Book Description
Perfect for fans of Becky Albertalli's Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda and A. S. King's Still Life with Tornado, this story of parallel time lines cleverly explores how our choices can change and shape us--as well as the ways in which choices don't change the core of our being at all. When Chris Schweitzer takes a hit of whippets and passes out face first on the cement, his nose isn't the only thing that changes forever. Instead of staying home with his friends for the last summer after high school, he's shipped off to live with his famous physicist but royal jerk of a father to prove he can "play by the rules" before Dad will pay for college. Or . . . not. In an alternate time line, Chris's parents remain blissfully ignorant about the accident, and life at home goes back to normal--until it doesn't. A new spark between his two best (straight) friends quickly turns Chris into a (gay) third wheel, and even worse, the truth about the whippets incident starts to unravel. As his summer explodes into a million messy pieces, Chris wonders how else things might have gone. Is it possible to be jealous of another version of yourself in an alternate reality that doesn't even exist? With musings on fate, religion, parallel universes, and the best way to eat a cinnamon roll, Me Myself & Him examines how what we consider to be true is really just one part of the much (much) bigger picture. "Wildly ingenious,...altogether, the novel's a winner in this and any other universe."-Booklist, Starred Review "Tebbetts creates entertaining dual narratives...[and] enjoyable Easter eggs."-Publishers Weekly "An engaging story that examines love, relationships, and the different paths one's life can take...[perfect] for fans of Adam Silvera and Becky Albertalli's What if It's Us, Bill Konigsberg's The Music of What Happens, and Robyn Schneider's The Beginning of Everything."--SLJ

Fight. Sleep. Repeat. That's life for 14-year-old SoCal skate-punk Wylie Masterson. Like most teens, Wylie struggles with authority, puberty, and family. But when you're a transgender male whose body, family, and society insist that you are female, the struggle to break out and live the life you were meant to live becomes a matter of life and death. Born Willow, Wylie wants nothing more than to escape his oppressive SoCal hometown and live the life he was meant to live-as a man, but his overly-religious mother has other plans for her "sweet, lovely daughter."

Book Description
By the time Frank Majewski (pronounced Ma-jes-kee) is twelve years old he has all the makings of a juvenile delinquent. Arrested multiple times, he spends much of his junior high school years behind bars. Then, in 1969, eighteen-year-old Frank is introduced to Jesus Christ and begins a new life. He shares his faith with everyone he meets: drug addicts, bikers, hippies. Soon Frank is preaching to crowds of young people and becomes one of Detroit's most powerful evangelists. Books written on revivals often give the 1970s Jesus Movement a historical "nod." Bring Him to Me goes a step further by transporting readers back in time through a fast-paced, true story of redemption. Following Frank on his journey to renewal, readers will: - Witness the gospel's ability to reach across age, gender, and cultural barriers - Experience renewed hope in the power of the Holy Spirit to change lives - Recognize that in God's eyes there's no such thing as a "lost cause"

Book Description
Putting back the pieces of her life slowly, encouraging people to love unconditionally but never forget to love you first, even when difficult situations arise and it seems almost impossible to deal with. I've learned to deal, feel and heal; deal during these times which have came of most importance. It will sustain you while facing unbearable challenges in ones life, while thinking I would never be able to endure, or get through, suddenly there was a light. Faith and courage will go a long way, until that season is over, and a renewal of one self takes place. I am a sensitive person with a great personality and a need for people; I am sociable, loving, and easy to get along with most of the time. However, I still have feelings when it comes to matters of the heart. Be encouraged and face everything and recover, just as I have, even when the darkest moments shattered my life, and mixed, unclear emotions are running ramped in your mind, and they are all over the place, in many places as well, but going different directions. Ultimately knowing the most difficult journey is about to be defeated with faith, courage and participation. I still have the will to love.
