Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Skate or Die: A Tale of Terror on the Frozen Pond" unravels the chilling saga of a frozen pond that becomes the nexus of supernatural mysteries and ancient curses. When a group of friends ventures onto the ice, their winter wonderland transforms into a battleground of survival against malevolent forces. Each chapter delves deeper into the darkness beneath the ice, where friendships are tested, and the line between the natural and supernatural blurs. Will they escape the icy grip of terror, or will the pond claim them in its frostbitten embrace? In "Skate or Die: A Tale of Terror on the Frozen Pond," readers find themselves on the edge of a frostbitten nightmare, reminiscent of Stephen King's knack for ordinary settings turned sinister and Guillermo del Toro's mastery of weaving folklore with horror. Within its pages lies a passage that encapsulates the eerie essence of the narrative: "As the moon cast its pale light over the frozen pond, shadows danced beneath the ice—a chilling reminder of the pond's dark history. Our laughter faded, replaced by the crackling whispers of the ice, beckoning us deeper into its cursed embrace." Dare to skate into the heart of darkness where friendship faces the ultimate test against the unfathomable. Will you emerge from the shadows unscathed, or will the ice claim your soul? "Skate or Die" is not just a story; it's an invitation to confront the terror lurking beneath the surface. Answer the call and delve into a tale of suspense, mystery, and survival against all odds.

Download or read book Flipped written by Wendelin Van Draanen and published by Ember. This book was released on 2003-05-13 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A classic he-said-she-said romantic comedy! This updated anniversary edition offers story-behind-the-story revelations from author Wendelin Van Draanen. The first time she saw him, she flipped. The first time he saw her, he ran. That was the second grade, but not much has changed by the seventh. Juli says: “My Bryce. Still walking around with my first kiss.” He says: “It’s been six years of strategic avoidance and social discomfort.” But in the eighth grade everything gets turned upside down: just as Bryce is thinking that there’s maybe more to Juli than meets the eye, she’s thinking that he’s not quite all he seemed. This is a classic romantic comedy of errors told in alternating chapters by two fresh, funny voices. The updated anniversary edition contains 32 pages of extra backmatter: essays from Wendelin Van Draanen on her sources of inspiration, on the making of the movie of Flipped, on why she’ll never write a sequel, and a selection of the amazing fan mail she’s received. Awards and accolades for Flipped: SLJ Top 100 Children’s Novels of all time IRA-CBC Children’s Choice IRA Teacher’s Choice Honor winner, Judy Lopez Memorial Award/WNBA Winner of the California Young Reader Medal “We flipped over this fantastic book, its gutsy girl Juli and its wise, wonderful ending.” — The Chicago Tribune “Van Draanen has another winner in this eighth-grade ‘he-said, she-said’ romance. A fast, funny, egg-cellent winner.” — SLJ, Starred review “With a charismatic leading lady kids will flip over, a compelling dynamic between the two narrators and a resonant ending, this novel is a great deal larger than the sum of its parts.” —Publishers Weekly, Starred review

I have zero interest in legendary hockey player Alex Waters or his pretty, beat-up face and six-pack abs. Having a famous pro athlete for a stepbrother means I’m aware that a lot of these guys are notorious f-boys. The only hockey games I attend are under duress. That is, until Alex starts talking books to me. Then he becomes more than just a hot body with the face to match. And soon I discover just how good Alex is with the hockey stick in his pants. But I consider our night of orgasmic magic just that: one night. Except Alex starts to call. And text. And email and send extravagant—and quirky—gifts. Suddenly, he's too difficult to ignore and nearly impossible not to like. The problem? Alex is a total player. And me? I don’t want to be part of the game.
