The Plan for Darkness never rests. It sees through the electronic darkness of the electromagnetic pulses and the Infection’s Revenge Plague delivered by a terrorist army to bring powerful nations around the world to their knees. Within days, everything that has ever been produced for consumers has been hoarded, spoiled, traded, stolen, or eaten. Drug-dependent people watch their life-saving medications dwindle, fearing the future. They understand that their destiny will be like those lurking behind the other side of a locked door. The dead rise while the living struggle in a world that’s devoid of modern conveniences. The enemy refuses to die, let alone stay dead. Survivors struggle against their fears of the unimaginable, the unknown, the breakdown of civilization, and time. The Plan for Darkness follows Tess, a brave young woman determined to survive; Sani, a young man hoping to keep his family safe; Ratner, a man faced with horrors beyond his imagining; and Jimmy, an old man who finds a new lease on life as he fights for those around him. Together, these allies fight against a menace unleashed on the globe, but can they survive the terrible fallout?

A Michael L. Printz Honor Book "This is East Texas, and there's lines. Lines you cross, lines you don't cross. That clear?" New London, Texas. 1937. Naomi Vargas and Wash Fuller know about the lines in East Texas as well as anyone. They know the signs that mark them. They know the people who enforce them. But sometimes the attraction between two people is so powerful it breaks through even the most entrenched color lines. And the consequences can be explosive. Ashley Hope Pérez takes the facts of the 1937 New London school explosion—the worst school disaster in American history—as a backdrop for a riveting novel about segregation, love, family, and the forces that destroy people. "[This] layered tale of color lines, love and struggle in an East Texas oil town is a pit-in-the-stomach family drama that goes down like it should, with pain and fascination, like a mix of sugary medicine and artisanal moonshine."—The New York Times Book Review "Pérez deftly weaves [an] unflinchingly intense narrative....A powerful, layered tale of forbidden love in times of unrelenting racism."―starred, Kirkus Reviews "This book presents a range of human nature, from kindness and love to acts of racial and sexual violence. The work resonates with fear, hope, love, and the importance of memory....Set against the backdrop of an actual historical event, Pérez...gives voice to many long-omitted facets of U.S. history."―starred, School Library Journal

A boy on the run. A girl determined to find him. A compelling fantasy looks at issues of privilege, protest, and justice. All light in Chattana is created by one man — the Governor, who appeared after the Great Fire to bring peace and order to the city. For Pong, who was born in Namwon Prison, the magical lights represent freedom, and he dreams of the day he will be able to walk among them. But when Pong escapes from prison, he realizes that the world outside is no fairer than the one behind bars. The wealthy dine and dance under bright orb light, while the poor toil away in darkness. Worst of all, Pong’s prison tattoo marks him as a fugitive who can never be truly free. Nok, the prison warden’s perfect daughter, is bent on tracking Pong down and restoring her family’s good name. But as Nok hunts Pong through the alleys and canals of Chattana, she uncovers secrets that make her question the truths she has always held dear. Set in a Thai-inspired fantasy world, Christina Soontornvat’s twist on Victor Hugo’s Les Misérables is a dazzling, fast-paced adventure that explores the difference between law and justice — and asks whether one child can shine a light in the dark.

Are you still looking for that seemingly elusive diet that will make you lose weight but still allow you to enjoy the food that you like best? If you want to find out about a diet that not only allows you but even insists that you eat something that most people regard as indulgent, decadent, and heavenly, keep on reading! If you are like most people, you probably equate going on a diet with suffering, giving up food that you enjoy eating, and having to practice white-knuckled willpower. You probably associate it with going hungry and forcing yourself not to indulge in food that gives you comfort and pleasure. Most people see food not only as fuel but also as a source of satisfaction, comfort, and enjoyment. It is difficult to deprive yourself of good food; it takes immense, extraordinary willpower that most people don’t have. It comes as no surprise, then, that 40% of people who diet give up during the first week! Many diets are just too difficult to sustain. They are too drastic or too strict. They expect you to make extreme and immediate changes in the way you eat. They have a lot of constrictions that lead not only to hunger pangs but to headaches, irritability, fatigue (both physical and emotional), and feelings of resentment and deprivation. They make you feel so constrained and helpless that you end up going on food binges and abandoning your diet. This Dark Chocolate Diet Plan is unlike many diets in so many points. Read the book and discover the following: You CAN eat scrumptious dark chocolate – oh, yes, you CAN! Why dark chocolate is an essential part of this diet. How to enjoy and savor good food, including dark chocolate! How to feel that you are in control of food. You have the option (and the ability) to make food choices that are both pleasurable and healthy. There is NO need to go hungry. There is NO need to feel deprived. How eating “nutritious” food can feel great. You don’t have to rush and feel stressed about making changes in what you eat. Why making stark and radical changes in your diet don’t work. Why it is better to embrace SMALL changes.

In The Dark Forest, Earth is reeling from the revelation of a coming alien invasion-in just four centuries' time. The aliens' human collaborators may have been defeated, but the presence of the sophons, the subatomic particles that allow Trisolaris instant access to all human information, means that Earth's defense plans are totally exposed to the enemy. Only the human mind remains a secret. This is the motivation for the Wallfacer Project, a daring plan that grants four men enormous resources to design secret strategies, hidden through deceit and misdirection from Earth and Trisolaris alike. Three of the Wallfacers are influential statesmen and scientists, but the fourth is a total unknown. Luo Ji, an unambitious Chinese astronomer and sociologist, is baffled by his new status. All he knows is that he's the one Wallfacer that Trisolaris wants dead.
