The Exact Opposite of Okay
by Laura StevenBitingly funny and shockingly relevant, The Exact Opposite of Okay is a bold, brave, and necessary read for fans of Louise O'Neill and Jennifer Mathieu. Eighteen-year-old Izzy O’Neill knows exactly who she is—a loyal friend, an aspiring comedian, and a person who believes that milk shakes and Reese’s peanut butter cups are major food groups. But after she’s caught in a compromising position with the son of a politician, it seems like everyone around her is eager to give her a new label: slut.Izzy is certain that the whole thing will blow over and she can get back to worrying about how she doesn’t reciprocate her best friend Danny’s feelings for her and wondering how she is ever going to find a way out of their small town. Only it doesn’t. And while she’s used to laughing her way out of any situation, as she finds herself first the center of high school gossip and then in the middle of a national scandal, it's hard even for her to find humor in the situation.Izzy may be determined not to let anyone else define who she is, but that proves easier said than done when it seems like everyone has something to say about her.

The Exeter Blitz
by David ReesIt was the night of May 3-4, 1942, and the Lockwoods were scattered all over Exeter. Colin's mother was at the dress shop where she worked. Mary and her boyfriend Lars were at the cinema. June and Mr. Lockwood were at home. And Colin was in the tower of the city's historic cathedral. Wherever they were, they could hear the sirens start, and they knew what that meant... But this air raid was like no bombing before. Bombs fell like rain, bursting apart houses and shops and streets, followed by incendiary shells. Soon the city was engulfed by a fire storm, and the low-flying planes machine-gunned rescue workers and everyone else. Only the ancient medieval cathedral went relatively unscathed. As morning dawned, bringing the all-clear, the Lock woods emerged, each from the place where he had taken shelter, and looked about, checking to see who had survived. Their house was in ruins, their lives had been changed, but as each face reappeared, they knew that they had much to be thankful for. David Rees here re-creates the feelings and experiences of a family living through a war.
