Happy Camper

Sarah L. Young

Beschreibung

Teenagers drifted out of minivans and sedans, carrying duffel bags full to bursting as they navigated to their assigned cabins. So far, I hadn't seen a single teenager at Camp Geshem who wasn't white, which meant I was going to stand out like a sore Latina thumb.
 
Worse, if this camp was anything like my hometown, I was going to be the only person here who wasn't straight either.
 
A captivating tale of love and identity, set against the backdrop of a Jewish summer camp in 2010. When Reina, an out lesbian, is sent to Camp Geshem for the summer, she anticipates an isolating eight weeks back in the closet - because the camp's policy at the time is to kick out LGBTQ+ campers. But when she meets Talia, a fellow camper with secrets of her own, everything changes. As they navigate the complexities of their identities and the shifting attitudes and expectations of their surroundings, Reina and Talia embark on a journey of self-discovery and acceptance. Amidst the backdrop of camp rituals and the natural beauty of Camp Geshem, they forge a deep connection that challenges their perceptions of themselves and what it means to truly find a place where they belong. Happy Camper is a heartwarming and lively exploration of first love, friendship, and the courage it takes to be true to oneself.

Princess Protection Program #2...

Alex London

What happens when a princess accidentally fractures her fairy tale by fleeing to the real world? Bestselling author Alex London turns classic fairy tales on their heads in this fast-paced, funny fantasy about friendship and facing your fears. For fans of The School for Good and Evil and the Never Afters series.
Princess Rana loves her friends (all fellow fairy tale escapees), loves her school (the HEA, an academy for fairy tale royalty), and loves punk rock (the best music genre). But she does not love frogs . . . especially demanding frog princes who follow her home. Rana fled her story because of one frog prince in particular, and she has no plans of ever going back to that stuffy place full of rules. But then her frog prince shows up at the academy’s gate. And he’s not alone. Dozens of duplicate frog princes have followed him to the real world. Worse still, a shadowy monster is in hot pursuit, one that dissolves fairy tale characters into nothing, erasing their stories. To save everyone she cares about, Rana will have to do the one thing she vowed she'd never to do—return to her Once Upon Time.
Acclaimed and bestselling author Alex London weaves together several beloved fairy tales in this fast-paced, funny, and slyly subversive adventure about figuring out who you want to be. The daring escapes, sinister monsters, familiar friends, and surprise twists will keep even reluctant listeners glued. The Princess Protection Program is for fans of the Never Afters and the Descendants series, The School for Good and Evil, and the Fairly True Tales series.
