Rich with sensory magic and sleight-of-hand twists, Caraval launched a bestselling series and a wider fairy-tale universe.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks\u002F01\u002F01kjrb2hye5vp3z1br622apsaz.jpg","L47BZbWD4T%2t7kCaejZ00oc.TM{",416,[623],{"id":624,"slug":625,"name":626},"01kjr6z02q2ykqvc19espk0hmj","stephanie-garber-eip9","Stephanie Garber",[628,629,630,631,632,633],{"id":160,"name":161,"slug":162,"is_fiction":20},{"id":112,"name":113,"slug":114,"is_fiction":20},{"id":169,"name":170,"slug":171,"is_fiction":20},{"id":202,"name":203,"slug":204,"is_fiction":20},{"id":519,"name":520,"slug":521,"is_fiction":20},{"id":30,"name":31,"slug":32,"is_fiction":20},[635],{"id":636,"slug":637,"name":617,"position":183,"is_main_entry":20,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kjrb2j2ytgkps4hyjc61aqae","caraval-hujb",{"pace":127,"complexity":7,"audience":531,"mood":639,"themes":640,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[397,76,583,221],[641,587],"quest",{"key":643,"params":644,"works":645},"genre_mood",{"genre":35,"mood":76},[646,661,692,723,751,775],{"id":88,"slug":89,"title":90,"description":91,"primary_cover_url":92,"cover_blurhash":7,"first_publish_year":93,"community_rating_avg":94,"community_rating_count":66,"page_count":95,"authors":647,"genres":650,"series":656,"enrichment":658},[648,649],{"id":98,"slug":99,"name":100},{"id":102,"slug":103,"name":104},[651,652,653,654,655],{"id":30,"name":31,"slug":32,"is_fiction":20},{"id":108,"name":109,"slug":110,"is_fiction":20},{"id":112,"name":113,"slug":114,"is_fiction":20},{"id":116,"name":117,"slug":118,"is_fiction":20},{"id":34,"name":35,"slug":36,"is_fiction":20},[657],{"id":122,"slug":123,"name":124,"position":125,"is_main_entry":20,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},{"pace":127,"complexity":7,"audience":74,"mood":659,"themes":660,"setting_period":7,"summary":136,"content_warnings":7},[129,77,76,130],[132,133,134,135],{"id":662,"slug":663,"title":664,"description":665,"primary_cover_url":666,"cover_blurhash":667,"first_publish_year":668,"community_rating_avg":669,"community_rating_count":512,"page_count":670,"authors":671,"genres":676,"series":684,"enrichment":689},"01kjq6w2bf0ybnphf5p56yebht","fifty-shades-of-grey-xbc2","Fifty Shades of Grey","When literature student Anastasia Steele stands in for her sick roommate to interview Christian Grey, a young, staggeringly wealthy entrepreneur, she expects a routine assignment and finds herself unnerved and intrigued in equal measure. Christian, in turn, pursues her with an intensity that is flattering, unsettling, and impossible to ignore. Their attraction is immediate, but Christian warns Ana that he is not a hearts-and-flowers man, and that any relationship with him comes on his terms.\n\nAs Ana is drawn into Christian's carefully controlled world, she discovers the tastes and rules he lives by, and the contract he wants her to sign. What follows is an explicit, emotionally charged romance about desire, power, and the limits each of them is willing to test. Christian's guardedness hides a painful history, and Ana must decide how much of herself she is willing to surrender to reach the man beneath the control.\n\nThe first book in E. L. James's global phenomenon, Fifty Shades of Grey became a cultural touchstone and one of the best-selling novels of its era. It is a frank, provocative adult romance whose depiction of a dominant-submissive relationship sparked wide debate, and which launched a trilogy followed by companion retellings from Christian's point of view.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjq6w2ce59f4933w3yjjqjmk.jpg","L8Adizxu008^~q?w4T8_4T.8?b9F",2012,"2.70",453,[672],{"id":673,"slug":674,"name":675},"01kjq6w2bng34gqcva7898j5sk","e-l-james-p9ok","E.

The first book in the Into Darkness series pairs a heroine with a taste for the macabre and an antihero determined to protect what's his, whatever it takes.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjq6vwawtec9y9eq6abxya9h.jpg","L7Eo_Pof00WB%MWB~qj[%Ma|-;xu","4.11",9,[909],{"id":910,"slug":911,"name":912},"01kjq6vw9tzh6c3fpaq2rj26e9","navessa-allen-cvmg","Navessa Allen",[914,915,916,917,918,919,920],{"id":679,"name":680,"slug":681,"is_fiction":20},{"id":281,"name":282,"slug":283,"is_fiction":20},{"id":160,"name":161,"slug":162,"is_fiction":20},{"id":741,"name":742,"slug":743,"is_fiction":20},{"id":34,"name":35,"slug":36,"is_fiction":20},{"id":196,"name":736,"slug":737,"is_fiction":20},{"id":921,"name":922,"slug":923,"is_fiction":20},204,"Romantic Suspense","romantic-suspense",[925],{"id":926,"slug":927,"name":928,"position":183,"is_main_entry":20,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01knrdcgazr38jhn830ecxztqb","into-darkness-oi1c","Into Darkness",{"pace":127,"complexity":7,"audience":74,"mood":930,"themes":931,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[129,77],[135],{"id":933,"slug":934,"title":935,"description":936,"primary_cover_url":937,"cover_blurhash":938,"first_publish_year":231,"community_rating_avg":232,"community_rating_count":146,"page_count":308,"authors":939,"genres":944,"series":952,"enrichment":957},"01kjq7d15e40knmjkbqy5eps3g","haunting-adeline-lf7c","Haunting Adeline","When author Adeline Reilly inherits Parsons Manor, her late great-grandmother's isolated estate in Washington, she moves in hoping for quiet and inspiration. Instead she finds a house full of secrets — a long-unsolved family disappearance — and the unsettling sense that she is never truly alone. Someone is watching her.\n\nThat someone is Zade Meadows, a masked vigilante who runs an underground operation targeting human traffickers, and who has become dangerously obsessed with Adeline. As Adeline unravels the mystery buried in the manor's history with the help of her friend Daya, the line between predator and protector blurs into something neither of them can control.\n\nHaunting Adeline is the first book in H.D. Carlton's Cat and Mouse Duet, a BookTok phenomenon known as much for its polarizing reputation as its popularity. It is an extremely dark, graphic romance built on a stalker premise and should be approached with its extensive content warnings firmly in mind. The story concludes in Hunting Adeline.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjq7d16vpnbx2zmyg0xv52j2.jpg","L37UC$RjDibb~p4nM{_3_3-pD%WB",[940],{"id":941,"slug":942,"name":943},"01kjq7d15n9d0n7nxmbjwtnxs7","h-d-carlton-ucki","H.

Abby's Mindf*ck series — a dark, propulsive romantic thriller told in dual point of view and designed to be read in sequence, each book picking up where the last left off.\n\nLana Myers is beautiful, brilliant, and methodical. Years ago the men who assaulted her and destroyed her family walked free; now she is hunting them, one carefully chosen target at a time, leaving the authorities baffled. Logan Bennett is the sharp FBI profiler assigned to catch the killer — and he is falling hard for the very woman at the secret center of his own investigation.\n\nIn this volume, Logan is pulled between his unknowing pursuit of Lana and a second case: a sadistic predator the media has dubbed the Boogeyman, whose attention turns dangerously toward the woman Logan loves. Fast, twisty, and morally slippery, the Mindf*ck series is best binged straight through.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kqnas3fgzdrbj31eejx6rr0k.jpg","L7C~Ve~WS~IA~CM{xu9F3pE1Di9t","4.50",[969],{"id":970,"slug":971,"name":972},"01kqnarassaqeramyc0a4wb07g","st-abby-b6fh","S.T.

It provided me some insight into the whole issue of the Salem Witch trials and what it was like to live in that time period. The writing was very descriptive, which enabled me to have a clear picture of what was happening in the story. The language used is definitely not modern which is a clear indication that the author did her due diligence prior to writing this title. The characters were quite colourful and they helped to add flavour to the story. The people of Salem were a part of a religious group called the Puritans. They were of the belief that sexual sin, be it fornication or adultery was punishable by death. I believed them to be a set of religious hypocrites. My least favourite character is Rebecca. She is the town gossip and she sought to stir up trouble whenever she could. Then there were the Abbot children, who were quite devious in their actions and thoughts. They were responsible for spreading lies, with the help of other members of the town, about Lydia the female protagonist. These lies had dire consequences.\nLydia had come to Salem to escape her past. She had learned skills that enabled her to become the town's physician. Henry the male protagonist is a wealthy merchant who came to Salem searching for his brother. The relationship that developed between these two had started out on a lie but it became a force to be reckoned with. This story is a page turner. There was one particular incident I never saw coming when it happened I was like OMG it can't be.\nThis is a must read for lovers of historical romance.\nI was given an ARC to provide a honest review.","none","rv-01kxq7gkcfsxx3dpz113nfxs2h",[]]
