Lana Lee runs her family’s Chinese restaurant in Cleveland’s Asia Village like nobody’s business. When it comes to actual cooking, however, she’s known to be about a step up from boiling rice. So Lana decides to go to culinary school on the sly—and prove that she has what it takes in the kitchen after all. But when course instructor Margo Chan turns up dead after class, Lana suddenly finds herself on the case, frying pan in hand. Since she was the one who discovered the body, Lana must do double duty in finding the killer and clearing her name. Now, with or without the help of her boyfriend Detective Adam Trudeau, Lana launches her own investigation into Margo’s life and mysterious death.

Jane emerges from this upbringing not broken but resolute, and takes a position as governess at Thornfield Hall, home of the brooding, unconventional Edward Rochester. Their growing attachment is one of literature's great slow-burn romances, built on frank conversation between social unequals rather than surface charm.\n\nJust as their relationship reaches its turning point, Jane discovers that Thornfield holds a secret Rochester has concealed from her — one that forces her to choose between her feelings and her self-respect. She leaves, nearly destitute, and finds an unexpected new family and a difficult choice about duty, faith, and love before the novel's resolution reunites her with Rochester on entirely different terms.\n\nPublished in 1847 under the pseudonym Currer Bell, Jane Eyre was radical for its time in giving a plain, poor, and passionate woman a first-person voice insisting on her own moral and intellectual equality. It remains a foundational work blending Gothic mystery, romance, and bildungsroman.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjz3q6zpgfqf38nqgavvqzew.jpg","LDFr,~~nyCx@4kxskYakD,4stRt3",1847,"4.44",168,[621],{"id":622,"slug":623,"name":624},"01kjr18b89qttj4vpj9abmnwp4","charlotte-bronte-55u0","Charlotte Brontë",[626,630,634,638,639,643,644,648,652],{"id":627,"name":628,"slug":629,"is_fiction":21},47,"Gothic","gothic",{"id":631,"name":632,"slug":633,"is_fiction":20},70,"History","history",{"id":635,"name":636,"slug":637,"is_fiction":21},15,"Drama","drama",{"id":442,"name":443,"slug":444,"is_fiction":21},{"id":640,"name":641,"slug":642,"is_fiction":21},8,"Historical Fiction","historical-fiction",{"id":277,"name":278,"slug":279,"is_fiction":21},{"id":645,"name":646,"slug":647,"is_fiction":21},58,"Classics","classics",{"id":649,"name":650,"slug":651,"is_fiction":21},220,"Victorian","victorian",{"id":653,"name":654,"slug":655,"is_fiction":21},7,"Horror","horror",[657,661,665,669,673,677],{"id":658,"slug":659,"name":660,"position":289,"is_main_entry":21,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kx77zd2p1qchdgb3tvh3cz73","the-penguin-english-library-jtva","The Penguin English Library",{"id":662,"slug":663,"name":664,"position":198,"is_main_entry":21,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kx9jx36yvjnntxztkdkbnbtp","knickerbocker-classics-1svp","Knickerbocker Classics",{"id":666,"slug":667,"name":668,"position":139,"is_main_entry":21,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kx9g5frzwtzqq10fytkm539t","signet-classics-mrni","Signet Classics",{"id":670,"slug":671,"name":672,"position":7,"is_main_entry":21,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kx76w3maw09s19d69r0sym2c","wordsworth-deluxe-classics-eltp","Wordsworth deluxe classics",{"id":674,"slug":675,"name":676,"position":7,"is_main_entry":21,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kx8xp324smy3qbndnq15mv1s","modern-library-classics-v8ep","Modern Library Classics",{"id":678,"slug":679,"name":680,"position":7,"is_main_entry":21,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kx7j30bhyrmc97j692srtenf","arcturus-classics-zzp5","Arcturus Classics",{"pace":91,"complexity":7,"audience":93,"mood":682,"themes":683,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[506,463,143],[98],{"key":685,"params":686,"works":687},"genre_year",{"genre":32,"year":9},[688,716,743,773,801,824],{"id":689,"slug":690,"title":691,"description":692,"primary_cover_url":693,"cover_blurhash":694,"first_publish_year":557,"community_rating_avg":695,"community_rating_count":696,"page_count":697,"authors":698,"genres":703,"series":711,"enrichment":712},"01knwymr4k09w85vakc2rfbnhk","the-love-of-my-afterlife-j0cb","The Love of My Afterlife","Delphie finds herself in the afterlife after an embarrassing demise, only to meet the man of her dreams.

Stephanie Bascomb is organizing an elaborate three-day event to support local charities, and though it's a worthy cause, Hannah almost flips when her business partner, Lisa, suggests setting up an apple turnover stand.
