Аннабель Питчер 3.8

Абсолютный победитель.

На первый взгляд, пятнадцатилетняя Зои – обычная девчонка с обычными проблемами. У нее есть: А) вечно ругающиеся родители, которые запрещают ходить на вечеринки; Б) младшие сестры, за которыми нужно присматривать; В) лучшая подруга Лорен, с которой можно обсудить все на свете.
Но вот уже несколько месяцев Зои скрывает необычную тайну. Наконец она решает открыться, хотя бы в письме, тому, кто поймет ее, как никто, — мистеру Харрису, убийце в камере смертников в Техасе. Ведь он тоже знает, каково это — убить любимого человека…
Вооружившись ручкой и бутербродом с джемом, Зои строчка за строчкой открывает свою страшную правду — о неоднозначной любви, мучительном чувстве вины и дне, который навсегда изменил ее жизнь.

С детских лет ее учили убивать. К восемнадцати она стала самой известной женщиной-ассасином во всем королевстве. И даже из мрачных каторжных подземелий, куда она была сослана, ее имя продолжает вызывать страх и трепет. Селена Сардотин. Хладнокровная преступница и очаровательная пленница, чьи сила и способности могут понадобиться ее врагам. Но сначала она должна доказать свое превосходство на турнире в стеклянном замке. Это единственный путь к свободе в стране, где по приказу короля уничтожены древние знания и жестоко карается даже простое упоминание о магии. Но магию не вытравить по принуждению, она способна проявляться неожиданно. Как и любовь.

When he and his mother moor their narrow boat on the outskirts of a village, she tells him this time it will be different. He doesn't believe her; he can't imagine why this place shouldn't be as unwelcoming as the rest. Until he meets Jenna.

If you haven't worked it out yet, girls don't do this. They don't come to the Hovel. They don't like goblins and dragons. They don't paint miniatures. They don't play role playing games or re-enact fictional battles. And they don't talk to Geeks like me especially if they're pretty. And this girl is pretty. What do you do if you're a fourteen-year-old Geek, and a Beautiful Girl has appeared in the midst of your geeky world? And she seems to like you... For Archie, the natural reaction would be to duck and cover ... run for the hills ... buy a new model elf... Anything but risk stepping into the Real World. But even Geeks have to put their heads above the parapet at some point. With his mum barely able to contain her excitement that her son is about to join the human race, and his step-father, Tony the Tosser, offering crass advice, it's time for Archie to embark on a daring Quest to win the Beautiful Girl's heart and shake off his Geekhood for good...

Р. Дж. Паласио 4.6
Есть на свете пятиклассник по имени Август Пулман. С одной стороны, он такой же как и другие мальчишки его возраста – любит ходить на дни рождения к своим друзьям, играть в компьютерные игры, он фанатеет от «Звездных войн», играет со своей собакой, ссорится и мирится со старшей сестрой. А с другой, он совсем не такой как другие мальчишки его возраста. Во-первых, Август никогда не ходил в обычную школу – с первого класса с ним дома занималась мама. Во-вторых, Август перенес 27 операций.

Из-за очень редкой, но иногда встречающейся генетической ошибки у Августа нет лица. Не пугайтесь. У него есть глаза и нос, рот и уши. Но все это перемешано на его лице так, что не сразу и разберешь. И с младенческого возраста Август привык к тому, что дети (да и не которые взрослые), бросив взгляд на его лицо, быстро отворачивались, а то и удирали со всех ног.

И вот такой мальчик должен пойти в школу. В первый раз. К обычным детям. Историю о жизни Августа (его семьи, старых и новых друзей) в течение одного учебного года рассказала в своем первом романе американка Р.Дж. Паласио.

Это книга не о мальчике-инвалиде. Мальчике-без-лица. Мальчике-невидимке. Мальчике-шокирующем-окружающих.

Это книга о том, как мужество, чувство юмора, доброта и дружба способны сотворить настоящее чудо. Поэтому она так и называется «Чудо».
