Her parents told them that they are getting an award for their accomplishments for helping the community and heading toward the ceremony held in a resort called Cheshire Hills. The problem is her oldest brother's girlfriend, Amanda Jones, who is her bully. Amanda is coming, but Mia couldn't tell anyone since she knew that Amanda's family is rich. But when she came across a flier that showed a carnival, it was almost like lightning struck her as she showed it to her family, and they saw the most amazing things that made Mia's eyes widen in wonder and curiosity that she saw in her dreams. But like all dreams, some must fade away. Will she choose to follow the mysterious ringleader that leads her carnival, or will she stay with her family to face the struggles of reality?

Gods of Desterrados & the Unbreakable Curse


Book Description

“...” “Deuce? Did it help?” “...” “Deuces...Manuia?!” Deuce sniffed before finally answering. “I did a terrible thing. MIB and Chaos used me to do something horrible to Angelica. I’m gonna go now before I manifest and kill myself, okay? Wouldn’t wanna go out like a Divine god. I deserve something way less honorable than that. Thanks for the memories, uso...” The line went dead and Silex immediately phoned Priest for an emergency Code: Black. It was code for a suicide advisory call. Right after he got off the line with Silex, Priest exhaled in utter frustration and made the call to Loto. “I need us to break protocol on this. I know we were supposed to play it legit this mission, but this situation is totally off the record right now and it takes precedence, brother. I think Deuce endured the same thing you did with the Sprite Queen. But the situation was at the Boneyard during Florida and Angelica’s incident. He was ‘urged’ by a third party, possibly Tunui or Chaos. MIB had their hands in it as well. I’ll explain more later... Be at the hotel in five minutes,” muttered Priest. “I’m on my way right now!” advised Loto.

The Cheshire Bantams


Book Description

Raised in Birkenhead in 1914 the Bantams were unique as the average height of the volunteers was a mere five foot! Previously denied the opportunity to serve, these men seized this chance to join up. As a result the battalions comprised working class men from all over Britain - Welsh miners, sturdy London dockers, Lancashire mill workers and Merseyside laborers. As part of 35th (Bantam) Division, the Bantams fought on the Somme. The Bantams' casualties were so severe that by early 1917 the Division effectively ceased to exist. Thereafter reinforcements came from the General Pool. They suffered heavily again at Houlthust Forest. The 35th Division played a key part in stopping the German 1918 offensive. Some 900 members of these Battalions lost their lives in The Great War.




Cheshire Crossing


Book Description

In a one-of-a-kind graphic novel collaboration between the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Martian and the beloved illustrator behind Sarah’s Scribbles, Alice, Wendy, and Dorothy team up to save the multiverse, from Wonderland to Neverland and Oz. Originating as fan fiction from the brilliant imagination of Andy Weir, now brought to vivid life by Sarah Andersen, Cheshire Crossing is a funny, breakneck, boundlessly inventive journey through classic worlds as you’ve never seen them before. Years after their respective returns from Wonderland, Neverland, and Oz, the trio meet here, at Cheshire Crossing—a boarding school where girls like them learn how to cope with their supernatural experiences and harness their magical world-crossing powers. But Alice, Wendy, and Dorothy—now teenagers, who’ve had their fill of meddling authority figures—aren’t content to sit still in a classroom. Soon they’re dashing from one universe to the next, leaving havoc in their wake—and, inadvertently, bringing the Wicked Witch and Hook together in a deadly supervillain love match. To stop them, the girls will have to draw on all of their powers . . . and marshal a team of unlikely allies from across the magical multiverse. Advance praise for Cheshire Crossing “Deliciously funny . . . a shrewd and spirited adaptation that will leave audiences hoping for another installment . . . Andersen’s delightful cartoon drawing style meshes perfectly with Weir’s prose, allowing the work to broaden its appeal beyond middle graders to young adults and adults.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
