Summary

Croia and Ronan, 12-year-old twins, bound by the brother and sister thread of inseparable love experience something they did not foresee. Held within the mystic embrace of October 31st, together with their mother’s new husband and their new 16-year-old sister, they learn that Halloween is so much more than costumes, trick-or-treating, and pumpkin carving.
 
As dusk settles, the family’s cherished Irish grandmother introduces the children to the ancient traditions of Samhain, where the veil between worlds is thinnest, and the living honor the dead. They are all drawn into the enchanting realm of stories, age-old customs, and the profound connections that span both life and death.
 
Amidst the silver shadows of the night, the family gathers to honor the memories of lost loved ones, setting places for them at the long dinner table. From heartfelt moments and playful divination games shared beneath the candles’ soft glow, to a traditional Celtic meal and a secret discovery, the heartbeats of the past echo in the present.
 
Come, gather around the golden fire, become immersed in time-honored traditions, join the timeless, sacred song of family, and celebrate Samhain.

    Rats are often misunderstood animals, with many people viewing them as pests or even dangerous creatures. However, they make wonderful and affectionate pets for those willing to look past these misconceptions. In this chapter, we will introduce you to the world of pet rats, explain why they make excellent companions, and discuss some important things to know before bringing one into your home. 
    Rats are highly intelligent and social animals, known for their ability to bond with their owners. Unlike many other small pets, rats have the capacity to learn and interact in meaningful ways. They can be trained to perform tricks, respond to their names, and even use a litter box. This intelligence and trainability make rats unique among small mammals, providing a rewarding experience for those who enjoy engaging with their pets. 
    In addition to their intelligence, rats are also affectionate. Many rat owners report that their pets develop strong bonds with them, often seeking attention and companionship. Rats are naturally social animals, which means they thrive in the company of other rats, though they also form close relationships with their human caretakers. When treated with kindness and respect, rats can be loving and loyal companions.

    For fans of Jasmine Warga and Thanhhà Lại, this is a stunning novel in verse about a young Taiwanese immigrant to America who is confronted by the stark difference between dreams and reality. 
    Anna can’t wait to move to the beautiful country—the Chinese name for America. Although she’s only ever known life in Taiwan, she can’t help but brag about the move to her family and friends. 
    But the beautiful country isn’t anything like Anna pictured. Her family can only afford a cramped apartment, she’s bullied at school, and she struggles to understand a new language. On top of that, the restaurant that her parents poured their savings into is barely staying afloat. The version of America that Anna is experiencing is nothing like she imagined. How will she be able to make the beautiful country her home? 
    This lyrical and heartfelt story, inspired by the author’s own experiences, is about resilience, courage, and the struggle to make a place for yourself in the world.
