Entered the Public Domain in 2022!The quintessential novel of the Lost Generation, The Sun Also Rises (Fiesta) is one of Ernest Hemingway's masterpieces and a classic example of his sparse but powerful writing style. A poignant look at the disillusionment and angst of the post-World War I generation, the novel introduces two of Hemingway's most unforgettable characters: Jake Barnes and Lady Brett Ashley. The story follows the flamboyant Brett and the hapless Jake as they journey from the wild nightlife of 1920s Paris to the brutal bullfighting rings of Spain with a motley group of expatriates. It is an age of moral bankruptcy, spiritual dissolution, unrealized love, and vanishing illusions. First published in 1926, The Sun Also Rises helped to establish Hemingway as one of the greatest writers of the twentieth century.…

Gilbert Markham is fascinated by Helen Graham, the beautiful and enigmatic woman who has recently moved into Wildfell Hall. He is swift to befriend her and steadfastly refutes the local gossip calling her character and behaviour into question, yet he soon has cause to regret his infatuation, and grave doubts and misgivings begin to arise in his mind. It is only when Helen presents Gilbert with her diary and instructs him to read it that the shocking truth about her past life becomes clear.Anne Brontë was the daughter of Maria (born Branwell) and Patrick Brontë, a poor Irish clergyman in the Church of England. Anne lived most of her life with her family at the parish of Haworth on the Yorkshire moors. Otherwise she attended a boarding school in Mirfield between 1836 and 1837, and between 1839 and 1845 lived elsewhere working as a governess. In 1846 she published a book of poems with her sisters and later two novels, initially under the pen name Acton Bell. Her first novel, Agnes Grey, was published in 1847 with Wuthering Heights. Her second novel, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, was published in 1848. The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is thought to be one of the first feminist novels.Anne died at 29, probably of pulmonary tuberculosis. After Anne's death her sister Charlotte edited Agnes Grey to fix issues with its first edition, but prevented republication of The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. This is one reason why Anne is not as well known as her sisters. Nonetheless both of Anne's novels are considered classics of English literature. Source:Wikipedia…

"I don't get it." He shook his head at me, his frustration clear in his eyes. "Why can't you just let yourself be happy, for once?""What makes you think I'm not happy?" I crossed my arms over my chest, my eyes narrowing into slits as I met his gaze, refusing to back down."Maybe the fact that you're always fighting with me?!" He gestured between us, as if this moment were all the proof he needed."You really don't get it." I scoffed. "Don't worry when I fight with you, worry when I stop because that means there's nothing left for us to fight for."*~*~*~*Bethany Watley has never had a easy life, but she has never let it stop her from fighting for what she wants.

"Doctor?" A very handsome, dark-skinned man asked."She's much like Reid." Hotch said, causing the men to nod. "Skipped four years of education, am I correct?""Five, actually." She corrected, hoping not to sound conceited."And what's your specialty, doll?" The same man asked."Morgan!" A blonde woman with colorful clothing reprehended. "Don't scare the girl off, already."Lily giggled slightly smiling at the woman before turning to the man. A small smirk playing on her lips."Well, handsome..." She said, forcing a laugh from the Morgan-guy. "I graduated in Psychology, have a Master's in Psychology and Linguistics and a PhD in Behavior Psychology.""Impressive."
