The worst thing : a novel / by Gaskin, Nora,1951-author.(CARDINAL)610120;
"Albert Darwin operates outside of society's norms, but so does his nemesis, Kellah Mace. If the FBI can't catch him, can she?" -- Amazon.com (viewed August 8, 2018)"When Kellah Mace's parents are killed in an accident--when Kellah is fifteen years old--she overhears someone say, "She'll go through life knowing the worst thing has already happened." Numb from loss and grief, Kellah takes these words to mean she need fear nothing. Only one thing can hurt her again: the loss of someone else she loves. The Worst Thing begins with the intense friendship of Kellah and Angel, forged on the window ledge outside of their rooms at boarding school--and in the mirror during a hair-cut makeover. After high school, these intrepid young women move to an apartment in the city. Angel jumps into a modeling career and her allure is not lost on the world--she's suddenly, it seems, everywhere. While Angel is at late night parties and photo shoots, Kellah finds the college library her refuge, until Albert shows up. Albert Darwin, called Ape by acquaintances, has a story of his own. He was a frightened little boy, grown up to be a desperate man. As he becomes a computer repairman, he muses, how stupid people think the worst thing might happen when they hit their computer reset button. Living off the grid, often invisible, often lurking on the Internet, Albert's single-mindedness brings new meaning to "the worst thing." With fascinating contemporary realism, Gaskin's novel The Worst Thing turns commonplace objects from young lives--selfies, cellphones, Google maps, glossy magazines, vintage fashion, haircuts, and ponytails--into elements of suspense." -- Fearrington Village website: https://www.fearrington.com/event/nora-gaskin-worst-thing/ (viewed August 8, 2018)

Teen incarceration : from cell bars to ankle bracelets / by Jones, Patrick,1946-author.(CARDINAL)494858;
Grade 9 to 12.Includes bibliographical references (pages 109-116) and index.In the United States, the conversation about teen incarceration has moved from one extreme to another. For centuries, execution of juvenile offenders was legal. By the twenty-first century, the US Supreme Court had moved closer to banning all executions of minors, regardless of the severity of the crime. Since the 1990s, the US juvenile justice system has moved away from harsh punishment and toward alternative evidence-based models that include education, skills building, and therapy. --1260LAccelerated Reader AR

Offending women : female lawbreakers and the criminal justice system / by Worrall, Anne.(CARDINAL)185581;
Includes bibliographical references and index.1. Theorizing Women's Experiences -- 2. Rules and Authority -- 3. Not Mad Enough, Not Bad Enough: Fifteen Female Lawbreakers -- 4. Invisible Women? -- 5. Guilty Women? -- 6. Treatable Women? -- 7. Manageable Women? -- 8. Listening to Women -- A Footnote? -- 9. Women Offenders Or Offending Women? -- Appendix: researching women -- Notes.Female offenders experience very different treatment from male offenders at the hands of the courts and welfare agencies. In Offending Women, former probation officer Anne Worrall draws on detailed empirical research to examine why this is, how the situation is perpetuated, and what the implications are for women. The author looks at the wholly inadequate categorizations applied to women who offend and the inappropriate solutions offered to their ill-defined problems. In acknowledging the State's powerlessness to categorize them, Worrall builds up a fascinating concept of the 'nondescriptiveness' of certain women offenders. By defying description they are largely neglected by (and elude the control of) professional expertise. The author then examines the relevance of the concept to a broader sociology of women's experiences. Offending Women provides an interesting and useful theoretical analysis of the discourse surrounding women's deviancy. Based on interviews with probation officers, magistrates, solicitors, psychiatrists, and female lawbreakers themselves, the book will be essential reading for practitioners in the field as well as academics in criminology and women's studies.1410L
