New Books on the Shelf
Hope Nation: YA Authors Share Personal Moments of Inspiration will be shelved in Youth Non-Fiction. We all experience moments when we struggle to understand the state of the world, when we feel powerless and, in some cases, even hopeless. Teens of today are the caretakers of tomorrow, and yet it's difficult for many teens to find joy or comfort in such a turbulent society. But in trying times, words are power. Some of today's most influential young adult authors have come together in this highly personal collection of essays and original stories to offer moments of light in the darkness, and show that hope is a decision we all can make.
Just Friends by Dyan Sheldon, the writer of Confessions of A Teenage Drama Queen and My Worst Best Friend, comes this hugely entertaining teen read about falling for the wrong person. The first time Josh sets eyes on Jena, he's hooked. He can't stop thinking about her, looking for her wherever he is, and hoping to turn a corner and find her there. The problem is she's completely out of his league, as his friends never tire of telling him. Josh decides he will settle on simply being Jena's friend. Still, the more time he spends with her, the more infatuated he becomes, despite the fact Jena only turns to him when she's had a fight with her on-again off-again boyfriend. Finally realizing he can't go on pretending he only wants to be her friend, Josh vows to tell Jena how he feels on Valentine's Day. This witty tale maps the agonizing distance between "like" and "love" and will be found shelved in Teen General.
