New Books on the Shelf
Okay teens, ignite your muscles. Clear your mind. Fuel your body. Total Teen: Tracy Anderson’s Guide to Health, Happiness, and Ruling Your World gives you a solid foundation to lead a balanced life―with absolutely no calorie counting, no fad diets, and no unrealistic workout routines. It’s a body-positive approach to taking care of and honoring your total self. In a world where no selfie gets snapped without a flawless filter, and your Instagram idols could teach classes on how to master angles, lighting, and retouching, it's essential to create a rock-solid relationship with what's real and what's beautiful. Inside this book, you’ll find exercises, activities, and recipes as well as prompts and questions to spark new ways of thinking and new ways of being. You’ll be amazed at how good you can look and feel, and how powerfully you can show up for every aspect of your life. Begin now, and you’ll have a head start that will be with you forever. This book will be found in Youth Non-Fiction.
Here, There, Everywhere written by Julia Durango tells the story of Zeus, a young man who would rather be anywhere than Buffalo Falls, the tiny town his family moved to at the end of the school year. Having left all his friends back in Chicago and with nothing to look forward to except helping out at his mother’s café and biking around town with his weird little brother, Zeus is pretty sure this is destined to be the worst summer of his life. Then he meets Rose who is funny, beautiful, smart, and an incredible musician. Zeus can hardly believe that someone like Rose exists, let alone seems interested in being with him. However, while Zeus is counting down the minutes until he can see her next, Rose is counting down the days until she finds out whether she will be able to leave their small town to pursue her dreams. As the afternoons spent going on local adventures pass into nights discussing their deepest hopes, Zeus knows that he doesn’t have long to convince Rose that what they have is more than a summer fling…if only he’s brave enough to seize the chance. This funny and honest coming of age story about first love will be shelved in Teen Romance.
