Lost It What would you do...
...if your best friend were plotting the annihilation
of a small, furry neighborhood poodle? Or if your parents up and moved
to an Outward Bound-type survival camp in the middle of the desert?
How about if your grandmother bought you new bras and underwear -- and
you actually thought they were a teensy bit, umm, sexy?
Most people would not react well.
Tess Whistle's junior year of high school is off to
a fairly bizarre start. One might even say her life is spiraling out
of control. But with her sense of humor firmly intact and her first
real boyfriend on her arm, Tess is dealing with the ridiculous twists
quite well, thankyouverymuch.
Just wait until her shoes explode.

Crimes of the Sarahs At sixteen, Sarah Trestle has a lot going for her. She's cute, funny, and a terrific alto. She's also great behind the wheel, which is why she drives the getaway car. But Sarah T. doesn't complain; she loves being part of the best clique in Kalamazoo: The Sarahs. Sarahs Aberdeen, Babbitt, Cody, and Trestle aren't out to hurt anyone--they're simply honing their craft. They start off their summer the usual way: interspersing petty crimes with nature walks, crushes, and volunteer work. Of course, everyone knows that a band of criminals is only as strong as its weakest link. When Sarah T. botches a shoplifting attempt, her fate in The Sarahs is seriously called into question. And she's willing to do just about anything to prove that she's worthy . . . Crimes of the Sarahs was released in March 2008 by Simon Pulse.
