YA
A rare but welcome type of YA protagonist, Angel has a healthy libido and no shame about following where it leads. Still, she knows the damage that her fling with her best friend's boyfriend could inflict. This steamy beach book goes a level deeper in its presentation of teens finishing high school and facing choices, some more difficult than others.

YA
Though sisters Rosie and Skate are close in age, they couldn't be more different, especially in their approaches to dealing with their father's alcoholism and incarceration. Rosie believes Dad can change; Skate has given up hope. Over the course of Bauman's quietly riveting novel, the girls' daily lives ebb and flow with a captivating rhythm. Ancillary characters provide a memorable supporting cast.
