Bella Swan expects her move to rainy Forks, Washington, to be a total bore—until she locks eyes with the mysterious Edward Cullen. He’s impossibly fast, unnaturally cold, and looks like he stepped off a high-fashion runway.
But Edward isn’t just your average moody high schooler; he’s a vampire who’s been fighting his thirst for decades. When their worlds collide, Bella finds herself in a high-stakes romance where the "bad boy" vibe is literally life or death.
As a rival coven marks Bella as their next target, the Cullens must go all-in to protect her. It’s the ultimate forbidden love story that proves some secrets are worth the danger. Ready to pick a team?

Somewhere between thought and reality exists the Discworld, a magical world not totally unlike our own. Except for the fact that it travels through space on the shoulders of four giant elephants who in turn stand on the shell of an astronomically huge star turtle, of course.
Rincewind is the world’s worst wizard who has just been handed a very important job: to look after the world’s first tourist, upon whose survival rests the peace and prosperity of the land. Unfortunately, their journey across the Disc includes facing robbers, monsters, mercenaries, and Death himself.
And the whole thing’s just a game of the gods that might send them over the edge . . .

Format(s): print, Sora e-book, and Sora audiobook
Imagine being immortal but literally invisible to history. In 1714, Addie LaRue makes a desperate deal with a dark god to escape an unwanted marriage. The catch? She’ll live forever, but she’s cursed to be forgotten by everyone the second she leaves their sight.
For 300 years, Addie exists as a ghost, moving through centuries of art and war, unable to leave a trace—until she walks into a dusty bookstore and hears three impossible words: "I remember you."
Henry is the first person in three centuries who doesn't reset when the door closes. But as their romance sparks, the dark god comes back to collect his debt. It’s a beautifully haunting story about what it means to be seen and the lengths we’ll go to be remembered. Warning: this one will absolutely wreck you.

Helena Marino used to be a rising star in alchemy, but now she’s a prisoner in a world that’s gone completely dark. The war is over, the good guys lost, and the new rulers are a terrifying mix of corrupt elites and necromancers who command armies of the undead.
Helena is "damaged goods" with a massive problem: her memory is totally wiped. The villains think she’s hiding a secret Resistance weapon in her head, so they ship her off to the High Reeve—the most ruthless necromancer alive—to have her mind pried open.
Trapped in a crumbling estate with a captor who is as dangerous as he is mysterious, Helena has to fight to keep her sanity and find out who she really is. It’s a dark, atmospheric fantasy filled with high-stakes tension, "enemies-to-lovers" energy, and secrets that could burn the whole New World down. If you like your magic with a side of psychological warfare, this is it.
