    Set in Peru in the summer of 1714, this novel tells the tale of a group of interrelated people who perish following the collapse of an Inca rope bridge. A Franciscan friar, Brother Juniper, witnesses the accident and sets out to find out more about each victim, seeking answers—cosmic or otherwise—as to why they had to die. In his quest, Brother Juniper spends six years trying to interview as many people that knew the victims as he can, seeking to prove that both their beginning and their end was part of God's plan for each victim. In doing so, he hopes to document empirical evidence of God's Divine Providence. Winner of the 1928 Pulitzer Prize and the bestselling work of fiction that same year, this novel is exploration of the meaning of a person's life beyond their personal choices.

    A sparkling romantic comedy set in the heart of New York City! 
    Mia Sinclair is an aspiring writer with big dreams and a knack for stumbling into trouble—especially at Manhattan’s most exclusive events. When a chance mishap at a glamorous Fifth Avenue gala lands her face-to-face with Carter Ross, the city’s most eligible (and commitment-phobic) architect, Mia finds herself swept into a high-society world that feels straight out of a rom-com. 
    Suddenly, Mia and Carter are the talk of New York—thanks to a little white lie and a string of headline-worthy fake dates. Between dazzling charity balls, late-night rooftop confessions, and the magic of Central Park, what begins as a pretend romance soon feels all too real.

    First published in 1849, Redburn: His First Voyage is a richly detailed coming-of-age novel by Herman Melville that draws heavily from the author's own early experiences at sea.
    
    The story follows Wellingborough Redburn, a young and inexperienced boy who leaves home to work aboard a merchant ship sailing from New York to Liverpool. Armed with a naïve guidebook and romantic expectations of life at sea, Redburn quickly confronts the harsh realities of maritime labor, poverty, cruelty, and disillusionment. As the voyage unfolds, his youthful innocence is stripped away by encounters with brutal sailors, desperate immigrants, and the stark inequalities of the Old World.
    
    More than a sea adventure, Redburn is a powerful social novel that examines class division, human suffering, and moral responsibility. Melville offers vivid depictions of shipboard life, bustling ports, and the grim conditions faced by the poor, blending realism with deep compassion. Through Redburn's gradual awakening, the novel traces the painful but necessary journey from innocence to experience.
    
    Honest, humane, and deeply observant, Redburn: His First Voyage stands as one of Melville's most accessible works and an essential exploration of youth, hardship, and moral growth in a rapidly changing world.
