Orang bilang, nama adalah doa. Menamakan seorang anak Satria berarti mendoakan anak itu menjadi gagah dan berani. Tapi Satria sama sekali tidak berani. Apalagi gagah. Setelah rentetan peristiwa yang terjadi dua tahun silam, Satria justru merasa dirinya pecundang paling besar di dunia. Terutama sejak ia melihat Laras hidup kembali. [kolaborasi dengan @expellianmus]

[Formerly Featured!] Coming back from a vacation, with a gun pointed at her head was definitely not what Jean Saunders expected. Especially seeing a man flying around in the air, claiming to be the city's superhero. At least he wasn't wearing that embarrassing spandex outfit. Alas, due to her capability for getting into trouble, the city's superhero eventually recognises her and not in a good way, at all. Catching a superhero's attention is never a good thing. -------------------------- Opening and closing his mouth, he made some gestures as if he was trying to speak but he couldn't find the words to convey his message. "...what are you?" He finally managed to speak and I blinked my eyes at him. The heck? Does he think I am some sort of...alien? It's not like I'm some kind of weird species! What the heck does he think I am? "I'm human!" I said, narrowing my eyes at him. --------------------------

Marie wanted to be as good as her mother wanted. Since her older brother was diagnosed with autism, she is considered the family's "normal" child. She thus feels she must be perfect in every way, which soon turns out to be a haunting task. Desperate for love and to make sense of her mother's contradictory behaviors and spiritual changes (from her mother's infidelities and alcoholism to a strict religious cult, and back again), Marie starts a friendship with a make belief friend, Ana. Ana is beautiful, loving, all-knowing and lives in an older version of Marie's house. Ana is the best friend one could hope for...that is until she encourages you to pursue a life threatening path. A book loosely based on my life: my relationship with my mother, my father, my autistic brother and my sister; my life in a cult; and my battle with anorexia. Nevertheless, this book is a work of fiction (imaginary friend, haunted house, mystical creatures, paranormal, etc).

But when one theft too many gets her arrested, her only means of escape lies with a dead man. Charlie hasn't raised a spirit since she first discovered she could do so five years ago. That time, her father banished her. This time, she brings even more trouble upon herself. People are now hunting Charlie all over London, but only one man succeeds in capturing her. Lincoln Fitzroy is the mysterious head of a secret organization on the trail of a madman who needs a necromancer to control his newly "made" creatures. There was only one known necromancer in the world - Charlotte - but now there appears to be two. Lincoln captures the willful Charlie in the hopes the boy will lead him to Charlotte. But what happens when he discovers the boy is in fact the young woman he's been searching for all along? And will she agree to work for the man who held her against her will, and for an organization she doesn't trust? Because Lincoln and his ministry might be just as dangerous as the madman they're hunting.

When culture tells us what is appropriate, we accept it as the "views of the time". However, when do we, as human beings, draw the line of this popular acceptance? When--after we have questioned the structures of society--do we begin to stand up for our findings and challenge authority? Metro Riverton, a highly intelligent, dramatically arrogant teenage boy, is faced with these questions when he begins to think critically about the society he lives in. Is it fair to categorize people into the class they were born in? Should society be allowed to assume a person's strengths, weaknesses, and intellect based purely on their genetics and the caste of their parents? Take a journey with Metro--the famed "super kid" of his time--as he developes strong friendships, learns of new enemies, and discovers himself. Who knows? Maybe you'll find Metro has allowed you to open your own eyes--thinking critically and questioning your previous beliefs like never before. +-+-+-+-+ ❥ Thank you to my friend @-ariarose- for the lovely cover. ❥

~complete~ Charlotte is as sweet as a strawberry. She's the kind of person who will drop everything just to help you, just to put a smile on your face. She's as sweet as the sugar that constantly runs through her bloodstream, and as excitable as the rush that comes with it. And then there's Benjamin, who's as sour as a lemon. The last thing on this Godforsaken planet he wants to do is acquaint himself with her. While Charlotte is kind and caring, he's rude and vulgar, while she's friendly and innocent, he's crass and mean. So how in the hell is that going to turn out?

Soren McKinin; the disappointment of the family, the child his parents wished did not belong to them, the type fathers warned their daughters not to date.

So Soren would fall, he'd fall unnoticed and unwanted. He would fall just like snow.
