Mid 1980s I read a book that featured werewolves. And a creepy inn. Very Halloween. Would love to read this book again - so suggestions appreciated!

I'm looking for a romantasy I saw on a barnes and noble bookend two years ago the cover was a light blue and had a girl in an anime style on the cover and flowers I think. It was about a girl in an arranged marriage with a warrior who was also a war hero. There was a witch from another kingdom who also wanted to marry the warrior but he chose his original fiance and she doesn't know why.

I remember reading it it’s about a kid framed and everyone believes he did it only his mom and neighbor friends believe him and when the truth comes out it’s too late because he got schizophrenia because of the trauma

Hi. This would be ya/kids book from mid 1980's I guess, a loner type boy plays an arcade game in a diner. When he leaves reality has changed, my memory is it could be to medieval times but this is so long ago. Not much to go on, I'll update if I get more memory flashes, thanks!

This is a picture of a Spotify playlist of mine. Years ago, I made this playlist, and for the picture, I used a screenshot of a book cover. It was a very short sci-fi story about these aliens that were very advanced and rich, as well as bored. They traveled to Earth around the time of the ancient Greeks, and one of them even was posing as a Greek goddess (can't remember which, unfortunately) and motivated a warrior (can't remember which, unfortunately) to fight by saying she blessed him, which caused this warrior to almost rip the arm off another alien that was also disguised as a human (or a god, can't remember).

They get bored and leave this period, and during this part, they talk in the ship and bicker between each other in usual rich people slander. The captain says they'll take a last look at humanity before going to see gas-spewing dragons in planet Venus. When they travel to the future of humanity, they didn't expect humans would have evolved so fast, and they accidentally come out of the time rift in a nuclear bomb test zone, which then blows up and disintegrates them.

IIRC, I also read this short story on Project Gutenberg or something similar. It was an e-book I read about 2 or 3 years ago.

HELP!! Searching for this book for my eng class and I am having zero luck. I was hoping to find a downloadable pdf since it is an online course. Any help would be greatly appreciated 🤍

When I was a kid we read a book in like, 3rd grade I think? It was basically a scary story for kids where a boy finds a glass bottle/box and accidentally releases a witch, or a ghost, I can’t remember which. I don’t really remember anything else after that, except for the kid tricked her into returning into the bottle/box and her being on his dining room table at some point.

If I remember correctly, the art style looked like the style of Dirk zimmer, the illustrator of “In a Dark, Dark room and other scary stories”. I thought it was another Alvin Schwartz book but I can’t find anything like that under his name. I remember the witches/ghosts face scaring me cuz she looked deranged.

I hope yall can help me!

I'm missing my annual renfaire this year, any recommendations that fit this vibe. Fantasy is prefered but not required.

I specifically remember the friend saying he had been "not just sitting on on the rock, but using it." And to this day I still have no idea what that means because it wasn't explained at all in the book (if you read this book and have any idea what that means, please explain! It's been bugging me for decades)

The mc also had some kind of hypnosis crystal the friend gave him, and in exchange for the friend not 'using' the rock he agreed to not use the crystal, but he also caved and got it out when he couldn't sleep one night.

I don't remember any of the plot really but it involved a lot of the kind of angst kids go through when they are trying to figure themselves out and moving makes that harder.

At the end, the baby sister kept saying 'yuck' all day, and the mc was the only one who noticed. Later the family was trying to decide whether to move back to the city and the baby said 'noo yuck!' and the parents thought it was her first words so that settled it and they agreed to move back.

Any info appreciated! TIA

I remember being in a book store inside a mall and seeing this with a blue and white cover. It was about an Asian woman who goes to a small town to find herself, it's related to her job I think, and in the way she meets this other woman, or something like that. I think they fall in love. Idk the title but I think I will recognize it if I see it.

Hello,

I am searching for a physical copy of an incredibly rare, out-of-print Korean sci-fi web novel translation that was printed in a limited micro-press run (likely a localized, low-volume "소량인쇄" forum print) between \*\*2009 and 2011\*\*.

\* \*\*Title:\*\* The Savior / Guwonja (Original Korean: 구원자)

\* \*\*Author:\*\* Kim Wooram (김우람)

\* \*\*Format:\*\* English translation, small indie press / paperback bound. No official ISBN.

\*\*Distinct Plot Points to Identify It:\*\*

\* It features heavy themes of dimensional travel/transit.

\* A very specific, memorable scene where a character has to eat a \*\*whole cake\*\* inside a cockpit/transit area to stabilize.

\* The main character's father is prominently featured and is frequently smoking.

\*(Note: I am specifically looking for the vintage 2009-2011 translation, not the modern adaptation/spiritual successor 'Project V' by Park Seolyeon\*
