Summary

Three seconds. That's the time I spend every day admiring the boy I'm in love with unnoticed. Zero seconds. The time Patrick has devoted to me every day for the past few years since he returned to Columbus to attend high school.

I would so much like things to change, but every time I get close to him, I am always left burnt and humiliated. 
I don't understand why he resents me so much, that he never misses an opportunity to make me feel mistaken.
Still, I can't stop thinking about him, until Sawyer, the most antisocial and grouchy boy in school, comes along. I have never had anything to do with him, even though his eyes are often on me. There has always been a safe distance between us but as soon as this was violated, here comes Patrick. I don't know how it happened, but I feel like I'm caught between two fires, and now I don't know which way to turn. 
A secret that could put an end to that feud or start a real war between Good and Evil.

    This is an intriguing collection of folklore from the Santal Parganas, a district in India located about 150 miles from Calcutta. As its preface implies, this collection is intended to give an unadulterated view of a culture through its folklore. It contains a variety of stories about different aspects of life, including family and marriage, religion, and work. In this first volume, taken from Part I, each story is centered around a particular human character. These range from the charmingly clever (as the character, The Oilman, in the story, "The Oilman and His Sons"), to the tragically comical (as the character, Jhore, in the story "Bajun and Jhore"). In later parts, the stories will focus on other subjects, including spirits, animals, and legends from this culture.

    In ancient Vietnam, there once lived a King called Hung Vuong. He was a benevolent king who ruled wisely and with much kindness. As Hung Vuong grew old, he had to pick one of his children to succeed him. To help him decide, the sons were given an important task to prepare a meal fit for a king. The two older sons journeyed to the farthest lands to find the rarest ingredients. The youngest, Lang Liêu, was a humble prince who merely prepared a simple meal with great care, using locally harvested rice grains, Vietnam's most precious edible commodity. While his brothers impressed their father with exotic dishes using the most exclusive ingredients, Lang Liêu fashioned simple glutinous rice cakes for the king—the bánh chưng and bánh giầy. Who will win the crown and rule the land?
