DISCLAIMER: I do not own and did not write this story. It is a copy of Original Book by Robert Louis Stevenson that I have uploaded here because it was way better to read than the PDF I was given in school. But I decided to let it stay here to help spread the book to wider audiences. Hope you enjoy. ----- Author: Robert Louis Stevenson Publisher: Longmans, Green and Co. Year: 1886 ----- It is about a London lawyer named Gabriel John Utterson who investigates strange occurrences between his old friend, Dr Henry Jekyll, and the evil Edward Hyde. The novella's impact is such that it has become a part of the language, with the very phrase "Jekyll and Hyde" coming to mean a person who is vastly different in moral character from one situation to the next. ------------

From tips to keeping a clean and healthy vagina, the ins and outs of your sexual desires and fantasy partners, and of course, everything you need to know about periods, I've got you covered. No worries, read on! *i believe all teens should be taught about this before puberty, made comfortable with the idea of themselves or others menstruating, being comfortable with their changing bodies and all the natural things that come along with puberty. I believe we shouldn't allow them to go through puberty blindly by themselves, this book is the guidance I wish I had during such a painfully awkward time. Perhaps it wouldn't have been so traumatizing for myself or others if we had a shred of guidance or knowledge. So please, read, educate yourself and others, help your struggling teen or your friend or younger sibling; recommend this book. This book is for educational purposes only and will not be rated seeing as it is educational health facts that should be taught to all, especially teens, not treated as if it is a top secret CIA program. I, myself, have found many helpful tips in here and I hope others can as well. I hope this book can bring guidance to some and peace to others. You're not alone. You're not weird. You're absolutely normal. We all go through the same things, just differently. Girl To Girl Vol. 2 is now published!

Wuthering Heights is a wild, passionate story of the intense and almost demonic love between Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff, a foundling adopted by Catherine's father. After Mr Earnshaw's death, Heathcliff is bullied and humiliated by Catherine's brother Hindley and wrongly believing that his love for Catherine is not reciprocated, leaves Wuthering Heights, only to return years later as a wealthy and polished man. He proceeds to exact a terrible revenge for his former miseries. The action of the story is chaotic and unremittingly violent, but the accomplished handling of a complex structure, the evocative descriptions of the lonely moorland setting and the poetic grandeur of vision combine to make this unique novel a masterpiece of English literature.
