The Goldfish Boy
Summary
In this riveting debut, a boy struggling with OCD is uniquely qualified to solve a kidnapping. Lisa Thompson's debut novel is a pause-resisting mystery with an emotionally driven, complex character study at its core - like Rear Window meets The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time. Matthew Corbin suffers from severe obsessive-compulsive disorder. He hasn't been to school in weeks. His hands are cracked and bleeding from cleaning. He refuses to leave his bedroom. To pass the time, he observes his neighbors from his bedroom window, making mundane notes about their habits as they bustle about the cul-de-sac. When a toddler staying next door goes missing, it becomes apparent that Matthew was the last person to see him alive. Suddenly, Matthew finds himself at the center of a high-stakes mystery, and every one of his neighbors is a suspect. Matthew is the key to figuring out what happened and potentially saving a child's life...but is he able to do so if it means exposing his own secrets and stepping out from the safety of his home?

The Day I Was Erased
Summary
"Sometimes I think everyone would be better off if I’d never existed in the first place."
Nothing's going right for Maxwell Beckett. He's being blamed for his best friend's bloody nose - it was an accident! - his parents can't stop shouting at each other, and he just broke his neighbor's bright pink flamingo lawn ornament. So when Maxwell turns off the power in his school during a giant fundraiser, it's the last straw. He’s sure that now the whole town hates him.
Maxwell is sick and tired of getting things wrong. He wishes he had never been born. And then...his wish comes true.
He's been erased.
Though Maxwell can walk through the world, nobody recognizes him. Even his own parents don't know him! Every impact he’s ever had on his town is gone. But the world might not actually be a better place without Maxwell in it. Can he find a way back in, or is it too late?
With echoes of It’s a Wonderful Life, this is a humorous and poignant book about the positive impact each of us has on our community and on the people who love us.
