    Summary

    The worship of Greek Gods is going through a bit of a renaissance of late, but since appropriate temples for them to safely manifest on earth are still in very short supply, Hotel Olympus provides a place for them to stay whenever the gods feel the need to make an appearance.

    Charlie is the new front of house manager. She has excellent training and experience. What she doesn't have is the faintest interest in or knowledge of Greek Mythology. But a job’s a job and guests are guests and by all means, if sir and madam want a bowl of fresh pomegranates brought up to the bridal suite she’ll see to it that it happens immediately. She’s dealt with way worse.

    Summary

    What if Jane Austen had selkies in it? That's it. That's the pitch

    For a young lady on her very first excursion to the seaside Miss Marianne Oliver was in deplorable spirits. When the apothecary had advised her father that sea air was the surest restorative for his weak lungs, his daughter had naturally fixed her hopes on them all visiting Bath. That fashionable bathing place, with its springs, piers and glittering assemblies, seemed to her the only possible choice for a gentleman in search of good health and good society.
    That her parents settled instead on summering in the quiet little fishing town of Thirrup was nothing short of incomprehensible to her. Having only just turned nineteen and having never set foot in London, the deprivation of a visit to Bath was a bitter disappointment.

    Summary

    At the beginning of his senior year, Nursey immediately (if unwillingly) realizes two things in quick succession.

    One: A large portion of the Samwell student body is apparently into Dex, even if the guy is completely oblivious to this fact.

    And two: For reasons that Nursey refuses to verbalize, he has a pretty big problem with that.
