Our Strange Duet
Young adult · ages 14–18 · 820L
A genuinely creepy gothic mystery with a deaf protagonist whose disability is her superpower, not her vulnerability — Craig nails the emotional twist, though the pacing sags mid-book.
SMALL FAVORS
Young adult · ages 16–18 · 950L · 2021
A fast-paced thriller for adults that is completely outside the scope of a children's or young-adult recommendation tool due to its explicit content and adult protagonist age.
House of Salt and Sorrows
Young adult · ages 14–18 · 820L · 2019
A lush, melancholic take on the Twelve Dancing Princesses fairy tale that earns its gothic atmosphere through genuine grief—not jump scares—and a complex, morally muddied ending that respects teen readers' intelligence.
