Ghost and Witch Vol. 1
Haunted by a monstrous presence that clings to her soul, a girl named Saku flees Japan and journeys across the sea to Ireland. There, she encounters a silver-haired witch who may offer her refuge. But the witch’s salvation comes at a price - and as Saku begins to face the power she’s long feared, her path shifts from escape… to transformation. This is the tale of a girl in flight...and the beginning of her journey to become a god.
Lyric Personhood
A new theory of personhood makes the case that a “person” has always been an aesthetic category, not just a legal, political, or moral one. What does it mean to be a person? One might think of the possession of certain rights, having the capacity for love, or being self-determined. But if words like “person” or “love” seem to carry an internal meaning, where does this meaningfulness come from? Lyric Personhood contends that to be encultured in the modern West is to learn, on top of everything else, an unspoken and mostly felt sense of what it means to be someone, a sense transmitted not only in language but also through encounters with aesthetic form. Through close readings that span nineteenth-century European opera, commercial cinema, and amateur YouTube proposal videos, Dan Wang shows that a “person” has become an aesthetic concept—and not just a legal, moral, political, or philosophical one—in the last two hundred years of Western culture. It’s hard to let go of the organizing promise of romantic love, the dream of therapeutic “health,” and the aspiration to belong to national culture, Wang argues, because these longings have been shaped by an archive of sentimental and melodramatic works that trains people's expectations for life, genre, and even the knowing promised in theory itself. Tracing a surprisingly continuous imagination of personhood through opera and film aesthetics, Lyric Personhood introduces modes of reading audiovisual works that allow a longer story to be told about the forms that make personhood sensible in the West.

The Girlfriend Zone
In my defence, I had no idea the tattooed, glasses-wearing, soulful hottie I spent one perfect day-and one unforgettable night-with was a hockey star on my father's team.
And Miles didn't know I was the coach's daughter.
That's the point of a "no-work-talk" date.
But now? He's as forbidden to me as I am to him.
When I land a new gig as the team photographer, we vow to keep it professional. Too much is at stake-I can't risk my heart or my father's team.
But when I end up living at Miles's place to care for his pack of rescue pups, the lines and I discover there's more to him than I ever imagined-a man who's genuine, thoughtful, and irresistibly real.
My heart's getting dangerously attached. But if I follow it… am I putting everyone's dreams on the line?
Tropes:
- ice hockey romance
- coach's daughter
- the one who got away
- second chance romance
- age gap
- forbidden romance

San Antonio and Its Missions
Characterizing San Antonio’s five Spanish colonial–era missions as “sites of memory,” author and historian Joel Daniel Kitchens explores how and why Spain built the missions, what happened to the missions after the Spanish colonizers left, and how and why the missions came to weigh so heavily in American imagination and identity, even into the twenty-first century. While the Alamo figures prominently in these discussions, nonetheless all five missions collectively are an enduring and deeply rooted part of the city’s cultural legacy, as recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site in 2015. This careful study aims to tease out the means and process by which the missions of San Antonio came to represent much more than the original religious and educational functions that began three centuries ago at what was then a remote site on the Spanish colonial frontier. Incorporating deep research into Spanish Colonial documents, census data, travel narratives, advertisements by railroad companies, tourist guides, and even the buildings themselves, San Antonio and Its Missions: Three Centuries of History, Memory, and Heritage adds nuanced layers of understanding to the ways in which these buildings and the stories they embody continue to contribute to cultural and historical memory.
The Lies That Summon the Night - Songs for the Sinless 1 (Paperback)
The darkest sins taste the sweetest...
Ever since art gave life to bloodthirsty shadows, creative works have been forbidden. The talented are sacrificed to the Sinless - the immortal royals who feast on human blood.
Inana's secret storytelling nearly got her killed once, and she'll be damned if she's ever caught again. With a bounty on her head, she keeps to the city's dark underbelly where she earns a meager living from thrill-seeking patrons desperate to hear her illicit fiction.
Until a Shadowbane catches one of her performances...
Dominic is a half-Sinless monster hunter as fearsome as his prey. But the murderous shades he tracks aren't the only creatures with bloodlust; Shadowbanes must consume blood to survive. And to complete his hunt, he needs an artist to summon the shadows. Inana is just what he needs.
Dominic delivers an ultimatum: serve him or he'll claim her bounty. When survival is all Inana has left, the choice is clear. At least until she can betray him and leave him for dead...
As their tense alliance leads them into the heart of danger, dark secrets unravel - about each other, their world, and the threats they face. But the greatest risk of all is the desire growing between them. There's something more sinful than lust at play, and it could bring the world to its knees.

But her family and future were shattered there, and she vowed never to return—until news of her estranged mother’s illness forces her back twenty years later. Still reeling from her recent divorce, Eden has to confront her mom’s found family, including single father Caleb Connell, who blames Eden for the seismic rift that drove her away. But as they move beyond a battle of wills, Eden and Caleb discover shared wounds and intertwined histories—and succumb to an attraction that feels fated. When her mother’s condition worsens, Eden faces an impossible choice between the man she’s falling for and the mother she’s just beginning to forgive. And with time running out, Eden fears her decision will doom her to relive the aftershocks of past heartbreak.

The others are girls whose dead bodies recently washed up near the island. As a determined journalist starts asking questions, Katie’s carefully constructed life as a doctor’s wife and a mother begins to crack. Forced to recall her time with Frida, she is drawn back into a world of obsession, toxic first love and deadly secrets. Frida has many faces: victim, friend, spiritual leader.

For Artair isn't human: he's one of the Sleepless, cursed to share his body with an evil spirit. Lucian inhabits their body while Artair sleeps, and he is hell-bent on manipulating Elver for his dark purposes. But Elver is harbouring secrets too, and she has her own reasons for feigning an alliance with these two souls.
