Junior Summer Reading

凌晨三点在纽约闲逛, 23岁的April May偶然发现了一个巨大的雕塑. Delighted by its appearance and craftsmanship—like a ten-foot-tall Transformer wearing a suit of samurai armor—April and her best friend, Andy, make a video with it, which Andy uploads to YouTube. 第二天，爱普莉尔醒来，看到了一段病毒式传播的视频，开始了新的生活. News quickly spreads that there are Carls in dozens of cities around the world—from Beijing to Buenos Aires—and April, as their first documentarian, 发现自己成为了国际媒体关注的焦点.

抓住机会在世界上留下自己的印记, April now has to deal with the consequences her new particular brand of fame has on her relationships, her safety, and her own identity. And all eyes are on April to figure out not just what the Carls are, but what they want from us.

Kay Willingham led a life as glamorous as it was public — she was a gorgeous Georgetown socialite, philanthropist, and the ex-wife of the vice-president. So why was she parked in a Bentley convertible idling behind a DC private school, in the middle of the night, 和那个外围博彩平台的校长在一起? 是谁近距离射杀了他们，为什么? 这起令人震惊的双尸案在互联网上广为流传, TV, 报纸——以及亚历克斯·克罗斯的想法. Kay had been his patient once. And maybe more.

Alex Cross and FBI Special Agent Ned Mahoney travel to Alabama to investigate Kay’s early years. There they find a world of trouble, corruption, and secrets, 他们都不对外开放，比如克罗斯和马奥尼. 加伊有许多敌人，但他们似乎都需要她活着. The harder the investigators push, the more resistance they find when they leave behind the polite law offices and doctors’ quarters of the state capital. 亚历克斯·克罗斯需要运用他作为医生的所有技能, a detective, 还有一个顾家的男人来阻止这种抵抗再次变成致命的. 

这是一个令人难忘的真实故事，讲述了仁慈可能救赎我们的故事, and a clarion call to end mass incarceration in America — from one of the most inspiring lawyers of our time.

Bryan Stevenson was a young lawyer when he founded the Equal Justice Initiative, a nonprofit law office in Montgomery, Alabama, dedicated to defending the poor, the incarcerated, and the wrongly condemned.

Just Mercy tells the story of EJI, from the early days with a small staff facing the nation’s highest death sentencing and execution rates, through a successful campaign to challenge the cruel practice of sentencing children to die in prison, to revolutionary projects designed to confront Americans with our history of racial injustice.

EJI的第一批客户之一是Walter McMillian, a young Black man who was sentenced to die for the murder of a young white woman that he didn’t commit. The case exemplifies how the death penalty in America is a direct descendant of lynching — a system that treats the rich and guilty better than the poor and innocent.

托尼邓吉的话语和榜样吸引了数百万人, 特别是在他赢得超级碗之后, 这是第一位非裔美国教练. How is it possible for a coach--especially a football coach--to win the respect of his players and lead them to the Super Bowl without the screaming histrionics, the profanities, 体育运动高于一切的要求? How is it possible for anyone to be successful without compromising faith and family? 在这本鼓舞人心、发人深省的回忆录中, Coach Dungy tells the story of a life lived for God and family--and challenges us all to redefine our ideas of what it means to succeed. 包括丹泽尔·华盛顿的前言和16页的彩色照片插入.

The scrawled sign, 在农舍门廊上叫卖年幼的兄弟姐妹, 捕捉到了1931年席卷全国的绝望情绪. 这是一个排队领取救济、银行挤兑和各种不可能选择的时代.

For struggling reporter Ellis Reed, 这个撕心裂肺的场景唤起了他对家庭黑暗过去的回忆. 他给孩子们拍了一张照片，不打算发表. 但当这张照片给他带来重大突破时, 后果是毁灭性的，这是他从未想象过的.

Haunted by secrets of her own, secretary Lillian Palmer sees more in the picture than a good story and is soon drawn into the fray. Together, 两人着手纠正错误，修补破碎的家庭, at the risk of everything they value.

灵感来源于报纸上的一张真实照片，这张照片震惊了全国的读者, this touching novel explores the tale within the frame and behind the lens—a journey of ambition, love, 以及我们行动的深远影响.

Molly Gray is not like everyone else. 她在社交技巧上有困难，而且会误解别人的意图. 她奶奶过去常常为她解读这个世界, 把它整理成莫莉可以遵守的简单规则.
