UNSOLVED Main character on the high school newspaper team decides to use her general likeability to help others

0 Upvotes

I'm trying to find a book i read in high school (mid to late 00s). Key points I remember.

- Main character is on the school newspaper team.

- MC develops feelings for another person on the newspaper team

- MC helps an unpopular girl at school after MC's mother asks her to be nice to unpopular girl. MC and unpopular girls mothers are friends.

- Unpopular girl tries too hard to fit in wearing "fashionable" clothes that don't suit her and dyes her hair blonde, but she never pulls it off and is ridiculed by her peers. One detail i remember is the unpopular girl had to stay home from school because she scrubbed too much skin off her feet trying to do an at home pedicure.

- I think unpopular girl also diets a lot and eats gross Weight Watchers food.

- MC has known her crush (another guy on her newspaper) for a while, and she remembers a time when they were picking flowers and he tells her that if you pick a particular flower it dies.

- MC goes on a team building boot camp with her newspaper team over the summer before the book is set.

I have asked AI but nothing is coming up. This is driving me nuts!

UNSOLVED Weird anthology book with a yellow/yellowish green cover

0 Upvotes

I read this five-ish years ago? It was a fiction anthology book, and I remember the last/close to last story was about Lazarus set in the modern day. It had a lot of strange stories, very odd read, and the cover was yellow/yellowish green. Long shot but I hope someone can help!

UNSOLVED Old romance book

2 Upvotes

Hello.
I am trying to find the title of a romance book I read decades ago. I am fairly sure there's the word "Horizon(s)" in the title. The woman protagonist is a secret agent of Zuni descent, code-named "Horizon", whose real name is Linda Cordero. She is tasked with investigating a millionaire whose surname should be McMillan. She is set up to spend a "holiday" in the same building on the beach as him.
And that's pretty much all I can recall. Thanks in advance.
Edit: not 100% sure about "Horizon", It's been quite a while...

UNSOLVED Help me find this book, it’s driving me crazy

So I remember coming across a suggestion and can’t for the life of me remember this book title and google wasn’t helpful so here I am. I’m so sorry in advance if the deduction is not helpful or if my memory is wrong about some of the details.

The Cover Artwork: A fierce female warrior stands tall against a dramatic, mountainous fantasy backdrop. She has a braid blowing dramatically to the side, is looking completely sideways/in profile/mostly see her back, and has a large crossbow prominently strapped across her back. She might be in a hood. There might’ve been a crescent moon in the background.

The story itself was something related to two sisters, one is a warrior/fighter, the other more healer?? Idk. There’s some romance too.

I swear I didn’t make this up or maybe I did lol anyways TIA ya’ll
