These days I'm a world famous rockstar, but the girl I left behind? She couldn't care less. At eighteen, I'm way too young to be so jaded. But then again, I've always been old for my age—a side effect of having to fend for myself when my parents bailed and the foster system shipped me from one home to the next. I'd had one friend back in those days, but I said goodbye to Daisy the day I landed my first big gig and left my hometown in the dust. Now I'm being sent back to the town I swore I'd never return to for a charity concert organized by the girl I thought I'd forgotten. One look in Daisy's pretty green eyes—eyes filled with loathing—and I realize she's never really left me. She's always been in my thoughts and in my heart. Unfortunately, the same can't be said for her. She'd written me off years ago, and she's not interested in second chances or new beginnings. She's more than happy to get this concert over with and say goodbye for the second time. For the last time. The problem is...I don't know if I can leave her behind again. Not when she still owns my heart.

My best friend used to be a giant nerd. Now that he's rich and famous, he can have anything he wants. But what if what he wants...is me? Who would have guessed that my nerdy BFF would become an overnight success? Not even Oliver expected the dating app he'd created for a high school coding class to take off the way it had, or for a mega-corporation to acquire it. And as for that whole insta-celebrity situation? Yeah, no one saw that coming. Not that I'm complaining, mind you. Oliver's sudden windfall definitely has its perks, especially for me, his oldest and closest pal. Limos and private jets? Don't mind if I do. But there are downfalls, too. Ones I definitely hadn't seen coming. Like the fact that my dork of a bestie is suddenly in demand with the ladies. Oliver has always been cute, but never cool. And game? Well, the guy just didn't have it. Until now, it seems. Money might not buy love, but it can get you a fresh look. New clothes, new haircut, new glasses...and what do you know? My tall, nerdy BFF is now a hottie, and every girl wants him. If he can have any girl he wants, then why is he kissing me? I swore we would only ever be friends...so I guess the better question is: why don't I want him to stop?

Most people know a nerd when they see one but can't define just what a nerd is.American Nerd: The Story of My People gives us the history of the concept of nerdiness and of the subcultures we consider nerdy. What makes Dr. Frankenstein the archetypal nerd? Where did the modern jock come from? When and how did being a self-described nerd become trendy? As the nerd emerged, vaguely formed, in the nineteenth century, and popped up again and again in college humor journals and sketch comedy, our culture obsessed over the designation. Mixing research and reportage with autobiography, critically acclaimed writer Benjamin Nugent embarks on a fact-finding mission of the most entertaining variety. He seeks the best definition of nerd and illuminates the common ground between nerd subcultures that might seem unrelated: high-school debate team kids and ham radio enthusiasts, medieval reenactors and pro-circuit Halo players. Why do the same people who like to work with computers also enjoy playing Dungeons & Dragons? How are those activities similar? This clever, enlightening book will appeal to the nerd (and antinerd) that lives inside all of us.

An investigation of the evidence for King Arthur based on the earliest written sources rather than later myths and legends. This book differs from the usual Arthur theories in that it favors no particular conjecture simply analyses and clarifies the evidence presenting it all in chronological order. Starting from Roman Britain, the evidence shows how the legend evolved and at what point concepts such as Camelot, Excalibur and Merlin were added. It covers the historical records from the end of Roman Britain using contemporary sources such as they are, from 400-800, including Gallic Chronicles, Gildas and Bede. It details the first written reference to Arthur in the Historia Brittonum c.800 and the later Annales Cambriae in the tenth century showing the evolution of the legend in later Welsh and French stories. While not starting from or aiming at a specific person, the book compares the possibility of Arthur being purely fictional with a historical figure alongside a list of possible suspects. The evidence is presented and the reader is invited to make up their own mind before a discussion of the author’s own assessment. “What impressed me about this book is Sullivan’s passion for this subject and his willingness to go the extra mile to show both sides of the argument . . . It was extremely fascinating to see how he treated this book like a criminal investigation, using different fields of study to figure out the origins of the legend, how it evolved, and whether or not there was a king named Arthur.” —Adventures of a Tudor Nerd

Cat has one week to win back her ex, but it only takes one day with a beach town bad boy to learn that all her well-laid plans are nothing compared to a passionate kiss. Catherine Vaughn has a plan. Of course she does, the type-A student council president always has a plan. But her itinerary for Senior Week doesn't just include fun events for her classmates. She aims to create a magical, romantic moment so her ex-boyfriend will see just how right they are together. It's an excellent plan...except that everything goes wrong. Her perfect plan falls apart spectacularly on her very first day at the beach when she's stranded in the rain and is grudgingly rescued by a British hottie with a bad attitude.

It seems magic, romance, and love don't play by the rules...and they sure as heck don't follow a plan.

This book is available as open access through the Bloomsbury Open Access programme and is available on www.bloomsburycollections.com. Drawing on a wide range of examples from literature, comics, film, television and digital media, Nerd Ecology is the first substantial ecocritical study of nerd culture's engagement with environmental issues. Exploring such works as Star Trek, Tolkien's Lord of the Rings, The Matrix, Joss Whedon's Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Firefly, the fiction of Thomas Pynchon, The Hunger Games, and superhero comics such as Green Lantern and X-Men, Anthony Lioi maps out the development of nerd culture and its intersections with the most fundamental ecocritical themes. In this way Lioi finds in the narratives of unpopular culture - narratives in which marginalised individuals and communities unite to save the planet - the building blocks of a new environmental politics in tune with the concerns of contemporary ecocritical theory and practice.

Not even an heiress is guaranteed the guy of her dreams, but do I really have to get stuck with the one I hate? My media mogul father has a mission for me--get the scoop on Alex, the private, guarded teenage running phenom...or else. He didn't actually say 'or else,' but trust me, it was implied. If my new nonprofit endeavor stands a chance of seeing the light of day, I need to keep my father happy, and that means taking this reporter gig over my high school's winter break. It shouldn't be all that hard. Make nice with the arrogant athlete, ask a few questions...get in, get answers, get out. That might've been the plan except that our first meeting was a tad...epic. It might have involved a kiss. And tears. And a little matter of mistaken identity. No big whoop. Nothing I can't handle, it's just...this interview would be so much easier to ace if my questions didn't keep ending in kisses.
