Don't Let The Forest In by Cg Drews

As alluring as it is unsettling, award-winning author CG Drews' debut YA psychological horror will leave readers breathless and hesitant to venture deeper into the woods. Once upon a time, Andrew had cut out his heart and given it to this boy, and he was very sure Thomas had no idea that Andrew would do anything for him. Protect him. Lie for him. Kill for him. High school senior Andrew Perrault finds refuge in the twisted fairytales that he writes for the only person who can ground him to reality—Thomas Rye, the boy with perpetually ink-stained hands and hair like autumn leaves. And with his twin sister, Dove, inexplicably keeping him at a cold distance upon their return to Wickwood Academy, Andrew finds himself leaning on his friend even more. But something strange is going on with Thomas. His abusive parents have mysteriously vanished, and he arrives at school with blood on his sleeve. Thomas won't say a word about it, and shuts down whenever Andrew tries to ask him questions...

Gauntlgrym by R. A. Salvatore (Legend of Drizzt, #20)

Gauntlgrym is a book of transition and morning. It’s the start of a new phase for Drizzt Do’Urden, fulfills Bruenor’s quest, and launches a new series in the Forgotten Realms. The combat remains excellent, and I’m excited for what’s next.

I’ve been reading about Drizzt for more than ten years, and while it’s hard to reach the phase of his long, long, life where old friends fall to age and battle, I’m very happy with this book. It has contemplation and mourning, but also sets up new things/people to care about and maybe life for as he moves on.

It is a prequel novel to a game, which I haven’t played (though I’ve played other Forgotten Realms games), and I think there’s enough here that anyone reading it because of the game will have things to like, and anyone reading it because they already read books about Drizzt will not be disappointed.
