'74 and Sunny
by A. J. BenzaA surprisingly tender coming-of-age story of a close-knit yet tough Sicilian-American family that accepts and welcomes a young boy struggling to understand himself--by the former Daily News (New York) gossip columnist and E! television host.A.J. Benza's distinctive blend of wit, dry humor, and genuine tenderness shines through this candid, compelling memoir about the summer of 1974 when his shy, effeminate cousin comes to live with A.J.'s family, which is dominated by his short-tempered, outspoken, hyper-masculine father. At its core, A.J.'s story is about learning that "being exactly who you were meant to be is the only thing that matters." Through anecdotes of fishing with his father, playing tackle football, and conquering neighborhood bullies, he tells a story of triumph and acceptance, of a loving but rough around the edges family that puts aside its prejudices to welcome with open arms a young boy struggling to understand his sexuality and ultimately accept himself. In a sometimes raw and always endearing voice, '74 and Sunny is a revelatory account of a life-defining summer on Long Island, when tolerance wins over ignorance, family neutralizes fear, and love triumphs over all. For anyone who's navigated the choppy seas of adolescence, this story about redefining what it means to be a man, and learning to accept those whom we might fail to understand will surely resonate.

A dos centímetros de ti
by Elizabeth Eulberg¿Pueden chicos y chicas realmente ser amigos? ¿O siempre están a una pelea de no volverse a hablar nunca... o a un beso de encontrar el amor verdadero? «Los chicos y las chicas pueden ser amigos. Yo solo digo que es perfectamente posible que un chico y una chica sean amigos. Nunca he entendido cuál es el problema. O sea, sí, hemos tenido que soportar un montón de preguntas estúpidas: ¿Estáis juntos?, Pero algún rollo habréis tenido, ¿no? Bueno, vale. Sea como sea, reconozco que no todo ha ido como la seda. Hemos tenido algún que otro problemilla. Vale, bastantes problemas. Pero mira cómo ha acabado todo. Cuando llegué al colegio, ambos dimos por supuesto que no volveríamos a intercambiar palabra después de aquel primer día. Sobre todo tú, porque enloqueciste por mí en cuanto me viste. Abundan los adjetivos para describirme: genial, fuerte, viril... ¿Quieres que siga?» Digamos que Macallan y Levi fueron amigos a primera vista. Todo el mundo dice que chicos y chicas no pueden ser amigos de verdad, pero ellos lo son. Y mucho. Quedan después del instituto, comparten miles de chistes que solo ellos entienden, sus familias están superunidas... Levi y Macallan solo son amigos, y están felices así. Pero, claro, los chicos no piden salir a Macallan porque piensan que está con Levi y Levi pasa tanto tiempo con ella que no le queda tiempo para sus novias. Así que un día comenzarán a preguntarse si no estarían mejor juntos. Aunque quizá eso complique demasiado su relación. Reseñas: «... Con un guiño a Cuando Harry encontró a Sally, Elizabeth Eulberg ubica a sus personajes en situaciones reales. Hay profundidad, también... Una historia divertida y acogedora sobre las amistades y las relaciones.»Booklist «... Su enloquecida relación, tipo montaña rusa, ofrece un montón de entretenimiento y emociones románticas a lo largo del camino.»Publishers Weekly «¿Pueden un chico y una chica ser amigos, pero sólo amigos? Esta es la pregunta que da origen a esta deliciosa y encantadora comedia romántica. Los lectores devorarán cada capítulo, narrados de forma alterna por Macallan y Levi. Elizabeth Eulberg cumple así su promesa de crear una historia que deja a todos realmente satisfechos.»Children's Literature
