Описание:
Beloved author Gary D. Schmidt expertly blends comedy and tragedy in the story of Doug Swieteck, an unhappy "teenage thug" first introduced in The Wednesday Wars, who finds consolation and a sense of possibility in friendship and art.
At once heartbreaking and hopeful, this absorbing novel centers on Doug, 14, who has an abusive father, a bully for a brother, a bad reputation, and shameful secrets to keep. Teachers and police and his relatives think he's worthless, and he believes them, holding others at arm's length. Newly arrived in town, he starts out on the same path--antagonizing other kids, mouthing off to teachers, contemptuous of everything intimidating or unfamiliar. Who would have thought that the public library would turn out to be a refuge and an inspiration, that a snooty librarian might be a friend, or that snarky redheaded Lil would like him--really like him? With more than his share of pain, including the return of his oldest brother from the Vietnam War, shattered and angry, will Doug find anything better than "okay for now"?

Описание: The intensity of two boys' feelings for each other threatens to be overwhelmed by family tensions that rip them apart before their relationship even starts. Mateo's father is overly obsessed with his fifteen-year-old son's baseball achievements to the exclusion of other interests (manga, indie rock music, and Stick--the boy from the "troubled" family down the street, the one with thirteen children of mixed races). Mateo's mother comes from a sprawling Puerto Rican family that provides little privacy and complicated support as Mateo and his father clash over a baseball injury that jeopardizes his season. Down the street, Stick is dealing with the sudden loss of his father and living up to an image he believes his father saw in himself, one that wasn't gay, which drives him to drink and do drugs beyond anything he and Mateo have experimented. They come together and fall apart. Like a mantra, Mateo repeats the words from one of the band's songs whenever he gets hurt or afraid: I WILL BE OKAY. Unfortunately, it doesn't always work.

Описание: Kirsten Jabard is a powerful and shrewd businesswoman. She's smart, beautiful, classy, independent, God-fearing and very single. Her career is going great and her life is good. She's not the least bit interested in or marriage. That is, until she comes in contact with Mr. Jason B. Glaznyte, a rich, intelligent, and "super fine" business owner. Jason is everything Kirsten ever wanted in a man. Their relationship becomes magnetic and wildly addictive, but also extremely deceptive. Kirsten thinks they have something special, but soon discovers that the man she's in love with is only a fa ade. As lies and secret skeletons break down Jason's closet door, the wonderful romance they're caught up in falls apart right before Kirsten's eyes. Jason's web of deceit was so magnificent that Kirsten never realized she was caught in it, and now she's not even sure if she wants to be free. Jason is well aware of the power he has over Kirsten's heart, so getting rid of him will not be an easy task. Kirsten makes sensible business decisions every day, but when it comes to Jason, she's a total fool; all common sense goes right out the window. She wonders, "How could this happen to me? How did I not see this coming?" A talk with her mother is the one thing that can possibly help get Kirsten's head back on her shoulders, but will Kirsten discover that she was the one who deceived herself, and maybe, just maybe, Jason was a fool as well? Will Kirsten forgive Jason and give him another chance or does there come a point when love doesn't get any more second chances? ******************OVERVIEW************* This book mixes humor with everyday situations to reveal how easily anyone, (male or female) can become entrapped in an unhealthy relationship, regardless of their status, good looks, or their intellect. It depicts the common struggles and temptations people face, especially when trying to live a pure and holy life before God. This book is not about the vulnerability of falling in love, but the joy and peace that comes when a person discovers what genuine, true, and healthy love is. **************************************
