“I’m finishing up I Believe in a Thing Called Love by Maurene Goo...It is a goddamn delight.” — Veronica Roth in Entertainment Weekly
“Desi’s confidence knows no bounds, except when it comes to the opposite sex. Repeated attempts at wooing would-be suitors having backfired, Desi finds Luca too good to lose, so she turns to an unlikely mainstay of her home life for help: the Korean dramas her father has watched obsessively for years, where star-crossed lovers seem always to win in the end. (A starter guide is helpfully appended.) Previously dismissing the formulaic K dramas as the ‘white noise’ of her life, Desi begins to study their plotlines intently, going so far as to craft 24 ‘K Drama Steps to True Love.’ Desi’s implementation of measures such as ‘Be Caught in an Obviously Lopsided Love Triangle,’ yields hilarious, at times unintended results, lending this teen rom-com a surprisingly thoughtful conclusion. Plot-driven as the K dramas Goo’s protagonist seeks to emulate, her funny, engaging narrative also delivers powerful messages of inclusion and acceptance.”—Kirkus, starred review

by Tillie Walden Spinning First Second September 2017; 6 x 8 ½; 400 pp.; Ages 14 & Up; 2 color art; Editor: Connie Hsu
“A beautifully told story that will resonate with anyone who played an instrument, or did gymnastics, or got signed up for skating: these things weren’t always what we wanted to do or cared about, but they gave us some focus when everything else was mystery and chaos.” — Lucy Knisley, New York Times bestselling author of Relish: My Life in the Kitchen
“Spinning is spare yet intimate, painfully honest, and oh-so-real.” — Malinda Lo, three-time Lambda Literary Award finalist and author of Ash and Adaptation
Figure skating was Tillie Walden’s life. She woke before dawn for morning lessons, went straight to group practice after school, and spent weekends competing in glitter and tights. It was a central piece of her identity, her safe haven from the stress of school, bullies, and family. But as Tillie’s interests evolve, from her growing passion for art to a first love realized with a new girlfriend, she begins to question how the close-minded world of figure skating fits in.
Poignant and captivating, this powerful graphic memoir captures what it’s like to come of age, come out, and come to terms with leaving behind everything you used to know.
Tillie Walden is a two-time Ignatz Award–winning cartoonist. Her comics include The End of Summer and I Love This Part, an Eisner Award nominee.

For Pri, her mother’s homeland can only exist in her imagination. That is, until she finds a mysterious pashmina tucked away in a forgotten suitcase. To learn the truth, Pri must travel farther than she’s ever dared and find the family she never knew.
