Life always gives us a second chance... Newly widowed novelist Olivia Hammond is at loose ends-until an unexpected discovery resurfaces a long-ago secret about her past. As she embarks on a book tour for her new novel, Livvie reconnects with Robert Yardley, her first love. During a road trip to Robert's Southern childhood home, the two dissect their splintered relationship and the life they might have had. 1965, New York City. In an era when women were relegated to the role of office girls, young, ambitious magazine writer Livvie meets legendary photojournalist Robert while covering the Great Northeastern Blackout. Theirs is a globe-spanning, news-chasing romance worthy of Katharine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy. Livvie imagines it lasting forever-but instead, it burns bright and fast, for reasons she's never entirely sure of, and irrevocably alters the course of her future. Alternating between the past and the present, September Girl is about a changing era, about the reasons we keep secrets, and about whether the life we would have chosen is ever the life we were meant to lead. Includes a reading group guide and book club discussion questions. "Choices. Consequences. And the most selfish of secrets. The three most captivating elements of any story. Add in twists, turns, travel and romance, and I loved loved loved September Girl."―Linda Yellin, author of What Nora Knew and The Last Blind Date

September Girls is a stunning coming-of-age novel about first loves, oblivious parents, sibling rivalries—and mermaids. This imaginative and painfully honest book garnered five starred reviews, including one from ALA Booklist that proclaimed it "a rare and lovely novel, deserving of attention from discriminating readers." Whisked away by his father to an unusual beach town in the Outer Banks, Sam finds himself having the summer vacation most guys dream of. He's surrounded by beautiful blonde girls, and, better yet, they all seem inexplicably attracted to him. But there's definitely something strange about the Girls. They only wear flats because heels make their feet bleed. They never go swimming in the water. And they all want something from him. Sam falls for one of the Girls, DeeDee, and begins an unexpected summer romance. But as they get closer, she pulls away without explanation. Sam knows that if he is going to win her back, he'll have to learn the Girls' secret. Bennett Madison, critically acclaimed author of The Blonde of the Joke, brings a mix of lyrical writing, psychologically complex characters, and sardonic humor to this young adult novel. September Girls is perfect for fans of the irreverent wit of Ned Vizzini and the seductive magic of fairy tales retold.

Lambda Literary Award Winner! “Pen is an inspiration to anyone who’s struggled to be understood, and a vital addition to the growing world of genderqueer protagonists.” —New York Times Book Review All Pen wants is to be the kind of girl she’s always been. So why does everyone have a problem with it? They think the way she looks and acts means she’s trying to be a boy—that she should quit trying to be something she’s not. If she dresses like a girl, and does what her folks want, it will show respect. If she takes orders and does what her friend Colby wants, it will show her loyalty. But respect and loyalty, Pen discovers, are empty words. Old-world parents, disintegrating friendships, and strong feelings for other girls drive Pen to see the truth—that in order to be who she truly wants to be, she’ll have to man up. M. E.
