Review: Truancy

Truancy

Isamu Fukui

Tack is a fifteen year old just trying to get through school. Most of us would think that it’s not so bad. But for Tack, it’s even worse. Tack lives in a totalitarian city, where the Mayor and the Educators team up together to suppress the students and mold them into good, obedient citizens. But there are some students that just won’t be quieted. This group of students is called the Truancy, and their goal is to take down this school system.

Review: Roots and Wings

Roots and Wings

Many Ly

Grace’s whole world centers on the two people that make up her family: her mom and grandmother. She’s never met her father, and her mom won’t tell her about him. Yet she feels that there is something missing from her life. And when her grandmother dies, the hole in her heart gets even wider.

Review: Suite Scarlett

Suite Scarlett

Maureen Johnson

Scarlett Martin’s family is unusual, even for New York City. They live in and own a hotel. The most unusual part about their family comes on the fifteenth birthday – in addition to the normal birthday gifts, each person gets a key to a room they have to take care of. Because, you see, the Martins may live in a hotel, but that doesn’t mean they’re rich. In fact, they’re a little bit further than that.

Review: The Second Virginity of Suzy Green

The Second Virginity of Suzy Green

Sara Hantz

Suzy Green could not have felt worse about what happened to her older sister Rose. Her parents were even more torn up, Suzy figured, because Rose was the perfect one in the family. So when her dad’s job sends their family to another city, Suzy uses this as a chance to recreate herself and her image. She does not drink anymore. She works harder than she ever has before in school. She even thinks about joining a few clubs, until she finds out that the cool thing is…

Virginity club.
