Sinopsis

This is not a book about productivity. It is a book about the room where productivity is supposed to happen. It is about the cold light of a screen in the dark, the geography of dust on a desk, and the high-pitched hum of a power strip that is always on.
 
This is a record of small, quiet failures: the forgotten birthday, the perpetually buffering video, the dead leg from sitting too long in a chair that is about to break. It is an investigation into the static of modern life, the lag between a sound and the event, and the ghosts that live in our digital archives.
 
Told through a series of fragmented, unflinching essays, The Sound of Scrolling is not a guide. It is an embodied confession—a raw, intimate look at the clutter of a life lived in the glow of a blinking cursor, where every memory is interrupted and the only thing that feels real is the waiting.

    The Mortal Immortal by Mary Shelley 
    July 16, 1833.—This is a memorable anniversary for me; on it I complete my three hundred and twenty-third year! 
    The Wandering Jew?—certainly not. More than eighteen centuries have passed over his head. In comparison with him, I am a very young Immortal. 
    Am I, then, immortal? This is a question which I have asked myself, by day and night, for now three hundred and three years, and yet cannot answer it. I detected a grey hair amidst my brown locks this very day—that surely signifies decay. Yet it may have remained concealed there for three hundred years—for some persons have become entirely white-headed before twenty years of age. 
    I will tell my story, and my reader shall judge for me. I will tell my story, and so contrive to pass some few hours of a long eternity, become so wearisome to me. For ever! Can it be? to live for ever! I have heard of enchantments, in which the victims were plunged into a deep sleep, to wake, after a hundred years, as fresh as ever: I have heard of the Seven Sleepers—thus to be immortal would not be so burthensome: but, oh! the weight of never-ending time—the tedious passage of the still-succeeding hours! How happy was the fabled Nourjahad!—But to my task.

    The world is not okay. Now what? 
     
    Ginny Shepard is glad to be in Montana for a month of backcountry camping before she starts high school. The world is on fire. That’s the awful truth. And Ginny would much rather be hiking in the mountains than doing the summer college prep classes her parents think will help her future. Because, the future?  
     
    Who even knows what that is anymore. 
     
    But once Ginny gets to camp, things get complicated fast. She meets her tripmates: five challenging, rebellious, tech-addicted boys. And she finds out TrackFinders is designed for kids who need extra “support.” Instead of feeling free as a bird, Ginny feels trapped … and betrayed. 
     
    As her friendships with her fellow campers deepen on the trail, though, Ginny starts to see new sides of them—and of herself. Maybe out here in the backcountry she’ll actually find what she needs to face the front country again. 
     
    Set in Montana’s sweeping alpine wilderness, this epic adventure captures the tremendous heartbreak of realizing the world isn’t okay at all and shows how that knowledge, and what we choose to do with it, shapes us into who we are.

    In this magical adventure that's perfect for fans of Lisa Yee and Erin Entrada Kelly, star athlete Thea must face her worst fears when two mischievous duwendes, Filipino goblins, threaten to wreak havoc on her life—and destroy her town. 
    Thea gets a chance to begin anew at Pacific Academy. There, she’s a star athlete, someone with friends and popularity.  
    But disaster strikes at Junior Stunt Warrior summer camp with her new friends: Her extremely uncool former best friend, Evan, shows up too, and she discovers that stunt class is the one activity she’s not good at. Actually, it’s something she’s terrified of. It all reminds Thea of the shy, invisible version of herself she’s determined to leave behind.  
    Then, in the midst of building a practice obstacle course, Thea wrecks a tree that a pair of grumpy duwendes—Filipino goblins—call home. She’s shocked that not only are duwendes real, but the two in her backyard want revenge.  
    Now Thea must team up with friends new and old to fend off the duwendes before they destroy her entire neighborhood. But can she pull it off while saving her cool-girl image, too?
