About Book: Love is the aria of the soul. Charlotte Sapori has led a wonderful life, safely tucked in the bosom of her family. Her mother, Irene Adler, is a renowned opera singer, while her father, Lucca Sapori, does important government work that frequently takes him away from them. Charlotte is close to her older brother, Nicco, and they are both doted on by their parents. All is well until her mother receives an unexpected diagnosis which shakes the family to its core. Knowing herself to be dying, Adler confesses to Charlotte things that have long been kept from her, telling her to find and read her diary. A distressed Lucca Sapori tells his daughter to read his as well. And by the way, Lucca Sapori is not his real name. In fact, she may have heard of him—he is actually the world-famous detective, Sherlock Holmes. Charlotte finds both diaries and plunges into the hidden world of Irene Adler and Sherlock Holmes as she discovers what brought them together, and how they managed to stay

About Book: A quirky philosophical novel Precocious, 13-year-old Klara Tippins lives in a refurbished convent in upstate New York with her cumbersome and unwholesome family. She has a mission of which she is only vaguely aware and, though her star family is there to help, she’s not convinced of their presence and can’t remember the guidance they give her while she sleeps. Her inability to remember her dreams is understandable though regrettable, as growing up in a household with a psychopath is anything but easy. The general advice, of what to do when one encounters a person without conscience, is to get away from them. But what do you do when a predator is right there as you take your first steps and you have nowhere to run? What advice does a star family have to give? As Klara navigates the perplexing morals of her disconnected family, she encounters three different belief systems (Hinduism, Quakerism, and Q'ero Shamanism) that set her on a journey of self-discovery. A heartfelt

The Story: Novum Albion had been the melting pot of the world, where cultures, intellect, ideas, and even freedom defined the young nation. Yet, many no longer had the hope that once defined Novum Albion. Sadly, inspiration and confidence drained from the land. Hope became nothing more than feeble happiness, and happiness turned to selfish desires. Selfish desires turned to greed, and greed turned into numbness to life. Many citizens of Novum Albion were trapped in their own minds, yet they were still filled with pride, though they accomplished nothing. As the young of the land grew ignorant of their identity and their past, the very fiber of the home started to unwind, and uncertainty and ignorance in every aspect of life began to grow. Thus Lapidius, a martial institute for children, found a place among the offspring of the compromised nation. And though it would be hard for some to think a school could be home for its students, it was just that for many. My Take: Lapidus is the firs
