September Girls is a stunning coming-of-age novel about first loves, oblivious parents, sibling rivalriesand mermaids. This imaginative and painfully honest book garnered five starred reviews, including one from ALA Booklist that proclaimed it "a rare and lovely novel, deserving of attention from discriminating readers." Whisked away by his father to an unusual beach town in the Outer Banks, Sam finds himself having the summer vacation most guys dream of. He's surrounded by beautiful blonde girls, and, better yet, they all seem inexplicably attracted to him. But there's definitely something strange about the Girls. They only wear flats because heels make their feet bleed. They never go swimming in the water. And they all want something from him. Sam falls for one of the Girls, DeeDee, and begins an unexpected summer romance. But as they get closer, she pulls away without explanation. Sam knows that if he is going to win her back, he'll have to learn the Girls' secret. Bennett Madison, critically acclaimed author of The Blonde of the Joke, brings a mix of lyrical writing, psychologically complex characters, and sardonic humor to this young adult novel. September Girls is perfect for fans of the irreverent wit of Ned Vizzini and the seductive magic of fairy tales retold.

Lacythebookworm Are the scratch and dent books usually in pretty good shape? 8y
JPrecht Yes, please! WOW! Thanks for sharing! 8y
jessberk13 @Lacythebookworm I think I've only ever gotten paperback s&d- they are always good. They say hardcovers could be missing the dust jackets. Everything I've gotten from there (and it's been quite a lot!) has looked brand new. 8y
LauraBrook Aaaah, now I need to spend my money here! 💸💸💸😊 8y
JanuarieTimewalker13 Book outlet is the best!! But I'm on a serious book buying hiatus-at this point I'm thinking at least 6 months. 8y
BekahB Book Outlet is great! I have stuff in my cart but I need to try to remove some items. It's so hard deciding which books to to take out! 😬 8y
AnnieReads Thanks for the heads up! I've never ordered from bookoutlet before. This will be a great time to try it. 8y
Cinfhen Those prices are awesome🙌🏻 8y
pamelac.xo I just placed an order with them last night! 8y
LeahBergen I just did a big order, too (7 or 8 books for Xmas gifts and then about that many for myself for all of my hard work 😂) I also had the $5 coupon. 8y
Suetara I shouldn't be allowed to go on that site unsupervised. 😉 If you have an Ebates account and use their link to enter the book outlet site, you currently will earn 10% back on your purchase. 8y
Jessicav I just ordered stuff, and posted about it, and tried to tag you but litsy couldn't find you. So... thanks for the recommendation! More money, more books. 🤑😍 8y
Yamich49 Ahhhh after ordering some books earlier this week from them, your post may have encouraged me to pick up a few more this morning 😉 Thanks! I think...😆 8y
TheLibrarian Thanks for the info. I just spent too much money but great deals! 8y
GlitteryOtters OOooOoh! Dangerous information to have! My TBR list is full of so many books I don't yet own, and now that I am considering doing the #BirthdayChallenge next year, looks like I will need to find even MORE books...looks like I might have to jump on this offer!! Thank you for sharing!💕 8y
GlitteryOtters So...checking in...Last night before bed I bought 40 books that have been waiting on my TBR list (including 2 cookbooks I really wanted!). I don't know whether to thank or blame you for this...😂😂 I think I'm going to go with thanking you, because the cost, including shipping, averaged exactly $4 per book and that is an AMAZING deal. 8y

Mehso-so

⭐️⭐️⭐️- Recommends for young adult and mermaid-interested. I read this in a day. The prose wasn't great, the characters were meh, and the mystery wasn't exciting. Yet there was still something addictive about this book. Maybe it was the easy-going writing or perhaps the thoughts of the narrator. Nevertheless, I enjoyed it to a 3-star-ish degree.
