Book Description
I gently closed my secret journal upon finishing my last entry for Trinthnia Academy. I placed my signature, Zazzlina Kolia, Light Fae Princess on the last page. I closed my eyes for a moment as my mind drifted back to that first letter, four years ago, telling me to report here to school. Little did I know I’d become friends with mer people, dragons, pixies, elementals, canine shifters, feline shifters, angels. I passed vampires and witches in the hallway at school as if it happened every day. We watched as our beloved school and property started dying beneath our feet, as the water turned to blood; we all pulled together to save the school and the land. I’ve had to fight for my life as a Demon ‘took” me, turned my twin Tiana to a Witch. I opened my eyes as visions, some pleasant, many very painful flashed across my eyes as if on an invisible screen. The one good thing that happened to me at this strange school was now standing in front of me. My handsome, bonded fae Oberon who gently smiled down at me as he extended a hand to help me up. They call me Zazz. I am Fae. This is my story of survival.

Book Description
The New York Times bestselling journalist and author of The Girls from Ames, Jeffrey Zaslow, takes us to a multi- generational family owned small-town bridal shop to explore the emotional lives of women in the 21st century. You may not have heard of Fowler, Michigan, much less Becker's Bridal. But for the thousands of women who have stepped inside, Becker's is the site of some of the most important moments of their lives-moments that speak to us all. Housed in a former bank, the boutique owners transformed the vault into a "magic room," with soft church lighting, a circular pedestal, and mirrors that make lifelong dreams come true. Illuminating the poignant aspects of a woman's journey to the altar, The Magic Room tells the stories of memorable women on the brink of commitment. Run by the same family for years, Becker's has witnessed transformations in how America views the institution of marriage; some of the shop's clientele are becoming stepmothers, or starting married life for a second time. In The Girls from Ames, beloved author Jeffrey Zaslow used friendships to explore the emotional lives of women. In The Magic Room, he turns his perceptive eye to weddings and weaves together secrets, memories and family tales to explore the hopes and dreams we have for our daughters.

The Prom

Category : Young Adult Fiction

Pages : 241
Book Description
Based on the musical that inspired the Netflix film starring Meryl Streep, Nicole Kidman, Kerry Washington, Keegan-Michael Key, James Corden, Andrew Rannells, and Ariana DeBose! Emma Nolan and Alyssa Greene share the same goal: debut as a couple at their senior prom. Only a few things stand in their way—okay, maybe more than a few. For one, Alyssa hasn’t come out yet. It’s not that she doesn’t want to, but with a mother on the PTA who will stop at nothing to prevent same-sex couples from attending prom, it’s not a conversation she’s eager to have—with good reason. Before long, Mrs. Greene has the entire town backing her up, and it’s starting to look as though Emma and Alyssa won’t get their happily-ever-after. Then, out of the blue, two Broadway stars arrive on the scene to fight on the girls’ behalf (and get a little publicity along the way). But when their good intentions fall flat, it’s up to Emma and Alyssa to take matters into their own hands and show their small Indiana town—and the world—that love is love is love.
