D. Salinger's only novel has become one of the defining portraits of adolescent alienation in American literature. Over the course of a few restless winter days, sixteen-year-old Holden Caulfield narrates his flight from Pencey Prep — the latest boarding school to expel him — into the streets of New York City, where he drifts from hotel bars to Central Park, from an old teacher's apartment to a carousel in the rain, unwilling to go home and face his parents.\n\nHolden's voice is the novel's engine: caustic, funny, evasive, and quietly grieving. He rails against the \"phoniness\" of the adult world while circling the losses he can barely name — chief among them the death of his younger brother — and clings to a fantasy of protecting childhood innocence, imagining himself as the \"catcher in the rye\" who keeps children from falling off a cliff.\n\nA landmark of postwar fiction and a perennial fixture of banned-book lists, The Catcher in the Rye endures because Holden's confusion, tenderness, and refusal to grow up still read as painfully honest. It is a short, deceptively simple book about depression, connection, and the terror of leaving childhood behind.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01ktfjh91467zf34j97snhn4z0.jpg?v=14021383c2","LGJ%]:9ZR.s:~TR-WBofA0n$s,j=",1951,"4.00",6,256,[118,122],{"id":119,"slug":120,"name":121},"01kjqxgs07cx76zherew1q7czv","shao-jia-yun-b2ex","Shao jia yun",{"id":123,"slug":124,"name":125},"01kjqxgryhnattzqhsc3cmzvr2","j-d-salinger-bxn6","J.

That changes when his parents enroll him in fifth grade at Beecher Prep.\n\nWonder follows Auggie's first year among classmates who stare, whisper, and sometimes cruelly exclude him — and the handful who become true friends. Told in turn by Auggie and the people around him, including his fiercely protective older sister Via and his friends Jack and Summer, the novel widens its lens so that we see the same events from many sides.\n\nR.J.

He knows every prime number up to 7,057, cannot bear to be touched, and reads faces and social situations only with great effort. When he discovers his neighbour's dog, Wellington, killed with a garden fork, he decides to investigate the crime and to write a murder-mystery novel about it — modelled on the Sherlock Holmes stories he loves.\n\nChristopher's methodical inquiry, though, keeps leading him past the dog and into the far more bewildering territory of his own family. As he uncovers things his father would rather he never knew, his careful, ordered world is upended, and he is forced onto a terrifying journey that takes far more courage than any maths problem.\n\nNarrated entirely in Christopher's precise, literal, and often very funny voice, Mark Haddon's The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time is a crossover phenomenon and a modern classic. It is a mystery, a coming-of-age story, and a compassionate portrait of a mind that works by its own uncompromising logic.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01ksy8annmsbbd0dg58jh156j6.jpg","LGP1mY|^As}Es.jtazfQxZoLNbS3",2003,242,[201],{"id":202,"slug":203,"name":204},"01kjq7ryvxn6v8arfewnchsxxb","mark-haddon-lbp8","Mark Haddon",[206,210,211,215,218,219,220,224],{"id":207,"name":208,"slug":209,"is_fiction":19},14,"Plays","plays",{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},{"id":212,"name":213,"slug":214,"is_fiction":19},61,"YA","ya",{"id":115,"name":216,"slug":217,"is_fiction":19},"Mystery","mystery",{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":134,"name":135,"slug":136,"is_fiction":19},{"id":221,"name":222,"slug":223,"is_fiction":18},94,"Animals","animals",{"id":167,"name":168,"slug":169,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":61,"complexity":7,"audience":64,"mood":227,"themes":229,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[67,102,228],"tense",[145],{"id":231,"slug":232,"title":233,"description":234,"primary_cover_url":235,"cover_blurhash":236,"first_publish_year":9,"community_rating_avg":237,"community_rating_count":115,"page_count":238,"authors":239,"genres":244,"series":264,"enrichment":269},"01kjq809rtm83625vmjegpr6de","the-seven-husbands-of-evelyn-hugo-2mb1","The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo","Aging Hollywood icon Evelyn Hugo, now a reclusive septuagenarian, finally decides to tell the truth about her glamorous and scandalous life. To do it she summons Monique Grant, an unknown magazine writer, and offers her the story of a lifetime — an exclusive biography that will only be published after Evelyn's death.\n\nOver a series of long afternoons, Evelyn recounts her rise from a poor Cuban neighborhood in Hell's Kitchen to the pinnacle of mid-century stardom: the seven marriages that made headlines, the ruthless ambition that fueled her career, and the one great love she spent her whole life protecting. As the confession deepens, Monique begins to wonder why Evelyn chose her, and what the fading star still stands to gain by telling everything.\n\nTold largely through Evelyn's own unflinching voice, Taylor Jenkins Reid's novel is a story about the cost of fame, the compromises women make to seize power in a world designed against them, and the difference between the public image and the private heart.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjz5s63redz87wyv08b9b8ah.jpg","LGCP^JIuU{KK}ZS6wMS2MLkWpGi{","3.67",400,[240],{"id":241,"slug":242,"name":243},"01kjq809s1bz8jkha881zbv9c5","taylor-jenkins-reid-jk5i","Taylor Jenkins Reid",[245,249,250,251,255,259,260],{"id":246,"name":247,"slug":248,"is_fiction":18},88,"Biography","biography",{"id":138,"name":139,"slug":140,"is_fiction":19},{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},{"id":252,"name":253,"slug":254,"is_fiction":19},4,"Romance","romance",{"id":256,"name":257,"slug":258,"is_fiction":19},36,"LGBTQ+ Romance","lgbtq-romance",{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":261,"name":262,"slug":263,"is_fiction":19},144,"Women's Fiction","womens-fiction",[265],{"id":266,"slug":267,"name":268,"position":185,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kve2ck560hws5hr6hqne7fwn","the-seven-husbands-of-evelyn-hugo-universe-pysh","The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo Universe",{"pace":61,"complexity":7,"audience":64,"mood":270,"themes":271,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[102,100],[272,273],"secret-identity","dual-timeline",{"id":275,"slug":276,"title":277,"description":278,"primary_cover_url":279,"cover_blurhash":280,"first_publish_year":281,"community_rating_avg":282,"community_rating_count":283,"page_count":284,"authors":285,"genres":290,"series":303,"enrichment":304},"01kjq71n05sqb13c026rs91ema","girl-in-pieces-xobp","Girl in Pieces","Seventeen-year-old Charlotte \"Charlie\" Davis has already lost more than most people lose in a lifetime: her father, her home, her best friend, and any real sense of safety.

But independence at seventeen is precarious, and the people she leans on — including a charismatic, self-destructive older musician — carry their own damage. As Charlie fights to stay standing, she must decide whether survival is enough, or whether she can actually build a life worth wanting.\n\nUnflinching and deeply compassionate, Girl in Pieces is a raw portrait of self-harm, addiction, and homelessness, and a hard-won story about the slow, imperfect work of healing.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjz60afwjj4zhgx435423gkp.jpg","LHReBR%2~V%2V[ayxtoekCjte:a|",2016,"3.50",1,416,[286],{"id":287,"slug":288,"name":289},"01kjq71n1xse729e4jmmsrt355","kathleen-glasgow-jjmt","Kathleen Glasgow",[291,292,296,297,298,302],{"id":212,"name":213,"slug":214,"is_fiction":19},{"id":293,"name":294,"slug":295,"is_fiction":19},63,"YA Contemporary","ya-contemporary",{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":299,"name":300,"slug":301,"is_fiction":19},15,"Drama","drama",{"id":134,"name":135,"slug":136,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":61,"complexity":7,"audience":305,"mood":306,"themes":307,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},"young_adult",[101,100,189],[145],{"id":309,"slug":310,"title":311,"description":312,"primary_cover_url":313,"cover_blurhash":314,"first_publish_year":315,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":316,"authors":317,"genres":322,"series":348,"enrichment":352},"01kjss78qrnfgtq8strvf63pds","fight-club-0e9o","Fight Club","An unnamed narrator drifts through corporate life plagued by insomnia and a numbing sense of emptiness, medicating his despair with support-group meetings for illnesses he doesn't have and a catalogue-perfect apartment full of things he doesn't need.

Charlie is a watchful, tender narrator, but his letters slowly reveal the grief and trauma he carries — the recent suicide of a friend and buried memories that surface as the year goes on.\n\nFrank about depression, abuse, sexuality, and the strange exhilaration of belonging, The Perks of Being a Wallflower has been both widely beloved and frequently challenged.

Hanya Yanagihara writes with an intimacy that makes the reader complicit in both the tenderness and the devastation.\n\nSweeping, immersive, and profoundly painful, A Little Life is an unflinching examination of friendship, trauma, and the limits of human repair.

It builds to an ending readers rarely forget.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kkfjek4vrn4y7g8yakpspwk9.jpg","LBJ5[myX0~5Q005k1@bbLM;8}toy","3.17",209,[674,678],{"id":675,"slug":676,"name":677},"01kjraxaz8z2rssbjtsep0efpd","agustina-bazterrica-rd1b","Agustina Bazterrica",{"id":679,"slug":680,"name":681},"01kkc4xrrxp5ab4pzsvnqzgxn9","sarah-moses-en5j","Sarah Moses",[683,684,687,691,692],{"id":324,"name":325,"slug":326,"is_fiction":19},{"id":391,"name":685,"slug":686,"is_fiction":19},"Horror","horror",{"id":688,"name":689,"slug":690,"is_fiction":19},28,"Dystopian","dystopian",{"id":63,"name":346,"slug":347,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":61,"complexity":7,"audience":64,"mood":695,"themes":696,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[101,228],[],{"id":698,"slug":699,"title":700,"description":701,"primary_cover_url":702,"cover_blurhash":703,"first_publish_year":527,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":704,"authors":705,"genres":714,"series":722,"enrichment":723},"01kkfh3tw964cw9cdj8rvsvq5e","le-desastre-de-la-maison-des-notables-lqcg","Le désastre de la maison des notables","Spanning over fifty years of Tunisian history, this ambitious novel explores the lives of two prominent families and their entanglement with a scandal from 1935.

Then her own long-term relationship collapses without warning, and she finds herself doing something she has spent her career recommending to others: sitting on the other side of the room, in a state of crisis, seeing a therapist of her own.\n\nThe book braids Gottlieb's sessions with her wry, unsparing therapist, Wendell, together with the stories of four of her own patients. There is John, an abrasive Hollywood producer convinced everyone around him is an idiot; Julie, a young newlywed forced to reckon with a devastating diagnosis; Rita, approaching seventy and haunted by regret; and Charlotte, a twenty-something caught in self-defeating patterns. As their lives unfold, the line between healer and patient blurs, and Gottlieb turns the same searching attention on herself.\n\nFunny, humane, and quietly profound, Maybe You Should Talk to Someone is a memoir about the strange intimacy of therapy and a wide-ranging meditation on change, mortality, and meaning. It demystifies what actually happens in the consulting room and makes a persuasive case that self-examination, however uncomfortable, is where real change begins.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01krc3nnsqrv5190t1stsry2g8.jpg","LfKLO2nOGdxtLNX8r:jI6UX9ngae",2019,432,[854],{"id":855,"slug":856,"name":857},"01kjqv65jvxypftfvtt0mt15j6","lori-gottlieb-rhlz","Lori Gottlieb",[859,860,861,865,866,867,871,875,876],{"id":246,"name":247,"slug":248,"is_fiction":18},{"id":167,"name":168,"slug":169,"is_fiction":18},{"id":862,"name":863,"slug":864,"is_fiction":18},95,"Self-Help","self-help",{"id":163,"name":164,"slug":165,"is_fiction":18},{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},{"id":868,"name":869,"slug":870,"is_fiction":18},72,"Self-Help & Psychology","self-help-psychology",{"id":872,"name":873,"slug":874,"is_fiction":18},86,"Essays","essays",{"id":498,"name":499,"slug":500,"is_fiction":18},{"id":502,"name":503,"slug":504,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":61,"complexity":7,"audience":64,"mood":879,"themes":880,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[67,102,66],[],{"id":882,"slug":883,"title":884,"description":885,"primary_cover_url":886,"cover_blurhash":887,"first_publish_year":9,"community_rating_avg":888,"community_rating_count":63,"page_count":889,"authors":890,"genres":895,"series":910,"enrichment":915},"01kjt54yxvtkzqw8cxhbgtvksa","eleanor-oliphant-is-completely-fine-vmvb","Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine","Eleanor Oliphant has her routine down to a science: the same meal-deal lunch, the same crossword, the same bottles of vodka to get her through the weekend, and a Wednesday phone call with Mummy that she dreads. She has no friends, doesn't understand social cues she considers unnecessary, and has convinced herself she's perfectly fine.\n\nThat carefully maintained isolation starts to give when she and Raymond, the scruffy IT technician from her office, help an elderly man who collapses on the pavement in front of them. Their unlikely friendship — along with a harmless celebrity crush that spirals into something more serious — begins pulling Eleanor toward people for the first time in years.\n\nBeneath the deadpan humor of Eleanor's narration is a slower reveal of real trauma: a childhood defined by an abusive, manipulative mother and a fire that changed everything. Gail Honeyman's debut is a comic novel that turns, without much warning, into a serious one — about what loneliness does to a person, and what it takes to let someone in.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks\u002F01\u002F01kjt54yxvtkzqw8cxhbgtvksa.jpg","LsIrQenOHDXT^MaeI=W=V@R,oJbH","4.60",352,[891],{"id":892,"slug":893,"name":894},"01kjt54z27as7q24j19qyynqsw","gail-honeyman-eesm","Gail Honeyman",[896,900,901,902,903,904,905,909],{"id":897,"name":898,"slug":899,"is_fiction":19},33,"Contemporary Romance","contemporary-romance",{"id":129,"name":130,"slug":131,"is_fiction":19},{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":252,"name":253,"slug":254,"is_fiction":19},{"id":342,"name":343,"slug":344,"is_fiction":19},{"id":906,"name":907,"slug":908,"is_fiction":19},120,"Comic Fiction","comic-fiction",{"id":261,"name":262,"slug":263,"is_fiction":19},[911],{"id":912,"slug":913,"name":914,"position":185,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kve2ehts0fz65kq9xe6bwjad","eleanor-oliphant-h7nm","Eleanor Oliphant",{"pace":61,"complexity":7,"audience":64,"mood":916,"themes":917,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[67,100,66],[441],{"id":919,"slug":920,"title":921,"description":922,"primary_cover_url":923,"cover_blurhash":924,"first_publish_year":769,"community_rating_avg":925,"community_rating_count":252,"page_count":926,"authors":927,"genres":932,"series":938,"enrichment":939},"01kjy9cwvd29bta06dcykmskpv","remarkably-bright-creatures-chro","Remarkably Bright Creatures","Tova Sullivan is in her seventies, widowed, and still shadowed by the disappearance of her teenage son Erik, who vanished from a Puget Sound town thirty years ago and was presumed drowned.

A reaper named Mei escorts him not to some grand afterlife but to Charon's Crossing, a ramshackle tea shop tucked between mountains at the edge of a small village. There he meets Hugo Freeman, the shop's owner and a ferryman whose job is to help the dead make peace with their passing and move on through a door at the top of the stairs.\n\nGiven only seven days before he must cross over, Wallace is forced to reckon with a life he spent working and a heart he kept closed. Under the Whispering Door is a quiet, warm-hearted fantasy about grief, second chances, and learning how to live only after it seems too late. T.J. Klune surrounds Wallace with a found family of the living and the dead — Hugo, the reaper Mei, Hugo's ghostly grandfather Nelson, and a spectral dog named Apollo — and lets an unlikely, tender romance grow between a man who wasted his life and the ferryman trying to give him a gentle ending.\n\nComforting rather than morbid, the novel treats death, loss, and even suicide with a light, humane touch, offering readers a cozy meditation on what makes a life worth having lived.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01knsybmmz9jg67641dbbaxbcp.jpg","LFCHs7xvD*u401a_vzRP|?sRbFen",2021,[976],{"id":977,"slug":978,"name":979},"01kjsvqbzncnye4v99xvxx7n2v","t-j-klune-hfbu","T.

Wry, guarded, and impatient with the platitudes that surround the dying, she attends a support group mostly to appease her mother. There she meets Augustus Waters, a confident seventeen-year-old in remission from osteosarcoma who lost part of a leg to the disease and who is preoccupied with the fear of leaving no mark on the world.\n\nTheir friendship turns into a tentative, clear-eyed romance built on shared humor, a love of books, and an unwillingness to pretend that illness is noble. Hazel's favorite novel, An Imperial Affliction, ends mid-sentence, and Augustus arranges a trip to Amsterdam so the two can ask its reclusive author what happens to the characters after the final page.\n\nJohn Green writes about young people facing mortality without sentimentality or easy uplift. The Fault in Our Stars is a story about first love, the search for meaning, and the difference between being remembered and being loved while you are here. Sharp and funny as often as it is devastating, it became one of the defining young-adult novels of its decade.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjq81jyys7q17nxxanmnynmf.jpg","LME;QIS85tba00WB%Mof1Bxn$eRp","4.13",157,[1005],{"id":369,"slug":370,"name":371},[1007,1008,1009,1010,1011,1012,1013],{"id":167,"name":168,"slug":169,"is_fiction":18},{"id":134,"name":135,"slug":136,"is_fiction":19},{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},{"id":252,"name":253,"slug":254,"is_fiction":19},{"id":299,"name":300,"slug":301,"is_fiction":19},{"id":293,"name":294,"slug":295,"is_fiction":19},{"id":897,"name":898,"slug":899,"is_fiction":19},[1015],{"id":1016,"slug":1017,"name":998,"position":185,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kve2ny54c67mrrsza37nxmch","the-fault-in-our-stars-wwsw",{"pace":61,"complexity":7,"audience":305,"mood":1019,"themes":1020,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[100,67],[],{"id":1022,"slug":1023,"title":1024,"description":1025,"primary_cover_url":1026,"cover_blurhash":1027,"first_publish_year":974,"community_rating_avg":1028,"community_rating_count":391,"page_count":366,"authors":1029,"genres":1034,"series":1043,"enrichment":1051},"01kjr36348efxpzn9xx6j77xmc","before-the-coffee-gets-cold-uwh9","Before the Coffee Gets Cold","In a small basement café in Tokyo, there is a seat that offers something no other café can: the chance to travel back in time. The rules, however, are strict and unforgiving. You can only meet people who have also visited the café; you cannot leave your chair; nothing you do in the past will change the present; and you must return before your coffee gets cold.\n\nOver four interwoven stories, a handful of customers choose to sit in that seat anyway. A woman confronts the man who left her; a wife tries to reach her husband before his memory fades to illness; a sister waits for a sibling she cannot forgive; a mother reaches for a child she will never get to raise. None of them can rewrite what has happened—but each discovers that revisiting a single moment can still change the heart, if not the facts.\n\nToshikazu Kawaguchi's gentle, bittersweet novel began as a stage play and has become an international bestseller. Quiet and character-driven, Before the Coffee Gets Cold is a meditation on regret, second chances, and the small comforts that let us carry our losses forward.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjz49tv4w0dy4pmcpbcyfcda.jpg","L5Ma^a~V^+K*009a9a-o3WkW9ZM{","3.86",[1030],{"id":1031,"slug":1032,"name":1033},"01kjr3634czxspaqb6b84aggvy","untitled-elop","川口俊和",[1035,1036,1040,1041,1042],{"id":616,"name":617,"slug":618,"is_fiction":19},{"id":1037,"name":1038,"slug":1039,"is_fiction":19},30,"Time Travel","time-travel",{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":365,"name":536,"slug":537,"is_fiction":19},[1044,1048],{"id":1045,"slug":1046,"name":1047,"position":185,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kmrw94gvtnst4enxsq7j38p1","untitled-f2dj","コーヒーが冷めないうちに",{"id":1049,"slug":1050,"name":1024,"position":185,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kjr3636nd1m1j5nrbxe8szfg","before-the-coffee-gets-cold-6cur",{"pace":438,"complexity":7,"audience":64,"mood":1052,"themes":1053,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[102,100,989],[965],{"id":1055,"slug":1056,"title":1057,"description":1058,"primary_cover_url":1059,"cover_blurhash":7,"first_publish_year":1060,"community_rating_avg":1061,"community_rating_count":391,"page_count":238,"authors":1062,"genres":1067,"series":1074,"enrichment":1075},"01kpae2pceanqhvyxh521v782t","yesteryear-kwx5","Yesteryear","Natalie Heller Mills has built an empire on nostalgia. To her millions of followers, she is the perfect “tradwife”: baking sourdough, raising her children on a sun-dappled ranch, and modeling a wholesome life supposedly stripped of modern excess. What the camera never shows are the nannies, the producers, and the industrial appliances humming just out of frame. Then a public scandal detonates her carefully managed image — and Natalie wakes to find herself trapped in a brutal, unforgiving version of 1855. The ranch is now a freezing cabin without plumbing or heat; the children who answer to her are strangers; and the household is ruled by an archaic, menacing version of her own family. Forced to actually live the pioneer existence she once performed for views, she tries to work out whether she is the victim of an elaborate hoax, a twisted reality show, or something far stranger. Burke’s debut threads social satire through psychological suspense, using Natalie’s predicament to interrogate the performance of womanhood, the machinery behind influencer culture, and the seductive lie of “the good old days.” Sharp, claustrophobic, and darkly comic, the novel asks what is left of a person once the curated self collapses and the audience is gone.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kpae2pf0c191n2b8xat0jyn9.jpg",2026,"4.29",[1063],{"id":1064,"slug":1065,"name":1066},"01kpae2pevm0pxeghtgq1r7715","caro-claire-burke-o2yn","Caro Claire Burke",[1068,1069,1070,1071,1072,1073],{"id":63,"name":346,"slug":347,"is_fiction":19},{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},{"id":329,"name":330,"slug":331,"is_fiction":19},{"id":338,"name":339,"slug":340,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":138,"name":139,"slug":140,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":353,"complexity":7,"audience":64,"mood":1076,"themes":1077,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[228,67],[71],{"id":383,"slug":384,"title":385,"description":386,"primary_cover_url":387,"cover_blurhash":388,"first_publish_year":389,"community_rating_avg":390,"community_rating_count":391,"page_count":392,"authors":1079,"genres":1081,"series":1088,"enrichment":1090},[1080],{"id":395,"slug":396,"name":397},[1082,1083,1084,1085,1086,1087],{"id":400,"name":401,"slug":402,"is_fiction":18},{"id":212,"name":213,"slug":214,"is_fiction":19},{"id":293,"name":294,"slug":295,"is_fiction":19},{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":134,"name":135,"slug":136,"is_fiction":19},{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},[1089],{"id":410,"slug":411,"name":385,"position":185,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},{"pace":61,"complexity":7,"audience":305,"mood":1091,"themes":1092,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[100,102,101],[415,145],{"id":107,"slug":108,"title":109,"description":110,"primary_cover_url":111,"cover_blurhash":112,"first_publish_year":113,"community_rating_avg":114,"community_rating_count":115,"page_count":116,"authors":1094,"genres":1097,"series":1103,"enrichment":1104},[1095,1096],{"id":119,"slug":120,"name":121},{"id":123,"slug":124,"name":125},[1098,1099,1100,1101,1102],{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":129,"name":130,"slug":131,"is_fiction":19},{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},{"id":134,"name":135,"slug":136,"is_fiction":19},{"id":138,"name":139,"slug":140,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":61,"complexity":7,"audience":64,"mood":1105,"themes":1106,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[102,100],[145,146],{"id":1108,"slug":1109,"title":1110,"description":1111,"primary_cover_url":1112,"cover_blurhash":1113,"first_publish_year":527,"community_rating_avg":1114,"community_rating_count":115,"page_count":1115,"authors":1116,"genres":1129,"series":1133,"enrichment":1138},"01kk3nbn194hbgs6hr9q8yytc0","my-dark-vanessa-d1h5","My Dark Vanessa","In 2000, fifteen-year-old Vanessa Wye is a lonely, bookish scholarship student at a Maine boarding school when her forty-two-year-old English teacher, Jacob Strane, begins singling her out for attention. What Vanessa experiences as a secret, intoxicating love affair is, from any other angle, the grooming and abuse of a child by a man in a position of power.\n\nThe novel moves between that year and 2017, when a former student's public accusation against Strane, amplified by a growing cultural reckoning, forces the adult Vanessa to reexamine the story she has told herself for nearly two decades. Refusing easy answers, Kate Elizabeth Russell writes from deep inside Vanessa's contradictions — her insistence that she was special, that she consented, that it was love — even as the reader sees what she cannot yet let herself see.\n\nMy Dark Vanessa is a harrowing, precisely observed debut about memory, complicity, and the long afterlife of abuse.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kk3nbn62qhbgt96qhw3m8jnb.jpg","LBHx$$kCt7%M~qIT9FD%-p_3-;%M","4.83",384,[1117,1121,1125],{"id":1118,"slug":1119,"name":1120},"01kk3nbn38365ew0cqdmx0g464","kate-elizabeth-russell-sjez","Kate Elizabeth Russell",{"id":1122,"slug":1123,"name":1124},"01kk3nbn3p0qnhhqr9bqn407y4","grace-gummer-jauf","Grace Gummer",{"id":1126,"slug":1127,"name":1128},"01kk3nbn44weqk4pf5y60s69x2","russell-kate-elizab-kpjc","Russell Kate Elizab",[1130,1131,1132],{"id":29,"name":30,"slug":31,"is_fiction":19},{"id":329,"name":330,"slug":331,"is_fiction":19},{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":19},[1134],{"id":1135,"slug":1136,"name":1137,"position":185,"is_main_entry":19,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kvbwekf53we3hhhds5veawpe","standalone-daex","Standalone",{"pace":61,"complexity":7,"audience":64,"mood":1139,"themes":1140,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[101,102],[273,146],[]]
