Chasing eternity / by Noël, Alyson,author.;
I'm about to break one of the biggest rules of all. But I need to find my dad. And if that means going back to New York City in 1998 to find him -- before I'm even born -- then that's what I have to do. Because I need someone I trust to teach me what it means to be a Timekeeper. Now I'm in the land of post-grunge, low-rise jeans, baby doll tees, chunky boots ... and risking my own existence in the process. Awesome. This is no ordinary trip. Just about anything can go wrong, and if I get found out, I'll lose not only my home and school ... but Braxton, too. Because there might not be enough forgiveness in the world for what I've done -- and what I am about to do. Because the secrets are more terrible than I thought. The reality is even more horrifying. And I'll do whatever it takes to find out the truth about Gray Wolf Academy, the strange billionaire who runs it, and not only why he's so invested in traveling -- or "Tripping" -- through time, but what his real plans are. And time's almost up.

Small ceremonies : a novel / by Edwards, Kyle,author.;
"A poignant coming-of-age story following the friendships, hopes, fears, and struggles of a group of Native high school students from Winnipeg's North End illuminating what it's like to grow up forgotten, urban, poor, and Indigenous. Word on the street is that this is the Tigers' last season. For Tomahawk "Tommy" Shields, an image-obsessed high school student from a northern Indian reserve, the potential loss of his hockey team serves as a stark reminder of the fact that he is completely uncertain about his future. He can't help but feel that each of his peers has some skill or gift that he lacks, yet each of their perceived virtues hides darker truths too. Clinton is beloved by teachers, but his "good kid" disposition is a desperate attempt not to end up falling prey to the gang violence his older brother has become enmeshed in. Floyd has incredible talent on the ice, yet behind that talent lies deep insecurity about his multiracial background. And the adults that populate Tommy's life-his mother who struggles with schizophrenia; Pete, the wayward Zamboni driver; and elders Maggie and Olga-offer a mixture of well-intentioned but often misguided support and a depressing portent of what the future could hold. Set in Winnipeg's north end, a remote neighborhood at the border of Canada's eastern woodlands and central prairies, Small Ceremonies follows a community that both literally and figuratively straddles two worlds. As its richly drawn characters navigate the thrilling independence of adulthood and the loss of innocence that accompanies adolescence, one can't help but root for Tommy and his community, even as Tommy himself reckons with his place in it"--

Try your worst / by Greenfield, Chatham,author.;
Sadie Katz and Cleo Chapman have been rivals since birth. Literally. They entered the world competing to be the first baby born in the new year, and ever since Cleo beat out Sadie for that title, she has been nonchalantly beating Sadie at just about everything--and making it look easy. Now in the fall of their senior year, Sadie and Cleo are neck-and-neck for valedictorian. But then a string of increasingly serious pranks take over their high school, and all signs point to Sadie and Cleo as the perpetrators. Suddenly expulsion is on the line, and the only way to clear their names is to team up and find out who is framing them. It's not only suspects the girls are questioning, though. Sadie's ivy league dream isn't feeling as appealing as it once did, and Cleo is wondering if it's about time she start fighting for what she really wants instead of just accepting whatever comes easiest. With their futures on the line, the two grow closer, and both begin to wonder: Could it be that Sadie and Cleo weren't meant to be rivals at all, and were instead destined to be something more?
