Book Description
Talia fell under a spell . . . . Jack broke the curse. I was told to beware the accursed spindle, but it was so enchanting, so hypnotic. . . . I was looking for a little adventure the day I ditched my tour group. But finding a comatose town, with a hot-looking chick asleep in it, was so not what I had in mind. I awakened in the same place but in another time—to a stranger's soft kiss. I couldn't help kissing her. Sometimes you just have to kiss someone. I didn't know this would happen. Now I am in dire trouble because my father, the king, says I have brought ruin upon our country. I have no choice but to run away with this commoner! Now I'm stuck with a bratty princess and a trunk full of her jewels. . . . The good news: My parents will freak! Think you have dating issues? Try locking lips with a snoozing stunner who turns out to be 316 years old. Can a kiss transcend all—even time?

Book Description
New York Times bestselling author Rainbow Rowell's epic fantasy, the Simon Snow trilogy, concludes with Any Way the Wind Blows. In Carry On, Simon Snow and his friends realized that everything they thought they understood about the world might be wrong. And in Wayward Son, they wondered whether everything they understood about themselves might be wrong. Now, Simon and Baz and Penelope and Agatha must decide how to move forward. For Simon, that means choosing whether he still wants to be part of the World of Mages — and if he doesn't, what does that mean for his relationship with Baz? Meanwhile Baz is bouncing between two family crises and not finding any time to talk to anyone about his newfound vampire knowledge. Penelope would love to help, but she's smuggled an American Normal into London, and now she isn't sure what to do with him. And Agatha? Well, Agatha Wellbelove has had enough. Any Way the Wind Blows takes the gang back to England, back to Watford, and back to their families for their longest and most emotionally wrenching adventure yet. This book is a finale. It tells secrets and answers questions and lays ghosts to rest. The Simon Snow Trilogy was conceived as a book about Chosen One stories; Any Way the Wind Blows is an ending about endings—about catharsis and closure, and how we choose to move on from the traumas and triumphs that try to define us.

Book Description
We live in a world that has lost its sensitivity. Its need for touch with meaning. Love is now essentially a primitive theme shrouded in many layers of modernity. Likewise, this ancient form of soulful expression we call poetry, ails to find a home in the hearts and mind of the true lover of words, now an increasingly rare phenomenon. This book was conceived with the aim of resuscitating both species; love of writing and simply love. This collection is a timeless portrait of a universal theme. A bold poetic leap that encompasses the differing and comparative types of love.

Book Description
In his second volume of short essays, Gary Czerwinski continues to delight his growing audience of readers with wit and a keen sense of understanding and reverence for both Nature and Human Nature. With his usual gift of the "heart felt," and language that is often "vivid and poetic," Czerwinski celebrates the simple virtues of the seasons, reminds us what politics and America should be about, and makes us laugh at our own foibles as he talks about his own. Here we are introduced to the on-going character of Edna Hill who, in her 70's, loses her husband. Faced with the confusion of sudden loneliness, she struggles to find hope and to remember love in an unfamiliar world she faces alone. Czerwinski lives and works in the lakeside village of Douglas, Michigan. You can visit him at www.cottagesoaps.com.
