Sarah “Nerdy” Littman is your typical high school nerd—geeky glasses, straight A’s, the works. Her only social life consists solely of hanging out at the cafeteria with her best friend Becky Tyrone, as she tries to avoid being bullied by her arch nemesis Matt Adams. When superstar Leon Walden transfers to their school pretending to be just another regular student, Sarah’s life completely turned upsidedown, much to her chagrin. Things get even more complicated when Leon moves in next door and deliberately befriends her. And when Sarah finds herself falling for the teen star, she learns that there is no mathematical equation or scientific formula that can help her sort out her feelings.

With a foreword by Jennifer Baumgardner and Amy Richards Girls Rock! explores the many ways women have defined themselves as rock musicians in an industry once dominated and controlled by men. Integrating history, feminist analysis, and developmental theory, the authors describe how and why women have become rock musicians—what inspires them to play and perform, how they write, what their music means to them, and what they hope their music means to listeners. As these musicians tell their stories, topics emerge that illuminate broader trends in rock's history. From Wanda Jackson's revolutionary act of picking up a guitar to the current success of independent artists such as Ani DiFranco, Girls Rock! examines the shared threads of these performers' lives and the evolution of women's roles in rock music since its beginnings in the 1950s. This provocative investigation of women in rock is based on numerous interviews with a broad spectrum of women performers—those who have achieved fame and those just starting bands, those playing at local coffeehouses and those selling out huge arenas. Girls Rock! celebrates what female musicians have to teach about their experiences as women, artists, and rock musicians.

The recipe for changing a life is simple; it is rarely easy. For myself, it seemed a slow trudge to nowhere. The main ingredient was the getting up each morning and putting one foot before the other; like a broken record, I got sick of it. I did it anyway.

It is 2037, and the Darkness and its army have invaded the world of Rylaxon and its six moons. The Vampeer population subjugates humanity, feeding on the helpless population and turning unwilling citizens into soldiers. Ten-year-old Biron Coomra, a child created by a biophysicist from Rylaxon and a powerful witch from a distant alien world planet called Earth, is living on Eda, the still-peaceful fifth moon. Although he has lost his magical abilities, he still has numerous gifts that make him a formidable enemy of evil--and he is connected to the Triune, a powerful deity who sometimes speaks through him. Biron and his friends--the Warriors of Eda--are summoned to save a select group, the Chosen, and bring them to this safe haven. Meanwhile, Gorgos, the leader of the Vampeer forces and Birons archnemesis, leads his troops to destroy Birons birth city and force a showdown, and the queen of a race of inhuman hunters, the Vorax, has her sights set on the boy as well. The warriors must rescue the Chosen and raise an army before time runs out. In this novel, the third in a series, a boy with unique powers faces enemies on multiple fronts as he and his friends seek to bring the chosen to Eda and protect their world from Darkness.

Looking for Trouble? Hair like smoke? Eyes that cut like steel? Chaos embodied? Stay away from her! She is Death! STORM, an unorthodox orphan from a backwater town, has always been regarded as one thing, and one thing only: TROUBLE! Storm wants nothing more than to free herself from the walls she’s trapped in and find a place she can truly call “home.” However, when push comes to shove, she must decide if solitude is a good price for her freedom, and if a “home,” whatever it may be, is worth suffering for.
