Book Description
"As miserable as I was, I had a great way of not crying. Whenever a lump welled up inside my throat, I swallowed real hard and counted to ten and thought about things in this world that I hate, things like speed bumps and raisin pie and the smell of cat pee on carpet." Syd Callens moves to Augusta, Georgia, with her dying father and her mom. In her raw state of loss and loneliness, she resents the fact that he's the one who "got taken." Little does she know, high school misadventures await: on day one, she meets Megan and Ashley, who possess none of that southern charm but who seem to want to persecute Syd at every turn. Syd also meets Mel, a sarcastic oddball who shares a secret about an illegal wild animal she keeps in her bathtub. Then Mel disappears. "It's like she offered me friendship then yanked it away." Syd makes it her mission to find and save Mel.

Pages : 172
Book Description
Sugar and Dirt is the inspiring coming-of-age story of a young émigré during one of the stormiest eras in recent American history. F.P. Romero's stirring memoirs begin in Cuba, where his affluent family loses everything to Fidel Castro's revolution and is forced to flee with scarcely more than the clothes on their backs. Having to start over in Miami, the family struggles with refugee life but resolves to pursue the American Dream. F.P. describes his idyllic years at the elite McCullough Academy, his departure from McCullough, and his startling descent into a world of violence and malice. His reckless decline into drug-fueled dissipation threatens to consume him until a girl and a chance discovery change his life forever. Told with a unique blend of wit, candor, and pathos, Sugar and Dirt recounts F.P.'s early life of privilege, his tragic fall from grace, and his hard-earned redemption. It is a story of true American reinvention.
