Who We Were
Summary
My Papai always said wine made everything better. Countless times he uttered those familiar words to me: "The Merlot will melt your problems away, meu amor. With a good bottle of wine in your hand, you hold the magical key to anything you want." I believed my father wholeheartedly, until my world came crashing down on me at 24 years old. It wasn't going to take wine to help Brody and I find our way back to one another. It was going to take fighting...not only for our love - but for my life.

Infinity Reaper
Summary
In this gripping sequel to the New York Times best-selling Infinity Son, Adam Silvera brings a diverse cast of heroes and villains to life in an alternate New York where some people are born with powers, while others steal them from the blood of endangered magical creatures. Emil and Brighton defied the odds. They beat the Blood Casters and escaped with their lives - or so they thought. When Brighton drank the Reaper's Blood, he believed it would make him invincible, but instead the potion is killing him. In Emil's race to find an antidote that will not only save his brother but also rid him of his own unwanted phoenix powers, he will have to dig deep into the very past lives he's trying to outrun. Though he needs the help of the Spell Walkers now more than ever, their ranks are fracturing, with Maribelle's thirst for revenge sending her down a dangerous path. Meanwhile, Ness is being abused by Senator Iron for political gain, his rare shifting ability making him a dangerous weapon. As much as Ness longs to send Emil a signal, he knows the best way to keep Emil safe from his corrupt father is to keep him at a distance. The battle for peace is playing out like an intricate game of chess, and as the pieces on the board move into place, Emil starts to realize that he may have been competing against the wrong enemy all along.

The Death of Ivan Ilych
Summary
This short but powerful novel was acclaimed by Vladimir Nabokov and Mahatma Gandhi as the greatest in the whole of Russian literature. It is one of Tolstoy's most celebrated pieces of late fiction. At the center of the story is an examination of the nature of both life and death and how man can come to terms with death's inevitability. It was widely acclaimed when it was published in 1886 and remains a compelling narrative today. The Death of Ivan Illyich is a small book with singular depth of insight and is considered to be one of the great explorations of death and dying in all of Western literature. No author in so few words summons so many emotions.

Die Jungen von Burg Schreckenstein
Summary
Die Schulraumsituation in Neustadt ist unerträglich geworden und es gibt nur eine Lösung: Ein Teil der Schüler muss mit Sack und Pack auf die Burg Schreckenstein umziehen. Das Leben in den alten Gemäuern mit Burgfried, Zugbrücke, Geheimgängen und vor allem der Folterkammer zeigt schnell seinen Einfluss auf die Jungs - sie wollen den ehemaligen Bewohnern nacheifern und stellen eines Nachts ihre Ritterregel auf: "Ich will auf Schreckenstein allzeit fair und ehrlich sein." Als die Schreckensteiner das benachbarte Mädcheninternat Schloss Rosenfels entdecken, wird das Einhalten der Regel jedoch auf eine harte Probe gestellt. Denn die Rosenfelserinnen sind nicht nur höchst streicherfahren, sondern halten auch von der eisernen Ritterregel rein gar nichts...
