OLDER FICTION
Jones, Carrie

Flying

(3) YA Seventeen-year-old cheerleader Mana's world gets turned upside down the night she discovers her overprotective mother is an alien hunter who has disappeared with a highly sought-after piece of technology. Cinematic fight scenes (e.g., Mana jumping like a superhero while fighting her suddenly green acid–spitting crush) and snarky dialogue straight out of a cheesy B-movie make the pages fly in this lighthearted, absurd sci-fi tale.
