Magic & Soul

By Leilei Malatse

“Art Heist” is about the magic that are within the art pieces in the world. Eliza gets to experience them firsthand when she goes into a museum after hours and is entranced by how the painting moves her.

“Gone” is a coming of age story about Cara who is going to fight for what she wants by standing up to her parents and running out the door. Life is short and not many get to go after their dreams but she isn’t one of them.

“Heartbeat” will have readers in chaos but enjoying the peace within found by a couple.

“Pride in Me” is about Peolwane, who is about to take her place in her tribe, but her cousin, the king, has something else in mind for her. Peolwane has to battle her doubts and those of the tribe’s. Coming back home wasn’t supposed to be this dramatic.
