![]() ![]() Lying to help children? Who on earth would refuse?ĭani’s plan is simple: fake a relationship in public, seduce Zaf behind the scenes. Turns out his sports charity for kids could really use the publicity. ![]() Suddenly, half the internet is shipping #DrRugbae-and Zaf is begging Dani to play along. But before she can explain that fact to him, a video of the heroic rescue goes viral. When big, brooding security guard Zafir Ansari rescues Dani from a workplace fire drill gone wrong, it’s an obvious sign: PhD student Dani and former rugby player Zaf are destined to sleep together. So Dani asks the universe for the perfect friend-with-benefits-someone who knows the score and knows their way around the bedroom. Romantic partners, whatever their gender, are a distraction at best and a drain at worst. But romance? Been there, done that, burned the T-shirt. The bestselling author Talia Hibbert returns with another charming romantic comedy about a young woman who agrees to fake date her friend after a video of him “rescuing” her from their office building goes viral…ĭanika Brown knows what she wants: professional success, academic renown, and an occasional roll in the hay to relieve all that career-driven tension. Take a Hint, Dani Brown (The Brown Sisters #2) by Talia Hibbert – Free eBooks Download ![]() ![]() With the exception of a few heavy-handed statements about the public good versus private profit, Pratchett slides the satire in around the edges of the primary action: watching a career criminal transitioning rather quickly to earnest civic flunky, all under the watchful (glowing red) eyes of a monstrously powerful and patient government-employed golem. Pratchett follows Moist’s attempts to resuscitate regular mail service as he goes up against the evil hegemony of corporate toadies running the clacks towers, a once-impressive series of semaphore towers that, when they work, can send a message hundreds of miles in no time at all, but at a hefty price. That’s no easy task, what with only two employees left, both pretty much insane, puttering around the massive, dead-letter-stuffed edifice, not to mention the competition with the clacks towers. ![]() It seems that the Duke wants a man everybody thinks is dead to take over the city’s long-moribund post office. This time, Moist Von Lipwig, a scam artist with a host of aliases, has just been hanged for his crimes-except that he hasn’t, due to some trickery with the rope. ![]() ![]() Pratchett satirizes the modern telecom business in a deeply satisfying comedy about a man sent to a fate worse than death: the post office.įans of Pratchett’s Discworld series will be happy he’s returning to the city of Ankh-Morpork-after the Balkan War–esque madness of Monstrous Regiment (2003)-though it’s not to the familiar environs of the Watch or Unseen University. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Lewis George Orwell Mary Pope Osborne LeUyen Pham Dav Pilkey Roger Priddy Rick Riordan J.

Lisa Gaye Dixon is Goodman’s presiding Aunt Ester, as assured and perceptive as she is wry and droll. She is respected as guru, shaman, truth-sayer and, above all else, holder of the key to the City of Bones, a mythic place, or rather a place in the mind, where sins are purged and broken souls made whole again. “Gem of the Ocean,” like most of Wilson’s cycle, takes place in Pittsburgh’s Hill District, in the home of Aunt Ester, a community matriarch of indeterminate age but said to be 285 years old. Taken as a whole, the cycle is unsurpassed as a body of work by an American playwright the subtle rigor of Wilson’s plays combined with their unfailing lyricism might be summed up as Shakespeare meets Tennessee Williams. “Gem of the Ocean,” framed in the 1900s with the legacy of slavery still very much in the room, was written next to last. ![]() It’s something of a theater geeks parlor game to recite which play pertains to which decade and then, for the Wilson devotee championship, to toss off the order in which they were written. While the 10 plays of the Pittsburgh Cycle are set in specific decades, they were not written in the chronology they invoke. August WIlson came to Chicago for the premiere of ‘Gem of the Ocean’ in 2003. ![]() ![]() ![]() If her reputation can survive both her curse and her sudden connection with the least-liked man in all high society, then she and her family may yet reclaim their normal place in the world. Dora hopes to be a quiet, sensible wallflower during the London Season-but when Elias Wilder, the strange, handsome, and utterly ill-mannered Lord Sorcier, discovers her condition, she is instead drawn into peculiar and dangerous faerie affairs. Ever since she was cursed by a faerie, Theodora Ettings has had no sense of fear or embarrassment-an unfortunate condition that leaves her prone to accidental scandal. ![]() “Whimsical, witty, and brimming over with charm” (India Holton), Olivia Atwater’s delightful debut will transport you to a magical version of Regency England, where the only thing more meddlesome than a fairy is a marriage-minded mother!

Beloved, bumbling Detective Dirk Gently returns in this standalone novel from Douglas Adams, the legendary author of one of the most beloved science fiction novels of all time, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. Some attain a degree of ugliness that can only be the result of a special effort. “It can hardly be a coincidence that no language on Earth has ever produced the expression "as pretty as an airport". ![]() ![]() His novels are light of touch, pleasant, amusing, and thoroughly healthy. In all he wrote about 50 novels, besides books about the West Indies, North America, Australia, and South Africa, a translation of Cæsar, and monographs on Cicero and Thackeray. Other novels are Orley Farm, Can you forgive Her?, Ralph the Heir, The Claverings, Phineas Finn, He knew he was Right, and The Golden Lion of Grandpré.

After a short time in Belgium he obtained an appointment in the Post Office, in which he rose to a responsible position. His childhood was an unhappy one, owing to his father’s misfortunes. ![]() Novelist, son of Thomas Anthony Trollope, a barrister who ruined himself by speculation, and of Frances Trollope, a well-known writer, was born in London, and educated at Harrow and Winchester. ![]() |
