O mau exemplo de Cameron Post
Quando os pais de Cameron Post morrem em um acidente de carro, a primeira coisa que ela sente, para sua própria surpresa, é alívio. Alívio que eles nunca vão precisar saber que, algumas horas antes, ela estava beijando uma menina. Mas o alívio não dura, e Cam é forçada a morar com sua tia ultraconservadora e sua bem-intencionada mas antiquada avó. Ela sabe que, daqui em diante, tudo será diferente. Sobreviver nessa pequena cidade rural de Montana exige que Cam finja ser igual a todo mundo e evite assuntos indelicados (como diria sua avó), e ela é boa nisso. Até que Coley Taylor chega à cidade. Coley é perfeita, e tem um namorado perfeito para completar. Ela e Cam forjam uma a...
Darius, o Grande, não está nada bem
Darius Kellner fala klingon melhor do que farsi, e sabe mais sobre as condutas sociais dos hobbits do que as persas. Ele está prestes a fazer sua primeira viagem para o Irã, mas se sente desnorteado — principalmente tendo que lidar com a depressão, um pai distante e uma vida social praticamente inexistente. O problema é que Darius nunca se sentiu "persa" o suficiente. O Irã deveria ser tão parte dele quanto os Estados Unidos, mas é estranho chamar de lar um país em que você nunca viveu. Mas quando Darius conhece Sohrab, o menino da casa ao lado, tudo muda. Em pouco tempo eles já estão passando o dia juntos, jogando futebol, comendo faludeh e conversando por horas em um telhado secreto com vista para a cidade inteira. Darius, o Grande, não está nada bem é o primeiro livro de Adib Khorram. A obra ganhou YALSA's William C. Morris Award de melhor autor estreante para adolescentes, o Asian/Pacific American Literature Association's Young Adult Award e o Boston Globe-Horn Book Award Honor.

Lithuanian Jewish Communities
This volume lists, in alphabetical order, the major Jewish communities that existed in Lithuania before World War II. The name of each community is accompanied by information about it: when it was founded, the Jewish population in different years, shops and synagogues, and the names of citizens. An appendix locates each town on a map of Lithuania. Since most of the Jewish communities in Lithuania were destroyed in the Holocaust, this volume will be a valuable tool in recreating a picture of Lithuanian Jewry.
Leveled
We all need a hero...let the Saints of Denver begin Orlando Frederick knows what it is to be leveled by pain.

As attraction simmers and flares, Dom sees that Lando needs repair of his own...if only the man will let him close enough to mend what's broken.

The Authentics
The Authentics is a fresh, funny, and insightful novel about culture, love, and family—the kind we are born into and the ones we create. Daria Esfandyar is Iranian-American and proud of her heritage, unlike some of the “Nose Jobs” in the clique led by her former best friend, Heidi Javadi. Daria and her friends call themselves the Authentics, because they pride themselves on always keeping it real. But in the course of researching a school project, Daria learns something shocking about her past, which launches her on a journey of self-discovery. It seems everyone is keeping secrets. And it’s getting harder to know who she even is any longer. With infighting among the Authentics, her mother planning an over-the-top sweet sixteen party, and a romance that should be totally off limits, Daria doesn’t have time for this identity crisis. As everything in her life is spinning out of control—can she figure out how to stay true to herself?
