Beschreibung

Three troubled people, driven by loneliness, vanity and revenge, dash to the Scottish Highlands, where their lives become mysteriously entwined around a reading group in the Inverness public library. We've all done it—gone after one thing and found entirely another—but never as surprisingly as Henry, Peter & Elena. It's Friday, 18th February 2000, and they're in for an unsettling weekend among the book stacks of the library, on the blizzard-bound streets of Inverness, in the recesses of the Loch Craggan Hotel, and on the treacherous mountain above.

    From author A. R. Rose comes a STANDALONE feel good holiday romance with fake dating, found family, and a cat named Potato . . . A wise woman once told me no one should have to spend the holidays alone, and with my first Christmas after losing my family quickly approaching, I decide to take her advice to heart. 
     
    My plan is impulsive, but simple: create a dating profile and attend a few Christmas parties throughout the month to combat the loneliness. 
     
    Never in my wildest dreams did I expect an avalanche of messages full of men eager for me to be their "holidate." From office parties to family gatherings, there's no shortage of festivities to fill my calendar. And with my no strings rule, it should be simple, right? 
     
    That's what I thought, too. Until I meet someone who piques my interest in ways I never imagined, and I single-handedly redefine what it means to 'make an entrance.' 
     
    Now I can't help but wonder if the term falling in love is more literal than it seems. 
     
    Contains mature themes.

    In "The Trial," Franz Kafka plunges readers into the surreal and troubling world of Josef K., who awakens one day to find himself inexplicably arrested. Without understanding his crime or accusers, Josef navigates a Kafkaesque labyrinth of bureaucratic indifference and the grotesque machinations of an opaque legal system. This masterful narrative probes the absurdity of institutional power, the fragility of human dignity, and the elusive quest for justice. Kafka's tale remains a timeless reflection on the individual versus the unfathomable forces of society.
