Pages : 231
Book Description
I’m not an orphan; I just feel like one. When my father dropped me off at Larkspur Academy with nothing more than my backpack, I didn’t know what to expect. Definitely not: A mean girl who looks exactly like me. A forbidden library full of mysterious books. or . . . A paranormal mystery I didn’t ask for and can’t possibly solve on my own. Why me? Why now? Will the answers help me rein in an escaped power that threatens my classmates, my family, and possibly, the world? *** Book-smart and curious Mina Parker loves homeschool life, along with lessons shared by her neighbor and only friend, Kane. The day after her sixteenth birthday, however, her idyllic days come to an end when her widowed father insists she attend Larkspur Academy, an elite boarding school on the very edge of their small town. Unceremoniously dropped off at Larkspur’s front door, Mina finds herself at the mercy of the academy’s headmaster, her Uncle Reed. She’s never met him or his daughter, Sunny, who introduces herself by locking Mina alone in the girls’ restroom, even as Mina realizes that her cousin is the very mirror image of herself. But life at Larkspur shifts from miserable to magical when Mina discovers a secret in the secret school library, one that makes her question her identity, her knowledge, and most of all, her inner strength. Can she she face the challenge, even if it means reaching out to her classmates for help, or will she leave a powerful mystery unsolved, exposing everyone at Larkspur, the town, and beyond to unimaginable danger? Nancy Drew meets Cardcaptor Sakura in this new magical mystery adventure from the teen author of the Arda Academy and The Changeling Covenant trilogies.

Fat City
Author: Leonard Gardner
Publisher: New York Review of Books
ISBN: 1590178939
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 201
Book Description
Fat City is a vivid novel of allegiance and defeat, of the potent promise of the good life and the desperation and drink that waylay those whom it eludes. Stockton, California is the setting: the Lido Gym, the Hotel Coma, Main Street lunchrooms and dingy bars, days like long twilights in houses obscured by untrimmed shrubs and black walnut trees. When two men meet in the ring -- the retired boxer Billy Tully and the newcomer Ernie Munger - their brief bout sets into motion their hidden fates, initiating young Ernie into the company of men and luring Tully back into training. In a dispassionate and composed voice, Gardner narrates their swings of fortune, and the plodding optimism of their manager Ruben Luna, as he watches the most promising boys one by one succumb to some undefined weakness; still, "There was always someone who wanted to fight."
