, Science, Health)
This is the third volume in the Peter Grant series. I would definitely check this series out if you are a fan of Jim Butcher's Harry Dresden series. -- Added by JamieBeckman on 01/13/2013

Don't Let Me Go
Don't Let Me Go by J.H. Trumble (Romance, Women's Fiction, Relationships, Humor)

In Darkness
In Darkness by Nick Lake (Historical Fiction, Westerns, History)
This novel combines the story of a modern-day Haitian teen with that of Toussaint L'Ouverture, who led the slave revolt of Haiti. I thought the historical sections were the strongest part of the book. -- Added by JamieBeckman on 01/11/2013

I Hunt Killers
I Hunt Killers by Barry Lyga (Mystery, Horror, Crime, Business, Politics)
I actually think this teen title has crossover appeal for adults. It is about the son of a notorious serial killer who uses his unwanted skills and knowledge to help catch other killers. -- Added by JamieBeckman on 01/08/2013
