Book Description
"Kemmerer will melt your heart and blow your mind." --#1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout On his own Thomas Bellweather hasn't been in town long. Just long enough for his newlywed mother to be murdered, and for his new stepdad's cop colleagues to decide Thomas is the primary suspect. Not that there's any evidence. But before Thomas got to Frederick there had only been one other murder in twenty years. The only person who believes him is Charlotte Rooker, little sister to three cops and, with her soft hands and sweet curves, straight-up dangerous to Thomas. Her friend was the other murder vic. And she’d like a couple answers….Answers that could get them both killed, and reveal a truth Thomas would die to keep hidden. The more they dig, the more it seems the only way they'll hear the real story is from the source--the killer. Not the kind of future plan a college recruiter likes to hear. But then, the better it works, the less likely either of them is going to have a future. . .

Soon, Laurel has a notebook full of letters to people like Janis Joplin, Amy Winehouse, Amelia Earhart, Heath Ledger, and more—though she never gives a single one of them to her teacher. She writes about starting high school, navigating new friendships, falling in love for the first time, learning to live with her splintering family.

And only when Laurel has begun to see her sister as the person she was—lovely and amazing and deeply flawed—can she begin to discover her own path.

The Lost Letters
Author: Normandy Ortiz
Publisher: Balboa Press
ISBN: 1504359437
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
"The Lost Letters" are the accounts of an ensemble of characters within the four kingdoms: Halyx, Eryx, Venidenn and Thayd. Four rich and diverse lands separated by great walls of solid bronze. At the epicenter of these walls, lies a mysterious golden land, believed to be uninhabitable and shining brightly at all times of the day. Our story begins at the All-Festival, a union of the four kings and their respective kingdoms. One of these, the great king Arsinoe, becomes obsessed with the wonder of the golden lands. In a selfish moment of adventure, he scales the wall to find the unexpected and unravels his own perspective about the truth beyond the wall. As time goes on, the world begins to take a dark turn, and our eyes are opened to the manifestations of corruption, scandal and even the supernatural. "The Lost Letters" sheds light on the first decisions of man. As a rebellion breaks, who is rebelling will be called in to question.

Diary of a Lonely Girl, or The Battle against Free Love
Author: Miriam Karpilove
Publisher: Syracuse University Press
ISBN: 0815654901
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 345
Book Description
First published serially in the Yiddish daily newspaper di Varhayt in 1916–18, Diary of a Lonely Girl, or The Battle against Free Love is a novel of intimate feelings and scandalous behaviors, shot through with a dark humor. From the perch of a diarist writing in first person about her own love life, Miriam Karpilove’s novel offers a snarky, melodramatic criticism of radical leftist immigrant youth culture in early twentieth-century New York City. Squeezed between men who use their freethinking ideals to pressure her to be sexually available and nosy landladies who require her to maintain her respectability, the narrator expresses frustration at her vulnerable circumstances with wry irreverence. The novel boldly explores issues of consent, body autonomy, women’s empowerment and disempowerment around sexuality, courtship, and politics. Karpilove immigrated to the United States from a small town near Minsk in 1905 and went on to become one of the most prolific and widely published women writers of prose in Yiddish. Kirzane’s skillful translation gives English readers long-overdue access to Karpilove’s original and provocative voice.
