Sinopse

Jane Eyre is a novel by English writer Charlotte Bronte. Jane Eyre follows the emotions and experiences of its title character, including her growth to adulthood, and her love for Mr. Rochester, the Byronic master of fictitious Thornfield Hall. In its internalization of the action — the focus is on the gradual unfolding of Jane's moral and spiritual sensibility and all the events are colored by a heightened intensity that was previously the domain of poetry — the novel revolutionized the art of fiction. Charlotte Bronte has been called the 'first historian of the private consciousness' and the literary ancestor of writers like Joyce and Proust. The novel contains elements of social criticism, with a strong sense of morality at its core, but is nonetheless a novel many consider ahead of its time given the individualistic character of Jane and the novel's exploration of classism, sexuality, religion, and proto-feminism.

    Ordinary? Never heard of her. 
    Small town life with oblivious parents? Blah. I, Samantha (but call me Sam), crave adventure, not dust bunnies. Enter Greg Papilio, a smoking-hot dude who rescues me from a magical explosion and a cryptic villain. Turns out, I'm not who I thought I was - not even human. Apparently, I'm about to undergo a major transformation that nixes free will. Talk about a buzzkill. 
    But fate can shove it. I won't be anyone's puppet. Then another magical stud struts in, claiming I'm his destined mate? Royalty and a castle? No thanks, honey. I make my own choices. 
    Here's the kicker: I'm falling for Greg, the forbidden one.  Screw fate, screw prophecies, I'll fight tooth and nail to be with him, even if it means defying the universe itself. 
    Keeper is a whirlwind of magic, forbidden love, and butt-kicking adventure. Perfect for fans of paranormal romance, urban fantasy, and The Mortal Instruments.

    From a New York Times–bestselling author, a woman goes ghost hunting with a handsome stranger in this “genuinely chilling” romantic suspense (RT Book Review). Elizabeth doesn’t believe in ghosts. But this time she has no choice. Family counselor Elizabeth Conner isn’t sure what to think when Maria Santiago comes to her for help. Pregnant and terrified, Maria claims to be visited each night by the ghost of a little girl, warning her to flee. Her husband, Miguel, a migrant worker at Harcourt Farms in the San Joaquin Valley, dismisses her fears as hormonal changes. Sympathetic to the young woman, Elizabeth agrees to help by contacting Miguel’s employers, who own the cottage where the young couple lives. Elizabeth immediately picks up on the deep enmity between the two Harcourt brothers: Carson, the handsome scion running the estate for his incapacitated father, and Zack, the rebellious black sheep. While Carson is more interested in Elizabeth than in her concerns, Zack grudgingly agrees to help her look into the history of the house. But even as unexpected desire draws them together, Elizabeth and Zack feel something dark and disturbing at the house. And when the cloying scent and lingering chill of pure evil surround her, Elizabeth knows something terrible has happened here before, something that has its roots in murder. . . .

    This is Part Three of The Profound, a magical realism series. 
    Meet James Tannot, a young man hailing from Dublin, Ireland, whose aspirations extend no further than his medical studies in Southern France. His aim? To obtain his MD from Marseille University. Yet, fate steers him off this course when he fails his entrance exam. Soon after, he encounters a mysterious Armenian physician who unveils to him a clandestine society of healers and magicians known as the Cymdeithas. Welcomed into their fold, James is thrust into a reality where magic and otherworldly powers are as tangible as the shelves of a supermarket. In this journey with the Cymdeithas, James not only finds his soulmate in Manush but also learns that his path to mastery demands a willingness to risk life itself. 
    But, please do not get this series wrong. There are no vampires and sex driven demons, there are no magic wands and there is no exhilarating battle between good and evil. Instead, it delves into a narrative rich with spiritual wisdom drawn from diverse traditions, portraying a personal odyssey of healing intertwined with humanity's struggle against existential ennui and the shadows of meaninglessness. 
    While a fantasy novel at heart, Manus Braith's narrative intricately interlaces with everyday reality, offering a profound exploration of existence. So, if you seek merely a thrilling escapade devoid of deeper significance, this series may not be for you. But if you sense a deeper dimension to life, if you perceive a lack in our materialistic world, then delve into its pages. 
    Braith's novel invites readers into a world where spirituality and magic converge in a distinctive approach to enlightenment. Sometimes lightheartedly comedic, at others, profoundly introspective, yet always compelling, it beckons to those who still harbor dreams. 
    The individual volumes of the story seamlessly blend into each other, weaving a world that refuses to let go easily.

    Light, Laugh, and Human Folly is a collection of novellas centered around anti-heroes living in a society that makes a straight road to success impossible. Alexander Belyaev's reality-set stories with a touch of science fiction are chillingly close to home. They present the reader with scenarios that are very plausible and easy to imagine witnessing in today's world. Instead of introducing a traditional hero, who comes and saves the world, Belyaev centers his narrative around individuals who are not only far from heroic but are decidedly unlikable at times.
