Pages : 412
Book Description
International Bestseller and #1 LibraryReads Pick Water for Elephants meets The Night Circus in this World War II debut about a magnificent travelling circus, a star-crossed romance, and one girl’s coming-of-age during the darkest of times. “A powerful reminder that to live is not just to survive, but to be seen and known for ourselves.” —Pam Jenoff, author of The Orphan’s Tale When all is lost, how do you find the courage to keep moving forward? 1938. Lena Papadopoulos has never quite found her place within the circus, even as the daughter of the extraordinary headlining illusionist, Theo. Brilliant and curious, Lena—who uses a wheelchair after a childhood bout with polio—yearns for the real-world magic of science and medicine, her mind stronger than the limitations placed on her by society. Then her unconventional life takes an exciting turn when she rescues Alexandre, an orphan with his own secrets and a mysterious past. As World War II escalates around them, their friendship blossoms into something deeper while Alexandre trains as the illusionist’s apprentice. But when Theo and Alexandre are arrested and made to perform in a town for Jews set up by the Nazis, Lena is separated from everything she knows. Forced to make her own way, Lena must confront her doubts and dare to believe in the impossible—herself.

Arya Winters and the Tiramisu of Death
Author: Amita Murray
Publisher: Polis Books
ISBN: 1951709810
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 327
Book Description
"An edgier riff on Agatha Christie. Murray takes common tropes and pierces them with darker realities to great effect."—Oprah Daily Arya Winters is your typical cozy heroine. She lives in a cottage in a small English village, and bakes for a living - well, she specializes in macabre desserts. She has nosy neighbors, who she avoids ruthlessly due to her social anxiety. And she has a keen interest in all things sexy, especially Branwell Beam, the writer next door. When her neighbor Tobias Yards turns up dead after eating poisoned tiramisu (definitely not poisoned when she baked it), no one seems to connect it to Arya's Auntie Meera's recent death. Instead, they blame her excruciatingly average ex-boyfriend—and Tobias’s nephew—and so she takes matters into her own hands. Now all she has to do to uncover the truth is to get over her aversion to Other People. Besides that, it's just a matter of getting beyond some yellow tape, dodging her former BFF Tallulah from secondary school, and getting into Branwell's pants—he seems strangely reluctant. What Arya doesn't realize is that the murderer is dangerous, preying on lonely people who've experienced trauma, and that she might have to do all she can not to become the next victim.

Languages : en
Pages : 415
Book Description
Oh, hi there. Are you an adult, and still like anime? If you like a satire within a serious fiction, then this might be for you. We follow a mortal named, Yosei Tenshi, embarking to a new world as she discovers her identity, her friends, and her purpose throughout her journey in this action-packed, anime-inspired, fantasy. Yosei finds herself in constant danger, with villains and Kaiju taking the planet hostage. To make matters worse, the devils in the Underworld are restless, as they wreak havoc and invade the world of our adventurer. Perilous times await Yosei as she uncovers Hell's unholy plan and the rise of the ever infamous Satan. With the battle between Heaven and Hell in sight, can Yosei protect her world and beyond? Find out next time... in this book, if you read it. Did I mention it had hidden satire? Thus, become indulged and amused in interactive brain teasers as satire is lathered all within. Can you find all hidden meanings and topics within this book while still being immersed in this story-rich epic? *There is mature and graphic material in this novel, such as gore and subjective topics. It's also not as comedic of a satire as one would assume. It's also not that offensive, but... Reader discretion is advised.
