Rachel Cohn Libri

Manhattan, sabato sera, un locale punk. Nick, che ha appena finito di suonare con il suo gruppo, chiede a una sconosciuta di essere la sua ragazza per cinque minuti. Le chiede solo cinque minuti e un bacio. Quanto basta per farsi vedere dalla sua ex che incede sicura nel locale con il nuovo ragazzo. Ma anche quanto basta per precipitare con Norah in una notte lunghissima. Vagando in una New York piovosa e sfavillante di luci, tra tassisti scontrosi, buttafuori vestiti da coniglietta, ingombranti ex fidanzati, un giubbotto che si chiama Salvatore e una vecchia auto di nome Jessie, Nick e Norah vivranno una notte indimenticabile, al ritmo di una colonna sonora fatta di clacson, cellulari squillanti e canzoni: pezzi rock urlati nei locali, testi appassionati scritti sui marciapiedi, canzoni amate e canzoni odiate, in una playlist all'ultimo respiro.

Naomi e Ely sono amici da quando andavano all'asilo, e sono così legati che niente e nessuno potrebbe minacciare l'inossidabile "N. & E. Istitution". Niente o quasi: per questo hanno deciso di stendere una lista con le cose da non fare MAI per proteggere la loro amicizia, resistita alle peggiori calamità, tra le quali l'appartenenza a due universi lontani come quello maschile e femminile. Ma Ely è gay, e il prezioso vademecum consiste in un elenco di ragazzi da non abbordare nemmeno in caso di estinzione del genere umano: la Lista degli Imbaciabili®. Non a caso, è proprio contro il più intoccabile della lista che il patto si infrange: il ragazzo di Naomi. È la tragedia, e Naomi decide di non rivolgere più la parola al suo migliore amico. Ma non per la ragione più ovvia. Perché c'è una cosa che Naomi non vuole ammettere: ad andare in frantumi non è stata la sua fiducia, ma l'inconfessabile speranza che un giorno Ely si innamori di lei.

"I have promised to be a model citizen daughter....I have confined my Shrimp time to making out with him in the Java the Hut supply closet and quick feels on the cold hard sand at the beach during our breaks, but enough is enough....Delia and I are planning a party at Wallace and Shrimp's house and I am spending the night whether Sid and Nancy notice or not. I will be as wild as I wanna be." After being kicked out of a fancy New England boarding school, Cyd Charisse is back home in San Francisco with her parents, Sid and Nancy, in a household that drives her crazy. Lucky for Cyd, she's always had Gingerbread, her childhood rag doll and confidante. After Cyd tests her parents' permissiveness, she is grounded in Alcatraz (as Cyd calls her room) and forbidden to see Shrimp, her surfer boyfriend. But when her incarceration proves too painful for the whole family, Cyd's parents decide to send her to New York to meet her biological father and his family, whom Cyd has always longed to know.
