Pintip Dunn is back and her words are just as addictive. ![]() I wouldn't say it was predictable, for the target audience it probably would be a brain exercise and I recommend it to anyone, really. I read too many books in my life so I guessed everything pretty early on, but I still couldn't be 100% sure, so when things got revealed I didn't roll my eyes, I was just happy I was right. My only problem was with the ending, and although I understand why it needed to be like that, and it's also YA, so it was probably more suitable for the target audience, I waited for something different with more blood and heartbreak. I read it in a day and actually see myself rereading it in the future, because it was that entertaining. ![]() I also liked the main plot about the time travel and how it affected the present day, how different their older selves were from them due to the things they went through, and that every relationship was healthy and people communicated with each other. ![]() I really enjoyed this one, especially the romance! It was super sweet with a stubborn heroine and a golden retriver love interest. ![]() ![]() What’s in each box? 1 - 4 gently used books in your chosen genre.

Illustration © 2020 by Valentina Catto from The Folio Society’s edition of Anne Bronte’s The Tenant of Wildfell Hall With their somber binding designs touched with gold, compelling illustrations, pleasantly hefty size that is still not too cumbersome for reading, wide margins, and clear, carefully set type, they provide a fitting setting for the words of three groundbreaking women who changed our reading world forever. Now Anne-partisans (the number of which seems to have been quietly growing over the last couple of centuries) can feel vindicated, with this splendid volume in series with the most recent Folio incarnations of Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights. The Folio Society has marked the occasion by releasing a new edition of Anne’s second and most substantial novel, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. ![]() Janumarked the 200th anniversary of the birth of Anne Brontë, bringing the attention of the world to the youngest and least celebrated of the three literary sisters from Yorkshire. ![]() Anne Brontë, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall (1847) ![]() ![]() Linguistic Evidence in Anthropology and Prehistory 5.

Introduction to the Bloomsbury Revelations Edition Preface to the First Edition Preface to the Second Edition Preface to the Third Edition Editor's Introduction, Roy Harris Introduction 1. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Patrick O'Brian's many devoted readers will take particular interest in this story, as Jack and Toby form a kind of blueprint for Jack Aubrey and Stephen Maturin, the famed heroes of the great Aubrey/Maturin series to come. ![]() This saga of survival is the background to the adventures of two young men aboard the Wager: midshipman Jack Byron and his friend Tobias Barrow, an alarmingly naive surgeon's mate. After many months of privation, a handful of men made their way northward under the guidance of a band of Indians, at last finding safety in Valparaiso. A surplus of rum, a disappearing stock of food, and a hard, detested captain soon drove them into drunkenness, mutiny, and bloodshed. The survivors were soon involved in trouble of every kind. The Wager was parted from Anson's squadron in the fierce storms off Cape Horn and struggled alone up the coast of Chile until she was driven against the rocks and sank. In The Unknown Shore, O'Brian returns to this rich source and mines it brilliantly for another, quite different tale of exploration and adventure. Patrick O'Brian's first novel about the sea, The Golden Ocean, took inspiration from Commodore George Anson's fateful circumnavigation of the globe in 1740. An immediate precursor to Patrick O'Brian's acclaimed Aubrey/Maturin series, displaying all the splendid prose and attention to detail that O'Brian's readers expect. ![]() |
