      Sono passati tre anni dall'incidente che ha cambiato per sempre la vita di Mia e Adam e che li ha separati. Solo la musica ha ricucito lo strappo che si è aperto nelle loro esistenze. Mia è un astro nascente della musica classica. Adam è una rockstar, inseguita e acclamata dai fan di tutto il mondo. I loro occhi tornano a incrociarsi per caso una sera a New York, durante un concerto di Mia alla Carnegie Hall. Mia, l'unico volto che Adam abbia mai cercato in quelli delle sue fan, e nei suoi ricordi. La musica fa vibrare il passato, risveglia emozioni perdute, colma i vuoti nel cuore di Adam. Quando le loro dita tornano a sfiorarsi, tutte le inquietudini si placano: l'alba svelerà a entrambi che la promessa che Adam ha fatto a Mia - il suo segreto, la sua vergogna - in realtà è la loro unica salvezza.

      Librarian note: an alternate cover for this edition can be found here . Just listen, Adam says with a voice that sounds like shrapnel. I open my eyes wide now. I sit up as much as I can. And I listen. Stay, he says. Choices. Seventeen-year-old Mia is faced with some tough ones: Stay true to her first love—music—even if it means losing her boyfriend and leaving her family and friends behind? Then one February morning Mia goes for a drive with her family, and in an instant, everything changes. Suddenly, all the choices are gone, except one. And it's the only one that matters. If I Stay is a heartachingly beautiful book about the power of love, the true meaning of family, and the choices we all make.

      Mi rincresce informarvi che mi sono tolta la vita. Era una decisione che meditavo da tempo e di cui mi assumo tutta la responsabilità. So che vi addolorerà, e mi dispiace tanto per questo, ma dovevo porre termine alla mia sofferenza. Voi non c'entrate niente, è stata una mia scelta. Voi non avete nessuna colpa. Questa è la lettera che Cody riceve il giorno in cui Meg, la migliore amica di sempre, si toglie la vita bevendo una bottiglia di candeggina in una squallida stanza di un motel. Cresciute insieme, Meg e Cody erano inseparabili, non esistevano segreti tra loro, o almeno questo era quello che pensava Cody. Quando però va a recuperare le cose dell'amica nella città dove un anno prima si era trasferita per andare al college, scopre che c'è tutta una parte della vita di Meg da cui lei era stata esclusa: i coinquilini, gli amici del college e Ben. Il ragazzo con la chitarra, un sorriso strafottente e tanti, troppi lati oscuri. E poi c'è un file criptato sul computer dell'amica che una volta aperto sconvolgerà Cody: all'improvviso tutto quello che credeva di sapere su Meg sembrerà non avere più senso.

    • Az Ajándékba adlak néhol torokszorító, máshol humoros történetei hagyományos ünnepeket örökítenek meg, de korántsem hagyományos szereplőkkel és helyzetekkel. David Levithan, többek között az Egy másik nap világhírű szerzője, egy eszeveszett karácsonyról ír, amelyben egy srác Mikulásnak öltözve próbálja meglepni barátja kishúgát. A félreértések és bonyodalmak elkerülhetetlenek, de mit szól majd a család, ha kiderül, hogy a Mikulás idén valójában szerelmet vallani jött? Gayle Forman, aki az Itt voltam című regénnyel szerzett több millió rajongót, Sophie és Russell világába enged bepillantást, ahol a kívülállás erény is lehet, és egy apró csoda akár szerelmet is hozhat az iskola falai közé. Noel súlyosan allergiás a diófélékre, Mags majdnem a biztos halálból hozza vissza. Minden évben együtt ünneplik a szilvesztert, de vajon van-e a más a barátságon túl is a számukra?

      Freundinnen fürs Leben Der allererste Roman der Bestsellerautorin von WENN ICH BLEIBE und NUR EIN TAG … UND EIN GANZES JAHR »Wo bringen die mich hin?« »Es ist nur zu deinem Besten, Brit«, sagte mein Dad. Ich wurde in ein kleines muffiges Zimmer geschoben und die Tür hinter mir abgeschlossen. Ich wartete darauf, dass mein Dad begriff, dass er einen schrecklichen Fehler gemacht hatte und mich hier rausholte. Aber das tat er nicht. Brit Hemphill hat niemanden mehr, dem sie vertrauen kann. Ihre Mutter ist verschwunden, und ihr Vater hat wieder geheiratet und sie ins Red-Rock-Internat abgeschoben, eine Einrichtung für Problemkinder. Die Betreuer dort sind grausam. Doch Brits Horror vor den sogenannten Therapiestunden und den erschöpfenden körperlichen Arbeiten ist nichts gegen die Angst vor ihren hinterhältigen Mitschülerinnen, die sich Vorteile erschleichen, indem sie andere denunzieren. Doch als V, Bebe, Martha und Cassie ihr helfen, sich rauszuschleichen, um Jed zu treffen, den Jungen, mit dem sie in einer Band gespielt hat und an den sie nicht aufhören kann zu denken, wächst langsam in ihr die Zuversicht. Es gibt doch Menschen, denen sie vertrauen kann. Menschen, die ihr helfen könnten, Red Rock schließen zu lassen.
