      From award-winning, bestselling author David Levithan and beloved, acclaimed singer-songwriter Jens Lekman comes a charming, tender novel about an unlucky-in-love wedding singer trying to find the right words to save his relationship J is an accidental wedding singer. Unlike most wedding singers, he writes an original song for every couple--his way of finding out about the small, strange things that brought them together and the hopeful, vulnerable feelings they're experiencing. J's own love life is in a state of flux. His girlfriend is off to New York for work, and as her life grows bigger and busier without him in it, he finds it harder to stick to a happy tune. He doesn't know whether to encourage the soon-to-be-wed couples or warn them. When complications hit and love is tested, is there any way to sing through all the noise? Combining David Levithan's deeply observant storytelling and Jens Lekman's inventive and touching original songs, Songs for Other People's Weddings is a tender, honest novel that tracks love through all its chord changes, never forgetting that the best songs contain the bitter and the sweet, the despair of losing it all and the euphoria of being found.

    • From the New York Times bestselling author of Every Day, this is a queer love story set against the backdrop of the 2024 presidential election, in a reimagining of David Levithan’s 2004 novel Wide Awake. When David Levithan published Wide Awake in 2004, he set it in an imagined 2024, where a gay Jewish man had just been elected president of the United States, until a governor decides that some election results in his state are invalid, awarding crucial votes to the other candidate and his fellow party member. What follows is the story of teens Jimmy and Duncan as they explore their relationship, their politics, and their country. In Wide Awake Now, David Levithan is flipping the script and rewriting Jimmy and Duncan’s story in the real 2024, rather than his imagined version. This is a protest novel for today. Once again, David Levithan proves the critical importance of standing up for what you believe in and the cost of apathy in today’s political climate.

In Red Right Hand, Charlie Tristan Moore was thrust into a nightmarish world of lurking Lovecraftian horrors when The Man In Black, a diabolical Elder God, chose her as his unwilling Acolyte. Discovering her own power, Charlie ultimately defied The Man In Black, but at a cost. Now armed with a magic coat made from the skin of a flayed angel, Charlie is out to destroy The Man In Black and save her boyfriend Daniel—and she doesn’t care how many bloodthirsty gods and monsters get in her way...

    • How does one talk about love? We are all beginners when it comes to love, from those tentative first dates to learning how to live with, or without, someone. But how does one describe love? How does one chart its delights and pleasures, its depths and desolations? Do we even have the right words to describe something that can be both utterly mundane and completely transcendent, pulling us out of our everyday lives and making us feel a part of something greater than ourselves? David Levithan's The Lover's Dictionary starts where we all once started - with the alphabet. Constructing the story of a relationship as a dictionary, Levithan explores the intimacies and workings of love through his nameless narrator, to paint a moving portrait of love through everyday words. Cleverly using the confines of language to provide an intimate window into the great events and quotidian trifles of being part of a couple, Levithan gives us an indelible and deeply moving portrait of love in our time.

Someone is stalking him . . . messing with him . . . threatening him. Worse, ever since his best friend Ariel has been gone, he's been unable to sleep, spending night after night torturing himself for his role in her absence. And as crazy as it sounds, Evan's starting to believe it's Ariel that's behind all of this, punishing him. But the more Evan starts to unravel the mystery, the more his paranoia and insomnia amplify, and the more he starts to unravel himself. Creatively told with black-and-white photos interspersed between the text so the reader can see the photos that are so unnerving to Evan, Every You, Every Me is a one-of-a-kind departure from a one-of-a-kind author.

    • Teens are more aware of sexuality and identity than ever, and they’re looking for answers and insights, as well as a community of others. In order to help create that community, YA authors David Levithan and Billy Merrell have collected original poems, essays, and stories by young adults in their teens and early 20s. The Full Spectrum includes a variety of writers—gay, lesbian, bisexual, straight, transitioning, and questioning—on a variety of subjects: coming out, family, friendship, religion/faith, first kisses, break-ups, and many others. This one of a kind collection will, perhaps, help all readers see themselves and the world around them in ways they might never have imagined. We have partnered with the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) and a portion of the proceeds from this book will be donated to them.

    • "Můžeš na pět minut předstírat, že jsi moje holka?“ ptá se Nick Norah, když mezi návštěvníky klubu uvidí svou bývalku. A právě takovým klišé začíná příběh dvou mladých lidí, jejichž životní cesty se náhle protnou a trochu kodrcavě pak spolu pokračují. Nick je basák a jediný hetero v punkové kapele plné gayů. Norah je dívka, která má pocit, že víc problémů by nedokázal řešit ani tým specialistů v pentagonu. A jediná společná noc v New Yorku. A najdete v ní všechno – zoufalství, touhu, odpuštění, zklamání. Jsou tu rodiče, s kterými je nutné nějak vyjít, jsou tu přátelé, s nimiž vyjít je někdy těžší než zdolat Mt. Everest. A je tu kluk a holka, kteří pro jednou nechtějí nic jiného než být sami sebou, nepředstírat, na nic si nehrát, ani se snažit s kýmkoliv vyjít. A je tu láska, vztek a nekonečný seznam písniček. A je to příběh, který si prostě musíte přečíst.

    • Jak se vlastně dá mluvit o lásce, aniž by to znělo přihlouple nebo kýčovitě? Jak popsat něco, co s námi dennodenně mává, a nesklouznout k laciným klišé či cukrkandlovému patosu? Úspěšný americký autor David Levithan nabízí originální řešení: svůj román staví z komentovaných slovníkových hesel a postupně z nich rozvíjí příběh jednoho vztahu – od tápavých začátků přes období vrcholné zamilovanosti po nevyhnutelnou krizi a snahu o její zvládnutí. Výběrem jednotlivých hesel i svým elegantním a vtipným stylem přitom David Levithan vytváří půvabný a zvláštně podmanivý portrét typického milostného vztahu naší doby. Krátké, stručné, minimalistické, dojemné. Bittersweet love story.
