Waifs and Strays by Charles de Lint is a collection of short stories about teenagers. As usual they are complex, mysterious and heartfelt. I totally recommend them.

Fray by Joss Whedon is a graphic novel of a future slayer. She's tough, gorgeous, complex and far more interesting than Buffy ever was. A future world where there are enough mutants that no-one cares of you have fangs what with the scales and fins. Fray has the strength but not the dreams of a 'destiny' and is leery of 'lurks' after they killed her brother. Tres cool.

Spellbinders: Signs and Wonders by Mike Carey et al, a graphic novel about a girl who moves from Chicago to Salem and lands in the middle of a mage war. Fun!
