  This stellar debut by APALA Award–winning author Christina Li about losing and finding family, forging unlikely friendships, and searching for answers to big questions will resonate with fans of Erin Entrada Kelly and Rebecca Stead.  
  The only thing Rosalind Ling Geraghty loves more than watching NASA launches with her dad is building rockets with him. When he dies unexpectedly, all Ro has left of him is an unfinished model rocket they had been working on together. 
  Benjamin Burns doesn’t like science, but he can’t get enough of Spacebound, a popular comic book series. When he finds a sketch that suggests that his dad created the comics, he’s thrilled. Too bad his dad walked out years ago, and Benji has no way to contact him. 
  Though Ro and Benji were only supposed to be science class partners, the pair become unlikely friends, and Ro even figures out a way to reunite Benji and his dad. But Benji hesitates, which infuriates Ro. Doesn’t he realize how much Ro wishes she could be in his place? 
  As the two face bullying, grief, and their own differences, Benji and Ro try to piece together clues to some of the biggest questions in the universe.

  The Smut Revolution - From Taboo...

  There is a reason your pulse quickens when you turn to that one particular scene in a book – the one where tension spills over, where restraint shatters, and where characters surrender to something primal, something undeniable. That moment, the one so many readers secretly crave, is smut. 
  Once whispered about behind closed doors, hidden beneath the guise of “guilty pleasures,” smut has clawed its way into mainstream literature, proving that what was once considered taboo is now a genre in its own right. From centuries-old erotic manuscripts to today’s bestselling scorchers, smut has evolved, adapted, and seduced millions along the way. 
  But why do we read it? Why do we write it? And why does society continue to both embrace and condemn it in equal measure? 
  Each chapter in this book begins with an excerpt – an unfiltered glimpse into the heart of smut – before shifting to the forces that shape it, the way it has been challenged, censored, and celebrated. Some scenes will linger, some may provoke, but all of them exist because smut, at its core, is more than just raw lust – it is a reflection of desire, fantasy, and the ever-changing boundaries of storytelling. 
  So, turn the page. But be warned: once you indulge, there is no going back.

  A moving middle grade debut about foster care, self-advocacy, and realizing that a found family is a real family. 
   
   
   
  It's the first week of middle school, and Ash (don't call her "Ashley") already has a class assignment: Make a family tree. But how can Ash make a family tree if she doesn't have a family? Ever since she was four years old, Ash has been in foster care, living with one so-called family after another. Now she's stuck with Gladys. And the only place Ash feels safe is in the branches of her favorite tree, drawing in her sketchbook, hidden from the view of Gladys's son Jordan. 
   
   
   
  As Jordan becomes harder to hide from, and more dangerous to be around, Ash isn't sure who she can trust. A new friend, an old friend, some teachers at school? Sometimes the hardest part of asking for help is knowing who to ask. 
   
   
   
  In My So-Called Family, Gia Gordon weaves a lyrical story about complicated family dynamics that's perfect for fans of Fish in a Tree and Counting by 7s.
