An action-packed comedy about a fake family that includes a spy, an assassin and a telepath! Master spy Twilight is unparalleled when it comes to going undercover on dangerous missions for the betterment of the world. But when he receives the ultimate assignment—to get married and have a kid—he may finally be in over his head! The midterm exams—with stella stars and tonitrus bolts on the line—are over. Has Anya’s hard work studying classical language paid off? Also, in hopes of advancing her plan B at the class gala, Anya asks Damian to be her dance partner!
The characters in this delicious book are pushed to the point of no
return and seek retribution. But how we get even is not always the
best road to redemption. On the island of Mull, it takes an incomer
to make the locals realise that they need to take matters into
their own hands to maintain the community's reputation. In 'The
Principles of Soap' the value of friendship overcomes adversity and
opportunistic nepotism. In suburban Edinburgh opposing neighbours
find out the hard way that the best method of dealing with a canine
disturbance is not to bury one's head in the sand. And in the final
tale we meet an author on the brink of public ruin who sees the
error of his ways after an act of kindness saves the day. These
four tales show that the exquisite art of getting even is a skill
that sees kindness win over malice. Tantalising and amusing, these
stories show off a darker side but carry with them the author's
trademark warmth and humour.
To gain the power he needs to save his friend from a cursed spirit, Yuji Itadori swallows a piece of a demon, only to find himself caught in the midst of a horrific war of the supernatural!
In a world where cursed spirits feed on unsuspecting humans, fragments of the legendary and feared demon Ryomen Sukuna have been lost and scattered about. Should any demon consume Sukuna’s body parts, the power they gain could destroy the world as we know it. Fortunately, there exists a mysterious school of jujutsu sorcerers who exist to protect the precarious existence of the living from the supernatural!
Hakari and Panda head for Tokyo No. 2 Colony in search of Kashimo. When they enter, they get separated, and Hakari faces Charles, a culling game player and wannabe manga creator! Meanwhile, Panda encounters Kashimo and finds himself overwhelmed by their difference in strength!
Tanjiro sets out on the path of the Demon Slayer to save his sister

Kamado makes a living selling charcoal. But his peaceful life is
shattered when a demon slaughters his entire family. His little
sister Nezuko is the only survivor, but she has been transformed
into a demon herself! Tanjiro sets out on a dangerous journey to
find a way to return his sister to normal and destroy the demon who
ruined his life. Their initial confrontation with Kokushibo, the
most powerful of Muzan's demons, has left Tokito severely wounded
and Genya cut in half-but still alive! Can his regenerative power
heal even this fatal wound? The Hashira Himejima and Sanemi square
off with Kokushibo and unleash all the skill they have against him.
Himejima is blind, but if he can see into the Transparent World he
might have a chance. Who will survive this whirlwind of flashing
blades?

The magical Peter Pan comes to the night nursery of the Darling children, Wendy, John and Michael. He teaches them to fly, then takes them through the sky to Never-Never Land, where they find wolves, Mermaids and… Pirates.
The leader of the pirates is the sinister Captain Hook. His hand was bitten off by a crocodile, who, as Captain Hook explains ‘liked me arm so much that he has followed me ever since, licking his lips for the rest of me’.
After lots of adventures, the story reaches its exciting climax as Peter, Wendy and the children do battle with Captain Hook and his band.
A nerd must fight powerful spirits and aliens all vying for the secret
power of his “family jewel,” so who better to fight alongside him than
his high school crush and a spirit granny?!
Momo Ayase and Okarun are on opposite sides of the paranormal spectrum
regarding what they’ll believe in and what they won’t. Their quest to
prove each other wrong leads them down a path of secret crushes and
paranormal battles they’ll have to participate in to believe!
As Momo and the others fight desperately against the alien invaders, a
recovering Okarun finally comes to and is able to join them.
Unfortunately for him, it’s Tuesday, and that means one thing—the Evil
Eye wants to fight! Thankfully, the invaders quickly capture the Evil
Eye’s attention when they get in the way of his match, and with his
help, the team begins to crush the enemy. But suddenly, Vamola’s suit
is snatched by an octopus-shaped invader, landing the team in dire
straits!
