Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to Grosse Pointe, Michigan, where social rank is determined by the age of your money and the dryness of your martini. The new girl in town, Emma Harris, must prove herself hip to the rigid rules of adolescent conformity. The quest for cool, she discovers, is one long final exam. To pass she must be cruel to be kind (ditching her best friend for the popular crowd), dress to impress (trading her favorite Esprit shirt for three plastic bracelets), and master the art of seduction (puckering up with Mulberry Stain or Peaches 'n' Cream lip gloss). Life is all about making choices -- the right ones. Will Emma's social acrobatics put her on the short list for that coveted country club membership? Will the digits of her zip code pass muster? If her parents split up, will the gossip help or hurt her in the rankings? Grosse Pointe Girl serves as an indispensable road map through the dysfunction privilege brings. So put on your Guess? jeans and your jelly shoes and come along for the ride to the adolescent days that time forgot, but you never will.

Book excerpt: Spanning eight decades and chronicling the wild ride of a Greek-American family through the vicissitudes of the twentieth century, Jeffrey Eugenides’ witty, exuberant novel on one level tells a traditional story about three generations of a fantastic, absurd, lovable immigrant family -- blessed and cursed with generous doses of tragedy and high comedy. But there’s a provocative twist. Cal, the narrator -- also Callie -- is a hermaphrodite. And the explanation for this takes us spooling back in time, through a breathtaking review of the twentieth century, to 1922, when the Turks sacked Smyrna and Callie’s grandparents fled for their lives. Back to a tiny village in Asia Minor where two lovers, and one rare genetic mutation, set our narrator’s life in motion. Middlesex is a grand, utterly original fable of crossed bloodlines, the intricacies of gender, and the deep, untidy promptings of desire. It’s a brilliant exploration of divided people, divided families, divided cities and nations -- the connected halves that make up ourselves and our world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a lowly freshman named for "The King," Presley Moran walks high school corridors paved with the stuff of family legend. Her cousin Barry, a senior heartthrob and brainy varsity letterman, insists that looking good on paper is the key to success. But Presley's young aunt Betsi, a former homecoming queen, has her own ideas about good looks and how to use them. "Can you keep a secret?" Betsi asks Presley, who, at age fourteen, is eager for entrée into the adult world of beauty, attraction, and romance. But as Presley is about to discover, some secrets should never be revealed. Will the illicit thrill of being a trusted confidante, privy to the details of muddled entanglements and incompatible desires, be worth the consequences of guilt by association? Propelled by the crash of falling idols, The Girl I Wanted to Be is a timeless and true portrait of passion, loss, and hard-won wisdom.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1993, The Virgin Suicides announced the arrival of a major new American novelist. In a quiet suburb of Detroit, the five Lisbon sisters—beautiful, eccentric, and obsessively watched by the neighborhood boys—commit suicide one by one over the course of a single year. As the boys observe them from afar, transfixed, they piece together the mystery of the family’s fatal melancholy, in this hypnotic and unforgettable novel of adolescent love, disquiet, and death. Jeffrey Eugenides evokes the emotions of youth with haunting sensitivity and dark humor and creates a coming-of-age story unlike any of our time. Adapted into a critically acclaimed film by Sofia Coppola, The Virgin Suicides is a modern classic, a lyrical and timeless tale of sex and suicide that transforms and mythologizes suburban middle-American life.

Book excerpt: Changing the Game is set at a fictional university in the mid-1990s. A debate over the role of athletics quickly expands to encompass demands that women's sports and athletes receive more resources and opportunities. The result is a firestorm of controversy on and off campus. Drawing on congressional testimonies from the Title IX hearings, players advance their views in student government meetings, talk radio shows, town meetings, and impromptu rallies. As students wrestle with questions of gender parity and the place of athletics in higher education, they learn about the implementation—and implications—of legal change in the United States.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Howard, a young journalism student, is just scraping through life at Wayne State University after the Army, using all the tricks he can conjure to get money. Then he meets Marian Herbaugh as new classes begin and his life is never the same. Marian is a wealthy Grosse Pointe girl, who had been at college in New York until her father had a heart attack. She came home to be with her family during her fathers final days. But the fathers illness stretched on and when the fall term began, Marian enrolled at Detroits working class university, Wayne State. Marian met Howard Keck in Contemporarily American Literature. From the first date, both were smitten with one another; there was no going back. But the dark abyss of their opposing economic backgrounds was waiting. From the onset, Marians father, after learning of his daughters affection for Howard, manages to recover from his heart malady, and sets a course to drive a wedge between the two lovers. The father is ruthless and he has only one rule; win, no matter what the cost. He goes to his silent business partner, Aschenbrenner, for help, and a sinister plan to crush Howard is launched. Marian, at the mercy of a determined father, listens to his condemnation of Howard and his future ability to make money to support her lifestyle. She wavers. A new suitor is quickly found for Marian, a man who meets all the criterion of the father. And once the marriage proposal is made, Howard is out. He wanders to Florida seeking relief from his loss, and is successful in being hired at Fort Lauderdale Newspaper. He becomes involved with people in the anti-Castro movement. Marian, who becomes aware she has made a mistake in her hasty marriage, wants to be free again, and contacts Howard to help her. Howard returns to Michigan and the two are united. But Marians father continues his campaign against Howard and is determined to salvage his daughters marriage. When the father urges the husband to take action, it results in an unexpected series of events no one expected.
