Finding him stabbed to death in the walk-in cooler of the Lake Eden Inn is worse, and it happens before he has even tasted Hannah's entry.\n\nJuggling wedding preparations, a high-stakes bake-off and a killer in her own town, Hannah does what she always does: bakes, asks questions, and follows the crumbs.

What began as one scientist's private act of desperation becomes the opening move in a conflict that will play out over centuries.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kk2t598y59qsqv4w88xa67wf.jpg","L9AB^i~qrfMyr9RjR:bb9RX9V=ju",2008,"4.67",472,[600,604,608,612,616],{"id":601,"slug":602,"name":603},"01kjqv35vr314wfh2vrq2w3ppv","untitled-3ned","Liu Cixin",{"id":605,"slug":606,"name":607},"01kjqv35vzg8nb4bch1yev4w3w","vincent-schmitt-bvow","Vincent Schmitt",{"id":609,"slug":610,"name":611},"01kjqv35w33j3p8ej4yt4y58c4","gwennael-gaffric-0ybv","Gwennaël Gaffric",{"id":613,"slug":614,"name":615},"01kjqv35w7sv95xe1qhw5amy9s","marc-simonetti-p7ue","Marc Simonetti",{"id":617,"slug":618,"name":619},"01kjsyfhr382jvfz7mtcj294ef","ken-liu-vxiu","Ken Liu",[621,622,623,627,631,635,639,642],{"id":198,"name":526,"slug":527,"is_fiction":18},{"id":500,"name":501,"slug":502,"is_fiction":18},{"id":624,"name":625,"slug":626,"is_fiction":18},26,"Space Opera","space-opera",{"id":628,"name":629,"slug":630,"is_fiction":17},70,"History","history",{"id":632,"name":633,"slug":634,"is_fiction":18},28,"Dystopian","dystopian",{"id":636,"name":637,"slug":638,"is_fiction":18},29,"Hard Sci-Fi","hard-sci-fi",{"id":406,"name":640,"slug":641,"is_fiction":18},"Science Fiction","science-fiction",{"id":643,"name":644,"slug":645,"is_fiction":18},203,"Social Sci-Fi","social-sci-fi",[647],{"id":648,"slug":649,"name":650,"position":219,"is_main_entry":18,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kjqv35ys6tre2n71w7pmgpfg","remembrance-of-earths-past-ca7i","Remembrance of Earth's Past",{"pace":78,"complexity":7,"audience":81,"mood":652,"themes":655,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[436,84,653,437,654],"philosophical","thought-provoking",[656,87,657],"first-contact","multiple-povs",{"key":659,"params":660,"works":661},"genre_year",{"genre":28,"year":9},[662,700,726,753,790,822],{"id":663,"slug":664,"title":665,"description":666,"primary_cover_url":667,"cover_blurhash":668,"first_publish_year":551,"community_rating_avg":669,"community_rating_count":406,"page_count":670,"authors":671,"genres":680,"series":692,"enrichment":693},"01kkfgykqxnjddrfebfhn97b4c","lile-aux-arbres-disparus-lkvy","L'île aux arbres disparus","Elif Shafak's 2021 novel moves between two islands of memory. In 2010s London, sixteen-year-old Ada Kazantzakis is grieving her mother and estranged from a Cypriot heritage she has never been allowed to know. In 1970s Cyprus, her parents-to-be, Kostas and Defne — he Greek Christian, she Turkish Muslim — fall in love in secret, meeting at a tavern called The Happy Fig as their island slides toward war and partition.\n\nWoven through both timelines is a third, unexpected narrator: a fig tree, carried as a cutting from Cyprus to a London garden, which watches over the family and remembers everything the humans cannot bear to say. Through its eyes, Shafak braids together buried history, ecological wonder, and the long aftershocks of a divided homeland.\n\nTender and elegiac, The Island of Missing Trees is a novel about inherited silence and inherited love — about how the traumas of one generation take root in the next, and about the fragile work of belonging to a place, a family, and a past. A Reese's Book Club pick and Costa Award finalist, it is among Shafak's most beloved books.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kkfgyktpap0q3r4jmhg8as6h.jpg","L2DIbP~901Rto$-P]wRh0IJE0hRn","4.33",407,[672,676],{"id":673,"slug":674,"name":675},"01kjwhxy0ck6r6rtepje2aps35","elif-safak-6ayf","Elif Şafak",{"id":677,"slug":678,"name":679},"01kkfgyktfs5qsanvmc5gdpmvd","dominique-goy-blanquet-vmoy","Dominique Goy-Blanquet",[681,682,683,684,688],{"id":198,"name":526,"slug":527,"is_fiction":18},{"id":27,"name":28,"slug":29,"is_fiction":18},{"id":500,"name":501,"slug":502,"is_fiction":18},{"id":685,"name":686,"slug":687,"is_fiction":18},8,"Historical Fiction","historical-fiction",{"id":689,"name":690,"slug":691,"is_fiction":18},22,"Magical Realism","magical-realism",[],{"pace":78,"complexity":7,"audience":81,"mood":694,"themes":697,"setting_period":7,"summary":699,"content_warnings":7},[507,315,695,476,696],"reflective","romantic",[442,698,657],"forbidden-love","In 2010s London, teenage Ada grieves her mother and knows almost nothing of her Cypriot roots.

When the two strike a bargain, Halle will tutor Henry, and Henry will take Halle on the dates she needs for her book, they set a single rule between them: don't fall in love. Keeping to it proves harder than either expected. The third book in the Maple Hills series, this fake-dating romance pairs an anxious overachiever with a warm, neurodivergent hero whose character draws on the author's own experience of autism and ADHD.

Leon has it during the day; Tiffy takes the nights and weekends. For months they live intimately entangled lives without ever meeting face to face.\n\nThe two communicate entirely through sticky notes left around the flat, and as those notes grow warmer, funnier, and more honest, a real relationship takes shape between two people who have never spoken. But both are carrying baggage: Tiffy is slowly extracting herself from a controlling ex-boyfriend whose grip on her is harder to escape than she wants to admit, and Leon is preoccupied with a family crisis of his own.\n\nBeth O'Leary's debut is a warm, witty, and genuinely tender romantic comedy that balances real charm with a clear-eyed look at emotional abuse and recovery. Told in Tiffy and Leon's alternating voices, The Flatshare is a feel-good love story with unexpected emotional depth.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjz4mjhm9w0q0fj5h9g9kgkk.jpg","LGOyYJ_QDHEIGc^IRPNE}koaR#t5","4.50",[938],{"id":939,"slug":940,"name":941},"01kjyg7b8whv5dvjq4h79kd67j","beth-oleary-jy8f","Beth O'Leary",[943,944,945],{"id":35,"name":36,"slug":37,"is_fiction":18},{"id":27,"name":28,"slug":29,"is_fiction":18},{"id":299,"name":300,"slug":301,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":78,"complexity":7,"audience":81,"mood":948,"themes":949,"setting_period":7,"summary":951,"content_warnings":7},[366,119,696,83,722],[848,123,751,950,657],"epistolary","Tiffy and Leon share a London flat and a bed, but never at the same time—she has it nights, he has it days—and communicate only through sticky notes.

But the kingdom is changing. Magic is turning unpredictable, the king's reach is growing, and the manor that once felt untouchable is suddenly full of cracks.\n\nTo protect the people she has come to think of as family, Evie must become more than an assistant. She takes up training in combat, subterfuge, and the darker arts of her employer's trade, stepping into a role that will test her loyalty and her heart in equal measure. Meanwhile, the man she works for is guarding secrets of his own, and the feelings neither of them will name grow harder to ignore.\n\nThe second book in Hannah Nicole Maehrer's bestselling series raises the stakes on its grumpy-sunshine romance while keeping the sharp humor and workplace chaos that made the first so beloved.
