  "The Call of Cthulhu" is a Cthulhu Mythos story by H. P. Lovecraft, first published in the February 1928 issue of Weird Tales Magazine. 
  "The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents." 
  With these iconic words, Lovecraft opens The Call of Cthulhu, a cornerstone of twentieth-century horror and the defining tale of his vast Cthulhu Mythos. Presented as a series of interconnected documents and testimonies, the story follows a professor's descent into the tangled threads of a global mystery—a series of strange dreams, cult activity, and ancient carvings that all point to the same terrifying revelation: the Great Old One known as Cthulhu is real—and not entirely asleep.

  “Look asshole, you’re writing this stupid, fucking novel about White’s Tavern, only you need to take a closer look at the people you’re writing about. Death is all around them. It’s a disease. And whether they drink it, shoot it, snort it, eat it, swallow it, breathe it or fuck it, everyone in that place, including you and me, are pregnant with it. Everyone in White’s spends all the money they got just to get a taste of it and feel it inside their bodies. It’s a taste of the grave and they get off on it. We all know death is coming, including everyone in White’s, only everyone in White’s just teases it until it finally comes.” 
  A harsh, jaw-dropping story of a small bar in a small, mob run Chicago suburb in 1973, where fights, frights, drugs, hard-core drinking, camaraderie, philosophical conversations, politics, and dying took place on a daily basis. It’s a fascinating blend of fact and fiction that will keep you thinking about your own life long afterward.

  Internet fame isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. 
  As a teenager Samantha Johnson wrote a song that went viral in all the wrong ways. A pop song about her love of mozzarella sticks. She hoped for adoration but instead became a joke for an entire generation. She absolutely does not want to be in the limelight ever again. Or even near it. Since then, she's kept mostly to herself. But then she gets set up with a guy who turns out to be a rock star, and she risks the spotlight falling on her once more. 
  Dimefront’s awkward drummer, Tanner Penton, never expected to live the rock star life. Even though he's living the dream, he's still fighting his past and the hurt caused by young love. He’d like to figure out how to actually speak to women without getting tongue tied. Unfortunately, his friends covertly fix him up with a woman he can't form a coherent syllable around. He gets flustered, his face heats, and... it's a whole thing. 
  Tanner must learn how to be authentically himself with Sam if he's going to make this last. And Sam must put the past behind her to figure out if she wants to embrace fame and the man she's falling for or walk away for good.

  The Sun Also Rises

  The Sun Also Rises was Ernest Hemingway's first published novel, and was both a commercial and literary success. Much information about the plot is available online. The story follows the lives of a group of people living during the 1920's, in Paris, mainly. Many of them had lived through the hardships and horrors of the First World War, and this lent a kind of manic energy to their social lives and relationships, as though there was not enough time and maximum "living" had to be squeezed into as short a time as possible. The book provides the first view of themes which can be found in most of his books - conflict, bull-fighting, hunting, fishing, and the complexities of human relationships between the sexes as well as across cultures.
