Sinopse

The Complete Katy Carr Series is a rich tapestry of childhood adventures, familial bonds, and poignant life lessons, chronicling the journey of Katy Carr, a spirited girl with aspirations of becoming a writer. Set against the backdrop of the late 19th century, Susan Coolidge employs a charming, accessible style that engages readers with its vivid descriptions and relatable characters. The series explores themes of friendship, resilience, and the transition from childhood to adulthood, embodying the bildungsroman tradition while also reflecting the social mores and challenges of the era, particularly with respect to young women's roles in society. Susan Coolidge, the pen name of Sarah Chauncey Woolsey, drew upon her own experiences and observations of childhood and family life to create the beloved character of Katy. The eldest of four sisters, Woolsey faced the loss of her mother at a young age, which shaped her understanding of personal loss and resilience. Throughout her life, she remained dedicated to the notions of imagination, friendship, and the importance of pursuing one's dreams, factors that deeply influenced the rich characterizations and adventures portrayed in Katy's narratives. For readers seeking a charming and thoughtful exploration of youth and growth, The Complete Katy Carr Series is an essential addition to any literary collection. Its timeless appeal makes it suitable for both young readers and adult fans of classic literature, offering insights into the struggles and triumphs of adolescence while inspiring a sense of nostalgia for the simplicity and wonder of childhood.

    Disillusioned with a dystopian society a young teenager takes the law into his own hands to avenge his soulmate. But at what price? When Nathan loses Anna — his vibrant, bursting-with-life soulmate, the one girl who completes him — to depression and despair following a vicious rape, he vows revenge against the trio of scumbags involved. Rather than waiting for a justice system he doesn’t believe in to act, he becomes Judge, Jury, Executioner. He hunts down the rapist and those who aided and abetted him hoping this will bring the Anna of old back to him. Instead, much to Nathan’s shock and pain, it has the opposite effect, driving her even further towards a dangerous precipice. Will true love be enough to set things right? One thing’s for sure: no matter what happens, true love is forever. Mitchell P. Jones presents the reader with Nathan’s cold, clear-eyed view of the world and all its faults, a place that hardly has room for love. But, in this world, it is love in the end that rises above all else, turning the coal of daily life into a sparkling diamond.
