Blue to the sky / by McNicoll, Sylvia,1954-;
"Twelve-year-old Ella experiences a rich and vivid world through her passion for poetry and music, but the kids at school only know her as Allergic-To-Everything-Girl. After six years of homeschooling following her last anaphylactic reaction, Ella returns to school in sixth grade with a fear of another allergic reaction, a fear of losing Mom just as she lost Omi, and a fear of public speaking, which stops her from presenting her poems and sharing her passion. When her best friend, Zenia, convinces Ella to sign up for the CN Tower climb to raise money for charity and to befriend two cute boys, Ella is sure that performing her poem at the top of the tower will cure her of stage fright. Training to climb 1,776 steps is no small task, but even against impossible odds, Ella must find the courage to face, navigate, and conquer her fears"--

Idol, burning : a novel / by Usami, Rin,1999-author.; Yoneda, Asa,translator.; translation of:Usami, Rin,1999-Oshi, moyu.English.;
"Akari is a high school junior obsessed with "oshi" Masaki Ueno, a member of the popular J-Pop group Maza Maza. She writes a blog devoted to him, and spends hours addictively scrolling for information about him and his life. Desperate to analyze and understand him, Akari hopes to eventually see the world through his eyes. It is a devotion that borders on the religious: Masaki is her savior, her backbone, someone she believes she cannot survive without-even though she's never actually met him. When rumors surface that her idol assaulted a female fan, social media explodes. Akari immediately begins sifting through everything she can find about the scandal, and shares every detail to her blog-including Masaki's denials and pleas to his fans-drawing numerous readers eager for her updates. But the organized, knowledgeable persona Akari presents online is totally different from the socially awkward, unfocused teenager she is in real life. As Masaki's situation spirals, his troubles threaten to tear apart her life too. Instead of finding a way to break free to save herself, Akari becomes even more fanatical about Masaki, still believing her idol is the only person who understands her"--
