As different as we are around the world, we all still struggle growing up with the themes of justice, sexuality, ambition, love, identity, and self-esteem among others.  This month's selection of new titles for teens in the collection highlights these common life themes through many different perspectives.  Whoever or wherever you are, there are other people who are feeling the same things you do.
