The Grounding of Group 6 by Julian F. Thompson

The people in their group, Group 6, were all sixteen, all five of them and none of them was fat.

Imagine finding out the private boarding school you have been sent to was not where you will study but you will be killed. The members of Group 6 find this out because their teacher has a change of heart and cannot kill them. The group stays together in the woods learning to live off the land, evading killers and dealing with the realization their parents hate them enough to kill them.

Great questions asked of the reader not just what if? but what kind of person are you?

The Tarot Cafe Volume 1 by Sang-Sun Park

It's not difficult to guess what happened to my clients in the past.
Four stories that begin with a Tarot card reading to try to solve a problem.

I am both amazed and disturbed at the images. All the characters look female and somehow that seems wrong. However, the artwork is wonderful! The stories are interesting and capture my attention but too short for my taste.
