  3. Summary

    "The circus arrives without warning. No announcements precede it, no paper notices on downtown posts and billboards, no mentions or advertisements in local newspapers. It is simply there, when yesterday it was not."

     

    "Magic," the man in the grey suit repeats, turning the word into a laugh. "This is not magic. This is the way the world is, only very few people take the time to stop and note it."

     

    "The heart of the tale and the ideas behind it are simple. Time has altered and condensed their nuances, made them more than story, greater than the sums of their parts. But that requires time. The truest tales require time and familiarity to become what they are."

     

    "Then the iron gates shudder and unlock, seemingly by their own volition. They swing outward, inviting the crowd inside.
    Now the circus is open.
    Now you may enter."

    -The Night Circus, by Erin Morgenstern

    Summary

    When a high-profile diplomat is assassinated at a global peace summit, the world teeters on the brink of war. The killer’s identity shocks the intelligence community, it appears to be Ilsa Faust, a former MI6 agent who vanished months earlier without a trace. Now labeled a traitor and hunted by every major agency, Ilsa is marked for death. But IMF operative Ethan Hunt doesn’t buy the story. Haunted by her disappearance and driven by a loyalty he can’t explain, Ethan defies orders to find her first, before the CIA does.

    As the chase deepens, Ethan and his team uncover whispers of a rising threat, something vast, hidden, and terrifying in its implications. Fractures form within the team as secrets unravel and trust wears thin. Ilsa knows more than she’s letting on. And somewhere in the shadows, a dangerous force is watching them all. With time running out and global powers on the verge of collapse, Ethan must decide how much he’s willing to sacrifice to stop a threat he doesn’t yet understand, and to save the one person he’s not sure he ever truly had.

    Summary

    “This is important to me,” Liam says, and Theo can’t fight the small smile that breaks across his lips. “I’m not gonna keep it a secret just because Stiles wants to fight you behind a Denny’s or whatever.”

    -

    Or: When Liam decides it's time to let the pack know about their relationship, it goes about as well as Theo had expected. Which is to say: not at all.

    Summary

    Witchers walk far and see much. They know death; they hold it in their hands and bear it on their backs (they grieve for those it has stolen).

     

    But death is not the ultimate end, not really.
