"If You're Not the One" by Farah Naz Rishi
Anisa Shirani is . . . well, perfect. Of course, it's all a front to feed her own praise-obsessed ego. Behind closed doors, she is--some might say--a little slobbish and snobbish, and she works obsessively to maintain her God-given talents. Fate has favored her, but Ani knows better than anyone that fate is made by effort. And effort is a must, especially if Ani is to become a top-notch lawyer with a top-notch education and one day marry Isaac, total heartthrob and eldest son of the richest family in the community. A perfect girl deserves a perfect life, and Ani's perfect life is going exactly the way it should . . . Until Ani's parents announce they're getting divorced. Until Isaac shows all the signs of . . . cheating. Sort of. Until she starts catching feelings for Marlow, an overly friendly weirdo she's hated since the moment she laid eyes on him in class. How can fate be so wrong?

Book of the Week: "Impossible Escape : A True Story of Survival and Heroism in N**i Europe" by Steve Sheinkin

Synopsis:
Childhood friends, Rudolf Vrba and Gerta Sidonová were just teenagers growing up in Slovakia when Adolf Hi**er and the German N**is began invading countries across Europe. While nineteen-year-old Rudi was captured and sent to Auschwitz, Gerta and her family escaped to Hungary where they changed their names and posed as Catholics. With determination and cunning, Rudi managed to stay alive for two years and he and fellow prisoner, twenty-four-year-old Alfred Wexler, plotted their escape. Though they knew it was highly dangerous, the pair risked their lives to tell the world what was going on at Auschwitz by escaping the camp and walking to Slovakia. Meanwhile, N**is closed in on Gerta and her family, and they are eventually arrested and sent to a detention camp. Rudi and Alfred's report, known as the Vrba-Wetzler report, was responsible for saving the lives of over 100,000 Jews and helping to expose the N**i's atrocities to the world.
