As he comes of age in the late 1960s, in a Saudi Arabia wildly conflicted between newfound prosperity and ancient tradition, a young boy is swept up by the call to revolution and tormented by the incompatible demands of personal loyalties. The deceptive tranquillity of his middle-class neighbourhood is the setting for an intense showdown between the boy's love for his family and yearning for social justice. He struggles to make sense of all this turbulence, as he himself awakens to passions both private and political. Adama explores the poles of idealism and disillusionment, amidst the paradoxes of a conservative land where every illicit pleasure is available and ancient traditions co-exist with the apparatus of a powerful and merciless state.

I have found rock bottom. It's here, moving in with my older brother because I'm too broke to afford to live on my own. It's okay though, because we've always been close and I think I'm going to have fun living with him again.That is until I meet Cooper...Turns out, my brother has very strong opinions on the idea of me dating his best friend and is dead set against it. According to him, Cooper is everything I should stay away from: flirtatious, adventurous, non-committal, and freaking hot. (I added that last part because I feel like you need the whole picture.) My brother is right-I should stay away from Cooper James and his pretty blue eyes. He's the opposite of what I need right now.Nah-who am I kidding? I'm going for it.The Off Limits Rule is a closed door romance, perfect for readers who love lots of sizzle but no explicit content.

Launching a propulsive middle grade nonfiction series, a young woman shares her harrowing experience of being wrongly accused of terrorism. Adama Bah grew up in East Harlem after immigrating from Conakry, Guinea, and was deeply connected to her community and the people who lived there. But as a thirteen-year-old after the events of September 11, 2001, she began experiencing discrimination and dehumanization as prejudice toward Muslim people grew. Then, on March 24, 2005, FBI agents arrested Adama and her father. Falsely accused of being a potential suicide bomber, Adama spent weeks in a detention center being questioned under suspicion of terrorism. With sharp and engaging writing, Adama recounts the events surrounding her arrest and its impact on her life—the harassment, humiliation, and persecution she faced for crimes she didn’t commit. Accused brings forward a crucial and unparalleled first-person perspective of American culture post-9/11 and the country’s discrimination against Muslim Americans, and heralds the start of a new series of compelling narrative nonfiction by young people, for young people.
