If you're sick of the stick-thin and perfectly slim models of society today, Dietland is for you. The funny novel follows Plum Kettle, an over-weight advice journalist who answers fan mail for a teen girls’ website. She’s convinced that her life won’t really start until she saves up enough money for her weight-loss operation — when she’ll finally look like the ‘‘perfect’， woman. But after she gets pulled into a series of adventures with a group of women who live life on their own terms, she begins to reconsider her own opinions of what “beauty” really is.

Orhan’s Inheritance, by Aline Ohanesian

After Orhan’s Turkish grandfather dies, he learns that while he’s taken over his grandfather’s successful business, the house that’s been in his family for generations was not left to him. Instead, it went to an 87-year-old woman who lives in L.A. that no one in his family has ever heard of. To get to the bottom of this, Orhan travels to L.A. to meet with the woman. It’s then that he uncovers the secrets of his family.

If the story of evolution (进化）has always interested you, this book is for you.

Aqeela Asifi, who escaped to Pakistan as a young woman, has spent her life teaching other Afghan refugees (难民）.For her efforts, Ms. Asifi has won the 2015 UNHCR Nansen Refugee award. She also gets $100,000 to help pay for her education projects.

Asifi faced many problems in Afghanistan before she escaped to Pakistan. Resources were limited and education for women was discouraged. However, she persuaded parents to send their daughters to school in a tent at the Kot Chandana refugee village. Since then, Ms. Asifi has guided more than a thousand refugee girls through their primary education. “When 1 began to educate Afghan girls, I could not have imagined that one day it will win me this award. I cannot express my happiness,” she said.

Nearly half school-aged Afghan refugee children don't attend school in Pakistan. Ms. Asifi was a teacher in Kabul when she escaped with her family in 1992. “In Afghanistan I was teaching both boys and girls，’’ she said. “When I left Afghanistan and ended up in this refugee village with my family, I was sad to find out there were no facilities (设施）here, particularly for women and girls.”

In the refugee camp she began teaching a small number of students in her tent. She made teaching materials by hand. Her tent school has led to the opening of several permanent (永久) schools in the village. These schools teach more than one thousand children.

The Afghan teacher hopes more and more children will receive an education in Afghanistan. She hopes her home country becomes better known for higher levels of education, instead of war. “I want my goal to be
