animal farm
George Orwell · 1996
of mice and men
John Steinbeck · 2025
Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck recounts the tale of two uprooted traveler laborers, George Milton and Lennie Little, during the Economic crisis of the early 20s in California. George is little, sharp-witted, and defensive of his friend, Lennie, who is, serious areas of strength for enormous, intellectually debilitated. Together, they fantasy about possessing a little homestead, a dream that gives them trust regardless of their cruel reality. In any case, Lennie's absence of command over his solidarity prompts a sad mishap when he unexpectedly kills a lady, constraining George to go with a deplorable choice to shield Lennie from a horde. The novel investigates subjects of fellowship, dejection, dreams, and the brutality of life for underestimated people.

the bell jar
Sylvia Plath · 2005
<p><i>The Bell Jar</i> chronicles the crack-up of Esther Greenwood: brilliant, beautiful, enormously talented, and successful, but slowly going under -- maybe for the last time. Sylvia Plath masterfully draws the reader into Esther's breakdown with such intensity that Esther's insanity becomes completely real and even rational, as probable and accessible an experience as going to the movies. Such deep penetration into the dark and harrowing corners of the psyche is an extraordinary accomplishment and has made <i>The Bell Jar</i> a haunting American classic.</p> <p>This P.S. edition features an extra 16 pages of insights into the book, including author interviews, recommended reading, and more.</p>

if we were villains
M. L. Rio · 2018
<p><b>“Much like Donna Tartt’s <i>The Secret History</i>, M. L. Rio’s sparkling debut is a richly layered story of love, friendship, and obsession...will keep you riveted through its final, electrifying moments.”<br>—Cynthia D’Aprix Sweeney, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>The Nest<br></i></b><br><b>"Nerdily (and winningly) in love with Shakespeare...Readable, smart.”</b><br><b>—<i>New York Times Book Review</i></b><br><br>On the day Oliver Marks is released from jail, the man who put him there is waiting at the door. Detective Colborne wants to know the truth, and after ten years, Oliver is finally ready to tell it.<br><br>A decade ago: Oliver is one of seven young Shakespearean actors at Dellecher Classical Conservatory, a place of keen ambition and fierce competition. In this secluded world of firelight and leather-bound books, Oliver and his friends play the same roles onstage and off: hero, villain, tyrant, temptress, ingénue, extras. <br><br>But in their fourth and final year, good-natured rivalries turn ugly, and on opening night real violence invades the students’ world of make-believe. In the morning, the fourth-years find themselves facing their very own tragedy, and their greatest acting challenge yet: convincing the police, each other, and themselves that they are innocent. <br><br><i>If We Were Villains</i> was named one of Bustle's Best Thriller Novels of the Year, and <i>Mystery Scene</i> says, "A well-written and gripping ode to the stage...A fascinating, unorthodox take on rivalry, friendship, and truth."</p>
sunrise on the reaping
Suzanne Collins · 2025
<p> </p> <p>“Sunrise on the Reaping is a propulsive, heart-wrenching addition to The Hunger Games, adding welcome texture to the cruel world of Panem . This is the project of dystopian fiction: to shine a light in tyranny's greasiest corners and show how people - ordinary, determined human beings - might take it apart” - New York Times</p> <p>“Collins is an excellent writer, and there are moments of surprising lyricism . Sunrise on the Reaping contains enough both to snare new readers and to satisfy the most bloodthirsty fan” - Guardian</p> <p> When you've been set up to lose everything you love, what is there left to fight for? </p> <p>As the day dawns on the fiftieth annual Hunger Games, fear grips the districts of Panem. This year, in honour of the Quarter Quell, twice as many tributes will be taken from their homes.</p> <p>Back in District 12, Haymitch Abernathy is trying not to think too hard about his chances. All he cares about is making it through the day and being with the girl he loves.</p> <p>When Haymitch's name is called, he can feel all his dreams break. He's torn from his family and his love, shuttled to the Capitol with the three other District 12 tributes: a young friend who's nearly a sister to him, a compulsive oddsmaker, and the most stuck-up girl in town.</p> <p>As the Games begin, Haymitch understands he's been set up to fail. But there's something in him that wants to fight . . . and have that fight reverberate far beyond the deadly arena.</p> <ul> <li>Four books, five films and one worldwide phenomenon, The Hunger Games original trilogy changed the face of global YA and <i>The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes</i> was an instant number one bestseller (Nielsen Bookscan, May 2020).</li> <li>All four of the Hunger Games novels have been made into major feature films, starring Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth, Rachel Zegler, Tom Blyth and Peter Dinklage.</li> <li>A feature film for Sunrise On the Reaping - the fifth book in the Hunger Games series - is slated for November 2026</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p>OTHER BOOKS IN THE SERIES</p> <ul> <li>The Hunger Games</li> <li>The Hunger Games illustrated edition released in October 2024</li> <li>Catching Fire</li> <li>Mockingjay</li> <li>The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes</li> </ul> <p> </p>
