If It Makes You Happy by Claire KannSummary: Winnie is living her best fat girl life and is on her way to the best place on earth. No, not Disneyland--her Granny's diner, Goldeen's, in the small town of Misty Haven. While there, she works in her fabulous 50's inspired uniform, twirling around the diner floor and earning an obscene amount of tips. With her family and ungirlfriend at her side, 
she has everything she needs for one last perfect summer before starting college in the fall....until she becomes Misty Haven's Summer Queen in a highly anticipated matchmaking tradition that she wants absolutely nothing to do with.
Middle Grade Pick
The Thing I'm Most Afraid Of by Kristin Levine
Summary: Most twelve-year-olds would be excited to fly to Austria to see their dad for the summer but then Becca is not most twelve-year-olds. Suffering from severe anxiety, she fears that the metal detectors at the airport will give her cancer and the long international flight will leave her with blood clots. Routines and plans help Becca cope but living in a new country is full of the unexpected--including Becca's companions for the summer. Like Sara, a nineteen-year-old Bosnian refugee. As Becca explores Vienna and becomes close to new friends, she soon learns she is not alone in her fears. What matters most is what you do when faced with them.
