Her first year of college is supposed to be the disciplined next step. Then she meets Hardin Scott — cold, rude, tattooed, and infuriating — and everything she planned starts to come apart.\n\nBeneath Hardin's cruelty is something that draws Tessa in against her better judgment, and their connection quickly becomes a passionate, turbulent romance that swings between tenderness and chaos. As she's pulled deeper into his world and the secrets he's hiding, Tessa has to decide how much of herself she's willing to lose to be with him.\n\nOriginally written on Wattpad, where it drew a massive global readership, Anna Todd's After launched a bestselling New Adult series and film franchise.

Awarded a coveted month-long guest editorship at a New York fashion magazine in the summer of 1953, she moves through a world of luncheons, parties, and photo shoots that leaves her feeling numb rather than dazzled. Beneath the polished surface, she finds herself unable to reconcile the future she is expected to want — marriage, motherhood, quiet domesticity — with the writer and free self she longs to become.\n\nWhen Esther returns home to the Boston suburbs, the disconnection deepens into a full mental collapse. Sylvia Plath traces her descent with unnerving clarity, following Esther through insomnia, paralysis, and hospitalization, and into a course of psychiatric treatment that is by turns frightening and, eventually, steadying. The bell jar of the title becomes Plath's enduring image for depression: a transparent enclosure that seals a person off from the air everyone else breathes.\n\nPublished in 1963 shortly before Plath's death, and drawing closely on her own experiences, The Bell Jar is a landmark of twentieth-century literature.

Spirited and unconventional, they challenged authority and fought for a better world. But over the past thirty years, the quartet has drifted apart, the day-to-day demands of work and family tempering the revolutionary fervor they once shared. Then comes devastating news: Armaiti, who moved to America, is gravely ill and wants to see the old friends she left behind. For Laleh, reunion is a bittersweet reminder of unfulfilled dreams and unspoken guilt. For Kavita, it is an admission of forbidden passion. For Nishta, it is the promise of freedom from a bitter, fundamentalist husband. And for Armaiti, it is an act of acceptance, of letting go on her own terms. The World We Found is a dazzling masterwork from the remarkable Thrity Umrigar, offering an unforgettable portrait of modern India while it explores the enduring bonds of friendship and the power of love to change lives.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2864j1v6cyh4qtsz1tmq31.jpg?v=1589a9f41a","LTOC1YpZ?ZQ.yWWGiwX8~TVZE4jE",2012,221,[576],{"id":577,"slug":578,"name":579},"01kx241wmna6h9pkfq26sn3jj2","thrity-umrigar-ztpe","Thrity Umrigar",[581,582],{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":21},{"id":281,"name":282,"slug":283,"is_fiction":21},[],{"pace":50,"complexity":7,"audience":52,"mood":585,"themes":586,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[54,55],[],{"id":588,"slug":589,"title":590,"description":591,"primary_cover_url":592,"cover_blurhash":593,"first_publish_year":594,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":18,"page_count":595,"authors":596,"genres":601,"series":604,"enrichment":605},"01kx2eypmrnsyr7h0zwy2t8s5q","blue-skinned-gods-tpnu","Blue-Skinned Gods","From the award-winning author of Marriage of a Thousand Lies comes a brilliantly written, globe-spanning novel about identity, faith, family, and sexuality.

In Kalki’s tenth year, he is confronted with three trials that will test his power and prove his divine status and, his father tells him, spread his fame worldwide. While he seems to pass them, Kalki begins to question his divinity. Over the next decade, his family unravels, and every relationship he relied on—father, mother, aunt, uncle, cousin—starts falling apart.

It is at once a mystery, a portrait of a marriage, and a meditation on the cost of a life built on other people's tragedies.\n\nDescribed by Dalton as the most personal book he has written, Gravity Let Me Go is a tender, propulsive, big-hearted novel from the bestselling author of Boy Swallows Universe.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kttejgwrcah4vy4pxtaxt3p0.jpg?v=6d486d1736","LPGc}htPv[xb0cbX$-WB?IR*NWM{","4.50",420,[747],{"id":748,"slug":749,"name":750},"01ktt0xmy8j9z3qe05pp08r42r","trent-dalton-fgoq","Trent Dalton",[752,753,754,755,759,760],{"id":124,"name":125,"slug":126,"is_fiction":21},{"id":277,"name":278,"slug":279,"is_fiction":21},{"id":350,"name":351,"slug":352,"is_fiction":21},{"id":756,"name":757,"slug":758,"is_fiction":21},44,"Crime","crime",{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":21},{"id":137,"name":138,"slug":139,"is_fiction":21},[],{"pace":319,"complexity":7,"audience":52,"mood":763,"themes":764,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[218,219,102],[],{"id":766,"slug":767,"title":768,"description":769,"primary_cover_url":770,"cover_blurhash":771,"first_publish_year":772,"community_rating_avg":14,"community_rating_count":15,"page_count":773,"authors":774,"genres":779,"series":782,"enrichment":783},"01kx2eeex68x56gxr9dswjatn8","incendiary-xyvh","Incendiary","A distraught woman writes a letter to Osama bin Laden after her four-year-old son and her husband are killed in a massive suicide bomb attack at a soccer match in London. She tries to convince Osama to abandon his terror campaign by revealing to him the desperate sadness - \"I am a woman built on the wreckage of myself\"--And the broken heart of a working-class life blown apart. But the bombing is only the beginning. While security measures transform London into a virtual occupied territory, the narrator, too, finds herself under siege. At first she gains strength by fighting back, taking a civilian job with the police to aid the antiterrorist effort. But when she becomes involved with an upper-class couple, she is drawn into a psychological maelstrom of guilt, ambition, and cynicism that erodes her faith in the society she's working to defend. And when a new bomb threat sends the city into a deadly panic she is pushed to acts of unfathomable desperation - perhaps her only chance for survival.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2eeey4ts876yx4aqx8yt64.jpg?v=b5cefe8d96","L~Ms+OWXjboM{boJj?jYY2n+bHf*",2006,292,[775],{"id":776,"slug":777,"name":778},"01knsymrqx8ppyrq6bahge97vk","chris-cleave-iy5m","Chris Cleave",[780,781],{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":21},{"id":137,"name":138,"slug":139,"is_fiction":21},[],{"pace":50,"complexity":7,"audience":52,"mood":784,"themes":785,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[218,219,102],[786],"survival",{"id":788,"slug":789,"title":790,"description":7,"primary_cover_url":791,"cover_blurhash":792,"first_publish_year":594,"community_rating_avg":675,"community_rating_count":15,"page_count":526,"authors":793,"genres":798,"series":801,"enrichment":802},"01kx2detcgt4sqcfm0e80j6v0r","in-the-quick-fag8","In the Quick","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2detcwesch8t151pfwsr5y.jpg?v=1d5826a1e2","LGP#]On%}]-VI:WBxaxu$Qa|S2s:",[794],{"id":795,"slug":796,"name":797},"01kx2detcsea4bfs9rj9xeeyy1","kate-hope-day-n5ed","Kate Hope Day",[799,800],{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":21},{"id":137,"name":138,"slug":139,"is_fiction":21},[],{"pace":319,"complexity":7,"audience":52,"mood":803,"themes":804,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[218,219],[],{"id":806,"slug":807,"title":808,"description":809,"primary_cover_url":810,"cover_blurhash":811,"first_publish_year":812,"community_rating_avg":485,"community_rating_count":15,"page_count":813,"authors":814,"genres":819,"series":825,"enrichment":826},"01kx2b7r5p1ssecwbpebq02pme","the-adjunct-4xog","The Adjunct","From the author of How to Be Eaten, a “darkly funny, deeply incisive” (Booklist) take on the campus novel that follows a woman on the edge gigging her way through academia’s poor job market when she crosses paths with her old PhD adviser, whose new novel might be about her.

Overworked and underpaid, she lives in a blur of back-to-back classes, side hustles, and job applications for an ever-dwindling number of tenure-track jobs. Her already precarious existence is thrown into disarray when she runs into her former grad school adviser, Dr. Tom Sternberg, on campus. Tom and Sam have a complicated history, and it’s the last thing she wants to think about as she navigates academic politics, institutional hurdles, and romantic entanglements with men and women that further complicate a sexuality not even she can define. Then she learns that Tom left his old job for undisclosed reasons—and his long-awaited second novel is about a professor reckoning with his checkered past. As rumors spread that Sam is the inspiration behind a central character, she fights to regain control of the story. An “entertaining, provocative” (Brooklyn Rail) look at how hustle culture has come to define modern academia, The Adjunct offers a bold twist on a tangled MeToo story and turns Sam’s downward spiral into a searing critique of class and the hollow promises of the American dream.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2b7r6a2n3dch6m59kekf4a.jpg?v=ee37c1e789","L9Q$3B_3*Kl;8wMd-:d9p1VHHVxn",2026,352,[815],{"id":816,"slug":817,"name":818},"01kx2b7r63kzcfzgh9pxyhnf7s","maria-adelmann-sis1","Maria Adelmann",[820,824],{"id":821,"name":822,"slug":823,"is_fiction":21},118,"Satire","satire",{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":21},[],{"pace":319,"complexity":7,"audience":52,"mood":827,"themes":829,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[828,56],"funny",[409],[831],{"id":832,"slug":833,"title":834,"user":7,"work_id":4,"is_draft":20,"verified_reader":21,"featured":20,"body":835,"overall_rating":384,"depth":7,"momentum":7,"atmosphere":7,"craft":7,"impact":7,"spice":7,"spoiler_level":836,"locale":7,"feed_item_key":837,"like_count":18,"comment_count":18,"top_likers":838,"viewer_can_reply":20,"created_at":839,"updated_at":839},"01kr818d2xynb6bt0w8httx55y","review-of-bercakap-dengan-jun-by-deleted-258","Review of \"Bercakap dengan Jun\" by deleted_258","Beberapa kali nampak di kedai buku tapi tak pernah berhajat nak membeli. Ini rekomendasi teman di Bookendsmy jadi saya beli akhirnya.\n\nKisah yang menarik dan sangat jujur. Heartbreaking but lovely. Bait bahasa yang disusun cantik, aksara-aksara yang bercerita dan berbual--masih teringat-ingat di kepala saya. Saya suka watak Junaidi-- seperti dia sedang duduk di sebelah bercerita tentang Saigon, Naurah dan Anum kepada saya. Perjalanan kisah yang dramatik, sisi kental dan tanggungjawab seorang lelaki yang bukan siapa-siapa, tentang harga sebuah kasih sayang dan cinta pandang pertama. \n\nKisah si penyeluk saku dan cinta hatinya. Bacaan santai yang mengajar kehidupan. Termenung juga saya dengan ending-nya, tak pasti mahu mengeluh tentang apa. Barangkali itu jalan cerita Junaidi yang terbaik untuknya. Cuma saya kasihankan Anum, si kecil yang entah bagaimana hidupnya nanti tanpa si Babah. \n\nKalau tak kerana typographical errors yang banyak mungkin saya bagi 4 bintang.","none","rv-01kr818d2xynb6bt0w8httx55y",[],"2026-05-10T04:10:20.000000Z"]
