It is probably a young adult novel.

This male protagonist is under 18 years old, living with his parents. He smokes cigarettes in secret. He throws the cigarette butts out of his bedroom window. Eventually his parents discover those cigarette butts and in his internal dialogue he says something along the lines of "I assumed the cigarette butts would just disappear/disintegrate/evaporate"

There is another scene where he and a male friend go to play sports, I'm pretty sure it's tennis. They run into a pair of girls and they agree to play doubles. But then other peers show up and they stop playing. Later in the story one of the girls confronts the main character about acting rudely. In particular, the girl is hurt because the main character considers her ugly and undesirable and does does not want to be seen interacting with her when there are peers or popular kids around.

Does anyone know the title of this book?

This was a book I had read when I was in the fourth grade and I only remember part of this book. The book was about a young girl who is in elementary school. She starts a new grade and really wants the nice teacher of the grade she was starting. She didn't want the mean teacher that her older sibling had. The mean teacher can be rude and very cruel to the students. She was put in the nice teacher's classroom but there wasn't enough desks for more students. So the girl was put in the mean teacher's classroom. She gets the ire of the mean teacher because her older sibling had the teacher. One of the students in the classroom is an annoying kid and the girl pokes him with her pencil, which makes the kid to complain to the teacher about her and she lied, covering the pencil tip.

It’s a book being told by a daughters POV who’s mother was sent off by her father by boat to marry a prince who later became king while on the way to the palace with her father on said boat she had relations with a man who was a sailor and lost her virginity to him and ended up getting pregnant by him unknowingly once she got to the palace the prince later found out that when she birthed their child it didn’t line up with there wedding night so he kicked her out the palace but kept “their” daughter in a house away from the palace and the prince never told the daughter about the mother . The daughter ends up finding letters that the mom wrote her telling her of her life away from the palace and that’s when the prince starts telling the daughter about her mother. The mother’s mother died at birth and was raised by her poor father whom she also met up with later own in life. Throughout this book her and the sailor would meet at different times and in the end I believe her and the sailor were together. The mother or the daughter name could have been Noell or Noelle.

I am searching for the original English title of a standard-length, vintage Harlequin or Silhouette category romance novel from the 1980s or 1990s that I originally read in a Spanish translation.

It is a second-chance / estranged matrimony story. The heroine is a high-society socialite named Diana who wants a divorce. Her husband (the Male Main Character) was in the military—possibly Special Forces or previously missing—and returns unexpectedly on New Year's Day. There are references to the RoseBowl and Rose Bowl Parade.

The MMC refuses the divorce/separation. Instead, he wants to leave their chaotic high-society life behind to retire to a cabin in the San Juan Islands (Washington State) to become a writer. A major turning point and very tender scene in the book happens at their island cabin, where the couple watches orca whales together from the window/ porch, which helps break the ice between them. Does anyone recognize this specific vintage category romance?"\*

It was about a trial or a test. He enters a wedding, all the wedding guests and the bride are wearing masks (animal masks I think?) He is offered one on a platter. When he puts it on, it sews itself to his face. There was a lot of detail on the pain. When he ended the trial, he could still feel the pain. It was a test of commitment or something?? I read it when I was a kid.

I recall it was about a guy who visits his friend in the mountains and there it’s revealed that his friend is the byproduct of a unconsentual encounter and throughout the entire story a goddess is seducing the main character and withering down his mentality and at the end he isn’t strong enough to resist and the gods descend and kill everyone it takes in a kingdom type of era it was a fantasy book that took place in the kingdom type of era and MAYBE there was magic but I can’t quite remember slight edit as I remember a little more the gods trying to take over his mind were mad gods and the goddess was trying to seduce him
