The whole ALMOST SUMMER gang is back to take on the biggest challenge they’ve ever faced: The final year of high school. The penultimate chapter in this four part series features such dramatic events as Matthew refusing to take off his hat for the graduation picture, washing his hair for the first time in forever, and finally asking Naomi out! Otherwise, it's business as usual for Emily, Anthony and Michelle—meaning they’re bored, don't really know what they want out of life, and don't really care either. They're still typical teenagers, and nothing, not even the fact that their lives are about to change forever, is ever going to change that. (immagine)

Death waits... Famed author Titus Caropin is stuck with a bad case of writer's block and keeps pushing back the release date on the seventh book in his best-selling series. He has run out of inspiration, and even karaoke can't seem to bring the old magic back! But when Titus gets a visit from the Grim Reaper, his biggest fan who just wants an autograph (and Volume VII of his fave series), the pressure to finish his latest book becomes unbearable. A wordless meditation on death and the creative process, VII is existential slapstick at its best - showcasing both the fluid style and narrative ingenuity of first-time author Thom, who proves that the right picture can truly be worth a thousand words.

Set in the heart of Trois-Rivières’ world-famous (and perfectly fictitious) Hawaiian district, THE PINEAPPLES OF WRATH follows amateur detective Marie-Plum as she investigates the suspicious death of her next-door neighbour. While the local police believe the former limbo champion was the victim of a fatal piña colada overdose, Marie-Plum is convinced there’s more to the case than meets the eye. A funny, loving tribute to tiki kitsch and old Agatha Christie novels. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

In this unabashed and uncensored personal memoir, author Éloïse Marseille examines her sexual education (and miseducation), from a forbidden first kiss with a female best friend in Catholic school to her exposure to the extremes of online porn, fumbling hookups, and navigating the complexities of lust and love in the modern era… But most importantly of all, the author’s nuanced relationship with her own body, sexuality, and self. A raw, hilarious, and deeply touching book, NAKED: THE CONFESSIONS OF A NORMAL WOMAN makes a powerful case for a sexual politics that is open, demystified, and free of shame. Mature Readers.

A small village in the north of Quebec, Guyenne is run as a cooperative, with 50% of the inhabitants’ paychecks going into a communal pot to develop the colony—hence the village’s nickname of “Little Russia.” Based on the memories of author Francis Desharnais’ grandparents, who lived in Guyenne from 1948 to 1968, this moving graphic novel delves into family history to explore Canada’s rural heritage through the lens of both grassroots socialism and early feminism. An intimate story of epic scale, and the winner of multiple “Best Book” awards, LITTLE RUSSIA is a fascinating foray into an unusual and largely forgotten social experiment.

He's friendly. He's responsible. He can even be funny... Sometimes. But Gary is no Casanova. He could be your co-worker. He could be your neighbor. But could he be your boyfriend? In order for that to happen, he'd have to ask you out—but that's not going to happen any time soon. Because Gary isn't the kind of guy who asks you out. He's the kind of guy who sort of thinks that, maybe, he could possibly think about asking you out... eventually. All that, however, is about to change. Maybe. GARY: KING OF THE PICKUP ARTISTS is a refreshingly honest romantic comedy, charming and cringe-worthy in equal measure! (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

Odette is a hip, young twenty-something with her own place, a steady job at a local bookstore, an adorable pet rabbit, and a burgeoning crush on a cute girl in the neighborhood. But Odette is haunted by something only she can see… A jellyfish. A jellyfish that floats in her eye, blocking her vision. It’s a seemingly minor annoyance… Until one day there are TWO jellyfish. Showcasing stunning and inventive artwork by Boum ("Boumeries"), THE JELLYFISH is a tour-de-force of graphic storytelling, a powerful, occasionally terrifying story of facing the thing that we fear the most, and finding a light to guide us through the darkness. "Not only is THE JELLYFISH one of the most beautiful graphic novels I’ve ever read, it goes straight for the heart and doesn’t let up. Boum is a master of her craft.

A pair of musicians elope to an isolated cabin for a romantic weekend together, knowing they'll soon have to go back to their respective lives away from each other. For the moment, it’s as if time itself had been suspended, as if nothing exists, save for the words of love they whisper to each other and the taste of dry sweat on skin—but something lurks right underneath the surface, in the nameless gap between passion and reason. An atmospheric, introspective look at modern love, sex, and music, FOR AS LONG AS IT RAINS is the winner of multiple awards, including the prestigious Joe Shuster Award. For Mature Readers. "It's in turns playful, erotic, emotionally tense, fractious, and ultimately despairing." —Rob Clough, High-Low (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

Michelle wants to get a job at a day camp so she can hang out with some guy she has a crush on, Matthew is spending more and more time with Mary, and Emily just wants Anthony to leave her alone.

Volume 2 of the ALMOST SUMMER saga brings back all the characters from the previous book for another slice of authentic teenage everyday life in all it’s pain and glory! "Compulsively readable... ALMOST SUMMER just aches with inchoate desire, frustrated dreams, and the endless possibilities of youth." Robert Clough, High-Low (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels
