New Releases by Mariko Tamaki

Montgomery Sole is a square peg in a small town, forced to go to a school full of jocks and girls who don''t even know what irony is. It would all be impossible if it weren''t for her best friends, Thomas and Naoki, who are also the only members of her high school Mystery Club, dedicated to exploring paranormal and supernatural phenomena.Then there''s the Eye of Know, the possibly powerful crystal amulet Monty bought online. Will it help her predict the future or fight back against the ignorant jerks who make fun of Thomas for being gay or Monty for having lesbian moms? Maybe the Eye is here just in time, because the newest resident of their small town is scarier than mothmen, poltergeists, or, you know, gym.

Casey and April take a road trip to the southwest to dig up more clues about the mysterious Pantheon that has seemingly been pulling the strings on the Turtles'' lives from the beginning. They will find even deeper mystery, unexpected danger, and start a new chapter in their relationship.

The stellar team behind "Skim" redefine the teen graphic novel with this gorgeous, heartbreaking, and ultimately hopeful coming-of-age story about a girl and her best friend who experience a summer of secrets and sorrows.

This is a collection of short essays set in urban environments. Stuck in coffee shops, bad jobs, SUVs, and the United States of America, Tamaki''s characters explore and resist social constructions, while seeking sanity and some form of definition. In the tradition of her earlier work, Tamaki mixes social commentary with dry wit, poking fun, not simply at racial, cultural, and sexual prejudice, but also at the ridiculous way these stereotypes play out in everyday life. In ''Fake ID'', identity is not a welcome social construct, but an ugly sweater society gives you for your birthday that doesn''t fit, and clashes with everything you own.
