  Oliver Twist is one of Charles Dickens's most enduring and socially powerful novels, offering a vivid portrayal of poverty, crime, and compassion in Victorian England. Through the unforgettable story of a young orphan, Dickens exposes the harsh realities faced by society's most vulnerable while celebrating the resilience of innocence and the possibility of redemption.
  
  Born into a workhouse and raised amid cruelty and neglect, Oliver Twist endures hunger, abuse, and injustice from an early age. After fleeing his brutal circumstances, he is drawn into the dark underworld of London, where he encounters a gang of thieves led by the cunning Fagin and the menacing Bill Sikes. Despite these influences, Oliver's innate goodness and moral purity remain uncorrupted.
  
  As the story unfolds, secrets surrounding Oliver's birth come to light, intertwining his fate with characters from vastly different social worlds. Dickens contrasts the corruption of crime and institutional cruelty with acts of kindness, loyalty, and self-sacrifice, creating a powerful critique of the Poor Law system and social inequality.
  
  Oliver Twist is a moving tale of survival, justice, and hope. Rich in memorable characters and dramatic tension, the novel highlights Dickens's deep concern for social reform and human dignity. Timeless and emotionally compelling, it remains a landmark work of English literature and a profound exploration of innocence struggling to survive in a cruel world.

  What Men Live By and Other Tales...

  Leo Tolstoy

  This is a collection of 4 stories by Leo Tolstoy, all dealing with the question asked in the title of the first story: What Does Man Live By. What is the purpose of life? How are we expected to live with others? What is all of this about anyway? And the answer to that question by the way is answered in a style that is uniquely and perfectly Tolstoy's. But these are not essays, but well written stories that tell about real people as they live real lives. The first story is broken into two parts and but is is read by the same person. Also the last story, How Much Land Does A Man Need has been broken into two sections for easier reading and it is also read by the same person for continuity and ease of understanding. The two stories in the middle, are much shorter but just as fascinating. Tolstoy was a deeply spiritual man and he always brought out the spiritual side of all the myriad questions he dealt with. (Summary by phil chenevert)

  Forty-something Annette Osmund always knew she was psychic. She's not, but that didn't stop her from giving those non-existent abilities her all. What she is, however, is a very powerful witch who has just inherited magics she never dreamed possible. 
   
   
   
  Starting over in a new town with her BFF has been an adventure. Defiance's status as a powerful type of witch called a charmling has kept Annette busy. But while Deph, a seeker, is still learning to use her magics, to control the power at her fingertips, Annette is overcome with powers of her own. Turns out, her being besties with Deph was not an accident. They were drawn to each other even before their powers emerged, and Annette learns she is also a charmling, a healer, and an alchemist. But what does that even mean? 
   
   
   
  Fortunately, there's one way to find out. She consults the house they're living in. Or, more to the point, the delicious entity haunting the house. Because, like her, he was once an alchemist. Maybe he will have the answers she so desperately seeks before she kills someone. The fact that he was once a stunning specimen of masculinity has nothing whatsoever to do with her desire to learn from a man who may or may not have been a powerful warlock.
