<p>My Mechanical Romance</p>

<p>Opposites attract in this battle-robot-building YA romance from the NYT best-selling author of The Atlas Six.</p>

<p>“It’s rom-com perfection.”—Adiba Jaigirdar</p>

<p>Bel would rather die than think about the future. College apps? You’re funny. Extracurriculars? Not a chance. But when she accidentally reveals a talent for engineering at school, she’s basically forced into joining the robotics club. Even worse? All the boys ignore Bel—and Neelam, the only other girl on the team, doesn’t seem to like her either.</p>

<p>Enter Mateo Luna, captain of the club, who recognizes Bel as a potential asset—until they start butting heads. Bel doesn’t care about Nationals, while Teo cares too much. But as the nights of after-school work grow longer and longer, Bel and Teo realize they’ve made more than just a combat-ready robot for the championship: they’ve made each other and the team better. Because girls do belong in STEM.</p>

<p>In her YA debut, Alexene Farol Follmuth, author of The Atlas Six (under the penname Olivie Blake), explores both the challenges girls of color face in STEM and the vulnerability of first love with unfailing wit and honesty. With an adorable, opposites-attract romance at its center and lines that beg to be read aloud, My Mechanical Romance is swoonworthy perfection.</p>

grit: why passion and persistence are the secrets to success

grit: why passion and persistence are the secrets to success

<p>Grit: Why Passion And Persistence Are The Secrets To Success</p>

<p>Talent is overrated - learn what truly makes you succeed</p>

<p>Angela Duckworth’s seminal work on why passion and perseverance matter more than anything</p>

<p>Why do naturally talented people frequently fail to reach their potential while other far less gifted individuals go on to achieve amazing things? The secret to outstanding achievement is not talent, but a passionate persistence. In other words, grit.</p>

<p>MacArthur Genius Award-winning psychologist Angela Duckworth shares fascinating new revelations about who succeeds in life and why. Based on her cutting-edge research, Duckworth shows how many people achieve remarkable things not just by relying on innate natural talent, but by practising what she calls grit. She then offers a Grit Formula to help anyone to become more gritty, focusing on six key factors: hope, effort, precision, passion, ritual and prioritisation. She reveals:</p>

<p>- Why people who test high for talent often fail to achieve their potential, and why people who do not test high for talent often "overachieve" what others expect them to do

- How grit can be learned, whatever your IQ or circumstances

- Why stubbornness is a key characteristic of gritty people

- When to be stubborn and when giving up is the grittiest thing you can do

- How gritty people found their passion, and you can find yours

- How gritty experts practise, and how you can do the same in your own life

- What the people who care about you can do to boost your grit when you need it most

- How grit is cultivated in the highest-performing sports teams, companies and schools</p>

<p>Leaping past clichés such as 'success is all about hard work', Grit offers a fresh and motivating way to climb to heights far beyond what natural talent would predict.</p>
