I love being a Storyteller, and going back home to the village of Angeline. What I don't love is Cassius... my supposed soulmate. He's brash, opinionated, and I would rather die alone than be with him. There had to be a way to stay a Storyteller, and not be around Cassius Boik, because I can't imagine a worse fate than being Alison Boik.

Seven guests. Three courses. One evening they'll never forget... Seven strangers meet at Serendipity's for an anonymously hosted dinner party. As the evening reaches its close, small black envelopes are placed in front of the diners... revealing the age at which each will die. Spooked, but not wholly shaken, the group disperses into the rainy night with the hope of forgetting the ghoulish stunt. But two weeks later, one dinner guest dies at the age foretold.

In this funny, photo-packed short read (11,000 words), George Mahood and his partner, Rachel, take on their longest run yet: a 100-mile ultramarathon along the chalk ridges of the South Downs Way. From blazing sunshine to long hours of darkness, the cut-off clock never stops.This is ultra running at its most honest: excruciating blisters, emergency toilet stops in the bushes, too many crisps, dodgy stomachs, and the creeping realisation that signing up may have been a spectacularly stupid idea. There are meltdowns, feet so sore that every step hurts, stubborn cows, and the lift only the camaraderie of other runners – and the kindness of amazing volunteers – can give.It's also a celebration of the South Downs Way and the best of the English countryside.Told with dry humour and clear, honest detail about pacing, fuelling and mindset, Did Not Sleep is perfect for fans of trail running, endurance challenges, and true...

London, 1848—For four hundred years, England has been under the control of an immortal fae queen who tricked her way onto the throne. To maintain an illusion of benevolence, Queen Mor grants each of her subjects one opportunity to bargain for their deepest desire. As Ivy Benton prepares to make her debut, she knows that not even a deal with the queen could fix what has gone wrong: Her family’s social standing is in shambles, her sister is a shadow of her former self, and Ivy’s marriage prospects are nonexistent. So when the queen announces a competition for Prince Bram’s hand, Ivy is the first to sign her name in blood. What a bargain can’t fix, a crown certainly could. Ivy soon finds herself a surprising front-runner—with the help of an unexpected ally: Prince Bram’s brother, the rakish Prince Emmett, who promises to help Ivy win his brother’s heart…for a price. But as the season sweeps Ivy away, with glittering balls veiling the queen’s increasingly vicious trials, Ivy realizes there’s more at stake than just a wedding. Because all faerie bargains come with a cost, and Ivy may have discovered hers too late.
