The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, is an American children's novel written by author L. Frank Baum and illustrated by W. W. Denslow, originally published by the George M. Hill Company in Chicago on May 17, 1900. It has since been reprinted on numerous occasions, most often under the title The Wizard of Oz, which is the title of the popular 1902 Broadway musical as well as the iconic 1939 musical film adaptation. The story chronicles the adventures of a young farm girl named Dorothy in the magical Land of Oz, after she and her pet dog Toto are swept away from their Kansas home by a cyclone. The novel is one of the best-known stories in American literature and has been widely translated. Its groundbreaking success and the success of the Broadway musical adapted from the novel led Baum to write thirteen additional Oz books that serve as official sequels to the first story.

[WATTYS WINNER 2022] What's it like to have everything you ever wanted? To be utterly, ridiculously, completely HAPPY? Pretty worrying, actually. *** In this Watty Winning (!!) standalone sequel to "All Good Things", we visit Alice, her family and friends at the All Good Things cafe. A lot has changed in 5 years. Her marriage is back on track and steamier than ever... at least when there isn't a kid within earshot. Fortunately, the youngest is in the smelly grip of puberty himself and just wants to be alone. Their daughter, the entrepreneurial prodigy, went off to university only to return disillusioned by life, love and Kierkegaard. Good thing the cafe is still afloat... just about. It's hard to make ends meet when you're trying to change the world, one plant-based latte at a time! Just as things are starting to look a little dire, Alice becomes an unwitting TikTok sensation and kids all over the city start copying her moves. Now, a corporate chain wants a piece of the action and Alice will have to decide whether she can stomach a return to the soul-suck of corporate life in order to keep her dream alive. [[70,000 words]]

That is, until Haley catches a glimpse of Xavier's reality and is made to question everything she knows about family and life in general. The truth, she realizes, couldn't be more different from everything she has heard. Supported by her father, Haley sets her mind on helping Xavier any way she can, and what begins with tutoring sessions, free food, and random acts of kindness blooms into friendship and something a little more. But when Haley's admission into her dream college and another tragedy in Xavier's life threaten to undo everything she has worked for, Haley needs to decide if she'll stick by Xavier or simply be another person in his life that disappears.

When Lee Young-Joon, a filthy rich, narcissistic, good-looking CEO of Yumyung Group learns the fact that his trusty secretary Kim Mi So, who has worked by his side for the past nine years, wants to quit, he gets quite a shock. Determined to keep her by his side, Lee Young-Joon offers her many things, yet she refuses each time. As time passes, he becomes more and more stubborn and upset. Frankly, he should have let it go. He shouldn't care all that much. He could just find another, right? But there is this nagging feeling that is haunting him. And all those feelings aren't only bringing sadness with them, but old memories he does not want to remember, too. You see, there is much more to Lee Young-Joon than what meets the eye. And as far as Kim Mi So knows, Lee Young-Joon is only trying to keep her by his side for his own benefit, the narcissism getting the best of him. But she, too, has memories of her own. And once she starts digging through them, maybe the thought of staying doesn't sound as bad. But is the only thing keeping them together memories? Or does something else form along the way? This book is based on the Korean TV series "What's wrong with secretary Kim?" and follows the (hopefully) exact same plot and characters as the series. The content written is my own, but not the plot and characters. I hope you enjoy this book, and let yourself become lost in the story as the characters develop before your eyes. Thank you for reading. Read at your own risk. I wouldn't recommend this book to readers aged 15 and under.
