Vitro, A School for Unusual Girls, and Au Revoir Crazy European Chick sound right up my alley, whether in book or movie form. Hopefully one of these would be picked up - seems like they would make a nice change from all the dystopian movies that are trending lately!

It reminds me of The Warriors series which I LOVED.

Charles DeLint I've heard is a big urban fantasy guy but this is the only book by him I've read. It's not MG but it has a whimsical, almost fairy tale quality to it- great for kids and good in a different way for adults, I think. A very powerful ending too, at least for me.
