Pages : 348
Book Description
"Hysterical. I couldn’t put it down.” (Nic Stone) "I laughed, I gasped, I church grunted through every chapter." (Tiffany D. Jackson) "Heartfelt and hilarious on every page!" (Justin A. Reynolds) 4 starred reviews! * An Indie Next List Pick! * Named one of Bank Street College of Education's Best Children’s Books of the Year! Two-time Edgar Award finalist Lamar Giles spotlights the consequences of societal pressure, confronts toxic masculinity, and explores the complexity of what it means to be a “real man.” Del has had a crush on Kiera Westing since kindergarten. And now, during their junior year, she’s finally available. So when Kiera volunteers for an opportunity at their church, Del’s right behind her. Though he quickly realizes he’s inadvertently signed up for a Purity Pledge. His dad thinks his wires are crossed, and his best friend, Qwan, doesn’t believe any girl is worth the long game. But Del’s not about to lose his dream girl, and that’s where fellow pledger Jameer comes in. He can put in the good word. In exchange, Del just has to get answers to the Pledgers’ questions…about sex ed. With other boys circling Kiera like sharks, Del needs to make his move fast. But as he plots and plans, he neglects to ask the most important question: What does Kiera want? He can’t think about that too much, though, because once he gets the girl, it’ll all sort itself out. Right? "With true-to-life characters and a straightforward handling of sex, including often ignored aspects of male sexuality, Giles’s thoughtful, hilarious read offers a timely viewpoint on religion, toxic masculinity, and teen sexuality."

She couldn't think of a time when she wasn't in the system. There had to be some time. People aren't just born and put into a treatment center, right? Sometime in her past, there had to be a point where she was a normal kid, living with some semblance of a normal family, in something resembling a normal house. Hope Bruin isn't the average fourteen-year-old. She's been in foster care all her life, bouncing from home to home, family to family. This means her unanswered questions about herself and her past are infinite. And her questions are only multiplying. With her strange dreams about poisonous green eyes, bony hands veiled by cloaks, and a majestic bear, Hope's attention is often pulled away to a secret world. Just when things start to fall into place for Hope for the first time, her mysterious dreams start to become reality, and she is visited by creatures and spirits who are anything but human. Hope finds out that she is supernaturally connected to one of the beings from her dream, and now she has to become one with a creature she knows little about. What secrets do Hope's strange dreams hold? Would she actually want to know? Will she ever be normal? In Hope Rising, readers will go on a fantastic journey with a very different kind of girl who learns that even the most seemingly unloved people can have larger-than-life destinies.

Pages : 159
Book Description
A Woman Through and Through In a culture that can belittle womanhood on the one hand—making it irrelevant—and glorify it on the other—making it everything—it’s hard to know what it really means to be a woman. But when we understand womanhood through the lens of Scripture, we see that we need a bigger category for what God has called “woman.” This book breathes fresh air into our womanhood, reminding us what life in Christ—as a woman—looks like. When we see that we are women in all we do, we can be at peace with how God has created us, recognizing womanhood as an essential part of Christ’s mission and work.
