Best Selling Books by E. Lockhart

''I think this might be the best YA novel...I''ve ever read. It''s hilarious, and it''s so very smart. I mean, I''m serious...It''s really amazing.'' - John Green, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Fault in Our Stars From E. Lockhart, author of the New York Times bestseller and Zoella Book Club 2016 title, We Were Liars, comes a story about one girl who saw everything . . . At the Manhattan School of Art and Music, where everyone is unique, Gretchen Yee feels ordinary. It doesn''t help that she''s known as the shy girl who sits alone at lunch, drawing pictures of her favourite superhero, just so she won''t have to talk to anyone. It''s no surprise that Gretchen isn''t exactly successful in the boy department. Her ex-boyfriend is a cold-fish-sometimes-flirty ex who she can''t stop bumping into. Plus, she has a massive crush on a boy named, Titus but is too scared to make the first move. One minute he seems like a sensitive guy, the next, he''s a completely different person when he''s with his friends. She can''t seem to figure boys out! Gretchen has one wish: to be a fly on the wall in the boy''s locker room. What are boys really like? What do they talk about? This is the story of how one girl''s wish came true.

Sparky and smart, flawed yet determined - and, yes, possibly a criminal mastermind - meet Frankie. You might not look at the world the same way after... As a girl, Frankie knows she is supposed to play by the rules. But the rules were made by boys. So Frankie Landau-Banks decides to take matters into her own hands, outsmarting the secret all-male society at her rich kid boarding school by tricking the members, including her own boyfriend, into believing her increasingly outrageous commands are their leader''s. Undaunted by her male peers, Frankie contests the old-fashioned idea that it''s the boys who rule the school proving that girls are not to be dismissed - even by her own father, a former member of the all-male society himself! Witty and sharp from the author of We Were Liars, this book will "challenge girls'' images of themselves, who they are in relation to boys and why." - THE NEW YORK TIMES Readers love The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau-Banks ''Adorably warm and funny'' Guardian ''A life-affirming, funny, thoroughly modern take on feminism . . . Lockhart has given us a believable and inspirational heroine for our time.'' Daily Mail ''A fictional high-wire ride master-minded by a novelist at the top of her form'' Books for Keeps

Chatted a couple times this summer when they bumped into each other outside of school--once shopping in the U District, and once in the Elliot Bay Bookstore. But she hadn''t called Ruby, or anything. Noel: Didn''t care what anyone thinks. Meghan: Didn''t have any other friends. Dr. Z: Speaking. And Jackson. The big one. Not speaking. But with a new job, an unlikely but satisfying friend combo, additional entries to "The Boy Book" and many difficult decisions help Ruby to see that there is, indeed, life outside the Tate Universe.

Ruby Oliver is in love. Or it would be love, if Noel, her real live boyfriend, would call her back. But Noel seems to have turned into a pod-robot lobotomy patient, and Ruby can''t figure out why. Not only is her romantic life a shambles: her dad is eating nothing but Cheetos; her mother''s got a piglet head in the refrigerator; Hutch has gone to Paris to play baguette air guitar; Gideon shows up shirtless; and the pygmy goat Robespierre is no help whatsoever...Will Ruby ever control her panic attacks? Will she ever understand boys? Will she ever stop making lists? (No to that last one.) Ruby has lost most of her friends. She''s lost her true love, more than once. She''s lost her grandmother, her job, her reputation, and possibly her mind. But she''s never lost her sense of humor. The Ruby Oliver books are the record of her survival...

That summer she would fall in and out of love more than once, in different ways, in different possible worlds. In every world, she was consumed with the intense contradictions of her heart. Adelaide wanted to be rescued and she wanted independence. She was inclined to laziness, curiosity, and magical thinking. She was all charm and yet deeply miserable. She was a liar and she hated liars. She loved both truly and wrongheadedly.

Findings of inverted-U relationships between income and certain types of pollution have generated considerable controversy, yet relatively little is known about the factors underlying these relationships. U.S. emissions of several major air pollutants have begun to decline, mirroring the trajectories found using data across countries and across time. This paper examines U.S. emissions of six air pollutants between 1970 and 1990, decomposing the observed changes into scale, composition, energy efficiency, energy mix, and other technique effects. Our results provide a case study of the relative importance of these effects for a country on the downward-sloping portions of its emissions trajectories for the pollutants we examine.
