  For most people, Christmas is a season of joy. For Emily Carter, it’s a reminder of everything she’s lost. Since her mother’s passing, she’s avoided the carols, the lights, and the traditions that once meant the world to her. 
  But when she’s unexpectedly drawn into helping save the crumbling Midnight Theatre—a tiny community playhouse on the verge of closure—Emily finds herself surrounded by a cast of eccentric locals determined to put on the town’s first Christmas concert in decades. Among them is Jack, a widowed musician with a quiet smile and a few scars of his own. 
  As rehearsals spiral into chaos, tempers flare, and snow begins to fall, Emily discovers that sometimes the most broken hearts can still carry a song. And on Christmas Eve, with the Midnight Theatre’s future hanging in the balance, she must decide whether to keep hiding from the past—or to step into the spotlight and let hope back in. 
  Warm, romantic, and full of Christmas spirit, A Carol for Midnight is a story of second chances, healing, and the magic of music at the heart of the holiday season.

  A whole decade has passed since Baldwin, Brenden, Bria, and Christopher last saw each other. In college, they were a close-knit circle of friends who called themselves the Group—until an unfortunate set of circumstances placed their friendship in jeopardy. They went their separate ways after graduation, never looking back, and never expecting to see each other again. 
  Now they are reunited in a small North Carolina town to attend the funeral of one of their own. Rihanna was always the peacemaker of the group, so it’s almost fitting that it’s at her funeral that the Group will have to confront their past issues. Baldwin, the romantic, Brenden, the do-gooder, Bria, the wild child, and Christopher, the pretty boy, are all about to learn some truths about each other and about themselves over a few unforgettable and life-changing days. Secrets will be revealed, past hurts exposed, tears shed, and laughter shared, all in the name of friendship and love. 
  Electa Rome Parks, bestselling author of Diary of a Stalker, asks the question, “Can anything truly tear apart real friendship and love?”

  Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again

  Godzilla emerged from the sea to devastate Tokyo in the now-classic 1954 film, creating a global sensation and launching one of the world's most successful movie and media franchises. Awakened and transformed by nuclear weapons testing, Godzilla serves as a terrifying metaphor for humanity's shortsighted destructiveness: this was the intent of Shigeru Kayama, the science fiction writer who drafted the 1954 original film and its first sequel and, in 1955, published these novellas. 
   
   
   
  Although the Godzilla films have been analyzed in detail by cultural historians, film scholars, and generations of fans, Kayama's two Godzilla novellas have never been available in English. This book finally provides English-speaking fans and critics the original texts. The novellas reveal valuable insights into Kayama's vision, feature plots that differ from the films, and display the author's antinuclear, proenvironmental convictions. 
   
   
   
  Kayama's fiction depicts Godzilla as engaging in guerrilla-style warfare against humanity, which has allowed the destruction of the natural world through its irresponsible, immoral perversion of science. As human activity continues to cause mass extinctions and rapid climatic change, Godzilla provides a fable for the Anthropocene, powerfully reminding us that nature will fight back against humanity's onslaught.

  Lettice Galbraith is yet another of those mysterious women of British literature of whom little was recorded. 
   
  Lizzie Susan Gibson was born on the 27th January 1859 in Kingston-Upon-Hull in Yorkshire into a comfortable middle-class family. 
   
  Her education was primarily private but at fifteen her father died, and life became rather different. 
   
  After several years in London, she moved with her mother to Reigate in Surrey.   
   
  In 1885 she published her first story anonymously and her pseudonym ‘Lettice Galbraith’ only appeared from late 1892. 
   
  Although her canon of works is small, she mainly achieved her reputation on a single volume of ghost and supernatural stories entitled ‘New Ghost Stories’. 
   
  After her mother’s death in 1901 she moved to London and continued to write, this time moving on from the short story to the novel, as well as reverting to her given name. 
   
  For the last two decades of her life, she did not continue her literary career. 
   
  Lettice Galbraith died on 8th July 1932 at Downe, then in Kent.  She was 73
