Do you know about Sync? Teens aged 13+  can get free audiobook downloads starting now through July 1. Each week two new audiobooks will be available for download. This week is The 57 Bus Dashka Slater and Monday’s Not Coming by Tiffany D. Jackson.

The 57 Bus is a true story about the fateful day two very different teens meet on one city bus. This book discusses a lot of issues such as the criminal justice system, racism, and gender identity all while presenting a riveting story. Monday's Not Coming is a novel about two friends and the lengths one will go to look for the other. When Monday doesn't show up for school, her best friend Claudia seems to be the only person who cares. Teachers, her parents, even their other friends don't want to talk about Monday. Since no one else is going to, the only option is for Claudia to find Monday herself.
