The Liars of Mariposa Island

That's when Elena Finney gets to escape her unstable, controlling mother by babysitting for their two children. And the summer of 1986 promises to be extra special when she meets J.C., the new boy in town, whose kisses make Elena feel like she's been transported to a new world.

Moxie
Summary
Mädchen - Lasst euch nicht alles gefallen! Vivian hat die Nase voll. Von den blöden Kommentaren der Jungs während des Unterrichts. Von den Lehrern, die nichts dagegen unternehmen. Von der absurden Kleiderordnung, die nur für Mädchen zu gelten scheint. Aber vor allem hat Vivian es satt, den Mund zu halten. Angeregt durch einen alten Flyer ihrer Mutter, früher ein Punkrock-Riot-Grrrl, beschließt sie, etwas gegen die Ungerechtigkeit zu tun. Heimlich gestaltet sie ihren eigenen Flyer, MOXIE (Englisch: Schwung, Biss haben, Schneid, Selbst- und Zielbewusstsein, Mumm, Courage, Tatkraft, den Mut haben), und verteilt ihn in ihrer Schule.
