Carry On
Rainbow Rowell
Release Date: October 6, 2015
Simon Snow is the worst Chosen One who's ever been chosen.
That's what his roommate, Baz, says. And Baz might be evil
and a vampire and a complete git, but he's probably right.
Half the time, Simon can't even make his wand work, and the
other half, he starts something on fire. His mentor's avoiding him, his
girlfriend broke up with him, and there's a magic-eating monster running
around, wearing Simon's face. Baz would be having a field day with all this, if
he were here -- it's their last year at the Watford School of Magicks, and
Simon's infuriating nemesis didn't even bother to show up.
Carry On - The Rise and Fall of Simon Snow is a ghost story,
a love story and a mystery. It has just as much kissing and talking as you'd
expect from a Rainbow Rowell story - but far, far more monsters.

facade X is a woman adrift, trapped between a dangerous past she can’t remember
and the protection of a seductive man who claims her body—and her soul.
Undone time and again
by his exquisite dominance, X craves and fears his desire in equal measure. And
while she longs for the safety of her tower penthouse, she also yearns to
escape. But X has never known anything or anyone else—until he came along…

giants and worse monsters are stirring for doomsday. To prevent Ragnarok,

When an attack by fire giants forces him to choose between his own safety and
the lives of hundreds of innocents, Magnus makes a fatal decision.
