Rosie Talbot • 2024
“HEARTSTOPPER pero con fantasmas” BookTok<br/><br/>UNA NOVELA DARK JUVENIL LGTBIQA+<br/><br/>PERFECTA PARA LOS LECTORES DE ALICE OSEMAN Y V.E. SCHWAB.<br/><br/>EN LA EMBRUJADA CIUDAD DE YORK<br/><br/>INCLUSO LOS MUERTOS TIENEN ALGO QUE TEMER.<br/><br/>Alguien está haciendo desaparecer los espíritus en la ciudad más embrujada de Europa, York. Cuando Charlie Frith, un vidente de 16 años, se da cuenta de que uno de sus amigos fantasmales ha desaparecido, debe dejar de lado su propia seguridad y su existencia solitaria si desea encontrarlos. Charlie se une a regañadientes a Sam Harrow, el nuevo vidente de la ciudad, y a un grupo heterogéneo de fantasmas, para salvar a sus amigos de un destino literalmente peor que la muerte. Pero hay un propósito oscuro detrás de estas desapariciones, y más siniestro de lo que Charlie podría haber imaginado. A medida que acepta lentamente sus sentimientos románticos hacia Sam, la búsqueda se convierte en un camino contrarreloj en el que todo estará en juego.<br/><br/>«La frase “Heartstopper pero con fantasmas” resume perfectamente esta novela.» Charley Robinson «Es muy fácil enamorarse de Dieciséis almas. Fantasmas victorianos, un misterio delicioso, el ambiente seductor de York, una amistad y un romance queer irresistibles. Ojalá pudiera volver a leerlo por primera vez.» Dawn Kurtagich<br/><br/>ENGLISH DESCRIPTION<br/><br/>The spooky, swoony YA debut by BookTok star, Rosie Talbot (@Merrowchild) -- the "TikTok Made Me Buy It" sensation dubbed Heartstoppers with ghosts! Perfect for fans of V. E. Schwab and Aiden Thomas.<br/><br/>Sixteen-year-old Charlie Frith has problems. His crush is dating someone else, his sisters have glitter-bombed his prosthesis (again), and he's a seer-of-spirits in York, the most haunted city in England, and all his friends are ghosts.<br/><br/>To make matters worse, it seems that famous spirits are mysteriously vanishing from York's haunted streets and alleys. Charlie is determined to stay out of it, but Sam, the irritating new seer in town, expects him to track down who -- or what -- is responsible and uncover the dark purpose behind these disappearances.<br/><br/>But when one of Charlie's ghostly friends vanishes, he has no choice but to face the shadows -- and his growing feelings for Sam. The boys must be willing to risk it all to save York’s spirits, because this adversary will stop at nothing to complete their devastating plan. Afterlives are at stake, and Charlie is running out of time ...

Maurice
E. M. Forster • 2011

At Cambridge he meets Clive, who opens his eyes to a less conventional view of the nature of love. Yet when Maurice is confronted by the societal pressures of life beyond university, self-doubt and heartbreak threaten his quest for happiness.

Todos somos villanos
M.L. RIO • 2020
El día que Oliver Marks cumple su condena, el hombre que lo puso en la cárcel está esperándolo a la salida. El detective Colborne quiere saber la verdad y, después de diez años, Oliver finalmente está listo para contársela. Una década atrás: Oliver es uno de los siete actores shakespearianos en el Conservatorio Clásico Dellecher, un lugar donde rige la cruda ambición y la competencia feroz. En este mundo apartado, de chimeneas encendidas y libros con encuadernación de cuero, Oliver y sus amigos interpretan los mismos papeles arriba y abajo del escenario: el héroe, el villano, el tirano, la seductora, la ingenua, los extras. Pero en su cuarto y último año de conservatorio, las rivalidades amistosas se vuelven desagradables, y en la noche de estreno, la violencia real invade el mundo de fantasía de los estudiantes. Por la mañana, los chicos de cuarto año deben enfrentar su propia tragedia y su desafío actoral más difícil: convencerse unos a otros y a la policía de que son inocentes. / Oliver Marks is released from jail after ten years and Detective Colborne who put him there is waiting at the door. He wants to know the truth. Oliver was one of seven young actors who played the same roles onstage and off: hero and villain. One day they faced their own tragedy and their greatest acting challenge: convince the police and themselves they were innocent.

Boyfriend Material
Alexis Hall • 2020
A feel-good queer romantic comedy that New York Times and USA Today bestselling author CHRISTINA LAUREN calls "hilarious, witty, tender, and stunning." Luc needs a fake boyfriend. Oliver needs a date. It's the perfect plan… until real feelings get involved. Luc O'Donnell is a certified disaster. Tabloid drama, a wayward rock-star dad, and a trail of messy relationships have left his public image in ruins. The fix? A staged romance with the most respectable man he knows: Oliver Blackwood—uptight, principled, and infuriatingly perfect. It's supposed to be fake. Neither of them expects the awkward photo ops and staged brunches to turn into something that feels real. But as the lines blur, and secrets slip through carefully built walls, Luc must face the question he's always avoided: what if someone could love him—exactly as he is? You'll love its brilliantly British rom-com voice, full of sharp humor and emotional vulnerability and authentic LGBTQIA+ representation. It's perfect for fans of Red, White & Royal Blue and The Charm Offensive, with its grumpy/sunshine dynamics and slow-burn chemistry. "It's a fun, frothy quintessentially British romcom about a certified chaos demon and a stern brunch daddy with a heart of gold faking a relationship."—New York Times bestselling author Talia Hibbert AMAZON BEST BOOK OF THE MONTH Named a best book of the year by Oprah Magazine, Entertainment Weekly, Goodreads, The Washington Post, and more!
