Everyone at school knows Andrew Jennings. Missing an arm. Openly gay. But when he meets star athlete Ryan Sullivan in therapy, can friendship lead to more? ***** When Andrew 'Jacky' Jennings ends up in therapy after an English assignment gone wrong, he doesn't expect to find his high school's star athlete, Ryan Sullivan, sitting in the same waiting room. After all, he and Ryan couldn't be more different: football captain, future valedictorian, and all-around nice guy, Ryan is the school's golden boy, while Andrew is known for his permanent snarl, being openly gay, and losing his left arm (along with his father and sister) in a car accident. But when Andrew learns they actually have a lot in common, he's surprised to see past the enigma that is Ryan Sullivan and his seemingly perfect life. And as the two boys begin to connect over their shared grief, depression, and teenage angst, they might just discover a little pocket of happiness for themselves -- if they're willing to fight for it.

Carmen has always been sure of herself. As the top student in her class at Princeton, she's used to receiving praise for everything. She's even on track to score the highly esteemed Smith discovery fellowship, an award that'll put her career on the map and get her everything she's ever wanted. She prizes herself on her ability to succeed no matter what, and it isn't until she walks in on her girlfriend cheating on her with her worst enemy that she realizes she's not invincible. Left to pick up the pieces of her shattered heart and confidence, Carmen doesn't quite know what to do about her life or how to respond to Dahlia, her enemy's best friend, who can't stop leaving her alone. Read on to find out how Carmen navigates her senior year of college and finds herself amidst the chaotic status of her life and mind.

Roland Finley hasn't been back to Minnesota since he was four years old. Not since the frozen ponds. Not since the Wilkins family. And definitely not since Simon. Now, at seventeen, Roland is arriving with two duffel bags, a hockey scholarship hanging by a thread, and grief he doesn't know what to do with after losing his mom. His military father wants nothing to do with him anymore, so spending senior year with family friends in a town he barely remembers is Roland's only option. The problem? Simon Wilkins remembers everything. He remembers the gap in Roland's front teeth when they were kids. The way Roland used to fall asleep during movie nights. The promise they made before Roland moved away. And somewhere between shared hockey practices, late-night drives, and a house too full to hide in, Simon realizes something he should've figured out years ago: Roland Finley was never just his best friend. But Roland is already carrying more than anyone can see, and Simon's terrified that if he says the wrong thing, he'll lose him all over again. Some people come back changed. Some people come back home.

LOVE - what a troublesome term. It feels like it has no clear meaning. Is it the same as "liking" someone or something? But even "LIKE" feels like a weaker version of it, another term that doesn't fully capture what it tries to explain. And I'm not even talking about love between two people. That feels even more complicated. I'm talking about love in general. Like when a person says they love drawing. Why? Because it makes them happy. But why? Maybe it's because the body releases certain chemicals or hormones that create feelings of happiness and comfort. But even then... why only that particular thing? Why not something else?? It could be anything... so why that one specific thing? Or that one specific person? There are so many words that feel close to it - attraction, affection, liking, obsession... countless of them. But still, people say "love". And when someone says, "love is fake," then is it really love they are talking about? Or something else entirely? Who could even explain it clearly? Probably not someone who has never truly understood it. Never attached to anything. Never even had a favorite color. Someone who gets bored easily, never focused, never dated anyone, and was never allowed to. A person with zero experience of love.

A 13 year old girl named Livia transfers to a school after her parents died in a car crash, she meets new friends, start a friend group, and Livia gets her first gay panic (actually lesbian) once she sees the new girl, Celine, she was 14 years old, gets mad easily and just transferred. (DISCLAIMER: Sorry for my bad grammar and sorry if I get some spelling wrong, it's my first time writing✌️) STOP READING THIS ITS SO ASS😭😭

Loving someone in silence is both the bravest and the most painful thing you can do. Shin Ryujin has always been good at hiding her feelings-especially the ones she knows she shouldn't have. To everyone else, she's confident, playful, and effortlessly cool. But deep down, Ryujin carries a secret she's never dared to say out loud: she's been in love with Hwang Yeji for years. Yeji is warm, radiant, and impossible not to adore. She laughs easily, cares deeply, and treats Ryujin with a kindness that makes Ryujin's heart ache even more. To Yeji, Ryujin is her closest friend-someone she trusts, someone she relies on, someone she never imagines could love her in that way. As days turn into nights filled with lingering glances, accidental touches, and moments that feel a little too intimate to be just friendship, Ryujin finds herself torn between protecting her heart and risking everything for the truth. Meanwhile, Yeji begins to notice the way Ryujin looks at her when she thinks no one is watching-and starts questioning feelings she never knew she had.

Le collège sentait la pluie, les feuilles mouillées et les cruautés silencieuses. Pendant des années, Ambroise Foster a grandi dans l'ombre des moqueries, du rejet et des regards qui blessaient plus fort que les coups. Et au milieu de ce chaos se trouvait toujours Lyall Graves. Violent. Inaccessible. Le genre de garçon que tout le monde suivait sans réfléchir. Entre eux, tout aurait dû n'être que haine. Pourtant, derrière les affrontements, les silences et les blessures, Ambroise percevait autre chose chez Lyall : une douleur profonde, presque désespérée. Quelque chose qui ressemblait à un appel au secours. Puis le temps les a séparés. Des années plus tard, devenu adulte, Ambroise pense avoir laissé cette époque derrière lui. Jusqu'au soir où le hasard remet Lyall sur sa route, dans un petit café noyé par la pluie. Mais le garçon cruel du collège a disparu. À sa place se tient un homme plus calme, plus silencieux, marqué lui aussi par les années et les regrets. Et malgré les souvenirs qui les hantent encore, une étrange douceur renaît peu à peu entre eux. Comme si deux êtres autrefois brisés essayaient enfin de se rencontrer autrement. Entre culpabilité, pardon et sentiments longtemps étouffés, Ambroise et Lyall devront comprendre une chose essentielle : on ne choisit pas toujours les blessures que l'on porte... mais peut-être peut-on choisir ce que l'on devient après elles.

On a dark summer night, Shannon hears a scream. She's heard screams before. Sometimes they're hers. Usually, the choice is easy: Text the group chat. Gather the pack. Kill the monster. Go home and eat pizza. But this summer, the pack is gone. The strong ones are away. The reckless one is captured. The ones who flinch are all that's left. Them, and the screaming. When Shannon runs toward the noise, she doesn't find a monster. She finds a girl. A girl too beautiful to be real. A girl who speaks without moving her lips. A girl who says she cannot harm anyone-not even the things hunting her. The Impossible Girl. No Marines. No Hounds of Heaven. Just Shannon and the pack's E-Team.
