    Bittersweet, funny, and achingly honest, Five Summers is a story of friendship, love, and growing up that is perfect for fans of Ann Brashare's The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and Judy Blume's Summer Sisters. Four best friends, five summers of camp memories. Emma, Skylar, Jo, and Maddie have all come back to camp for a weekend of tipsy canoe trips to the island, midnight skinny-dipping in the lake, and an epic game of capture the flag - boys versus girls. But the weekend isn't quite as sunwashed as they'd imagined as the memories come flooding back. The summer we were nine: Emma was branded "Skylar's friend Emma" by the infamous Adam Loring. The summer we were 10: Maddie realized she was too far into her lies to think about telling the truth. The summer we were 11: Johanna totally freaked out during her first game of spin the bottle. The summer we were 12: Skylar's love letters from her boyfriend back home were exciting to all of us - except Skylar. Our last summer together: Emma and Adam almost kissed. Jo found out Maddie's secret. Skylar did something unthinkable...and whether we knew it then or not, five summers of friendship began to fall apart. A young adult book with a friendship story that will last long after the last s'more is gone. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Abigail Revasch.

    It is their last evening together. Maya, Sandra, and Derek, graduate students at UC Santa Cruz and housemates for three years, prepare to sit down at the tortoise listening table for dinner with Uncle Prithvi, the house-owner. It’s a cheerful and quirky household: Sandra is prone to "Orkut attacks"; Derek silently pines for the wistful-looking Afghan boy in the photo on his wall, taken while a war journalist in Afghanistan; Maya, who has the hots for Derek, is inexplicably terrified of the ocean; elusive Uncle Prithvi communicates through notes he leaves all over the place. Sad at parting, perhaps forever, and half tipsy, they play a game of telling stories - their own stories. As the evening deepens, unexpected secrets and fears of the four lives are unveiled. Sandra, abandoned at birth, tells of growing up in an orphanage with her precious twin, disabled Solana, only to be separated by circumstances; Uncle Prithvi rues the loss of his beloved daughter, whom he betrayed when he sought a new life with Karen in the US. And, Maya and Derek, who suddenly absents himself, cannot bring themselves to voice their tragedies - except in a soliloquy. Mysterious and compelling, Table for Four is a rumination in miniature ivory of the burden of secrets and the pain of remembering and accepting the betrayals, loss, and tragedies of our lives. ungekürzt.

    Once again, the depths of the criminal mind and the darkest side of a glittering city fuel number-one New York Times best-selling author Jonathan Kellerman's brilliant storytelling. And no one conducts a more harrowing and suspenseful manhunt than the modern Sherlock Holmes of the psyche, Dr. Alex Delaware. A tipsy young woman seeking aid on a desolate highway disappears into the inky black night. A retired schoolteacher is stabbed to death in broad daylight. Two women are butchered after closing time in a small-town beauty parlor. These and other bizarre acts of cruelty and psychopathology are linked only by the killer's use of luxury vehicles and a baffling lack of motive. The ultimate whodunits, these crimes demand the attention of LAPD detective Milo Sturgis and his collaborator on the crime beat, psychologist Alex Delaware. What begins with a solitary bloodstain in a stolen sedan quickly spirals outward in odd and unexpected directions, leading Delaware and Sturgis from the well-heeled center of L.A. society to its desperate edges; across the paths of commodities brokers and transvestite hookers; and as far away as New York City, where the search thaws out a long-cold case and exposes a grotesque homicidal crusade. The killer proves to be a fleeting shape-shifter, defying identification, leaving behind dazed witnesses and death - and compelling Alex and Milo to confront the true face of murderous madness.

    I first met the ridiculously handsome Danny Diamond at a party some 15 years ago. He had brilliant blue eyes, a sexy smirk, and a muscular body. We had a crazy, instant connection. So, I did what I had to do - threw myself in his direction and kissed him. And that kiss...was like a freaking fairy tale. At least it was until he stopped it because he was married. In my tipsy state, I replied with something cheesy like, "Don't promise me forever, just promise me tonight." And after a kiss like that, who could blame me? Clearly, I wasn't thinking straight because I would never sleep with a married man. But in that moment, I kind of wanted to. I thought maybe we could be friends instead, but he couldn't. He was a hotshot rookie quarterback with a wife and a new baby. He was living his dream. Right now, my life is not perfect. Sure, I'm an award-winning actress, and everyone thinks I've got this glamorous celebrity life - that is, until my longtime boyfriend is caught on video in an Amsterdam brothel, and our love becomes tabloid fodder. And that brings me to where I am now - hiding out from the paparazzi and staring at a shirtless, sweaty Danny, who is drinking milk from a carton at his neighbor's house. I want to impulsively kiss him again because he looks even better than I remember, but I don't.Because I don’t know that his marriage is over.Or that he feels the same way about me.Or that we might actually have a shot at that forever kind of love.  ungekürzt.

    In the tradition of Sloane Crosley, Mindy Kaling, and Katie Heaney, a hilarious and insightful memoir about one New York City millennial's journey to find herself, her dream career, and true love, all while juggling a truly unique job as the world's only professional bridesmaid. After moving to New York City in her mid-20s to pursue her dream of writing - and not living on the "Upper East Side" of her parents' house anymore - Jen Glantz looked forward to a future of happy hours and Sunday brunches with her besties. What she got instead were a string of phone calls that began with, "Jen, I have something exciting to tell you!" and ended with, "I'd be honored if you would be my bridesmaid." At first she was delighted, but it wasn't long before she realized two things: all of her assets were tied up in bridesmaid dresses, and she herself was no closer to finding The One. She couldn't do much about the second thing (though her mother would beg to differ), but she could about the first. One (slightly tipsy) night, Jen posted an ad on Craigslist advertising her services as a professional bridesmaid. When she woke up the next morning, it had gone viral. What began as a half joke suddenly turned into a lifetime of adventure for Jen - and more insight into the meaning of love than she was getting from OKCupid - as she walked down the aisle at stranger after stranger's wedding. Fresh, funny, and surprisingly sweet, Always a Bridesmaid (for Hire) is an entertaining reminder that even if you don't have everything together, you can still be a total boss - or, at the very least, a BFF to another girl in need. ungekürzt.
