In his twisty, gritty, profoundly moving New York Times bestselling-debut--also called "mandatory reading" and selected as an Editors' Choice by the New York Times--Adam Silvera brings to life a charged, dangerous near-future summer in the Bronx. In the months after his father's suicide, it's been tough for sixteen-year-old Aaron Soto to find happiness again--but he's still gunning for it. With the support of his girlfriend Genevieve and his overworked mom, he's slowly remembering what that might feel like. But grief and the smile-shaped scar on his wrist prevent him from forgetting completely. When Genevieve leaves for a couple of weeks, Aaron spends all his time hanging out with this new guy, Thomas. Aaron's crew notices, and they're not exactly thrilled. But Aaron can't deny the happiness Thomas brings or how Thomas makes him feel safe from himself, despite the tensions their friendship is stirring with his girlfriend and friends. Since Aaron can't stay away from Thomas or turn off his newfound feelings for him, he considers turning to the Leteo Institute's revolutionary memory-alteration procedure to straighten himself out, even if it means forgetting who he truly is. Why does happiness have to be so hard? "Silvera managed to leave me smiling after totally breaking my heart. Unforgettable." --Becky Albertalli, author of Simon vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda "Adam Silvera explores the inner workings of a painful world and he delivers this with heartfelt honesty and a courageous, confident hand . . . A mesmerizing, unforgettable tour de force." --John Corey Whaley, National Book Award finalist and author of Where Things Come Back and Noggin From the Hardcover edition

Critically acclaimed and bestselling authors Becky Albertalli and Adam Silvera combine their talents in this smart, funny, heartfelt collaboration about two very different boys who can't decide if the universe is pushing them together—or pulling them apart. ARTHUR is only in New York for the summer, but if Broadway has taught him anything, it's that the universe can deliver a showstopping romance when you least expect it. BEN thinks the universe needs to mind its business. If the universe had his back, he wouldn't be on his way to the post office carrying a box of his ex-boyfriend's things. But when Arthur and Ben meet-cute at the post office, what exactly does the universe have in store for them . . . ? Maybe nothing. After all, they get separated. Maybe everything. After all, they get reunited. But what if they can't nail a first date even after three do-overs? What if Arthur tries too hard to make it work and Ben doesn't try hard enough? What if life really isn't like a Broadway play? But what if it is? What if it's us?

Balancing epic and intensely personal stakes, bestselling author Adam Silvera's Infinity Son is a gritty, fast-paced adventure about two brothers caught up in a magical war generations in the making. Growing up in New York, brothers Emil and Brighton always idolized the Spell Walkers-a vigilante group sworn to rid the world of specters. While the Spell Walkers and other celestials are born with powers, specters take them, violently stealing the essence of endangered magical creatures. Brighton wishes he had a power so he could join the fray. Emil just wants the fighting to stop. The cycle of violence has taken a toll, making it harder for anyone with a power to live peacefully and openly. In this climate of fear, a gang of specters has been growing bolder by the day. Then, in a brawl after a protest, Emil manifests a power of his own-one that puts him right at the heart of the conflict and sets him up to be the heroic Spell Walker Brighton always wanted to be. Brotherhood, love, and loyalty will be put to the test, and no one will escape the fight unscathed.

A tizenhat éves Aaron Soto igyekszik újra magára találni egy családi tragédiát követő nyáron. A barátnője, Genevieve segítségével lassanként emlékezni kezd, milyen lehet a boldogság, ám amint összebarátkozik Thomasszal, minden összezavarodik, amit a múltjáról és a jövőjéről gondolt. Aaron és Thomas egyre közelebb kerülnek egymáshoz, és Aaron önmaga előtt sem tagadhatja le többé az érzelmeit. A Leteo Intézet memóriatörlési eljárása lehet a megoldás, hogy újra a régi legyen. Ám ezzel együtt az igazi önmagát is elveszítheti.

Arthur trávi prázdniny v New Yorku a práve Broadway ho naučil, že vesmír vás môže prekvapiť nezabudnuteľnou romancou vtedy, keď to najmenej čakáte. Ben je presvedčený o tom, že vesmír sa nemá čo starať do jeho života. Ak by mu totiž kryl chrbát, určite by teraz nesmeroval na poštu, aby odoslal balík s vecami po bývalom priateľovi. Môžeme len hádať, čo si nevyspytateľný vesmír na nich oboch prichystal, keď sa rozhodol skrížiť im cesty práve na pošte. Čo ak nič? A ich životy sa uberú rôznymi smermi. Čo ak všetko? A ich príbeh čaká šťastný koniec. Čo ak?

A New York Times-sikerlista első helyét meghódító, Mindketten meghalnak a végén előzménytörténetében hét évet ugrunk vissza az időben, és jelen lehetünk a Halál-Hírek első hívásánál. Ma éjjel kezd élesben a Halál-Hírek, így mindenkit ugyanaz a kérdés foglalkoztat: tényleg meg tudják jósolni, hogy valaki meg fog halni, vagy csak egy aprólékosan kitervelt átverés az egész? Orion Pagan évek óta várja, mikor közlik vele, hogy meg fog halni. Komoly szívbetegséggel él, és azért iratkozott fel a Halál-Híreknél, hogy tudja, mire számítson. Valentino Prince New Yorkban akarja újrakezdeni az életét. Hosszú, ígéretes jövő vár rá, és csak azt követően regisztrált a Halál-Híreknél, hogy az ikertestvére kis híján odaveszett egy autóbalesetben. Orion és Valentino a Times Square-en akadnak össze, és azonnal érzik, hogy közük van egymáshoz. Ám a legelső Végnapi hívások örökre megváltoztatják az életüket - egyiküket felhívják, míg a másikat nem. Noha azt egyik fiú sem tudja, miként végződik majd számukra ez a nap, abban biztosak, hogy együtt akarják tölteni... még ha utána keserves is lesz a búcsú. Az elismert író, Adam Silvera rá jellemző keserédes stílusban mesél arról, milyen óriási hatással vannak egymásra az emberek, és újra bebizonyítja, hogy mindig érdemes kihasználni életünk minden pillanatát.

Keď však narazí na Bena v objatí záhadného chalana, začne uvažovať, či jeho city k Benovi naozaj vyprchali. Akokoľvek veľmi sa obaja snažia zamerať na budúcnosť, v ktorej sa ich cesty uberajú rôznymi smermi, v prítomnosti na seba ustavične narážajú. Núti ich vesmír zamyslieť sa, či vážne nepatria k sebe? Možno nie. Koniec koncov, prvý raz to nevyšlo. Možno áno. Koniec koncov, iskry stále lietajú. Občas to skrátka treba risknúť.
