The chief beauty of this book lies not so much in its literary style, or in the extent and usefulness of the information it conveys, as in its simple truthfulness. Its pages form the record of events that really happened. All that has been done is to colour them; and, for this, no extra charge has been made. George and Harris and Montmorency are not poetic ideals, but things of flesh and blood—especially George, who weighs about twelve stone. Other works may excel this in dept of thought and knowledge of human nature: other books may rival it in originality and size; but, for hopeless and incurable veracity, nothing yet discovered can surpass it. This, more than all its other charms, will, it is felt, make the volume precious in the eye of the earnest reader; and will lend additional weight to the lesson that the story teaches. [more]

'We have all been more or less to blame ... every one of us, excepting Fanny' Taken from the poverty of her parents' home, Fanny Price is brought up with her rich cousins at Mansfield Park, acutely aware of her humble rank and with only her cousin Edmund as an ally. When Fanny's uncle is absent in Antigua, Mary Crawford and her brother Henry arrive in the neighbourhood, bringing with them London glamour and a reckless taste for flirtation. As her female cousins vie for Henry's attention, and even Edmund falls for Mary's dazzling charms, only Fanny remains doubtful about the Crawfords' influence and finds herself more isolated than ever. A subtle examination of social position and moral integrity, Mansfield Park is one of Jane Austen's most profound works. This edition is based on the first edition of 1814. It includes a new chronology, additional suggestions for further reading and the original Penguin Classics introduction by Tony Tanner [more]

Is there such a thing as luck? Eve McAllister doesn't think so. . . . Which is a major faux pas during Cliffcoast's annual St. Patty’s Day Festival where good luck charms, green clothing, and haggis are the staple. (The enormous Scottish and Irish population has nothing to do with it--trust me.) So when she starts to get the feeling that she is being followed, her family gets an unexpected windfall of luck, and clover begins sprouting everwhere she goes, Eve is a little more than creeped out. And she should be. Such things are signs of leprechauns--and leprechauns are nothing but bad news. Out of Luck occurs a half a year after Eve McAllister discovered that she was not an ordinary girl, but a supernatural creature inclined to bite necks and cause mischief. However, Eve’s actual good nature leads her into fiascos almost worse than if she gave into her demonic appetites. HallowedSpell Vimp Novella, Book 4 [more]

Marvin Quenton Fuster has had an interesting day. Very early on, he is rousted by a cop, and so flips him off...escaping miraculously. A bit later Esmeralda at the Salvation army Mission nearly lassos him in his naked state in the men's shower. He barely escapes her "charms", intent on finding the love of his (dream) life, Amy. He thinks an angel has told him she is to be found at the Governor's Mansion, and so he goes there seeking her. Instead, Anselm, the angel, jams his brain with nearly every classic book ever written. Overload. Marvin collapses in the driveway and is rescued by the governor's daughter, Maribeth. Now her mission is to get him into the mansion where he can read the scientific books he's stolen. The problem is, introducing her new pet, her genius, to her mother and father... Walking down the rear hall in the Mansion, Marvin and Maribeth hear voices coming from the main hall. When Marvin turns the corner, he stops in shock, dropping the stolen books... Cast: Marvin Quenton Fuster-alcoholic derelict-turned-genius. Maribeth Harris-The governor's daughter, Marvin's rescuer. Richard and Trish Harris-The governor and his wife. The Major-Head of the Salvation Army Mission nearby. The Cop-the cop. Anselm-Marvin's angel, sent to "lift him out of the ashes" of his life.

"An Acorn Fell From An Old Oak Tree, And Lay On The Frosty Ground-- 'O, What Shall The Fate Of The Acorn Be?' Was Whispered All Around By Low-Toned Voices Chiming Sweet, Like A Floweret'S Bell When Swung-- And Grasshopper Steeds Were Gathering Fleet, And The Beetle'S Hoofs Up-Rung." Mrs. Seba Smith. There Is A Wide-Spread Error On The Subject Of American Scenery. From The Size Of The Lakes, The Length And Breadth Of The Rivers, The Vast Solitudes Of The Forests, And The Seemingly Boundless Expanse Of The Prairies, The World Has Come To Attach To It An Idea Of Grandeur; A Word That Is In Nearly Every Case, Misapplied. The Scenery Of That Portion Of The American Continent Which Has Fallen To The Share Of The Anglo-Saxon Race, Very Seldom Rises To A Scale That Merits This Term; When It Does, It Is More Owing To The Accessories, As In The Case Of The Interminable Woods, Than To The Natural Face Of The Country. To Him Who Is Accustomed To The Terrific Sublimity Of The Alps, The Softened And Yet Wild Grandeur Of The Italian Lakes, Or To The Noble Witchery Of The Shores Of The Mediterranean, This Country Is Apt To Seem Tame, And Uninteresting As A Whole; Though It Certainly Has Exceptions That Carry Charms Of This Nature To The Verge Of Loveliness.
