Andria’s comments from the What's the Name of That Book??? group.

Perhaps Legacy of the Clockwork Key?

Kassi - this might help: http://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by...

No worries. It's a bit overwhelming for newbies, I know. Happy to help, and glad you found your book!

Possibly: Hunted

"Callum Scott sees ghosts, all the time, everywhere. It’s not because he lives in a creepy tiny cottage near a graveyard and the abandoned ruins of a church—it’s because he is a “chime child,” born on a full moon between midnight Friday and dawn Saturday. He doesn’t talk about it with anyone; his mother is dead, his father is absent, and his grandmother would never believe it. But when a huge, particularly evil-looking black dog and a pale boy dripping blood start following him, he is unnerved. And well he should be, as the barrier between the human world and the demon realm is disintegrating like it does every hundred years, and only the chime children can keep humanity safe."

Perhaps: Letters from the Ministry

Possibly: The Monster's Ring

This was the first thing that came to mind:

The Goddess Test

Laurie - I don't remember a lot of details, and I'm not sure if any of what I remember is spoilery or not but I'll hide it anyway (view spoiler)[ the main character is kidnapped and imprisoned in underground bunker. Other kidnapped teens also imprisoned there. They don't know who kidnapped them or why. They try to communicate with kidnapper and survive. (hide spoiler)] It's a grim, gritty read. People seem to either love or hate it.

The Bunker Diaryby Kevin Brooks. it's positively claustrophobic.

Or maybe The Girl of Fire and Thorns

Possibly Incarceron?

Yay! Happy to help!

I think this is Breaking Rank

"For 12 years, the black-clad members of "the Clan" have slunk through school, driving teachers crazy by calmly refusing to work or to speak to anyone. But one day Thomas, aka "Baby " to his Clan fellows, clandestinely takes a placement test and is identified as gifted. Over her parents' objections, Casey, a good student friendly with the jock/cheerleader set, responds to the guidance counselor's request for her help and becomes Baby's after-school tutor."

There is often crossover between MG and YA so I made a suggestion. Good luck finding your book.

You're welcome! It's come up a few times in this group before. Glad we could help :)

I can't remember a lot of details, but your description reminds me of: Johnny Hazzard

Maybe, The Seventh Door?

Yay! Happy to help. :)

Sounds like: A Circle of Time

Yay! You're welcome. Happy to help. :)
