Book Description
From debut author Lisa Moore Ramée comes this funny and big-hearted debut middle grade novel about friendship, family, and standing up for what’s right, perfect for fans of Angie Thomas’s The Hate U Give and the novels of Renée Watson and Jason Reynolds. Twelve-year-old Shayla is allergic to trouble. All she wants to do is to follow the rules. (Oh, and she’d also like to make it through seventh grade with her best friendships intact, learn to run track, and have a cute boy see past her giant forehead.) But in junior high, it’s like all the rules have changed. Now she’s suddenly questioning who her best friends are and some people at school are saying she’s not black enough. Wait, what? Shay’s sister, Hana, is involved in Black Lives Matter, but Shay doesn't think that's for her. After experiencing a powerful protest, though, Shay decides some rules are worth breaking. She starts wearing an armband to school in support of the Black Lives movement. Soon everyone is taking sides. And she is given an ultimatum. Shay is scared to do the wrong thing (and even more scared to do the right thing), but if she doesn't face her fear, she'll be forever tripping over the next hurdle. Now that’s trouble, for real. "Tensions are high over the trial of a police officer who shot an unarmed Black man. When the officer is set free, and Shay goes with her family to a silent protest, she starts to see that some trouble is worth making."

Book Description
Emerson “Sunni” Day has no one. Her mother is a gambling addict, and her father works on oil rigs and couldn’t care less about her. On the first day of Kindergarten, she meets a girl named Delia Badd. Delia is the oldest daughter of Sebastian and Dru Badd. Over the years, Emerson becomes more and more like family to the Badds, until eventually, she lives with them and considers Delia her sister and Duncan and Dane—Bast and Dru’s hellraiser sons—her brothers. Now, she’s home for the holidays and about to graduate college. She’s got no plans to meet anyone. Her future is soccer—making the US Women’s National Team. That’s it. Anything—and anyone—else is just a distraction. Hayden McCaffrey’s entire world is his parents. He went to college in town, works from home so he can be near them, and has no plans to change anything. And then, a few weeks before his parents were set to go on a fiftieth-anniversary Christmas cruise to Alaska, tragedy strikes, and Hayden finds himself accompanying his mother on the cruise. And he hates boats. With low expectations for their first Christmas after the tragedy, Hayden certainly isn’t expecting to meet a beautiful, fiery redhead with a giant, crazy, adopted family. The Badds do what they do best: pull Hayden and his mother into their orbit and make them feel welcome. Sparks fly between Hayden and Emerson. Sparks are one thing, though: falling in love and making two completely different lives fit together? That’s a whole different ball game. Take a sleigh ride with Hayden, Emerson, Bast, Dru, and all the rest of your favorite Badd and Goode characters in this full-length return to the world of the Badd Brothers, set twenty years after the events of the original series. It’s going to be a Very Badd Christmas, indeed.

Book Description
An unidentified virus is decimating the world. A highly ranked government scientist who had previously warned against such a potential peril is quick to recognize its virulence and the devastation it could cause. He convinces the president of the US to isolate all units of the Navy currently at sea and urgently trasfer equipment and scientists to these vessels to commence development of a cure. The world is rapidly succumbing to the pandemic except for one city, the most isolated capital city in the world, where early advice enabled the government to close down all trasport links (rail, road, air and sea). This effectively quarantined the population, though not without some necessary harsh actions. Aware that this city could not maintain its unifected status without armed forces assistance, the US navy ships are ordered there immediately and placed under command of its government. This decision benefits the US fleet as they could not remain at sea for the duration required to develop a cure, so this secure land base was vital if mankind was to have a future. Quick responses from the UK and France allowed some of their ships to set sail before they too were decimated. Although there are problems with their vessels they too join the US ships and place themselves under command of the local government. The search for a cure is not the only priority, as many isolated communities around the world have made contact with the city seeking urgent assistance. Helping these people was of vital importance if mankind was to be saved. But anarchy reigned where survivors with a natural immunity to the virus had reverted to a dark ages mentality at an alarmingly rapid rate; gangs roamed the streets, taking what they wanted and raiding communities that had managed to isolate themselves from the plague. Realising that when and if a cure is found, this city will be the most powerful force left in the world, the politics of the future must be decided... Meanwhile, at city offices, the Premier of the state is desperately organizing an authority that supersedes all previous levels of government to overcome the bureaucratic quagmire that has arisen. Actions must be rapidly approved and carried out in this time of crisis, so to that end, and based mainly on a strong sense of perception, he appoints an unusual young man to this senior position.
