- I fell in love with hope : a novel / by Lancali,author.;
"Against the unforgiving landscape of a hospital, a group of terminally ill patients embraces the joys within their reach: friendship, freedom, rebellion. Each in their own way is broken; each in their own way is stronger for it. In the midst of pain and loss, they find community, even miracles, and together they are determined to reclaim from life what illness has taken from them. But a singular heartbreak has led one to swear off love forever. The risk of experiencing another tragedy feels too great. Yet, in this desolate place where it seems impossible for love to make an appearance, a door opens--and so do hearts."--Back cover.- Subjects: Bildungsromans.; Bisexual fiction.; Novels.; Bisexual youth; Death; Grief; Love; Suicide; Terminally ill; Thieves;

- The fragments that remain / by Angeconeb, Mackenzie,author.;
"First-year college student Andy can't afford to slow down. Study, volunteer, work, make new friends, fall in love -- whatever it takes to keep her from obsessing over her brother Ally's death, which was ruled suicide by overdose. Navigating a new life chapter without her "honorary twin," Andy writes letters to him as she strives to embrace her bisexuality and her Indigenous identity. Once she discovers Ally's hidden poems, Andy pours over them to make sense of her brother's life -- and his death. Back in senior year, Ally dreamed of being a poet. His parents encouraged him to write as a hobby, but they always expected him to inherit the family-owned bookshop with his sister. Ally wrote to cope with his emptiness, until he turned to drugs to fill the void. Reaching for her brother through unanswered words, Andy must reckon with living a once-shared life alone"--- Subjects: Young adult fiction.; Epistolary fiction.; Novels.; College students; Grief; Indigenous youth; Poets; Siblings; College students; Grief; Indigenous youth; Poets; Siblings;

- Ordinary love / by Rutkoski, Marie,author.;
"A page-turning, irresistible novel of class, ambition, and bisexuality, this is the breathtaking story of a woman risking everything for a second chance at her first love. Emily has, by all appearances, a beautiful life: a townhouse on Manhattan's Upper East Side, two healthy children, and a husband who showers her with attention. But the truth is more complicated: Emily's marriage is in trouble, her relationship with her parents is fraught, and she is still nursing a heartbreak from long ago. When Emily runs into her high school best friend, Gen, at a cocktail party, that heartbreak comes roaring back. But Gen Hall is no longer the lanky, hungry kid with holes in her shoes who Emily loved in her youth. Instead, Gen is now a prominent Olympic athlete with sponsorship deals and a string of high-profile ex-girlfriends. Emily and Gen circle one another cautiously, both drawn together by a magnetic attraction and scarred by their shared history. Once upon a time, Gen knew everything about Emily. And yet, she still abandoned her. Can Emily trust Gen again? Can they forgive each other for mistakes they made in their youth? Can Emily risk her children, her privacy, and the fragile peace she has found with her family just to be with a woman she loved long ago? A sweeping queer romance, Ordinary Love is the beautiful, wrenching, completely seductive story of two people trying to forge a path through fear, bound by a love they discovered when they were too young to understand its power"--- Subjects: Queer fiction.; Psychological fiction.; Novels.; Ambition; Bisexuality; First loves; Lesbians; Social classes; Woman-woman relationships;
