Want : women's fantasies in the twenty-first century / by Anderson, Gillian,1968-editor.;
"A raw, revelatory, and inclusive exploration of women's sexual fantasies, Want is a collection of anonymous letters written by women across the world, curated by the legendary Gillian Anderson. I wonder so many things and I would give anything to know if someone else has these same thoughts, solely so I can know I'm not alone. As women, we know that sex is about more than just sex. It always has been. When we talk about sex, we talk about womanhood and motherhood, infidelity and exploitation, consent and respect, identity and community, love and hate, pleasure and pain. And yet for many reasons -- perhaps shame, guilt, embarrassment, insecurity, social and cultural expectations to name a few -- so many of us don't talk about it. Our deepest, most intimate fears and fantasies remain locked away inside of us, until someone comes along with the key. In this generation-defining book, Gillian Anderson compiles the anonymous letters of hundreds of women to reveal their varied fantasies and how women today really think about sex. From fear and frustrations to BDSM and polyamory, together their stories produce an expansive, inclusive portrait of sexuality in the twenty-first century. The result is an essential and fascinating exploration of not only the broad desires of women, but what it means to be a woman today."--

Rick Riordan Presents: A Touch of Blood [electronic resource] : by Patel, Sajni.aut; cloudLibrary;
Read the Persephone myth like never before in this companion to A Drop of Venom by Sajni Patel, where Greek mythology meets Indian lore. Gods are made, not born. Before Manisha, the youngest of three sisters, was sent to hide on the floating mountain, her eldest sister, Eshani, made a deal with the shades. In order to save her people in the midst of a tragic war, she exchanged her life for theirs. Now, years later, the shades claim their due, dragging Eshani into the Nightmare Realm where she must find the Gatekeeper to fulfill her end of the bargain. Nothing is as it seems in a land filled with ravenous monsters, ghoulish residents, and a river full of the dead. But most terrifying of all is the Shadow King, who intends to use Eshani to obtain immortality. As it turns out, Eshani—nicknamed “little goddess of spring”—is the key to fulfilling the Nightmare Realm’s prophecy. There’s only one person who can help Eshani escape, and he has his own problems. Hiran has spent most of his life hiding, but destiny beckons, and he can no longer resist the call of the realm. But how can a stowaway, long thought to be dead, save an entire world? Nothing will stop the Nightmare Realm from getting what it wants. Except maybe a king in the making and a goddess rising. Endorsed by Rick Riordan, author of Percy Jackson and the Olympians, now a hit series on Disney+.Primary and secondary school.

Who we are in real life / by Koops, Victoria,author.;
"IRL, Darcy has just moved to the small prairie town of Unity Creek with her two moms. It feels like she left everything good behind in the city. She misses her tabletop gaming friends and her boyfriend--and is horrified by the homophobia her family faces in their new home. Then she meets kind, quiet Art, who invites her to join his Dungeons & Dragons game. Art is mostly happy fading into the background at school and only really coming alive during his friends' weekly D&D game--until meeting Darcy pulls his life off-course in wonderful and alarming ways. Suddenly he has something worth fighting for. But what if that something puts him in conflict with his father, an influential and conservative figure in their town? Can Art stand up against his father's efforts to prevent Darcy and her friends from starting a queer-straight alliance at school? Meanwhile, in game, Darcy's and Art's D&D characters join forces to fight corruption as they grow closer in the homebrew world of Durgeon's Keep--as fantasy and reality collide."--

Frantic, Lilith turns to the only man who can help her: Zahariev, head of the Zareth family and ruler of Nineveh.

Together, they embark on a mission to discover the true power running their world.
