    Eighteen-year-old hockey prodigy Elliot Wexler has three goals for senior year. One: somehow graduate with a 3.5 GPA. Two: hide his bipolar disorder from his peers. And three: make it into the NHL with no scandals. Piece of cake. What he doesn't expect is to find Lucy, a homeless girl, hiding from the winter frost in his dad's shed. Elliot's busy, complicated life doesn't permit room for error, and falling in love with a girl from a totally different world sounds like the opposite of a good idea. But Elliot can't help but be drawn to Lucy and her elusive ways--even when she seems to vanish from his life non-stop, each time leaving him with a bigger hole in his heart. But Elliot is determined to break down Lucy's barriers. And when he does, he discovers that her life is more complicated--and dangerous--than he could have imagined. With drafting season approaching, and Elliot's fragile mental health deteriorating, he's forced to face a difficult question: Is first love supposed to hurt so much? *** PLEASE DO NOT ADD THIS STORY TO GOODREADS.

    I didn't plan on falling in love with Harry Styles. Now I have to figure out how to build a life with him. Turns out, "happily ever after" isn't a destination. It's a choice we make every single day. The fairytale ended the moment we said, "I do." Real life began the morning after. There are still sold-out stadiums, flashing cameras, and headlines waiting for us. There are still scars that ache, fears that linger, and days when loving each other feels easier than loving ourselves. But there are quiet mornings, too. Inside jokes. Sunday coffee. New dreams. A home we've built together. We fought so hard to find each other. Now we have to learn how to grow together. Because falling in love was only the beginning. Everything else happens Beyond the Bar.

    When I Became Who I Already Was Madeline has spent most of her life becoming whatever everyone else needed her to be. A dependable daughter. A devoted wife. A present mother. The woman who shows up, keeps the peace, carries the weight, and says I'm fine even when she isn't. Somewhere along the way, the girl who dreamed of writing books, designing clothes, exploring the world, and living without apology disappeared beneath years of criticism, rejection, expectations, and the quiet belief that if Madeline could just be better-smaller, stronger, more useful, less difficult-maybe she would finally be enough. By forty, she barely recognizes the woman staring back at her. Her marriage is breaking her down. Her body hurts. Her world is getting smaller, and the bedroom that once offered a place to rest is slowly becoming a place to hide from her own life. But buried beneath everything Madeline has been taught to believe about herself is the woman she used to know. And little by little, one choice at a time, she begins to find her again. When I Became Who I Already Was is an emotional story of self-discovery, healing, body image, motherhood, broken dreams, and learning that sometimes the most important person you will ever choose is yourself.

    Helena Santos tornou-se especialista em "quase": quase relacionamentos, quase sentimentos, quase permitir que as pessoas se aproximem. É mais fácil assim. Mais fácil do que explicar por que ela estremece ao ouvir certas palavras. Mais fácil do que admitir que, anos depois, ela ainda carrega os pedaços de um amor que a despedaçou. Então, John Logan invade sua vida cuidadosamente estruturada com seu sorriso fácil e sua gentileza incansável. O que deveria ser apenas uma diversão passageira torna-se perigoso. Porque Logan a faz rir. Faz com que ela se sinta segura. Desperta nela o desejo. E desejar sempre foi o primeiro passo o sofrimento. Dividida entre o conforto de fugir e o pavor de ficar, Helena precisa decidir se está disposta a arriscar o coração em um rapaz que insiste em convidá-la para dançar, justamente quando ela passou anos apenas escutando à música tocar.

    This book did not start as a book. It started as simple questions I gave my students, the kind of questions that ask someone to pause, look inward, and answer honestly. What came back surprised me. Some answers were funny. Some were tender. Some were the kind of thing you don't expect a teenager to say out loud, but are grateful they did. I've gathered those answers here, gently smoothed into full sentences, but left otherwise as they were given, unnamed, unranked, all equally worth reading. If you are a student who once felt unseen, or an adult who has forgotten what it is to be young and afraid and hopeful all at once, I hope something in these pages speaks to you. These are not my words. They are theirs. I only listened, and wrote them down.
