Kings of Fools by Amanda Foody
“On the quest to find her missing mother, prim and proper Enne Salta became reluctant allies with Levi Glaisyer, the city’s most famous con man. Saving his life in the Shadow Game forced Enne to assume the identity of Séance, a mysterious underworld figure. Now, with the Chancellor of the Republic dead and bounties on both their heads, she and Levi must play a dangerous game of crime and politics…with the very fate of New Reynes at stake.
Thirsting for his freedom and the chance to build an empire, Levi enters an unlikely partnership with the estranged son of mafia donna Vianca Augustine. Meanwhile, Enne remains trapped by Vianca’s binding oath, playing the roles of both darling lady and cunning street lord, unsure which side of herself reflects the truth.
As Enne and Levi walk a path of unimaginable wealth and opportunity, new relationships and deadly secrets could quickly lead them into ruin. And when unforeseen players enter the game, they must each make an impossible choice: sacrifice everything they’ve earned in order to survive…
Or die as legends.”
Love from A to Z by S. K. Ali
“A marvel: something you find amazing. Even ordinary-amazing. Like potatoes—because they make French fries happen. Like the perfect fries Adam and his mom used to make together.
An oddity: whatever gives you pause. Like the fact that there are hateful people in the world. Like Zayneb’s teacher, who won’t stop reminding the class how “bad” Muslims are.
But Zayneb, the only Muslim in class, isn’t bad. She’s angry.
When she gets suspended for confronting her teacher, and he begins investigating her activist friends, Zayneb heads to her aunt’s house in Doha, Qatar, for an early start to spring break.
Fueled by the guilt of getting her friends in trouble, she resolves to try out a newer, “nicer” version of herself in a place where no one knows her.
Then her path crosses with Adam’s.
Since he got diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in November, Adam’s stopped going to classes, intent, instead, on perfecting the making of things. Intent on keeping the memory of his mom alive for his little sister.
Adam’s also intent on keeping his diagnosis a secret from his grieving father.
Alone, Adam and Zayneb are playing roles for others, keeping their real thoughts locked away in their journals.
Until a marvel and an oddity occurs…
Marvel: Adam and Zayneb meeting.
Oddity: Adam and Zayneb meeting.”
Hearts Made for Breaking by Jen Klein
“Lark is the queen of breakups. When she ends
things with a boy, there are never any hard feelings. Sometimes he doesn’t even
realize that she broke up with him. And that’s exactly how Lark likes it. What’s the point in
hurting people? Or getting hurt?
Her best friends, Cooper and Katie, think Lark’s dating
pattern is tragic. How can she know what love is if she refuses to take risks?
They dare her to finally have a bad breakup, one that matters. To appease her
friends, Lark selects “Undateable” Ardy Tate as her target. He’s a
mysterious challenge and completely different from any guy she’s ever dated.
Can she win him over? Will she break his heart? Or will the Queen of Breakups
have her heart broken?”
When I Was Summer by J. B. Howard
Sixteen-year-old Nora Wakelin has always felt
like an outsider in her own family. Her parents and older sister love her, but
they don’t understand anything about her: not her passion for music, not her
all-encompassing crush on her bandmate Daniel (who is very much unavailable),
not her recklessness and impulsiveness. Nora has always imagined that her
biological mother might somehow provide the answer as to why she feels like
such an outsider.
Through internet stalking and leaps of logic, Nora identifies
three women living elsewhere in California who seem like they could be her
biological mother. So she sets out to track them each down, one by one, under
the pretense of a statewide tour with her rock band, Blue Miles. Three cities,
three gigs, three possible birth mothers–it sounds so easy.
But once they’re on the road, of course, it’s anything but easy. Nora wants to be with Daniel, she wants to find
her birth mother, she wants to keep her parents happy, she wants the band to
stay together, and she wants to know why she is the way she is. But she won’t
be the first musician to find out that, while you can’t always get what you
want, sometimes you get what you need.”
Hot Dog Girl by Jennifer Dugan
“Elouise (Lou) Parker is determined to have the
absolute best, most impossibly epic summer of her life. There are just a few
things standing in her way:
* She’s landed a job at Magic Castle Playland . . .
as a giant dancing hot dog.
* Her crush, the dreamy Diving Pirate Nick, already
has a girlfriend, who is literally the Princess of the park. But Lou’s never
liked anyone, guy or otherwise, this much before, and now she wants a chance at
her own happily ever after.
* Her best friend, Seeley, the carousel operator,
who’s always been up for anything, suddenly isn’t when it comes to Lou’s quest
to set her up with the perfect girl or Lou’s scheme to get close to Nick.
* And it turns out that this will be their last
summer at Magic Castle Playland–ever–unless she can find a way to stop it
from closing.”
