    Summary

    The film industry isn’t kind to people like Boothill.
    Not to the ones who come from nowhere.
    Not to the ones who don’t belong.
    Between long shifts, silent humiliation, and a world that rewards appearances over truth, he learns quickly: staying quiet is survival.
    Until someone looks at him—and doesn’t look away.

    Summary

    Says Mark Blake in the book “Is This Real Life? The Untold Story of Queen”: “The phrase ‘behind every great man there is always a great woman’ seems curiously appropriate to the story of Queen.” This quote, even the title of the book itself, can be intrinsically incorporated into this biography-novel.

    Since the ‘Mourning March’ in 1991, for Freddie Mercury's funeral, the discovery of a column about to become lost media stirred a group of research fans decades later: a written record of “Jo M.”, a controversial eminence grise who, reportedly, since Brian May's illness during the troubled production of “Sheer Heart Attack”, participated in a unknown Queen line-up from 1974 to 1982.

    “She's a revolutionary invisible force who moves things we had no idea about until now,” says her interviewer and co-biographer.

    Summary

    Billy Hargrove is more than pissed about his new life in Hawkins. He hits the town like a hurricane, intent on shaking the local high school to its core. The only thing saving him from a slow agonizing death by boredom is the Harrington girl who seems totally unphased by anything he has to say. But he plans on changing that. What started as a simple hunt to boost his ego and add her to his list of conquests, soon turns into something he hadn't exactly planned for.

    or: Everyone knows that Billy is a narcissistic asshole with anger issues. What they don’t know is that his whole life has been a series of traumatic events and that under the mask he has crafted over the years, he’s a total mess. What happens when he runs into a girl with her own past and scars who refuses to put up with his bullshit?

    Summary

    When Christine comes down with chicken pox at thirty-six, Mary Beth is the one who stays.

    It should be simple: soup, clean sheets, keeping her comfortable until the fever breaks.

    But there’s something about the quiet, the closeness, the way Christine lets herself be taken care of that shifts things—slowly, then all at once. By the time they’re alone together again weeks later, neither of them is pretending not to notice anymore.

    Some things don’t go back the way they were.

    Summary

    Renjun thinks it’s just a summer job. Jisung thinks he’s about to get another adult who won’t care much about him.

    In a mountain cottage above a small town, with a strict grandmother and far too much free time, they build a daily life out of books, hikes, flowers, and little acts of rebellion. It is only supposed to last one summer. Instead, it becomes the story they will grow into — and one day have to reckon with.

    Summer, growing up, first love, Blooming Daisies, the garden, and the 80s.

    Little did Will know this trip would end in him having everything he's ever wanted.

    Little did Will know the only thing Mike's ever wanted is to give him everything he wants.

    Little did they both know their love will grow more than known to man with each day that passes.

    The perfect endgame they've always dreamed of.

    Summary

    "Michael!" She pulled her door shut and ran up to him, somehow not tripping in her heels. He opened his arms and caught her when her body lightly collided with his. "Hey baby," he murmured into her hair, voice like warm honey.

    God, his voice made her melt into his arms even more, the familiar, slightly powdery scent of his cologne was making her heady and weak in the knees.

    Summary

    “I know I fucked up.”

    “No, John—you don’t.”

    Gaz stepped closer.

    And then everything spilled.

    “You wanna know what your problem is?” Gaz snapped. “You think because you’re loud enough, reckless enough, fucked up enough, the rest of us are supposed to revolve around whatever disaster you’ve made this week.”

    Soap opened his mouth.

    Gaz cut him off.

    “No. Shut up. You’re gonna listen for once.”

    alternatively: a familiar face from Gaz's past brings back unpleasant memories; Soap is struggling to keep clean

    Summary

    "And when the sun falls graciously from the sky, who cloaks itself in grieved darkness," Mike's eyes settled on his own, and Will felt in close affiliation to the falling sun, with his face burning in panic and some buried feeling he did not know how to confront. But Mike's soft smile was as bright and unfaltering as the galaxy of stars. "I shall return. As sure as the rise of the day."

    Will Byers – the sole survivor of the Stillwater Serial killer – has spent most of his adolescence locked within the safety of his own home, or rotting away in hospitals and police offices: constantly pushing to see justice served, in light of his near-death experience at no older than eleven. Five years pass, and it is not until his brother returns home from New York that he gets a taste for a normal life. With enough convincing, he leaves the ghost town of Roane County and moves to All Saints Academy in Vermont, where he is yet to face a brand-new beginning, starting with three enigmatic Dungeons and Dragons players, and ending – hopefully – with a clean school record slate. Right?

    OR:

    Will Byers is traumatised and finds friendship in the most unexpected of places.

    Summary

    Tiffany Bogard might appear to be your normal teenage girl living in 1984 in a lonely and unknown town named Northstar Rigde. Her life is full of school homeworks, mall adventures, parties every weekened, crushes and school friendships; all before she can turn 18.
    However, as her life moves onwards, Tiffany notices things that shouldn't be repeated, this triggers something that she didn't even think before: to search for the truth. Because maybe, her world and actions were already computed by someone else, someone outside of the simulation.
