Aiden Adams, a transgender teen, begins writing in a journal when he moves to a new town named Ashmore and begins “passing." He is counting on everyone to believe that he is the every bit the male he appears to be. Writing in his journal helps him unclog his brain as he writes about the daily struggles he faces as a transgender teenager, his painful past that he is trying to forget, the new friends he is making, and the beautiful girl named Abby whom he has fallen in love with. Aiden has already come out to his open-minded mother, but will Abby be just as understanding? When Aiden loses his journal, he worries that the secret he is trying so desperately to keep will come out. And if it does, how will everyone react? Will Abby be able to cope with everyone knowing that he is transgender? Will his new friends accept Aiden for who he really is—a boy—or will everything fall apart?
All politics are climate politics in the twenty-first century - and this bold book argues for a Green New Deal that confronts both climate change and inequality The age of climate gradualism is over, as unprecedented disasters are exacerbated by inequalities of race and class. We need profound, radical change. A Green New Deal can tackle the climate emergency and rampant inequality at the same time. Cutting carbon emissions while winning immediate gains for the many is the only way to build a movement strong enough to defeat big oil, big business, and the super-rich - starting right now. A Planet to Win explores the political potential and concrete first steps of a Green New Deal. It calls for dismantling the fossil fuel industry and building beautiful landscapes of renewable energy, guaranteeing climate-friendly work and no-carbon housing and free public transit. And it shows how a Green New Deal in the United States can strengthen climate justice movements worldwide. We don't make politics under conditions of our own choosing, and no one would choose this crisis. But crises also present opportunities. We stand on the brink of disaster - but also at the cusp of wondrous, transformative change.

Amy comincia a seguire le lezioni alla Brown University, il college al quale si è iscritta con molto entusiasmo, ignara di quello che avrebbe avuto affrontare. Fino a qualche giorno prima, era decisa a concentrarsi sui libri, ma dopo aver conosciuto Tex Pratt, il ragazzo più bello e maledetto del campus, non può evitare di pensare a lui. Corteggiata insistentemente dal suo amico Will, spinta a partecipare a ogni party delle confraternite dalla sua compagna di stanza Leah, ovunque vada Amy si ritrova faccia a faccia con Tex. Lui la provoca, la stuzzica in continuazione. Il suo passatempo preferito è giocare con le ragazze della Brown, collezionare avventure da una notte. La gelosia inizia a insinuarsi nel cuore di Amy: capisce di essersi presa una cotta spaventosa per Tex, come quasi ogni ragazza del campus, ma sa anche che è una follia perché con uno come Terence Pratt lei soffrirà soltanto. Così accetta di uscire con Will. Ma Tex non è il tipo che rinuncia a quello che vuole e lui vuole Amy Glover. Tra i due amici della confraternita dei Delta Sigma, ha inizio una lotta senza esclusione di colpi, per conquistare la ragazza che in realtà ha già deciso con chi stare. Amy ha paura dell’amore, a causa di quello che ha passato con Austin, il suo ex ragazzo, ma Tex non mollerà finché lei non sarà sua. EVER COMPLETE SERIES (Serie completa in volume unico) EVER 1 AFTER YOU EVER 2 BEFORE YOU EVER 3 AGAIN YOU EVER 4 OVER YOU EVER 5 ALWAYS YOU Tex non è come appare, un bastardo che ama giocare con i sentimenti delle donne. So che non è così, anche se tutti pensano che io sia soltanto un’illusa a credere di essere qualcosa di speciale per lui. Rimaniamo a scrutarci negli occhi, per infiniti attimi. È lui a parlare per primo. «Perché sei uscita con Will Tucker?» «E tu perché sei uscito con quella ragazza?» ribatto, considerando che anche io sono gelosa. Lui lo sa, oramai è inutile mentire a noi stessi. Mi si avvicina, i suoi occhi non mi sono mai sembrati così blu come in questo momento. Vorrei dirgli quello che provo, che soffro e sto male da morire ogni volta che lo vedo con un’altra, ma non ci riesco. Tex lo capisce. In un attimo mi abbraccia, senza darmi il tempo di reagire. Non mi allontano, amo il calore del suo corpo. La sua bocca raggiunge la mia e ci baciamo. È uno di quei baci che soltanto lui sa dare, che mi fanno quasi svenire. Adesso lo so, è Tex l’unico ragazzo con cui potrei stare, e mi maledico per questo, perché non dovrei neppure avvicinarmi a uno come lui. Ma non posso farne a meno. Mi sono persa dentro i suoi occhi blu dalla prima volta che l’ho visto. Tex Pratt è diventato la mia ossessione.
