        The Heaviness

        by Sam Hawksmoor

        The Heaviness is the final volume in The Repossession Trilogy and the Genie Magee story. It’s been a year since Rian, Renée and Genie survived ‘The Hunting’ burned down Whistler, fled Cobble Hill and the evil Reverend Schneider. Now they’re back with Marshall and the safety of the Apple Farm. However rest assured Schneider hasn’t forgotten Genie Magee.  Rian has been forced to live at home.  He can only see Genie on weekends, but Genie is fine with that, at least she knows he still loves her, as she does him.  She's happy being back on the farm with Moucher, learning new skills and taking care of Marshall - who is tinkering in the new barn - trying to replicate Cary's anti-gravity experiment. So far without any success.  Ri has made Genie study and together they took their SAT’s, Rian getting offers for College places.  But the more they talk about college, the more Genie worries whether their teen romance can survive?  Once Rian gets to where he wants to study he’ll be distracted by other girls. As her Grandma once said: ‘Love is like smoke, the scent of it lingers long after the fire is out.’   All this is about to change – radically. Did you think Genie and Ri could be left alone forever? 

Cary died experimenting with anti-gravity.  
Someone somewhere wants that data urgently and is prepared to do something very desperate to get it.  
Somewhere in the city, a meaner, vengeful Reverend Schneider is thinking of revenge.  
Genie is about to wake up to a whole lot of trouble and discover that some people will do anything to get what they want.  It won’t be nice or pretty. What do you do when you break the law of gravity? Genie and Renée have just 36 hours to save Rian or he dies.

        We Saved the Best for You

        Letters of Hope, Imagination and Wisdom for 21st Century Educators

        by Kress, T. M.

        As standardization and “accountability” have continued to increase in the 21st century, educators and scholars of education have become increasingly frustrated. Yet as frustrated as we are, it is essential that we not send to our our students, children, grandchildren the message that the past was better and they “should have been there.” Instead, we must render a clear vision of what can be. Indeed, where would we be without the vision we have been freely given to us from great scholars, philosophers, and artists, as well as our own teachers, friends, neighbors, and family? We are indebted to carry forward the legacy of these torchbearers to present and future educators. This book is a collection of letters to 21st century educators of all age levels and content areas. It includes chapters from more than 50 contributors representing leading names in the field of education, emerging scholars of education, and gifted practitioners in schools. It has been compiled with the goal of fulfilling our responsibility to share with the next generation of educators our vision of the future, just as our predecessors and role models shared theirs with us. Informed by the past but oriented toward the future, this collection aims to inspire in present and future educators hope, wisdom and imagination for addressing the educational challenges shaped by bureaucratic, economic and cultural forces. Authors such as Nel Noddings, Sonia Nieto, Sandy Grande, Riane Eisler, Mike Rose, William Schubert, William Reynolds, and many more speak directly to their readers, building a relationship with a scholarly backbone, and encouraging: “we saved the best for you” because “the best” is the world you will create.

        That One Night

        Novel

        by Arunika Senarath

        Love at first sight: Amina and Sten run into each other in Dresden. After a romantic dinner in a back room of the Semper Opera House, they see each other more often. But something stands between them. Not only Amina's past, but also Sten's racism. Against the backdrop of Dresden's Elbe Baroque, the pretty Amina falls in love with Sten with the ice-blue eyes. But do they really fit together? Because he belongs to a racist movement, and she hates prejudices. She also carries a heavy package of a bad party night during her school days, in which he seems to be somehow involved.In her debut novel, the young author Arunika Senarath creates a contemporary staff of young people who study, love, argue, celebrate between Neustadt and the Frauenkirche. And who is not unaffected by the political jolt to the right. With a sample translation into English of the first chapters.
