May book haul, part 2

So, I know I've shared a pretty big (for me) haul in the beginning of May, but two more books arrived this week and I'd like to share them with you!

So I've bought Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe by Benjamin Alire Sáenz and Half Bad by Sally Green. I've heard amazing stories about the both of them, so I'm very excited to start these in the near future.

From Goodreads:

Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe
Aristotle is an angry teen with a brother in prison. Dante is a know-it-all who has an unusual way of looking at the world. When the two meet at the swimming pool, they seem to have nothing in common. But as the loners start spending time together, they discover that they share a special friendship—the kind that changes lives and lasts a lifetime. And it is through this friendship that Ari and Dante will learn the most important truths about themselves and the kind of people they want to be.

Half Bad (Half Life Trilogy #1) 
Half Bad by Sally Green is a breathtaking debut novel about one boy's struggle for survival in a hidden society of witches.
You can't read, can't write, but you heal fast, even for a witch.
You get sick if you stay indoors after dark.
You hate White Witches but love Annalise, who is one.

You've been kept in a cage since you were fourteen.
All you've got to do is escape and find Mercury, the Black Witch who eats boys. And do that before your seventeenth birthday. 
Easy.

Without their dust jackets.
