Never Let Me Go is the true story of Nicole Lowe, a teenage runaway who lived on the streets from the ages of thirteen to sixteen. As a member of a gothic cult in the 1990s, Lowe survived homelessness, drug abuse, physical violence, and sexual assault. The story of her rise from the streets of Salt Lake City to her eventual position as Utah Assistant Attorney General in the Child Protection Division stands as a towering inspiration for troubled youth, and a bold testament to the tenacity of the human spirit. “Never Let Me Go is a brief trip into the mind of a headstrong runaway who by all accounts has slipped away—maybe too far for redemption. But Lowe’s memoir shows that young people who’ve gone astray don’t have to change who they are to change the direction their life is going. Throughout the book, Lowe seamlessly transitions between detailed accounts of her own hardships, and the hardships that, as an adult, she would eventually help others to overcome.” – Whittney Evans (KUER Radio) “A fascinating look at why a young woman with a safe home would choose to be homeless. The pain, confusion and hopelessness Nicole Lowe describes, drawing from her adolescent journals and poems, is searing and raw. Writing this book took courage. Juxtaposing the choices she made as a teenager with the choices made by people she encounters in the child protection division offers a stark illustration of how badly things can go wrong for some kids, and how the right support and motivation can make all the difference for others. This would be an important work for anyone who knows a teenager prone to depression, drug use, isolation or suicide.” – Julie Rose (BYU Radio)

From the Booker Prize-winning author of The Remains of the Day and When We Were Orphans, comes an unforgettable edge-of-your-seat mystery that is at once heartbreakingly tender and morally courageous about what it means to be human.Hailsham seems like a pleasant English boarding school, far from the influences of the city. Its students are well tended and supported, trained in art and literature, and become just the sort of people the world wants them to be. But, curiously, they are taught nothing of the outside world and are allowed little contact with it.Within the grounds of Hailsham, Kathy grows from schoolgirl to young woman, but it’s only when she and her friends Ruth and Tommy leave the safe grounds of the school (as they always knew they would) that they realize the full truth of what Hailsham is.Never Let Me Go breaks through the boundaries of the literary novel. It is a gripping mystery, a beautiful love story, and also a scathing critique of human arrogance and a moral examination of how we treat the vulnerable and different in our society. In exploring the themes of memory and the impact of the past, Ishiguro takes on the idea of a possible future to create his most moving and powerful book to date.From the Hardcover edition.

We were everything to each other, once. Now we're basically strangers. The most I get from Bradley, as we pass in the hall, is a glare or a shove against the lockers. The problem is that I don't mind. I'd do anything, be anything and give anything, to be with him. Even if he is arrogant, crass, and the sexiest man in school. He's also dominant. Over me. Only me. And I love it. I was waiting for graduation. Until we'd left school and the constant rules, the judgments and gossip. I was waiting until I had the guts to ask Bradley to be my Dom for real. Forever. I just never expected him to make the first move. Warning: be prepared for no explicit content, teen drama, snark galore, and a whole lot of tension between strong Dom/sub personalities. These boys know who they are and they aren't about to hide it.
