Tricks
'When all choice is taken from you, life becomes a game of survival.' Five teenagers from different parts of the country. Three girls. Two guys. Four straight. One gay. Some rich. Some poor. Some from great families. Some with no one at all. All living their lives as best they can, but all searching. What they don't expect, though, is all that can happen when those powerful little words 'I love you' are said for all the wrong reasons. Five moving stories remain separate at first, then interweave to tell a larger, powerful story--a story about making choices, taking leaps of faith, falling down, and growing up. A story about kids figuring out what sex and love are about, at all costs, while asking themselves, 'Can I ever feel okay about myself?' A brilliant achievement from New York Times bestselling author Ellen Hopkins. Tricks is a book that turns you on and repels you at the same time. Just like so much of life.

The Secret Life of LEGO Bricks
Building the ordinary into the extraordinary brick by brick. This first official book for Adult Fans of LEGO takes the reader on a visually stunning journey from the very earliest hollow bricks to the complex shapes and building techniques of today. LEGO bricks are design icons and marvels of engineering. Virtually unchanged for over fifty years, the brick is still at the very centre of LEGO's ethos: each brick connects to every other brick, allowing the construction of almost anything you can imagine. LEGO minifigures may be the friendly faces of the LEGO world, but bricks in all their different shapes and forms are its very foundation. The Secret Life of LEGO Bricks explores the brick's rich history in full colour and unparalleled detail. Granted unprecedented access by the LEGO Group, Daniel Konstantski has interviewed design masters, element testers and the so-called 'rock stars', the set designers, to reveal for the first time how and why new LEGO bricks are made. This is the
