  Virginia Woolf's literary legacy shines brightly through her acclaimed novels "Mrs. Dalloway," "To the Lighthouse," and "The Voyage Out." In "Mrs. Dalloway," Woolf skillfully weaves a tapestry of inner thoughts, social constraints, and the complexities of human existence. Through the introspective journey of Clarissa Dalloway, Woolf explores the intricacies of personal identity, the influence of societal expectations, and the enduring power of memory. The novel captures the nuances of everyday life, revealing the hidden desires, regrets, and hopes that shape the characters' lives. 
   
  "To the Lighthouse" stands as a literary masterpiece that captures the ebb and flow of time and the profound transformations that occur within relationships and individuals. Woolf delves into the dynamics of the Ramsay family as they navigate the changing tides of love, loss, and the pursuit of artistic fulfillment. Through vivid imagery and lyrical prose, she explores the intricate workings of human connections and the complexities of human emotions. 
   
  "The Voyage Out" takes readers on a captivating journey of self-discovery and the exploration of gender roles. Through the protagonist Rachel Vinrace, Woolf delves into the limitations and societal expectations placed upon women in the early 20th century. As Rachel embarks on a literal and metaphorical voyage, she grapples with her own desires, intellectual curiosities, and the restrictions imposed by a patriarchal society. Woolf's narrative brilliance shines as she intricately weaves together themes of feminism, self-realization, and the yearning for freedom. 
   
  Across these three novels, Woolf's prose is characterized by its poetic beauty, stream-of-consciousness technique, and keen observation of the human psyche.

  Tag has secretly admired Opal from afar. He even went so far as to ask her out, but the timing was all off, and now he’s just awkward around his best friend’s little sister. Then, she finds Tag in a precarious situation as he’s breaking a horse. Can their unexpected reunion mend the fences between them and finally lead them to the forever love they’ve been waiting for? 
  Opal Hammond is at a crossroads. She's on sabbatical from her high-profile job as a doctor in California, and now that she's in Ivory Peaks with her brother, his wife, and their new baby, Opal can't imagine driving away. She's tried dating over the years, and no one has ever been a fit. In fact, she believes she's destined to be single forever. That no one will ever emerge as her One True Love. 
  Taggart Crow is the foreman on Gertrude Hammond's small family farm, and he's become Mike's best friend in the year he's worked there. So that means Opal, as Mike's younger sister, is completely off-limits. Too bad his heart sings and the heavens open every time he encounters the woman. 
  When Opal is injured while Tag's breaking a horse, his guilt eats him alive. So he's right at her side on the way to the hospital. When she comes back to the farm. Everywhere. And the more time they spend together and the more he takes care of her, the more he can't deny his feelings. 
  So when he asks her out for the second time, Opal says yes. She's still not sure she's marriage material, but she's told Tag more of her personal secrets than anyone else. Can they find their own brand of happily-ever-after right there in Ivory Peaks? 
  Join Opal and Tag as they heal together in HIS EIGHTH RIDE, the next installment in the captivating Ivory Peaks series. Immerse yourself in the powerful Hammond Family saga and experience the romance, resilience, and faith that this compelling series is known for.

  Five new pastiche stories of the world's greatest detective. These stories are shorter than the other novellas in the New Sherlock Holmes Mysteries set and were published earlier in either the MX Books or Belanger Books anthologies of Sherlock Holmes stories (Edited by David Marcum). 'The Singular Tragedy of the Atkinson Brothers at Trincomalee' is one of the unpublished cases we hear about in The Canon. The story Takes Holmes and Watson to the tropical island of Ceylon on behalf of the Foreign Office to investigate the murder of one of the Atkinson brothers and sends Holmes into a nasty web of deceit, murder, and perversion in the heat of the colonies. In 'The Barrel of Lagavulin' the adventures of Sherlock Holmes meet up with characters from the tales of Edgar Allan Poe and we learn what happens long after the horrendous events recorded in 'The Cask of Amontillado.' Did you ever wonder what happened to the characters from the Vermissa Valley that you read about in 'The Valley of Fear?" In 'The Fear of Retribution' you will find out, and it is not pleasant. 'The Adventure of the Winchester Heart-Breaker' takes Holmes and Watson back to the Copper Beeches and to what happened to the nasty child who loved to go 'smack, smack, smack' on the cockroaches. 'The Adventure of the Tea-Stained Diamonds' is a completely new Sherlock Holmes mystery in which Holmes needs to stop a cycle of revenge killings that began years earlier in the tea gardens of Darjeeling. If you love the stories of Sherlock Holmes, these five new mysteries will appeal to you
