collage of dark gritty images: a run-down neighborhood, a snippet of code, a man in an ICU bed, an FBI badge, a woman in a hoodie, her face lit by a computer screen, a crumpled ballot, a computer screen, a woman's hand poised over a brain, a woman walking alone on a dark city street.
MR ROBOT x THE GREAT HACK—But if Lisbeth Salander had someone to save, and everything to lose.
At 16, Quinn wrote a virus for revenge. At 26, she built a propaganda engine that radicalized a nation.
Now the FBI wants her to undo it. She can change minds—but can she change the right ones in time?
Me, waiting for the ISWF to announce their summer workshops

From my inability to empty the mailbox everyday to enduring a constant internal monologue resembling a caged beast who is hyper-critical and always hungry, I chronicle my life as a wife, mother and business owner with ADHD. #questpit #A #NF #Q

A notebook filled with text. Ellie's to-do list: Find Dad's true killer Lunch with Theo Visitation hours with mom Repress trauma (underlined) Mind control a corrupt CEO Wait for eyes to stop glowing Contemplate morality (half crossed out) Get cat out of garbage disposal Training with Shadow, stop staring at his arms
Look, Ellie's been busy, ok? Ever since the accident that gave her+her bro mysterious powers, she's been balancing the hunt for her dad's killer, a new double-life of lies and complicated morality, & her growing attraction to Shadow, the demon-masked vigilante killing the rich #questpit #Q #A #SF #R

He needs a job.
She needs an engineer.
The kingdom needs a hero.
A swordswinging countess recruits a disgraced alchemist to help her salvage an ancient war machine and reclaim her birthright in THE CATAPHRACT OATH, a swashbuckling clockpunk mecha adventure.

a collage of images. The words read: 'Tread softly t'ward the apple tree'. The images are: rotting apples, a girl in a white dress entering a lake. A tree in a misty forest. A girl's bare, dirty feet. A cluster of mushrooms. Two sisters in the woods. A drawing of a drowning girl
Don't anger the forest.
And yet Vivi does just that when her little sister is taken. Facing ancient monsters and uncovering the terrifying truth that lies at the heart of it all, Vivi discovers just how powerful her rage can be.
OVER THE GARDEN WALL X GALLANT

12yo Paige can breakdown when to run the draw play or go for it on 4th down. Easy peasy. The rules of football make sense. But when her Commentary Clubmates call "penalty" for being a football-loving girl, she'll learn that unfair rules are meant to be tackled.

A collage of images. One woman with her skin cracking and light shining through. A ghostly girl with her back to you. A girl sinking through water. A mossy lake. snowdrops. A girl in a misty forest. Mushrooms
Do you bow to tradition or burn it all down?

Forced into a seasonal bride auction against her will, Dahlia must court the nation’s most wealthy and infamous bachelors. Not so bad… if they weren’t also members of a sinister cult.

His.
Hers.
The truth.
The "official" version is that sex siren Monroe "accidentally" killed herself.
Only a few--like Pops--knew what happened. Now it's up to Parker, his son/disgraced PI, to pick up the trail. It just may cost him his life.
