Jared Peter Christensen is running for president (of the Junior Class Council at his university, but still). His platform is solid--built on increased equity and inclusion in all sectors of campus life--and he's got a good chance of beating the deeply conservative business major he's running against.

But when a transfer student enters the race, she calls Jared out for his big-talk/little-action way of moving. Dylan's accusations make him question just how "woke" he really is. But what's the right way to bring about change? As the campaign heats up, feelings are caught, and juicy secrets come to light, and Jared writes letters to his deceased friend Manny, hoping to make sense of his confusion. What's a white boy to do when love and politics collide? Will he have to choose between his head and his heart?

Atlas has lost her way.

In a last-ditch effort to pull her life together, she's working on a community service program rehabbing trails in the Western Sierras. The only plus is that the days are so exhausting that Atlas might just be tired enough to forget that this was one of her dad's favorite places in the world. Before cancer stole him from her life, that is.

Using real names is forbidden on the trail. So Atlas becomes Maps, and with her team--Books, Sugar, Junior, and King--she heads into the wilderness. As she sheds the lies she's built up as walls to protect herself, she realizes that four strangers might know her better than anyone has before. And with the end of the trail racing to meet them, Maps is left counting down the days until she returns to her old life--without her new family, and without King, who's become more than just a friend.

From Michael L. Printz Award winner A.S. King, a weird and insightful new novel about a girl intent on picking the lock of her toxic family.

Jane Vandermaker-Cook would like her mother back. As Jane's mother tours the world to support the family, Jane lives and goes to school in a Victorian mansion with her younger brother and their mendacious father who confines Jane's mother to a system of pneumatic tubes whenever she's at home. And then there's weirdly ever-present Aunt Finch, Milorad the gardener, and his rat, Brutus. For Jane, this all seems normal until she suddenly gains access to the files for a lifetime of security-camera videos--her lifetime.

A.S. King's latest surrealist masterpiece follows Jane's bizarre and brilliant journey to reconnect with her mother by breaking out of her shell and composing a punk opera.

Ari terminó la preparatoria y está listo para comenzar su vida: mudarse a la gran ciudad, triunfar con su banda ultra cool y, sobre todo, dejar la panadería familiar, si logra convencer a su papá.

Cuando era niño disfrutaba trabajar ahí, pero ahora no se imagina pasar el resto de sus días amasando y horneando, pues lo que quiere es tener historias que contar.

Mientras entrevista a candidatos para reemplazarlo, conoce a Héctor, un chico lindo que ama la panadería tanto como él quiere escapar de ella. Ari y Héctor tienen una química inexplicable que los acerca más y más con cada receta que comparten y con cada charola de pan que sale del horno. El amor está listo para florecer... si es que Ari no lo arruina antes.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A story as warm and sweet... as freshly baked bread.

"Innocent, uncomplicated, and irresistible. The story is baked to perfection: a crush that turns into infatuation, and later into a great love, set in a bakery with warm ovens, packed shelves, and delicious Greek pastries." -- Los Angeles Review of Books

Ari has graduated high school and is ready to start his life--move to the big city, make it big with his ultra-cool band, and most of all, leave the family bakery behind, if he can convince his dad.

As a child, he loved working there, but now he can't imagine spending the rest of his life kneading and baking. What he really wants is to have stories to tell.

While interviewing candidates to replace him, he meets Héctor, a charming guy who loves the bakery as much as Ari wants to escape from it. Ari and Héctor have an inexplicable chemistry, bringing them closer with every recipe they share and every tray of bread fresh out of the oven. Love is ready to rise... if Ari doesn't mess it up first.

Kevin Panetta and Savanna Ganucheau have created the perfect recipe for a graphic novel: first love, delicious pastries, wrong decisions--but also the wonder of finding the right people, the ones who turn growing up into an incredible adventure.

Through her school days, where she must negotiate a precarious balancing act between her culture and fitting in, to her teenage years where appetites must be managed to keep up appearances, to her early adulthood where responsibilities feel overwhelming, Divya journeys from feelings of emptiness to once again finding fulfilment within.

To the Last Gram is an honest and hopeful story of feeling at odds with and finding a home in one's community, family, and body, and of the unfurling journey to embrace the fullness of life.

From the author of I'd Rather Burn Than Bloom, winner of the Asian/Pacific American Award for Youth Literature, comes a sharply observed YA novel about friendship, family, and self-discovery, amid a backdrop of a Filipino debut.

Lucia Cruz may be turning eighteen this year, but she is not the debutante type. Everything about a traditional Filipino debut feels all wrong for her. Besides, custom dictates that eighteen friends attend her for a special ceremony on her birthday, and Lucia only has one friend- Esmé Mares. They've stuck to each other's side all throughout high school, content to be friends with only each other. At least, Lucia thought they were content.

As it turns out, Esmé wants something different out of her senior year. And, on top of that, Lucia's mom has planned a debutante ball for her birthday behind her back. She'll be forced to cobble together a court of eighteen "friends" before her beloved lola arrives from the Philippines for this blessed occasion.

How far will Lucia stray from her comfort zone in order to play the role of dutiful daughter and granddaughter? Will she do the unthinkable- participating in a school sponsored activity? Will she discover that her sense of humor can be a way to connect with people, not just push them away?
