Publisher: Henry Fielding
. “A Journey from this World to the Next “(1743) is a powerful yet playful narrative, in which Fielding anatomizes contemporary follies with his customary vigour. Using the form of a journey through the underworld, he satirizes all claims to historical and political greatness.
I love three things in this world more than life itself: 1. My family and housemates (both current and former) 2. Musicals 3. My best friend, Eric Moody The first two are no surprise to anyone who knows me. The third is a secret I’ll carry to my grave. Because even though Eric fits in well with my crazy family and he’s the outgoing complement to my quiet self, we want different things. I want him. He wants something I can never give. And I refuse to sacrifice his happiness for my own. Most of the time, I manage to keep my feelings for him under lock and key. But things change when Eric moves in with me temporarily. Now, he’s here all the time. And it’s harder and harder not to imagine what life together could be like … if only. The final straw? When he starts helping me prepare for my (forced) lead role in a local musical. Because yeah. You try holding back the tidal wave of feelings you’ve been keeping at bay when your sexy best friend offers to “practice kiss” you. My fortitude is headed straight for the edge of a cliff—and the thrill of the impending fall has never felt so electrifying. Or so terrifying.

All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn. It's the best book we've had. - Ernest Hemingway A nineteenth-century boy from a Mississippi River town recounts his adventures as he travels down the river with a runaway slave, encountering a family involved in a feud, two scoundrels pretending to be royalty, and Tom Sawyer's aunt who mistakes him for Tom. In this unforgettable adventure for all ages, Twain delves into issues such as racism, friendship, war, religion, and freedom with an uncanny combination of lightheartedness and gravitas. This was the first major American novel to be written in the vernacular, a dark and funny satire that exposes the bigotry and hypocrisy of provincial America during Mark Twain's lifetime. A rite of passage for ever young reader, this book continues to delight readers around the world and remains as fresh and as funny as ever.
