June 21, 2014, marks the fiftieth anniversary of the infamous Neshoba County murders of civil rights workers James Chaney, Michael Schwerner, and Andrew Goodman. And, while it is good to remember and honor the victims of such devastating tragedies, it is also painful-particularly for those personally connected. "Detour Before Midnight" is a unique historical memoir that casts you right in the heart of Mississippi during the Freedom Summer of 1964, rendering the civil rights movement through the passionate eyes of a young African American girl. Bernice Sims was just a teenager in the early 1960s, but she was already a member of the NAACP. She was also one of the last people ever to see Chaney, Schwerner, and Goodman alive. The three men made an unscheduled stop at her family's house on their way to investigate the charred remains of a voter registration site. Bernice begged them to take her with them on what would end up being their last mission. They refused. "Detour Before Midnight" demonstrates one woman's remarkable courage to overcome years of grief and survivor's guilt in order to finally offer her personal tribute to these men.

Ferris Bueller’s Day Off meets Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist in this romp through the city that never sleeps from the New York Times bestselling author of Since You’ve Been Gone. Two girls. One night. Zero phones. Kat and Stevie—best friends, theater kids, polar opposites—have snuck away from the suburbs to spend a night in New York City. They have it all planned out. They’ll see a play, eat at the city’s hottest restaurant, and have the best. Night. Ever. What could go wrong? Well. Kind of a lot? They’re barely off the train before they’re dealing with destroyed phones, family drama, and unexpected Pomeranians. Over the next few hours, they’ll have to grapple with old flames, terrible theater, and unhelpful cab drivers. But there are also cute boys to kiss, parties to crash, dry cleaning to deliver (don’t ask), and the world’s best museum to explore. Over the course of a wild night, both Kat and Stevie will get a wake-up call about their friendship, their choices…and finally discover what they really want for their future. That is, assuming they can make it to Grand Central before the clock strikes midnight.
