![]() ![]() Praise for Suzanne Wright: 'Unique, original and very entertaining' Ramblings From This Chick 'It's been two minutes since my last fix and I need Suzanne Wright to give me more. Because when you move up the food chain, sometimes the other predators just want to take a bigger bite. ![]() It seems the combined strength of Harper and Knox has upset the balance of power in the demon world and there are those who are determined to right that wrong. But Harper begins to suspect there's more danger than one rogue demon. Now, Knox has a new priority: Keep Harper safe. Knox isn't - at least until he discovers his mate's willingness to get between him and danger. ![]() Watching him whimper pathetically at her feet, she gently probed the lump that was quickly forming on the back of her head. The bite mark on her cheek was throbbing like a bitch. A little on the dizzy side, she rapidly blinked. Then one of Knox's demons goes rogue, and in his madness decides Knox Thorne must die. With an agonized sob, he dropped to his knees and slapped his hands against his head. Harper's gone from being a member of a small demon lair to co-Prime of one of the most powerful lairs in the US with a mate who, though hot as hell, is just a mite overprotective - I mean, you get kidnapped by dark practitioners just once. But life 'ever after' isn't as easy as it used to be. ![]() Harper and Knox are back in the second of bestselling author Suzanne Wright's highly addictive Dark in You series. ![]()

![]() ![]() The finely drawn characters capture readers’ attention in this debut.Īutumn and Phineas, nicknamed Finny, were born a week apart their mothers are still best friends. Woe unto readers with facial or bodily asymmetry, but the overwritten passages pass quickly and the rest is delicious escapism. Glimpses of Avalon are painfully clichéd but short (“an emerald-green tree, a sliver of cerulean sky, rays of sunshine that sparkled like diamonds”). Overly idealized physical descriptions smack of wish-fulfillment (flawless, zit-less Laurel needs no shampoo to keep her blond hair perfect) and over-ripen into absurdity when the text insists that (light-skinned) beauty embodies goodness. She was placed with unknowing human parents to inherit the land that holds the faerie gates to Avalon. Scientific experiments with cute mortal David and explanations from steamy faerie Tamani reveal that Laurel’s a faerie-and faeries are plants. ![]() ![]() ![]() Tropes fulfilled-new school: check hidden ancestry: check mysterious hottie knowing more about the heroine than she does: check-never encumber the silky narration as 15-year-old Laurel finds a blossom growing from her back. In the current crop of supernatural romances, this one stands out for pleasant, non-angsty prose but also for a blunt, archaic equation of physical beauty with moral goodness. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Tūla (1993) (novel) translated into English as Tūla, Flossmoor, IL: Pica Pica Press, 2016.Tai vienas ymiausi iuolaikini lietuvi roman, laikomas bene geriausiu Jurgio Kunino kriniu ir viena graiausi meils istorij lietuvi. Laba diena, pone Enrike! (1996) (essays) Filmas sukurtas Jurgio Kunino romano Tla motyvais.The public library in his hometown Alytus has been renamed after him and holds a biennial literary festival in his memory. His 1996 compilation of essays, Laba diena, pone Enrike!, received an award from the city of Vilnius. Kunčinas received the Lithuanian Writers Union' prize in 1994 for the novel Tūla, set largely in Vilnius's Užupis district. His works, originally published in the Lithuanian language, have been translated into English, German, Russian, Estonian, Belarusian, Swedish, and Polish. He has been described as the chronicler of Soviet bohemianism, who poeticized the individual's internal autonomy as an alternative to the absurdity of social life. Jurgis Kunčinas (13 January 1947 in Alytus, Lithuania – 13 December 2002) was a poet, novelist, translator and essayist. ![]() ![]() And despite a reluctant muse-and a strange buzzing and recurring pain in his head-he must finish composing his symphony before the grand opening of the city's new opera hall. Nationally acclaimed conductor Nathaniel Tate Whitcomb is Nashville's new orchestra leader. To make matters worse, Adelicia Acklen Cheatham, mistress of Belmont Mansion and Rebekah's new employer, agrees with him. Because the conductor-determined to leave his mark on the world of classical music-bows to public opinion. But women are "far too fragile and frail" for the rigors of an orchestra, and Rebekah's hopes are swiftly dashed. ![]() ![]() A master violinist trained in Vienna, Rebekah Carrington manages to wheedle her way into an audition with the Maestro at the newly formed Nashville Philharmonic. ![]() ![]() Mahatma Gandhi, as he is most commonly referred to, was instrumental in liberating India from the clutches of the British. ![]() Every year, his birthday is celebrated as Gandhi Jayanti, a national holiday in India, and also observed as the International Day of Nonviolence.

This is a brand new dark menage series set in the same world as the Brutal Boys of Everlake Prep series with character crossover. So I think I’m gonna join The Death Club and let my freak flag fly. Every day is anarchy and that’s my favourite flavour. Want to know another one? I quite like it here. Don’t ask them or they’ll send me back to that creepy asylum where they gave me the crazy pills. ![]() Which is a freaking insult by the way as I’m already the best killer in town. I can’t decide which I want most.Īnyways, my hot, tattooed, muscular insane Irish captor thinks I might make a good hit woman once he trains me up. He either wants to kiss me or choke me out.

I was kidnapped, sold, sold again, stuck in a death game, sold AGAIN and now I’m living in a serial killer’s basement. I wished for my life to improve, but it didn’t. ![]() I know killing technically doesn’t start with a C – but wouldn’t life be better if it did?

In Go Down Together: The True, Untold Story of Bonnie and Clyde, bestselling author Jeff Guinn combines exhaustive research with surprising, newly discovered material to tell the real tale of two kids from a filthy Dallas slum who fell in love and then willingly traded their lives for a brief interlude of excitement and, more important, fame.
