OMG UR A Teenager

Leslie. E Young

Sinopse

OMG UR a Teenager is a coming-of-age novel for the Me-Too generation. Full of Gen Z angst and humor and heart, it’s a revision of the classic story to highlight personal growth in a more feminist age.

 Poised on the brink of becoming a teenager, Kat Cruz rides waves of excitement and worry. Life’s possibilities are on the horizon: her first bra, perhaps a boyfriend, maybe a job as a journalist. It all seems so close but just out of reach, until her family moves to a ramshackle fixer-upper and Kat meets the neighbor’s son, Will Morris. Despite the sad state of the house and a rash of burglaries in the area, one look into Will’s golden-brown eyes makes Kat think that perhaps the move won’t be so bad.
  
Kat relies on her best friend Jen to help her navigate their new adolescent world, including surviving her little brother Max’s superhero antics and catching Will’s attention. Kat’s parents are distracted by their floundering gym business and her grandmother’s advancing Alzheimer’s, leaving Kat to fend for herself against school bully Maria. Then Kat’s editorials in the school paper offend Will’s mother. Worse, her dance at the school talent show shocks her, and she turns her frosty back on the entire Cruz family. With life unraveling at the seams, Kat must grow more quickly than expected—and in more ways than simply filling out a bra.

Francis Asbury - Circuit Rider

Janet Benge, Geoff Benge

Written for readers age 10 and up -- enjoyed by adults!"Frank felt his heart beat fast. At that moment he was certain God was calling him, asking him to give up his ties to his homeland and set out across the Atlantic Ocean. He did not hesitate to stand when John Wesley asked preachers to walk forward if they felt God was calling them to the American colonies."One of the first Methodist bishops in America, English-born Francis Asbury devoted his life to ministry, traveling on horseback to preach and teach to those living on the vastly isolated American frontier. Alone in a new country, with no home of his own, Asbury rode over 300,000 miles -- across rivers and through rocky, overgrown roads -- shining God’s light on the fledgling colonies.When many Methodist clergy left America during the Revolutionary War, Asbury stayed. His tireless leadership saw the movement grow from 5,000 members in 1776 to 214,000 at the time of his death, fulfilling the great destiny of his call and inspiring future generations.

Celestial Threads Spun from...

Hoang Nguyen

Among the celestial looms of Astralis, where fate weavers spin threads from starfire and comet riders streak trails of destiny, weaver Astra entangles her loom with rider Orion, whose cosmic path defies the woven order. Their binding, spun in starfire vows, entwines fates—or unravels the celestial tapestry into chaotic voids. As they traverse star-woven nebulae and comet-chased orbits, pursued by fate unravelers and stellar guardians, Astra's threading magic fuses with Orion's streaking velocity, revealing a celestial myth of bound trails. When a snapped thread summons black hole whispers, they must respin the stars to secure the entanglement. In the weave of starfire threads, where every yarn pulses with possibility and every trail leads to infinity, their love becomes the fate that orbits eternal harmony.
