After braving the Fire Elementals’ trial, Yuto and his companions welcome their newest member, Himka, into the fold. As a change of pace from their dungeon crawling, the group heads to Zone Three to search for new materials and to get to know the four local towns. During their quest, Yuto unsurprisingly strikes gold again, stumbling upon a previously undiscovered secret location. With the addition of yokai to the game, new creatures lie in store for Yuto and his monsters to encounter: the adorable Obake, the playful and fun-loving Zashiki-Warashi, and many, many more.

LJO–aka Law of Justice Online–is the newest full-dive VRMMORPG to hit the market, and office worker Yuta—or Yuto, as he goes by in the game—is ready to spend his whole vacation immersing himself in the experience. His dream is to become the strongest Tamer, commanding the most powerful monsters, and he’s even willing to shell out the cash to do so! But when he arrives in the world of LJO for the first time, Yuto is shocked to find that the special monster he planned to leave all the fighting to is...a monster dedicated to farming—without a shred of combat ability? Despite it all, Yuto quickly decides that his adventures in this world will involve way less fighting epic battles and way more harvesting plants, as he prepares to take the game at his own pace and with his adorable, trusty companion by his side!

Despite the newfound infamy his titles have brought him, Yuto has been enjoying his MMO life, unconcerned with his reputation. With the birth of Bear-Bear, a new tamed monster hatched from an egg acquired at the Magical Beasts Guild, Yuto finds himself surrounded by a growing herd of adorable critters. Unbeknownst to Yuto, however, a group of players who have had their eyes on him, hoping to learn what secrets Yuto knows about the monsters, have begun laying plans of their own...

The event celebrating the arrival of second-wave players has come to an end, and Yuto has emerged with a decked-out house and a slew of prehistoric mascots. Now he’s back to taking care of his farm, ready to test out Rick’s new Forest Sorcery skill. While it comes in handy for farming, the skill turns out to also have a surprising ability: it can summon a demon! Bracing for a fight, Yuto enlists some help, only for things—as always—to take an unexpected turn... Afterwards, Yuto makes the most of his return to the main game by visiting a traditional Japanese town, challenging the Earth Elementals’ trial again with friends old and new, continuing a quest chain, and much more.

A stunning, multigenerational story about two teenagers: Victoria, who joins the circus in 1965, and her granddaughter, Callie, who leaves the circus fifty years later. Perfect for fans of This is Us. In 1965 seventeen-year-old Victoria, having just escaped an unstable home, flees to the ultimate place for dreamers and runaways--the circus. Specifically, the VanDrexel Family Circus where, among the lion tamers, roustabouts, and trapeze artists, Victoria hopes to start a better life. Fifty years later, Victoria's sixteen-year-old granddaughter Callie is thriving. A gifted and focused tightrope walker with dreams of being a VanDrexel high wire legend just like her grandmother, Callie can't imagine herself anywhere but the circus. But when Callie's mother accepts her dream job at an animal sanctuary in Florida just months after Victoria's death, Callie is forced to leave her lifelong home behind. Feeling unmoored and out of her element, Callie pores over memorabilia from her family's days on the road, including a box that belonged to Victoria when she was Callie's age. In the box, Callie finds notes that Victoria wrote to herself with tips and tricks for navigating her new world. Inspired by this piece of her grandmother's life, Callie decides to use Victoria's circus prowess to navigate the uncharted waters of public high school. Across generations, Victoria and Callie embrace the challenges of starting over, letting go, and finding new families in unexpected places.

With preparations for the first ever Martial Arts Tournament already underway, the devs of LJO are gearing up to launch a secondary event for Yuto and other crafter-types like him.

During his stay in the village, he encounters Siegfried, the Purple-Haired Adventurer, and decides to team up with him. However, things are not as straightforward as they seem, and more chaos looms on the horizon for Yuto and his companions...

Helen Simpson's third collection is a bold, honest exploration of the trials and the rewards of motherhood. ‘Her stories are - for those who, like me, recognise the truth in every word - like a reprieve... Sharp, poetic and marvellously witty’ Kate Kellaway, Observer Here are tales of a highflyer stuck at an interminable Burns Night celebration, increasingly aware of the babysitter waiting for her at home; an exhausted mother longing for adult conversation but whose son unwittingly precludes it; and a teenage girl whose fraught encounter with a harried mum of one brings newfound appreciation for her own capable mother of four. Most strikingly of all we meet Dorrie, whose efforts to calm her tinderbox of a family leave her struggling to contain her own emotions. Hey Yeah Right Get a Life is a singular achievement: relatable, perceptive and utterly poignant. ‘It's a brilliant, painful, funny and courageous book’ Esther Freud, Guardian

MEETING MY FATED MATE WAS MAGICAL. Then he rejected me, threw me in the trunk of his car, and sold me into a backwater fighting club full of rabid werewolves. My pack and family have no idea I'm in danger and my inner-wolf is still crying over the guy who rejected me, so I'm on my own. At least I think so, until I realize I have the ability to tame rabid shifters. But I have no idea how to use it--and accidentally end up with a dozen crazed wolves protecting me like I'm their favorite chew toy. The only other sane trapped werewolf is a sexy, infuriating jerk who calls himself Knockout. He might be my ticket out of the fight club, but I don't know if I can trust him. And even if I can, those dozen werewolves who think I'm theirs to protect? They're not letting go. I have to find a way out before I get too attached to the rabid wolves around me... Especially Knockout. Or the gift that's keeping me alive just might become my undoing. *This new adult urban fantasy features sass, cinnamon rolls, and slow burn romance. It is NOT reverse harem.
