Book Description
In the enchanting realm of Loblolly Springs, where ancient magic thrums beneath the surface, a young adventurer named Finn Thornwood embarks on a perilous quest that will test his courage, ingenuity, and the unbreakable bond with his loyal dog, Mystic. When whispers of a legendary black diamond reach Finn's ears, he knows he must seize the opportunity to prove himself. The black diamond, said to possess unimaginable power, lies hidden deep within the treacherous heart of Mycelium Haven—a mystical forest where few dare to venture. Accompanied by the ever-faithful Mystic, Finn sets out to unravel the secrets of the forest and claim the black diamond. But the path ahead is fraught with danger, as they must navigate through a labyrinth of glowing mushrooms, decipher ancient stone structures, and outwit cunning creatures that guard the diamond's location. As Finn and Mystic delve deeper into Mycelium Haven, they begin to uncover a sinister plot that threatens the very balance of nature. Dark forces, long thought vanquished, stir in the shadows, determined to harness the diamond's power for their own nefarious purposes. With time running out and the fate of Loblolly Springs hanging in the balance, Finn must summon every ounce of his wit, bravery, and the unwavering support of Mystic to outmaneuver his foes, secure the black diamond, and protect the realm from an ancient evil reawakened. "Mystic and the Black Diamond" is a thrilling tale of friendship, determination, and the transformative power of believing in oneself. Author Wallace Berry masterfully weaves a rich tapestry of magic, adventure, and heart, inviting readers to embark on an unforgettable journey alongside Finn and Mystic. Prepare to be captivated by the wonders and perils that await in this spellbinding first installment of "The Adventures of Finn Thornwood" series. As the pages turn, readers will find themselves lost in a world where the line between reality and enchantment blurs, and where the true treasure lies not in the diamond itself, but in the unbreakable bond between a boy and his dog.

Pages : 324
Book Description
I found myself caught somewhere between nightmares--bitter flashes of fur and fang, hot breath, full snarls--and hopes and dreams as soft as gossamer, fleeting as sparrow in the snow, impossible to pin. Through it all was the memory of Finn's mouth on mine, the brush of his lips, the shaking of his body as it pressed against me. He was all nerves and quiet, tender desperation. An outcast with a proclivity for poisons, Andesine De Winter longs for a life outside her closed-minded village. But she's drawn to the surrounding forests of Thornwood, and the mysterious white wolf that saved her life as a child. When the wolf reveals himself as the shape-changing Finn, an omega hiding from his former pack, Andesine finds herself in the middle of a conflict that threatens everything she holds dear--her dreams, her family, and the boy she's given her heart to. There is more than one way to lose yourself, and more than one kind of wolf in the woods... CW: This book is suitable for older teens and adults, with some sexual content Praise for "Of Snow and Scarlet": "She's only gone and done it again! A fantastic cast of characters, histories unearthed, revelations, confrontations, a whole lot of banter and a steaming pile of C.H.E.M.I.S.T.R.Y." "I don't think I can put into words how much I loved this book." "If you love a well built relationship, fun characters, beautiful atmosphere and world building that completely immerses you, add this one to you collection now!"

An instant NEW YORK TIMES and USA TODAY BESTSELLER! "I was knocked over by the momentum of an intense psychological thriller that doesn’t let go until the final page. This is a terrific read." – Alafair Burke, New York Times bestselling author *Marie Claire's September Book Club Pick* Rear Window meets Get Out in this gripping thriller from a critically acclaimed and New York Times Notable author, in which the gentrification of a Brooklyn neighborhood takes on a sinister new meaning… Sydney Green is Brooklyn born and raised, but her beloved neighborhood seems to change every time she blinks. Condos are sprouting like weeds, FOR SALE signs are popping up overnight, and the neighbors she’s known all her life are disappearing. To hold onto her community’s past and present, Sydney channels her frustration into a walking tour and finds an unlikely and unwanted assistant in one of the new arrivals to the block—her neighbor Theo. But Sydney and Theo’s deep dive into history quickly becomes a dizzying descent into paranoia and fear. Their neighbors may not have moved to the suburbs after all, and the push to revitalize the community may be more deadly than advertised. When does coincidence become conspiracy? Where do people go when gentrification pushes them out? Can Sydney and Theo trust each other—or themselves—long enough to find out before they too disappear?

Book Description
Originally published to great acclaim in 1976, The American Monument has become one of the most sought-after photography publications of the 20th century. Long out of print, this second edition is once again available again for all to enjoy and own. Published in the same oversized format as the first editionwith exquisite duotone reproductions of the original 213 photographsthe album of post-bound single sheets can easily be disassembled for display. Considered by many, including Friedlander himself, to be one of his most important books, The American Monument has influenced generations of photographers, curators and art historians. The second edition includes the original essay by Eakins Press founder Leslie George Katz along with a new essay by eminent past NYCs Museum of Modern Arts photography curator and Friedlander scholar Peter Galassi, which illuminates the history and continued significance of this iconic artist and this early publication. The deeply influential American curator of photography at MoMA during the 1960s-70s, John Szarkowski (19272007), stated: I am still astonished and heartened by the deep affection of those pictures, by the photographers tolerant equanimity in the face of the facts, by the generosity of spirit, the freedom from pomposity and rhetoric. One might call this work an act of high artistic patriotism, an achievement that might help us reclaim that word from ideologues and expediters. Lee Friedlander is the recipient of three Guggenheim Fellowships as well as a MacArthur Fellowship. He has published more than 50 monographs since 1969, and exhibited extensively around the world for the past five decades, including a major retrospective at the MoMA, NY, in 2005.
