Book excerpt: “What do you do when the fate of something so massive lies in your hands and your hands only? Do you let it pass you by, or do you do something about it?” Don’t believe that there should still be prejudice in 2018? If you’re a young person who wants to make a difference to the world and stand up to bullies in power, then this is the book for you. In an alternate 2018, it’s been almost 45 years since the UK and the USA went to war, and the nations are still bitter enemies. So when two Americans are framed for an assault and meet young British police officer Luke Bright, there’s outrage when a friendship forms between them. Luke’s desperate to help his friends but ends up accidentally shooting another police officer in the process. Barely weeks after turning nineteen, he’s branded a murderer to be thrown into jail when his only crime was wanting peace and equality. This isn’t the adult life he was expecting. How exactly is he meant to bring an end to prejudice between the two most powerful nations in the world when he’s destined to be stuck in jail for life? Can Luke really change the rest of the world when he’s isolated from everyone he knows and no one believes he’s innocent? Atlantic Split is the first of four novels in the Luke Bright series and it recommended for ages 15+.

Americans have built an empire on the idea of “race,” a falsehood that damages us all but falls most heavily on the bodies of black women and men—bodies exploited through slavery and segregation, and, today, threatened, locked up, and murdered out of all proportion. What is it like to inhabit a black body and find a way to live within it? And how can we all honestly reckon with this fraught history and free ourselves from its burden? Between the World and Me is Ta-Nehisi Coates’s attempt to answer these questions in a letter to his adolescent son. Coates shares with his son—and readers—the story of his awakening to the truth about his place in the world through a series of revelatory experiences, from Howard University to Civil War battlefields, from the South Side of Chicago to Paris, from his childhood home to the living rooms of mothers whose children’s lives were taken as American plunder. Beautifully woven from personal narrative, reimagined history, and fresh, emotionally charged reportage, Between the World and Me clearly illuminates the past, bracingly confronts our present, and offers a transcendent vision for a way forward.

Book excerpt: Multiple personality disorder gets a modern makeover in Fay Weldon’s wickedly subversive, hilarious send-up of English traditions and divorce Lady Angelica Rice used to be a teenage rock sensation called Kinky Virgin. She gave it up to marry fat, lazy, near-destitute Sir Edwin Rice—and that’s when Angelica’s “splitting” began: a chorus of four women in her head, each one demanding to be heard. Now, after eleven years—during which she spent all her money restoring Edwin’s crumbling ancestral manse to its former glory—he’s suing her for divorce. He accuses Angelica of making excessive sexual demands, refusing to bear children, taking drugs, and failing to provide proper food for his guests—all of which are lies. But what’s worse is that she still loves him. Egged on by her avenging alter egos—meek Jelly, shattered Lady Rice, sexually insatiable Angel, and practical Angelica—she gets her revenge in this seminal novel about marriage, divorce, and one woman’s liberating leap into free fall.
