Pirate Princess
Summary
Being a princess is all about curtseying, flower-arranging, and walking around with books balanced on your head; unless you're a Pirate Princess, of course! When her father decides that she must marry Prince Rupert, the drippiest prince around, Portia's only option is to run away to sail the high seas, with her ladies-in-waiting as her trusty crew. Word reaches them that Princess Peppermint, Portia's cousin, needs rescuing from a horrible marriage of her own, and fast! Meanwhile, Count Nasty is looking for Portia - and will stop at nothing to put an end to her pirate antics.

This Is Not a Love Story
Summary
A razor-sharp, hilarious, and poignant memoir about growing up in the closed world of the ultraorthodox Jewish community. The third of six children in a family that harks back to a gloried Hassidic dynasty, Judy Brown grew up with the legacy of centuries of religious teaching and the faith and lore that sustained her people for generations. But her carefully constructed world begins to crumble when her "crazy" brother, Nachum, returns home after a year in Israel living with relatives. Though supposedly "cured", he is still prone to retreating into his own mind or erupting in wordless rages. The adults' inability to make him better - or even to give his affliction a name - forces Judy to ask larger questions: If God could perform miracles for her sainted ancestors, why can't he cure Nachum? And what of the other stories her family treasured? Judy starts to negotiate with God, swinging from holy tenets to absurdly hilarious conclusions faster than a Talmudic scholar: She goes on a fast to nab coveted earrings; she fights with her siblings at the dinner table for the ultimate badge of honor ("Who will survive the next Holocaust?"); and she adamantly defends her family's reputation when, scandalously, her parents are accused of having fallen in love - which is absolutely not what pious people do. For all its brutal honesty about this insular community, This Is Not a Love Story is ultimately a story of a family like so many others, whose fierce love for each other and devotion to their faith pulled them through the darkest time in their lives.
