Imogen, obviously / by Albertalli, Becky,author.;
"Imogen Scott may be hopelessly heterosexual, but she's got the Worlds Greatest Ally title locked down. She's never missed a Pride Alliance meeting. She knows more about queer media discourse than her very queer little sister. She even has two queer best friends. There's Gretchen, a fellow high school senior, who helps keep Imogen's biases in check. And then there's Lili--newly out and newly thriving with a cool new squad of queer college friends. Imogen's thrilled for Lili. Any ally would be. And now that she's finally visiting Lili on campus, she's bringing her ally A game. Any support Lili needs, Imogen's all in. Even if that means bending the truth, just a little. Like when Lili drops a tiny queer bombshell: she's told all her college friends that Imogen and Lili used to date. And none of them know that Imogen is a raging hetero--not even Lili's best friend, Tessa. Of course, the more time Imogen spends with chaotic, freckle-faced Tessa, the more she starts to wonder if her truth was ever all that straight to begin ..."--014+.Grades 10-12.

The quiet side of passion / by McCall Smith, Alexander,1948-author.;
"As the mother of two small children, Isabel finds herself at the nursery school gate enlarging her circle of friends to include other parents. There she meets Patricia, a musician living in Edinburgh, the mother of a small classmate called Basil Phelps. Patricia takes to Isabel and tries to bring Isabel into her social circle. Isabel is vaguely disquieted by this--there is something about Patricia that she does not quite like, but, with her usual attention to moral obligation, she does her best to be civil and supportive--after all, Patricia is a single mother struggling to get by. Or so one might think; in fact, Patricia seems to live in comfort in a fairly expensive part of town. Isabel hears from her husband, Jamie, that this child is allegedly the unacknowledged son of a well-known Edinburgh organist, Basil Phelps (sr.). Isabel and Jamie are invited to a weekend house-party in a small border town south of Edinburgh. Quite by chance, she happens to see Patricia going into an antique shop there with a man. Isabel does not think much more about that, but shortly afterwards she sees them coming out and she gets a better view of the man's face. He has a strikingly freckled complexion--as does the small boy, Basil (jr.). The organist--the alleged father--has a very different complexion. Jamie discourages Isabel from pursuing the matter, but her sense of justice is pricked, and she decides to look into the matter further. Isabel intervenes in the lives of Patricia and the purported father and comes close to overstepping her own boundaries, as she uncovers a scheme of fake antiquities and illicit trafficking in cultural objects. And she learns about her own misconceptions when her niece strikes up a relationship with a tattoo artist. Isabel is not in favour of tattoos, or of those who execute them, but her assumptions are misguided, and she discovers that the tattoo artist has very fine qualities. (They become friendly, and he even offers to give her a free tattoo--a passage from Plato would do nicely, he says.) In this twelfth full-length installment of Isabel's story, McCall Smith gives his readers what we want--time inside the mind of one of fiction's most richly developed women detectives, a visit to Edinburgh, and a twisting and tangled mystery about what responsibility humans owe to each other."--

A face is a poem / by Morstad, Julie.;
"A face is a poem with all the parts put together, adding up to a someone you love. Have you ever stopped and looked, really looked, at a face? Do faces stay the same forever, or do they change? Where do our faces come from? In a playful and sensitive philosophical exploration, award-winning author/illustrator Julie Morstad guides readers through a fantastical meditation on the unique eyes, noses, mouths, freckles, wrinkles, scars and all those one-of-a-kind marks that make up a face. Embracing commonalities and differences alike, A Face Is a Poem is an ode to the unique beauty of each and every person's unique appearance, with an empowering message of self-love"--
