A warm and sensitive dual narrator LGBTQ+ story. Stevie is about to start secondary school. She often feels anxious, but feels much better having her two best friends, Chloe and Andrew, by her side. Their new school is filled with excitement, like the LGBTQIA+ club, but also challenges, such as math class.
The biggest challenge of all though comes when Andrew suddenly becomes distant. Andrew isn't quite sure who he is yet. This didn't matter much before, especially when he was hanging out with Stevie and Chloe. Now it seems to matter very much indeed, but he doesn't know how to begin talking about it with his friends, who seem to be much clearer about who they are.

Aspiring journalist Nadia Islam hates that she's missing out on spending Ramadan with her best friend to go to Bangladesh. But the trip unexpectedly puts her reporting skills to the test.

She's there to write a story on the increasing climate change problem in Bangladesh and how people are being affected by it. The more Nadia learns from her khalamoni, the more eager she is to help.
Her brother and cousins try to distract her with a Ramadan competition. She wants to beat them all - of course! - but her aunt needs her too. Can Nadia put aside her competitiveness to beat her brother and cousins to figure out what Ramadan is really all about?
