Summary
The year is 1969 and, as Dylan once sang, "there was music in the cafes at night and revolution in the air." Leading both the musical and revolutionary fronts is Enjolras, an empowered and idealistic journalism major attending Columbia University. As he makes his way around the local countercultural circuits, he can't seem to shake off the attention of Grantaire, a cynical drifter with a history of vices and instigation.

Summary
Hoseok Jung had three rules about living as a Korean-American in 1943 Los Angeles:
1.) Only speak Korean in whispers when you’re in public
2.) Don’t draw attention to yourself. Keep a low profile
3.) Only wear clothes that you bought in the USAWhile these rules were surely helpful when it came to assimilating in an ever xenophobic society, they didn’t benefit the individual in any other parts of their life. So when Hoseok is faced with the impending anxiety of the draft, and develops a crush on his best friend, he isn’t sure how to handle such feelings.
Hoseok is forced to break out of his safe, naive bubble that he’s always known so that he can grow up and learn that this world isn’t as perfect as a play on Broadway is.

Summary
Rey's choice to join the war effort is the easiest one she's ever made. Ben's choice to join the war effort isn't his own.
She thought she’d be fine with joining the front lines, but not this soon. She’s never done more than put salve and a bandage on a man, or check their ears for an infection. She realizes all too quickly she’ll be asking dozens of men to undress so she can check every mole, sore, and scratch on their body and sending them off to risk their lives.
She’ll be the x that marks the spot on every boy’s application that allows them to die for their country.
When she hands Ben back his folder, there’s a bright, red “approved” stamped across the clean manilla. “Thank you for your service, Ben.”
“Thank you,” he says. He looks at her name tag, and smiles a little, “Rey. I’ll see you around.”
The odds of Rey seeing Ben Solo again are not in her favor.
She shakes his hand, and she believes him.

Out of all the drafts he’d thought he’d be forced to complete, the one for war wasn’t high on the list. Henry dropped the notice on his kitchen table with shaky hands. Three weeks. He’d have three weeks before he’d be shipped overseas to fight the goddamn Germans.

Summary
“For our first pick,” the GM says, and stretches out the words like he’s stretching the audience’s patience. It’s not like there’s any question as to who’s going first, anyway. “The Las Vegas Aces are proud to select, from the Rimouski Oceanic…”
And oh, my God, will this man just hurry up already? The suspense, or lack thereof, is killing Kent. Slowly. Very, very slowly. He might die of old age before the guy finishes.
“Kent Parson.”
Wait, what?

Summary
Pony memorized all of his friends’ and family’s draft numbers the day they were broadcast on December 1, 1969. The next day, he scoured the paper for the numbers corresponding to his, Darry’s, Soda’s, Steve’s, and Two-Bit’s birthdays. And for curiosity’s sake, even though four and a half years had passed since Johnny and Dally’s deaths, he looked for theirs, too.
The system had been explained. The lottery numbers corresponded to any possible birthday. Those associated with the numbers 1-366. Those from the ages of 19 to 26 with the numbers 1-195 were likely to be called up throughout the year. Lowest first.
Panic raced through Pony’s chest as he checked every birthday methodically, growing calmer with each number in the 200s or 300s. All of them did.
All of them, except for his.
Eighty-three.
