I loved it and started to buy one of his books: Planting, a new perspective by Piet Oudolf and Noel Kingsbury. Proud of “our” landscape designer, known for his use of plants in a natural garden. This beautiful park on the westside of Manhattan, built on a historic, elevated rail line had been in the (dutch) garden magazines with a lot of attention to Piet Oudolf.

With a silver bead on her left temple and her eyes glazed like those of an amped-out meth junkie, Judy Snyder perched on the sofa, knees together, hands folded serenely in her lap. His gaze shifted back and forth between two points of interest: his wives. Except for his twitching fingers and the tremors, which were both involuntary, he did not move, not even to change position in the chair, because he had been told to be still. He had been ordered to remain silent, and he had lost the power to disobey. Instantaneous chemical cauterization of flesh and bone prevented bleeding. The bead was in fact packed with electronics, nanocircuitry, and was rather like the head of a nail in that it was the visible portion of a needle-thin probe that had been fired into his brain by a pistol-like device. As rounded and as polished as the head of a decorative upholstery tack, it looked like a misplaced earring. On his left temple, a silvery bead gleamed. His mouth hung slightly open, and his lower lip trembled almost continuously. He sat stiff, erect, his hands upturned in his lap. Owl-eyed and terrified, Warren Snyder occupied an armchair in his living room. Part modern fairy tale, part science-fiction myth, The Iron Man describes the unexpected arrival in England of a mysterious giant metal man who wreaks havoc on the countryside by attacking the neighbouring farms and.

Callie never had time for love, and with the apocalypse coming closer, is there room for romance when all hell's about to break loose?įeatured on Buzzfeed, SweetyHigh, The Nerd Daily, and more! "Delightful mythological elements and laugh-out-loud humor make this a light-hearted, feel-good paranormal romcom. But what Callie doesn't know is that Luke is none other than Luke Morningstar, Prince of Hell and son of the Devil himself. As the group tries to stay one step ahead of the cult, Callie finds herself drawn to the annoying (and annoyingly handsome) Luke. But when the summoning reveals a handsome demon in a leather jacket named Luke who offers to help Callie stop the cult from destroying the world, her night goes from weird to completely strange.

From New York Times bestselling author Gwenda Bond, Not Your Average Hot Guy is a hilarious romantic comedy about two people falling in love, while the fate of the world rests on their shoulders. Harrow, Hugo Award-winning author A paranormal romantic comedy at the (possible) end of the world. "Fun, funny, hot, and heartfelt.The apocalyptic beach read that everyone needs." - Alix E. And tough-looking Alix Townsend - that's Alix with an i - is learning to knit her blanket for a court-ordered community service project. For Carol Girard, the baby blanket brings a message of hope as she and her husband make a final attempt at in vitro pregnancy. She disapproves of the woman married to her only son, but if she knits a baby blanket, she can at least pretend to like her pregnant daughter-in-law. Jacqueline Donovan, the first woman to join the class, is estranged from her husband her marriage has dwindled into an arrangement of separate rooms and separate lives. It represents her dream of a new beginning, a life free from the cancer that has ravaged her twice. Lydia Hoffman owns the shop, which she calls A Good Yarn. How to knit a baby blanket: that's the first lesson. You go there to buy yarn, knitting supplies and patterns - and now you can join a knitting class. There's a little shop on Blossom Street in Seattle. At times, I could quote what the characters were about to say. I, however, found it a little too close to the play which I had studied twice in college. The story of Cyrano is a beautiful one, and McCaughrean does a good job of creating a vehicle to tell the story to readers who are unable to read or see the play. Roxanne is so much in love with Christian that she never realizes that his words are actually Cyrano's until it is too late. When she confesses that she likes a new member of his regiment, Cyrano jumps at the chance of helping her love Christian, woo her through letters and witty conversation. However, he believes she could never return his love due to his long and ugly nose. Cyrano is a poet hopelessly in love with his cousin Roxanne. It's good that she cites the novel as being from the play by Edmond Rostand as much of the story is almost word for word from the play, and a lot of the action close to that in the movie.Ĭ yrano is a timeless story involving the ultimate love triangle. Geraldine McCaughrean has taken Edmond Rostand's immortal play, Cyrano, and turned it into a novel. Nicholas is eager to prove himself capable of providing for his family, so he takes the job despite his reservations about Mr. Squeers, and finds Kate a job with a dressmaker, Madame Mantalini. He quickly finds Nicholas a job at a boarding school, Dotheboys Hall, run by a man named Mr. He hardly registers his own brother’s death and believes his in-laws to be a nuisance. Ralph is a ruthless businessman with little compassion. First, the family appeals to Nicholas’s estranged uncle, Ralph. Nicholas is now responsible for the well-being of his widowed mother and his beautiful sister Kate. Nicholas Nickleby’s father dies unexpectedly amidst a financial downfall. Content Warning: The source material contains depictions of child abuse, sexual harassment, and suicide. Overall, I enjoyed the novel and highly recommend. The book was written during the pandemic and the author did a great job portraying the feelings of what is like to live through these events and uncertain times. Just like her previous works, this book is beautifully crafted with engaging characters and an interesting plot. I absolutely enjoyed the story and there are easter eggs from Station Eleven which I didn’t expect but was ecstatic to find. This novel takes place in different times periods but has a character in common in every timeline, how? time travel! I loved Station Eleven and was eager to get my hands in this book by the same author. John Mandel | Expected publication Ap| 272 pages | Goodreads |
