Great Expectations is written in the genre of "bildungsroman" or the style of book that follows the story of a man or woman in their quest for maturity, usually starting from childhood and ending in the main character's eventual adulthood. Great Expectations is the story of the orphan Pip, writing his life from his early days of childhood until adulthood and trying to be a gentleman along the way. The story can also be considered semi-autobiographical of Dickens, like much of his work, drawing on his experiences of life and people.

"Two can keep a secret... if one of them is under the stone." In the ancient, mist-shrouded town of Cloisterham, prestige is a mask and loyalty is a death sentence. Edwin Drood is the golden boy with a pre-arranged future. John Jasper is the respected music master with a soul rotting from opium and obsession. And Helena Landless is the outsider-a girl with a predator's instincts and a heart tied solely to her twin brother, Neville. When Edwin disappears on the night of the century's worst storm, the town cries for blood. Neville is the prime suspect, trapped in a blackout he can't explain. But behind the closed doors of the Cathedral gatehouse, a deadlier game is being played. Manipulated by a madman and fueled by a desperate need to protect her brother, Helena must navigate a labyrinth of guilt and gaslighting. But as the mysterious Dick Datchery arrives to unearth the truth, the "Shadow of the Spire" begins to close in. How far would you go to save the only person who loves you? And can you ever truly bury the past when gold doesn't rot?

"On June 5, at 4:45pm, I will be hit by a bus. On June 5, at 9:05am, I get hit by a door." Malika is a recent college graduate in desperate need of a job (and health insurance). The corporate world, however, is not what she expected. Two satirically different companies offer her financial security, but one offer comes at the price of her life and the other comes at the price of her soul. How can she possibly choose? Can't she just never get sick and not need health insurance or something? Does anyone actually like their job, anyway?

This is the story of some kids, with their Scout Elves, Elf Pets and many other North Pole friends helping a Teenage boy and his sister in a Christmas Carol journey to learning life lessons and what Christmas is all about. Santa even helps in this journey. I could use some help with this story. Leave ideas in the comments and if you're Elf on the shelf fan, your knowledge will definitely come in handy. I had this idea for a Elf on the shelf adaptation of A Christmas Carol with kids seeing their elves and pets moving and talking to them. Together they help an adult rekindle their spirit of Christmas. I do think that's an idea, if the owners of Elf on the shelf want to do another movie then this is an idea. Don't own Elf on the shelf.
