I'm really glad I found this community, I read a looot of books, so hopefully I can contribute in answering questions as well as getting help!

Speaking of which, I just remembered a YA fantasy novel I read around 2008. It has (at least) two main characters, a boy and a girl, whose perspectives are switched between. The girl is a dragon/fairy creature locked away in a tower and has been since she was little, and the person who locks her in stole her wings - ripped/cut them right off her back, I remember them describing the wounds. I think the captor claims she saved the girl from being murdered. The captor wears the wings as a cape, and either uses them to fly or is trying to figure out how to use them to fly. Near the end of the book the girl breaks out of her room and finds her wings up on the wall, at which point her magic calls to them and they reattach. She flies away and meets the boy who was racing to the tower on horseback.

That's as much as I can remember! One or two details might be slightly wrong, but I distinctly remember the scene where her wings flew to her and reattached to the scarred nubs on her back.

Any help appreciated!

Back in the early 2000s I was in like 6th or 7th grade and our English teacher had us read this book. Unfortunately I can’t remember what book it is.

All I do remember is that it was about a young boy who is in like a modern setting, who encounters this strange house that (if I am remembering correctly) was kind of alive?? And he meets some peculiar people. One of the people he meets is this young girl who he befriends and they work together to (possibly) escape the house?? I remember a random scene when the boy or the girl was trapped in a hole? The story gives me this Coraline feel about it. Kind of creepy.

I wish I could remember more about the story so that I could describe it better but I can’t. I need help finding out what this story was.

ive tried searching this everywhere, basically it's a book where a boy (teenager?) is trapped in some town, as in when he tries to leave it and run away no matter how far he runs he's still in the town. When he tries to run there some significance about how the trees looked the same or something or they all looked identical so he would get lost in the forest but still be in the town? Then, at some point, he uses a computer in a public library or something and has people waiting on him maybe, to search up like a name or a thing or something. This alerts like the government or some agency that it has been searched so they make a chat pop up on his screen asking like who he is and why he searched that, and he responds also asking "who r u". They figure this means he is a teenager since he used r and u. I think this happened at the end of the book? There might have been someone in the town trying to make him stay too, and there was something evil about the town? Thats about all i remember but its driving me crazy! anything helps thanks!
