Teaching celebrity kids should be an awesome job, so why does it feel like a nightmare? Avalon took a solemn oath: starve to death before resorting to teaching. After all, she’s a witch and they have standards. But when faced with reality and a zero balance in her bank account due to her lack of conjuring skills, she takes advantage of her best friend’s Beverly Hills connections and lands a job at the Woodbridge Academy, teaching art to spoiled children of celebrities. Avalon discovers a world she's only read about at the checkout stand. Hollywood trophy wives, A-list actors, and even Mr. Sexist Man Alive three years running. The students prove not nearly as glamorous and almost impossible to teach as they sit texting their agents and using the art supplies to apply fake tattoos. Avalon can't use her powers, or else she'll turn her spoiled rotten students into toads. Already at her magical wits end, life only becomes more complicated when Mr. Sexiest Man Alive becomes her confidant, the Headmaster takes interest in her, and one of the students becomes obsessed with her. To top it off there's a severe threat to her coven from the dark elves. Can Avalon keep her witch sanity and her magic a secret, or will she blow everything and lose her job and be stripped of her witch powers?

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER “It’s never quite the book you think it is. It’s better.” —Dwight Garner, The New York Times From John Darnielle, the New York Times bestselling author and the singer-songwriter of the Mountain Goats, comes an epic, gripping novel about murder, truth, and the dangers of storytelling. Gage Chandler is descended from kings. That’s what his mother always told him. Years later, he is a true crime writer, with one grisly success—and a movie adaptation—to his name, along with a series of subsequent less notable efforts. But now he is being offered the chance for the big break: to move into the house where a pair of briefly notorious murders occurred, apparently the work of disaffected teens during the Satanic Panic of the 1980s. Chandler finds himself in Milpitas, California, a small town whose name rings a bell––his closest childhood friend lived there, once upon a time. He begins his research with diligence and enthusiasm, but soon the story leads him into a puzzle he never expected—back into his own work and what it means, back to the very core of what he does and who he is. Devil House is John Darnielle’s most ambitious work yet, a book that blurs the line between fact and fiction, that combines daring formal experimentation with a spellbinding tale of crime, writing, memory, and artistic obsession.

Never before has so much popular culture been produced about what it means to be a girl in today's society. From the first appearance of Nancy Drew in 1930, to Seventeen magazine in 1944 to the emergence of Bratz dolls in 2001, girl culture has been increasingly linked to popular culture and an escalating of commodities directed towards girls of all ages. Editors Claudia A. Mitchell and Jacqueline Reid-Walsh investigate the increasingly complex relationships, struggles, obsessions, and idols of American tween and teen girls who are growing up faster today than ever before. From pre-school to high school and beyond, Girl Culture tackles numerous hot-button issues, including the recent barrage of advertising geared toward very young girls emphasizing sexuality and extreme thinness. Nothing is off-limits: body image, peer pressure, cliques, gangs, and plastic surgery are among the over 250 in-depth entries highlighted. Comprehensive in its coverage of the twenty and twenty-first century trendsetters, fashion, literature, film, in-group rituals and hot-button issues that shape—and are shaped by—girl culture, this two-volume resource offers a wealth of information to help students, educators, and interested readers better understand the ongoing interplay between girls and mainstream culture.
