Sinopse

In "Blanche," Mrs. Molesworth presents a captivating tale steeped in the Victorian ethos of childhood innocence and moral development. The narrative follows the titular character Blanche, whose adventures are set against the backdrop of a richly detailed domestic sphere infused with both warmth and subtle moral lessons. Molesworth's prose is characterized by its lyrical quality and a keen psychological insight into the lives of children, melding fantasy with the everyday realities faced by the upper-middle-class during the late 19th century. The book'Äôs intricate characterizations and exploration of familial bonds reflect the era's literary trends while offering a unique perspective on the trials of youth. Mrs. Molesworth, born in 1839, established herself as a prominent author in children's literature, often drawing upon her own experiences and observations of societal norms and expectations. Her works frequently challenged rigid social structures, making her a progressive voice in a male-dominated literary landscape. This particular narrative likely emerged from Molesworth'Äôs deep-seated empathy for children and her desire to empower young readers through engaging storytelling that encourages moral reflection and self-discovery. "Blanche" is highly recommended for readers seeking a profound exploration of childhood and personal growth within a beautifully crafted narrative. Molesworth'Äôs insightful observations will resonate with both young readers and adults, making it a timeless addition to the canon of children'Äôs literature. Delve into this enchanting world and discover the rich texture of human relationships and the resilience of the youthful spirit.

    With an uncommonly astute eye for the absurd details that comprise your average American, Charles Portis brings to life Jimmy Burns, an expatriate American living in Mexico. For a time, Jimmy spent his days unearthing  
preColumbian artifacts. Now he makes a living doing small trucking jobs and helping out with the occasional missing-person situation—whatever it takes to remain “the very picture of an American idler in Mexico, right down to the grass-green  
golfing trousers.” But Jimmy’s laid-back lifestyle is being seriously imposed upon by a ninety-pound stalker named Louise, whose particular fascination with Jimmy is a mystery to him. Add to this a sudden wave of hippies led by a murderous excon  
guru in search of psychic happenings, archaeologists unearthing (illegally) the Mayan tombs, and Louise and her weirdo husband’s quest for UFO landing sites, and Jimmy’s simple south-of-the-border existence is facing clear and present danger.

I’ve always said boyfriends are like martinis. They’re lots of fun at first, but the longer you indulge, the bigger headache they’ll give you. With career goals to crush and more than a few balls in the air, there’s no place in my life for the messy complications of love. Jax Crosby thinks he can tempt me to lose control, and he’s using his daughter to reel me in.  
He’d be dangerously easy to fall for, but there are more important things in life than love, aren’t there?   
Jax 
I like to stay two steps ahead. That way, I’m never surprised. But even I didn’t see this one coming.  
Congratulations to me - I’m a freakin’ dad. Now, I’ve got a teenage daughter who hates me, an ex who wants to cut things off my body I’m not ready to part with, and an attraction to a curvy songbird that couldn’t have come at a worse time.  
But I’ve never met a situation I couldn’t handle, and I’ve never let a female get the best of me. So, why do I have the feeling Ariana Amante might be one more thing I never saw coming?
