Its pastel color pales in comparison against the vivid and chaotic front covers of Divergent, The Maze Runner, and Shatter Me. The things I was looking for were across the dystopian kind of books and it kind of just stood out. I told myself I won’t buy any books in 2017, but one day, when I went to National Bookstore to look for crafting/scrapbook items. It’s more important than reading the blurb because I wouldn’t pay attention if the book didn’t call me. Here’s the story on how I got my hands on this. People come to Italy for love and gelato, someone tells her, but sometimes they discover much more. It’s a secret that will change everything she knew about her mother, her father-and even herself. A world that inspires Lina, along with the ever-so-charming Ren, to follow in her mother’s footsteps and unearth a secret that has been kept for far too long. Suddenly Lina’s uncovering a magical world of secret romances, art, and hidden bakeries. But what kind of father isn’t around for sixteen years? All Lina wants to do is get back home.īut then she is given a journal that her mom had kept when she lived in Italy. She’s only there because it was her mother’s dying wish that she get to know her father. Lina is spending the summer in Tuscany, but she isn’t in the mood for Italy’s famous sunshine and fairy-tale landscape.

Her books have since sold more than twelve million copies and are published in thirty-seven languages. Maas first published the Throne of Glass stories online on FictionPress before they were picked up and published by Bloomsbury after gaining popularity. I love that Maas is another best-selling author who first found a following online by self-publishing her stories. The Throne of Glass series is actually a Cinderella-inspired fantasy with a strong female protagonist. She is known for her young adult fantasy series that combine fantasy, adventure, and romance. In addition to this series, Maas is also well known for her A Court of Thorns and Roses series and the Crescent City series. Maas is the author of the Throne of Glass series.

Like many debut authors writing a second book, Reintgen said his first draft was not successful. Internally, Emmett shifts from sole survival mode to a more cooperative “shoulder to shoulder” outlook, enriching himself and readers’ experiences. Emmett, the main character, now battles strange beasts, the confusion of indigenous structures and Babel’s oppressive manipulations.

It doesn't necessarily have to be a movie or a play it can be anything. Bonus points if the other characters, the ones so enthusiastic to see it in the first place, end up hating it. Nevertheless, they're dragged to the event anyway, and lo and behold, they love it! In fact, most of the time, they'll become the biggest fan of whatever it is that they didn't want to see. However, there's one character who thinks - no, knows - that they are just going to absolutely hate it, despite - or perhaps because of - everyone else's enthusiasm. Whatever it is, the characters are all going to rush out to see it, perhaps on opening day. Or maybe it's just a big blockbuster movie. The circus is in town! Or perhaps just the big Broadway play that everyone's been talking about recently. 6/25/2023 0 Comments Warm up ve schwab“Two hundred ninety-seven,” he said at last, because it had all started there in the snow. He didn’t know how to choose the right number. “How long has it been?” she asked casually, as if they weren’t both counting. Jess turned the temperature down and came to him, resting her elbows on the kitchen counter between them. The words felt more solid the second time. Now her eyes brightened with a kind of guarded hope. She’d pleaded with him for weeks-months-to leave the house, before finally giving up. “Jesus, David,” she said, dropping the bags on the counter, “it’s like an oven in here.” He stood there until the coffee went cold, and he was still standing there when Jess came in, arms full of groceries. He wasn’t quite sure when he made it, somewhere between turning on the shower and stepping in, perhaps, or pouring the milk and adding the cereal, or maybe a dozen tiny decisions had added up like letters until they finally made a word, a phrase, a sentence.Įither way, he’d made the decision, and now he stood very still at the kitchen counter, holding his choice in his hands with his coffee, afraid that if he moved, his resolve would crumble. 293 days since he locked himself in the house that had been his and then theirs and was now his again. 6/25/2023 0 Comments The know it all by aj jacobsMy Life as an Experiment is about exactly what it sounds like, and It’s All Relative aimed to connect all of humanity in one family tree.
