Synopsis

In "Emily Climbs," L. M. Montgomery continues the coming-of-age journey of Emily Starr, a spirited and imaginative young woman determined to forge her own identity against the backdrop of early 20th-century Prince Edward Island. Montgomery's narrative style, rich with lyrical prose and vivid descriptions, immerses the reader in Emily's world as she navigates the complexities of adolescence, creativity, and the expectations of societal conventions. The novel not only explores themes of ambition, friendship, and love but also delves into the psychological and emotional growth of its protagonist as she strives to become a published writer, reflecting the author's own struggles and aspirations in the literary realm. L. M. Montgomery, a Canadian author born in 1874, experienced a childhood filled with the beauty of nature and a strong connection to storytelling, which greatly influenced her work. Her personal journey, marked by periods of solitude and the yearning for self-expression, mirrors Emily's experiences. Montgomery's rich tapestry of characters and settings is drawn from her own life, intertwining her own struggles as a woman in a patriarchal society with the universal themes of hope and resilience. "Emily Climbs" is a profound exploration of youth, creativity, and the pursuit of one's dreams. It is a must-read for those who appreciate a deeply introspective narrative that examines the trials and triumphs of a young woman in her quest for recognition as an artist. Readers will find themselves enraptured by Emily's indomitable spirit and Montgomery's masterful storytelling.

    Wildlife veterinarian Dr. Veronica Perry travels the world to help animals in need. When Riverbend Animal Conservation Center offers her a chance to lead their veterinary team while helping repopulate endangered species in her own backyard, Veronica can’t turn it down. It doesn’t hurt that living in Riverbend, Indiana, will also give her the chance to help train Luna, a foster puppy for Riverbend K-9 Academy’s wildlife detection program. 
    Kai Torres is the head zookeeper at RACC. When his longtime friend, Veronica, joins their team, they work together to help restore RACC’s new land conservancy, just a few miles away from Riverbend. Restoring the abandoned land will be well worth it both for native species and for Riverbend itself, especially after they discover that two Riverbend citizens have been attacked nearby. 
    However, after Veronica and Kai believe RACC’s land is finally safe, Luna starts finding scents where they don’t expect them. Too late, they realize that the person responsible for the attacks is using RACC’s land conservancy as cover for a more nefarious crime. And they’ll do whatever it takes to make sure Veronica and Kai don’t discover the truth. 
    A Whisker of Suspicion is Book 3 in the Riverbend K-9 Series. All books in the Riverbend K-9 Series may be enjoyed as standalone novels or as a series.

    The very first sci fi, written at the height of people making stuff up and pretending it was history (looking at you, Herodotus). Nice to see the art of the spoof is so old...A True Story (Ancient Greek: Ἀληθῆ διηγήματα, Alēthē diēgēmata; Latin: Vera Historia or Latin: Verae Historiae), also translated as True History, is a long novella or short novel written in the second century AD by the Syrian author Lucian of Samosata. The novel is a satire of outlandish tales that had been reported in ancient sources, particularly those that presented fantastic or mythical events as if they were true. It is Lucian's best-known work.It is the earliest known work of fiction to include travel to outer space, alien lifeforms, and interplanetary warfare. It has been described as "the first known text that could be called science fiction". However, the work does not fit into typical literary genres: its multilayered plot and its characters have been interpreted as belonging to science fiction, fantasy, satire or parody, and have been the subjects of scholarly debate.- From the wiki:

    LAPD Detective Ray Collins and his partner Steadly team up again to solve a case which might not only put their careers on the line, but also their lives.  
    A young girl seems to have disappeared without any trace whatsoever. Her best friend Rebecca tells the police that they got drunk and took pills “up in the hills somewhere”, but she has no further memory what happened next. When she woke up the next morning, Tracey was gone. 
    There are little to no hints of what might have happened, with the exception of Rebecca having partial memory of a luxurious mansion. The owner, Lawrence Helzinger, is famous for his social circle, including politicians and police chiefs, who for years protected him from prosecution. His parties are reported to be notorious, turning into orgies, allegedly passing around underage girls. The LAPD, the Washington Post and the New York Times have been after Helzinger for years, but for some reason he seems to be untouchable. 
    Faced with an insurmountable opponent, Collins and Steadly have to fight against the clock to rescue the missing girl and save innocent lives. The two must put aside old resentments and new tensions to run to ground one of the most powerful men in Los Angeles, a cabal of reckless people involved in a secret conspiracy with many moving parts. 
    Ray must not only uncover but expose the monsters lurking in the shadows – which might result in his very own downfall.
