She can\u2019t imagine how waiting tables at a 24-hour pancake diner and moving in with too many weird roommates could possibly change that. And there\u2019s certainly no chance of her subway commute being anything more than a daily trudge through boredom and electrical failures.<\/p>\n<p>But then, there\u2019s this gorgeous girl on the train.<\/p>\n<p>Jane. Dazzling, charming, mysterious, impossible Jane. Jane with her rough edges and swoopy hair and soft smile, showing up in a leather jacket to save August\u2019s day when she needed it most. August\u2019s subway crush becomes the best part of her day, but pretty soon, she discovers there\u2019s one big problem: Jane doesn\u2019t just look like an old school punk rocker. She\u2019s literally displaced in time from the 1970s, and August is going to have to use everything she tried to leave in her own past to help her. Maybe it\u2019s time to start believing in some things, after all.&#8221;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/danvers.noblenet.org\/eg\/opac\/record\/4706304?locg=1\">The Other Black Girl<\/a> &#8211; Zakiya Dalila Harris<\/strong><br \/>\n&#8220;Twenty-six-year-old editorial assistant Nella Rogers is tired of being the only Black employee at Wagner Books. Fed up with the isolation and microaggressions, she\u2019s thrilled when Harlem-born and bred Hazel starts working in the cubicle beside hers. They\u2019ve only just started comparing natural hair care regimens, though, when a string of uncomfortable events elevates Hazel to Office Darling, and Nella is left in the dust.<\/p>\n<p>Then the notes begin to appear on Nella\u2019s desk: LEAVE WAGNER. NOW.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s hard to believe Hazel is behind these hostile messages. But as Nella starts to spiral and obsess over the sinister forces at play, she soon realizes that there\u2019s a lot more at stake than just her career.&#8221;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/danvers.noblenet.org\/eg\/opac\/record\/4756789?locg=1\">The Rehearsals<\/a> &#8211; Annette Christie<\/strong><br \/>\n&#8220;Megan Givens and Tom Prescott are heading into what is supposed to be their magical wedding weekend on beautiful San Juan Island.
