New Releases by Sarah Mlynowski

From the critically acclaimed author of Ten Things We Did (and Probably Shouldn''t Have) and the Magic in Manhattan series comes a fun short story about taking the plunge on the high seas, where not everything is what it seems. Kristin is ready to take the next step. . . . The only problem is she hasn''t found the right guy to take it with her. That''s why she agreed to go on the ominously named Cruise to Nowhere with her best friend, Liz. There are plenty of cute guys on the ship to choose from if only Kristin can work up the nerve—and stop worrying about the reports in the tabloids that passengers on cruises have been mysteriously disappearing and that someone suspects it has to do with . . . vampires. Epic Reads Impulse is a digital imprint with new releases each month.

Having roommates means living in a fishbowl: you are never alone. Smart, witty and a little bit bitchy, Fishbowl lets you press your face against the glass to see into the lives of three unique roommates—and laugh your head off. Allison, Jodine and Emma set their apartment on fire. No, they didn’t do it on purpose. What kind of lunatics do you think they are? And don’t go worrying. No one got hurt, although they did go to the hospital. Unfortunately, there was no one in white yelling stat!, no one climbing aboard a gurney to thump life back into someone’s heart and no hot paramedic performing artificial respiration. What they do have now is one giant repair bill and no money. Problem? No way! Not for three bright women with a great fund-raising idea—they’ll organize swanky soirees and dating seminars. Perfect. How could this possibly go wrong…?

The first two books in the Magic in Manhattan series -- Bras & Broomsticks and Frogs & French Kisses -- now available in one volume! What if all your wishes could come true?

Now the fate of their family, the world, and senior prom is in Rachel''s hands. . . .

Cuando la vida no resulta como uno desea... Una llamada de teléfono lo puede cambiar todo. Devi desperdició tres años saliendo con el guapo, adorable y rompecorazones de Bryan. Tres años en los que Devi echó a perder sus amistades, descuidó los estudios, ignoró las actividades extracurriculares... Y ahora, justo antes del baile de graduación, Bryan la ha dejado y ella descubre que no le queda nada. Ni siquiera un móvil en condiciones... El suyo se le ha caído dentro de la fuente del centro comercial y solo le permite realizar llamadas a un único número de teléfono... el suyo. ¡Pero el de hace tres años, cuando tenía catorce! Ahora se puede aconsejar sobre cómo hacer bien las cosas... No obstante, su yo de catorce años no lo tiene tan claro. A ella le gusta Bryan. Si has de seguir los consejos de alguien, nadie mejor que tu yo futuro... ¿o no? Los blogs han dicho: «Un libro fresco, con un punto divertido perfecto para pasar una buena tarde, con un buen ritmo y que invita a la reflexión, ¿hasta qué punto una decisión puede cambiarlo todo?» Donde los sueños se hacen realidad «Gimme a call es una lectura muy, muy entretenida, divertida y amena que se lee en nada.» El rincón de las Garrido «Gimme a call te deja pensando sobre lo que realmente es importante para ti en tu vida y si valoras lo suficiente lo que tienes.» Mi estante literario

Inteligente, divertida e irónica, La Pecera te permite pegar la cara al cristal para observar las vidas de tres compañeras de piso muy especiales... y partirte de risa. Allison está deseando que Jodine y Emma se muden al apartamento, hasta que descubre que tener compañeras de piso es como vivir en una pecera. Nunca estás sola. Cuando un pequeño incendio "fortuito" les acaba costando una enorme factura de reparación, las estrategias para evitarse deben ser inmediatamente abandonadas: tienen que buscar dinero... y rápido. (¿Un seguro? ¿Y tenemos que pagarlo nosotras?) Eso significa que deben unir fuerzas. ¿Hacerse amigas? Bueno, al menos se hablan unas con otras. Asombrosamente, se ponen de acuerdo para llevar a cabo un plan: explotar la experiencia de las tres con los hombres para conseguir dinero. Táctica: vender entradas para fiestas que ellas mismas organizan y seminarios que llevan por título Cómo ligar con una tía... Pero esos planes se llevan por delante cualquier vestigio de intimidad con sorprendentes consecuencias. Y cuando, por fin, tienen que mirarse de verdad a sí mismas, las vidas de Allie, Jodine y Emma -y su reciente amistad- están a punto de dar un giro que jamás habrían imaginado...

Praised by New York Times bestselling author Lauren Myracle as “hilarious, moving and flat-out fun,” and Kirkus as a “pitch-perfect rendering…of the teen experience,” Ten Things We Did (and Probably Shouldn''t Have) has captured the hearts of critics and readers alike. Fans of Sarah Dessen, E. Lockhart, and Maureen Johnson will love this hilarious and heartwarming tale of a girl on her own for the first time. If given the opportunity, what sixteen-year-old wouldn’t jump at the chance to move in with a friend and live parent-free? Although maybe “opportunity” isn’t the right word, since April had to tell her dad a tiny little untruth to make it happen (see #1: “Lied to Our Parents”). But she and her housemate Vi are totally responsible and able to take care of themselves. How they ended up “Skipping School” (#3), “Buying a Hot Tub” (#4), and, um, “Harboring a Fugitive” (#7) is a mystery to them. To get through the year, April will have to juggle a love triangle, learn to do her own laundry, and accept that her carefully constructed world just might be falling apart . . . one thing-she-shouldn’t-have-done at a time.
