Evelyn Hugo is finally
ready to tell the truth about her glamorous and scandalous life. But
when she chooses unknown magazine reporter Monique Grant for the job, no
one in the journalism community is more astounded than Monique herself.
Why her? Why now?
Monique is not exactly on top of the world.
Her husband, David, has left her, and her career has stagnated.
Regardless of why Evelyn has chosen her to write her biography, Monique
is determined to use this opportunity to jumpstart her career.
Summoned
to Evelyn’s Upper East Side apartment, Monique listens as Evelyn
unfurls her story: from making her way to Los Angeles in the 1950s to
her decision to leave show business in the late 80s, and, of course, the
seven husbands along the way. As Evelyn’s life unfolds through the
decades—revealing a ruthless ambition, an unexpected friendship, and a
great forbidden love—Monique begins to feel a very a real connection to
the actress. But as Evelyn’s story catches up with the present, it
becomes clear that her life intersects with Monique’s own in tragic and
irreversible ways.
On September 5, a little
after midnight, Death-Cast calls Mateo Torrez and Rufus Emeterio to
give them some bad news: They’re going to die today.
Mateo and
Rufus are total strangers, but, for different reasons, they’re both
looking to make a new friend on their End Day. The good news: There’s an
app for that. It’s called the Last Friend, and through it, Rufus and
Mateo are about to meet up for one last great adventure—to live a
lifetime in a single day.
It's the summer before
grade six and Calvin Sinclair is bored to tears. He’s recently moved
from a big city to a small town and there's nothing to do. It’s hot, he
has no friends and the only kid around is his six-year-old brother,
Sammy, who can barely throw a basketball as high as the hoop. Cal
occupies his time by getting his brother to do almost anything: from
collecting ants to doing Calvin’s chores. And Sammy is all too eager -
as long as it means getting a "Level" and moving one step closer to his
brother's Eagle status.
When Calvin meets Aleta Alvarado, a new girl who shares his love for Goosebumps
books and adventure, Sammy is pushed aside. Cal feels guilty but not
enough to change. At least not until a diagnosis makes things at home
start falling apart and he's left wondering whether Sammy will ever
complete his own journey...
From Ant To Eagle.
