From the author of You Should See Me in a Crown, Leah Johnson delivers a stunning novel about being brave enough to be true to yourself, and learning to find joy even when times are unimaginably dark. Olivia is an expert at falling in love . . . and at being dumped. But after the fallout from her last breakup has left her an outcast at school and at home, she’s determined to turn over a new leaf. A crush-free weekend at Farmland Music and Arts Festival with her best friend is just what she needs to get her mind off the senior year that awaits her. Toni is one week away from starting college, and it’s the last place she wants to be. Unsure about who she wants to become and still reeling in the wake of the loss of her musician-turned-roadie father, she’s heading back to the music festival that changed his life in hopes that following in his footsteps will help her find her own way forward. When the two arrive at Farmland, the last thing they expect is to realize that they’ll need to join forces in order to get what they’re searching for out of the weekend. As they work together, the festival becomes so much more complicated than they bargained for. Olivia and Toni will find that they need each other, and music, more than they ever could have imagined. Packed with irresistible romance and irrepressible heart, bestselling author Leah Johnson delivers a stunning and cinematic story about grief, love, and the remarkable power of music to heal and connect us all.

La méthode Lighty

Primeiro livro young adult a ser escolhido para o clube de leitura da atriz Reese Whiterspoon Uma apaixonante comédia romântica que navega a realidade complexa de uma protagonista negra, pobre e queer “Eu nasci realeza. Tudo o que eu precisava fazer era escolher minha coroa.” Liz Lighty sempre achou que fosse negra, pobre e estranha demais para brilhar em sua pequena cidade rica e obcecada por festas de formatura. Mas tudo bem, porque ela tem um plano: estudar na renomada Pennington College, onde fará parte de sua conhecida orquestra e, eventualmente, se tornará médica. No entanto, quando Liz descobre que não pode mais contar com a ajuda financeira que esperava, seus planos vão por água abaixo – até ela ser lembrada da bolsa de estudos que sua escola oferece para o rei e a rainha da festa de formatura. Não há nada que Liz odeie mais do que ser o centro das atenções. Ela não quer ter sua vida exposta nas redes sociais, lidar com concorrentes do nível Meninas Malvadas e ser obrigada a participar de uma série de eventos humilhantes. Mas ela está disposta a fazer o que for preciso para estudar em Pennington. A única coisa que torna tudo levemente suportável é a nova garota da escola, Mack. Ela é inteligente, engraçada, e tão estranha quanto Liz. Mas Mack também está na disputa pelo título de rainha. Será que se apaixonar pela concorrência impedirá Liz de conseguir a coroa... ou a colocará direto em sua cabeça?

French Brunch at Home

Liz Lighty hatte immer das Gefühl, sie sei zu schwarz, zu arm, zu unbeholfen für die kleine reiche Stadt, in der sie aufwuchs. Also schmiedet sie einen Plan, um nach ihrem Abschluss schnellstmöglich zu verschwinden: Wenn sie als Stipendiatin im berühmten Orchester des Pennington College aufgenommen wird, kann sie dort Medizin studieren. Doch ihr großer Traum droht zu scheitern, und Liz bleibt nur eine Option: Sie muss die jährliche Wahl zur Abschlussballkönigin und damit das üppige Preisgeld gewinnen. Dabei gibt es nichts, was Liz weniger tun möchte, als an diesem überzogenen Wettbewerb teilzunehmen und sich gehässigen Kommentaren auf dem Schulhof und im Netz zu stellen. Die Einzige, die all das erträglich macht, ist Mack, das neue Mädchen an der Schule. Sie ist klug, witzig, chaotisch und verdreht Liz sofort den Kopf. Doch auch Mack ist im Rennen um die Krone. Entscheidet Liz sich für die Liebe und wirft ihre Zukunftspläne über Bord?
