Sinopse

In a small Soviet town, ninth-grader Seva Temkin finds solace in his friendship with Zhenya Smirnov. Gradually, he realizes his feelings for Zhenya have become complicated. Grappling with hidden emotions and societal norms, Seva withdraws into his art, straining the boys' bond. Just as they prepare to confront their truths, an unexpected event forces Seva to retreat, leaving their relationship uncertain.
 
Seva rebuilds his life with the help of a classmate and distracts himself with a new romance with Alina Denikina. Meanwhile, Zhenya realizes the depth of their friendship, but their hidden desires face obstacles due to Seva dating Alina. Months later, a scandal threatens to expose the boys' feelings, which would have tragic consequences.
 
Polina Krymskaya's "Forbidden Rock and Roll" is a poignant coming-of-age tale set in a repressive society, exploring love, friendship, and the resilience of youth. It delves into the transformative power of acceptance and the price individuals pay for embracing their true selves in the face of adversity.

    From the multi-award-winning, bestselling author of Broken Beyond Repair comes a new sapphic celebrity ice queen romance — a standalone novel and the third and final instalment in the South Downs Romance series. 
    Gillian Carmichael is grieving, not for the loss of her husband, but for what his death has cost her — Kingsford Manor, her beloved home. To make matters worse, she can observe the new 'Lady of the Manor' from her small abode in Kingsford Lodge, and observe her, she does. 
    Viola Berkley, an internationally renowned classical singer, retreats to the quiet of the countryside after her mother’s sudden death, seeking peace and anonymity. What she finds is an unwelcome adversary in her outspoken neighbour Gillian Carmichael, who is quick to critique Viola's suitability for her new role and her lack of village sensibilities. 
    As their worlds collide, both women realise they have more in common than divides them, and the line between animosity and attraction begins to blur. With Gillian shackled to her past, unable to let go of the life she lost, and Viola carrying the weight of her grief, can the pair find a path forward, or will the shadows of the past keep them apart?

    From Allyson McOuat, author of the popular 2020 New York Times Modern Love essay "The Ghost Was the Least of Our Problems," comes her debut essay collection 
     
     
     
    In a series of intimate and humorous dispatches, McOuat examines her identity as a queer woman, and as a mother, through the lens of the pop culture moments in the '80s and '90s that molded her identity. McOuat stirs the ingredients required to conjure an unsettled spirit: the horrors of pregnancy and motherhood, love and loss, the supernatural, kaleidoscopic sexuality, near-miss experiences, and the unexplained moments in life that leave you haunted. 
     
     
     
    Through her own life experiences, various tall tales, urban legends, analysis of horror and thriller films, and spine-chilling true crime incidents, McOuat uncovers how cultural gatekeeping has forced her, as a mother and queer femme woman, to persistently question her own reality. Through this charming and humorous exploration of what moments have made her who she is, McOuat demonstrates for listeners a way through by forgiving herself and exorcising her stubborn attachment to a phantom, heteronormative, nuclear family structure.

    Moving to the sleepy town of Havens Hallow, Massachusetts, during my senior year hadn't been part of my future plans. Not to mention the ancient house my father bought sits next to the creepiest place imaginable—a graveyard full of battered stone statues. It's a far cry from the upper-middle class neighborhood we left behind. 
     
     
     
    That wasn't the only thing I had to walk away from. My position as the star quarterback of my old team has now been replaced with a not-so-cozy spot on the sideline. With a football scholarship on the line, I can't afford to be benched. But my grades are in the trash and my mood is buried somewhere beneath the soil of my new personal nightmare. 
     
     
     
    I need help, and fast. August Sanders, a classmate in my new school, volunteers to tutor me. As much as my bruised ego hates it, I can't turn down the offer. 
     
     
     
    However, he forgot to mention a pretty important detail that sends shivers through every cell in my body. 
     
     
     
    August isn't a student. Not anymore. He's not even made of flesh and bone. And apparently I'm the only person who's been able to see him in more than three years.
