Good Used Trade paperback From the internationally bestselling author, Rina Kent, comes a new standalone book about a power couple who are each other's. They've overcome the secrets riddled in Patch's dark past, bridged two irreconcilable worlds and faced heart-wrenching tests of betrayal, loyalty and trust.and all for a love that will transcend the boundary between heaven and earth. The noise between Patch and Nora has gone. Are she and Patch strong enough for the battle ahead? Now Nora's own life is in imminent danger. And Nora's life isn't normal - her dad was murdered, and the facts about his death just don't add up. Nora should know better than to think her life can return to normal after falling in love with a fallen angel. For Nora is right in the middle of a centuries-old battle between the immortal and those that have fallen - and sooner or later, she's going to have to pick sides. Patch seems to be everywhere she is and knows more about her than her closest friends.And when she tries to seek some answers, she finds herself near a truth that is way more unsettling than anything Patch makes her feel. But after a series of terrifying encounters, Nora's not sure who to trust. With his easy smile and eyes that seem to see inside her, she is drawn to him against her better judgment. Nora's never been particularly attracted to the boys at her school. Her persnickety personality aside, Travers created some of the most memorable characters in children’s literature. What might she have thought of the 2018 film Mary Poppins Returns? It’s doubtful she would have been very pleased with it, either. Mary Poppins was the basis of the beloved 1964 Disney musical film, which the famously cranky author was none too happy with. As one character in Mary Poppins Opens the Door says of the magical nanny, “She’s a fairy-tale come true.” Her Mary Poppins series of books have entertained generations of readers, ever since the first volume was published in 1934. Following is a selection of quotes from Mary Poppins and Mary Poppins Comes Back, two timeless children’s classics from the multi-volume series. P.L.Travers (1899 – 1996) loved fairy tales and myths from childhood on, and no doubt reading them from childhood on fueled her imagination. Thesis: "The Trial" is a critique of the bureaucratized nature of power in modern society and its effect on the modern individual's will. Like most Modernist writers, Kafka used his art to express his sense of alienation and powerlessness in an increasingly hostile, meaningless, and dehumanized world. Left on the shelf by Kafka in 1915, the book was published in 1925 during the tense interwar period, which was, not coincidentally, the heyday of Modernist literature. It was at once an astute, even prescient critique of modern power structures as well as a novel that does not quite make sense from a literary perspective. Franz Kafka's possibly unfinished novel, "The Trial," is one of the great mysteries of modernist literature. It would be turning a blind eye to the theory that Nick is in love with Gatsby (and therefore refusing to pick a side between whether that’s gayification, or a valid possibility). It would not be delving into the difficulties and horrors women faced in an era when saying no to a man was an offense, but removing the unwanted baby he put in you was also unacceptable. Of course, simply getting the story from Jordan’s POV wouldn’t be doing any justice to the people of color who were sitting on the fringes of the source material (oh Nick, you’re good and kind to your Finnish maid! Congrats!). And Jordan is a queer, adopted Vietnamese woman who gets to see the best parts of society but doesn’t get to experience them due to her race. The Chosen and the Beautiful is told from the perspective of Nick Carraway’s main love interest, Jordan Baker. Let’s face it, literature has stood the test of time better than history, anyway. What I ended up getting was a new mantra: if white men can rewrite history, women of color can rewrite their books. When I picked up Nghi Vo’s debut novel The Chosen and the Beautiful, I was excited to get a more femme retelling of one of my favorite books of all time, The Great Gatsby. There should have been a seventh sister, whose name would have been Merope, but only six girls were actually brought home to Atlantis by Pa Salt. They are each named after one of the stars in the cluster – Maia, Alycone (Ally), Asterope (Star), Celaeno (CeCe), Taygete (Tiggy) and Electra D’Aplièse. The girls all grew up together at Atlantis, Pa Salt’s estate by Lake Geneva in Switzerland, but they were born in different countries and come from a diverse range of cultures and backgrounds. The first six Seven Sisters novels each tell the story of one of the adopted daughters of a mysterious billionaire known as Pa Salt who dies at the beginning of the series, leaving the sisters some clues to help them trace their biological parents. Looking at other reviews of this book, it seems that a lot of people were expecting this to be the final book in the series and were disappointed to find that it’s not it didn’t bother me as I’d seen Lucinda Riley’s announcement on Twitter regarding an eighth book, but if you weren’t already aware, it’s probably best to know before you start that you will need to wait another year for all of the series’ mysteries to finally be resolved. The Missing Sister is the seventh book in the Seven Sisters series inspired by the mythology surrounding the star cluster known as the Pleiades or ‘the seven sisters’. |
