Her unborn baby was threatened by the fast-spreading cancer that already spread to her lymph nodes. Doctors told her she needed to abort her baby to save her own life.

Bridge
It's cruel enough to be trapped in Midnight World, the dark and uncertain water world for the souls of the dead. It's torture to have to piece together the memory of your mortal life from "bridges"- moments when the dead re-experience bits of their mortal life and regain those memories. For REIN, every opportunity to bridge is treasurable since they could provide valuable information about where ERINESE, the love of his mortal life, might have gone or what she might have done after he died. When an opportunity to bridge presents itself, Rein takes it at a high cost. Now aimless and without supplies in the abysmal darkness of Midnight World, Rein persists in his search to find Erinese in spite of being hunted by "Takers"- luminous beings who take souls from Midnight World, ending the last and only existence they know.

She quickly discovers she must confront not only her enemy, but the strengths and weakness inside her when she becomes scarb herself.
Stormdragon
Dragons are more fun than Algebra. And epic battle scenes are easier to manipulate than the arguments in Jonas's kitchen. In real life, Jonas's sister Emma babbles nonsense from her wheelchair.

Elijah & the SAT: Reflections on a Hairy, Old, Desert Prophet and the Benchmarking of Our Children's Lives
A curious braid of memoir, social commentary, and biblical narrative woven together into one compelling storyline. Davis began writing the book as a commentary, primarily, but as she wrote the real-time memoir portion began to take on a life of its own. Fans of Davis' debut memoir Baptism by Fire will recognize Elijah as something of a sequel. At a time when parents are crying out for answers to the relentless pressure and purposelessness that their children are experiencing, a new answer emerges - an answer as old as time.
