Sinopsis

Years ago, when House of Leaves was first being passed around, it was nothing more than a badly bundled heap of paper, parts of which would occasionally surface on the Internet. No one could have anticipated the small but devoted following this terrifying story would soon command. Starting with an odd assortment of marginalized youth -- musicians, tattoo artists, programmers, strippers, environmentalists, and adrenaline junkies -- the book eventually made its way into the hands of older generations, who not only found themselves in those strangely arranged pages but also discovered a way back into the lives of their estranged children.

Now, for the first time, this astonishing novel is made available in book form, complete with the original colored words, vertical footnotes, and newly added second and third appendices.

The story remains unchanged, focusing on a young family that moves into a small home on Ash Tree Lane where they discover something is terribly wrong: their house is bigger on the inside than it is on the outside.

Of course, neither Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist Will Navidson nor his companion Karen Green was prepared to face the consequences of that impossibility, until the day their two little children wandered off and their voices eerily began to return another story -- of creature darkness, of an ever-growing abyss behind a closet door, and of that unholy growl which soon enough would tear through their walls and consume all their dreams.

    What happens when you change the rules about dealing with difficult people? 
    Marcus Winters has always been a master at keeping the peace—accommodating his narcissistic wife Vanessa's emotional needs and navigating his brilliant but difficult product development team at work. He creates systems, follows rules, and does whatever it takes to maintain harmony. But beneath his calm exterior, Marcus is drowning. 
    Enter Dr. Valerie Mercer, "The Difficult Person Whisperer." Armed with unconventional wisdom and strange symbolic objects, she teaches Marcus five transformative principles that challenge everything he thought he knew about difficult relationships. 
    As Marcus begins to stand his ground, Vanessa and his team escalate their resistance through increasingly manipulative tactics. Just when small breakthroughs emerge, crisis strikes, forcing Marcus to choose between managing his wife's manufactured meltdown and salvaging his career during the most important business dinner of his life. 
    Faced with devastating ultimatums from Vanessa and his boss, Marcus must decide whether maintaining his newfound boundaries is worth losing everything he's worked for. What follows isn't about winning or losing but discovering that sometimes the most courageous move is changing how you play. 
    Quinn Price masterfully blends workplace drama with relationship psychology, creating a story about transformation and the courage to live by rules that actually work. Perfect for fans of Brené Brown and Liane Moriarty.

    A charming mystery story set in the early 1900s which is as much about the townspeople, sleuths and other colorful characters as it is about the murder. Filled with comic antics of Scotland Yard fellows, local police, and residents of the town, keeps the murder ever elusive. The "whodunit" is maintained until the very end and the laughter keeps going even after the mystery is solved.

    Life on planet Earth is in danger on all fronts, much of it is self-inflicted.  If we don't all become enlightened in some magical, mystical and majestic way, we could be in the final phase of the end of everything.  However, we have one very subtle and as yet unknown quality that no one has ever dreamed possible and it's about to be announced for everyone to know and cherish. It will be our redeeming quality. First we will have move the planets around in their orbits and make one of them a second sun, but after that, we're golden. Not too much to ask when you know about how Time flies about the universe in waves.  This story is a ride on the Time waves of our lives, hitting the planet now and everyone needs to get on board.  
    In Shockwave, time is no longer a passive backdrop—it’s a volatile force sending invisible shockwaves more and more frequently towards our planet. They may even be part of our Evolution. Sam Harper, an amateur scientist and science fiction author notices that his life has a dual pathway, one with his first and favorite wife and another with his most antithetical wife. The two pathways criss-cross to demonstrate the way that the multiverse works. There are several important and totally unique accomplishments that humanity will make in the next few hundred years. One of them is so important, so huge, so unique in the universe it reaches the attention of God who speaks to us through one of the Artificially Intelligent chatbots who rules over the entire planet. The way that the future unfolds for us and the way that the universe responds to the events in this unique story is the biggest shockwave of all and will remain in your consciousness for the rest of your life because it is the greatest truth ever known.

    The Earl of Saxham was vastly annoyed when his son, Guy, fell in love with a "penniless nobody," and announced that he would marry her against all opposition. He determined to separate the lovers; to which end he persuaded an influential friend in the Foreign Office to secure an appointment for Guy in the Embassy at Madrid. He little knew that he was sending his son into the centre of a hotbed of anarchism, that Guy's footsteps were to be dogged by a vindictive and revengeful woman, that his life was to hold many a thrilling moment and not a few narrow escapes.
