Summary
Every thirteen years, in the haunted town of Haneuljae, eight souls vanish into the cursed forest.

But for Choi San, it’s a nightmare he’s never been able to escape.When the thirteenth summer arrives again, the forest awakens.
A trio of outsiders rolls into town: one of them chasing a story, one writing his thesis, and one just trying to survive.
Meanwhile, the local police spiral into chaos as the bodies begin to pile up, and the forest stretches its limbs in ways no one can predict.And at the center of it all is Wooyoung, who didn’t come to Haneuljae for answers but who finds himself marked by the forest from the moment he sets foot on its soil.

Summary
“You know, I’ll pay you.” Max’s voice cut through his thoughts. In the lingering quiet of the night, it very nearly startled him. “You don’t look like you need the money, but since I have enough to throw around, who better to throw it at than the man who’s been haunting my dreams.”
“What do you mean?” George asked, knowing exactly what he meant. “Pay me for what?”
“You know what.” Max said, looking at him like he was hopeless. “I have to make a masterpiece. You’re my subject, George. You’re my muse.”
Once again, helpless against his childlike insistence, George laughed. “You think you’re going to make a masterpiece out of me?”
Max walked over, sat down on the table next to him. “You’re already a masterpiece, George. I’m just trying to put you on my canvas.”
George almost wanted to let him. He almost wanted to say yes.

Summary
San leaned back on his hands, tilting his head toward the ceiling. He watched the blades of the fan circle overhead in near silence. Tomorrow, they’d be doing this again. And the day after. Then he caught himself.
No. Not the day after.
The thought was still new enough that it didn’t feel real.
Wooyoung’s father had broken the news at the beginning of the summer. We’re moving to Seoul! It’s a great opportunity for me, he had said as Wooyoung sat in stony silence. His father’s voice had softened as he followed up, A great opportunity for us all. You can apply to colleges in the city and really make something of yourself. You can even keep dancing there, I’m sure there’ll be classes you can join!
Wooyoung had been fighting his emotions when he broke the news to them all those weeks ago. The others had formed a tight circle around him as he finally soaked their shirts with his tears. As San joined in the hug, he couldn’t shake the feeling that something was slipping through his fingers, something he hadn’t even held onto yet, something he couldn’t even name.
It felt like someone had pressed pause on the world.

Summary
It’s 1993, and state agent Rio Vidal is put on the case of a fire that resulted in the deaths of three high-ranking members of a small town religious group called the Salem Seven. The only survivor, 21-year-old Agatha Harkness, is stubborn, uncooperative, and her only source of joy seems to be making Rio’s job that much harder. In a moment of sympathy, and maybe even pity, Rio warms up to her anyway. But this seemingly open-and-shut case turns eerie the deeper Rio digs, and the longer Rio stays in the town of Venner, Oklahoma, the more she feels like she isn’t going to like what she finds.

Summary
I like how your voice sounds. Jeongguk wants to say but doesn’t. Instead, he whispers, “I think I know that song.”
Taehyung nods in acknowledgement and continues to hum. At some moments, he opts for singing the melody and keeps his thick lashes fluttered towards the lonesome bugs on the ground.
Are the stars out tonight?
I don’t know if it’s cloudy or bright.
I only have eyes for you, dear.——
Taehyung doesn't know how to handle his feelings towards the new kid in town.
After being sent out west for his delinquent behavior, Jeongguk can't stop running into a boy who is all tan skin and shy eyes.

Summary
After a scandal in Val Royeaux ruins her career and leaves her with nothing but debts and bitterness, Dalavune Lavellan flees to the countryside — to a town she barely remembers and a family past she’d rather avoid. It’s supposed to be temporary, a quiet exile.
But Sulevin has other plans. Stolen graves, a medallion that whispers visions of the past, and howling in the middle of the night — it’s all only the beginning.
Each case she touches drags her deeper: into village feuds, political corruption, and secrets older than the Exalted Plains themselves. In the middle of it all is Solas — elusive, brilliant, dangerous — whose presence both unsettles and fascinates her. Their paths keep tangling, even as agents of Fen’Harel begin to stir trouble in the shadows.
The deeper Lavellan digs, the more she realizes that nothing in Sulevin stays buried for long — not the dead, not the past, and certainly not her heart.
