As she emerges from the prison of a Puritan New England town, Hester Prynne defies the dark gloom much as the rose blooms against the prison door. With her illegitimate baby, Pearl, clutched in her arms and the letter A - the mark of an adulteress - embroidered in scarlet thread on her breast, Hester holds her head high as she faces the malice and scorn of the townsfolk. Her powerful, bittersweet story is an American classic that continues to touch the hearts of modern readers with its timeless themes of guilt, passion and repentance.

"The Hunting of the Snark (An Agony in 8 Fits)" is a poem written by English writer Lewis Carroll. It is typically categorized as a nonsense poem. Written from 1874 to 1876, the poem borrows the setting, some creatures, and eight portmanteau words from Carroll's earlier poem "Jabberwocky" in his children's novel Through the Looking-Glass (1871).

Connell and Marianne grew up in the same small town, but the similarities end there. At school, Connell is popular and well liked, while Marianne is a loner. But when the two strike up a conversation - awkward but electrifying - something life changing begins. A year later, they’re both studying at Trinity College in Dublin. Marianne has found her feet in a new social world while Connell hangs at the sidelines, shy and uncertain. Throughout their years at university, Marianne and Connell circle one another.

Not much happens but interesting nonetheless

Captures the indelible nature of young love
In her sophomore novel, Sally Rooney captures the indelible nature of young love with stunning precision. Connell and Marianne begin their relationship in high school, where they pretend not to know each other. He the popular captain of the football team and she a mousy loner, their roles reverse in university in ways these archetypal personalities so often do in real life. In their on-and-off pseudo-relationship, the pair orbit each other like planets but never quite come together. I devoured Normal People like a woman starving and felt its words like a physical thing; often I'd find my heart actually hurting not because it's particularly sad — although it has its moments — but because the author managed to articulate such a specific human experience with staggering empathy. Coupled with lilting, Irish-accented narration by Aoife McMahon, Normal People is easily my favourite book of 2019. (So far!)

Botanist Alfred Homer, ever hopeful and constantly surprised, is invited on a road trip by his parents’ friend, Professor Morgan Bruno, who wants company as he tries to unearth the story of the mysterious poet John Skennen. But this is no ordinary road trip. Alfred and the Professor encounter towns where Black residents speak only in sign language and towns that hold indigenous parades; it is a land of house burnings, werewolves, and witches.

The latest from Giller winner André Alexis
Botanist Alfred Homer is out of sorts. In the space of a year, his parents have died in a tragic car accident, and his partner has broken off their engagement. When eccentric literary scholar Morgan Bruno invites him on a quest to find a vanished poet, Alfred leaps at the chance to break the mundanity and heartbreak of his present life. And yet, in the tradition of all great road trips, he gets much more than he bargained for.
A Gulliver's Travels-esque epic set in southern Ontario, Days by Moonlight hooked me with its whimsical celebration of the province's natural wonders, as well as its sobering reflections on death, religion, race, and society in modern Canada. Alexis’ mellifluous narration is also the perfect vehicle for the philosophical ponderings and absurdist scenarios that light up his work.

Queenie Jenkins is a 25-year-old Jamaican British woman living in London, straddling two cultures and slotting neatly into neither. She works at a national newspaper, where she’s constantly forced to compare herself to her white middle-class peers. After a messy break-up from her white long-term boyfriend, Queenie seeks comfort in all the wrong places...including several hazardous men who do a good job of occupying brain space and a bad job of affirming self-worth.

Takes aim at the indignities young women face
'''Being brave isn't the same as being okay,' my mum said quietly.''
Queenie Jenkins is not having a good year. Fresh from a breakup and struggling in her job at a national newspaper, our titular heroine — a 25-year-old Jamaican British woman — begins to engage in self-destructive behaviour with men who take advantage of her vulnerability. As Queenie gradually learns how to ask for help dealing with issues stemming from a fraught childhood, Candice Carty-Williams's debut takes aim at the indignities that young women — and, in particular, women of colour — face while moving about in the world. Narrator Shvorne Marks inhabits the multicultural city of London in all its varied accents with skillful ease, making for a truly stellar listen.

Daisy is a girl coming of age in LA in the late '60s, sneaking into clubs on the Sunset Strip, sleeping with rock stars, and dreaming of singing at the Whisky a Go Go. The sex and drugs are thrilling, but it’s the rock and roll she loves most. By the time she’s 20, her voice is getting noticed, and she has the kind of heedless beauty that makes people do crazy things. Also getting noticed is The Six, a band led by the brooding Billy Dunne.

An unmatched audio experience
From start to finish, I was addicted to this book. A multi-cast performance done right can catapult the audiobook version of a novel into a whole new echelon of entertainment, and Daisy Jones & The Six is such an experience. I've always been a Jennifer Beals fan, and I'm so pleased she was chosen to voice Daisy; she does an incredible job of embodying a former superstar recounting her turbulent past of sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll. This fictional exposé of a band years after their breakup will have you so wrapped up in their story that you'll surely forget it isn't about a real musical act.

A scholarship student who prefers the company of her dark imagination to that of most people, she is utterly repelled by the rest of her fiction writing cohort - a clique of unbearably twee rich girls who call each other "Bunny", and seem to move and speak as one. But everything changes when Samantha receives an invitation to the Bunnies' fabled "Smut Salon"....

A darkly funny, spooky little story
Bunny is a darkly funny, spooky little story following Samantha, a cynical outsider in a highly selective MFA program. Her solitary world tilts off its axis when she's invited to a private soirée hosted by a group of intolerably bubbly classmates who refer to each other only as ''Bunny.'' There, she finds the belonging she'd secretly craved, but it comes at a cost. Soon, the edges of reality become filmy and permeable, where magical and monstrous creations are conjured with the power of the group's twisted imagination.
Mona Awad's sophomore novel delves into the push-and-pull of solitude and bonding; of the importance of creating meaningful connections with your peers while retaining a sense of self.

Millie, 30, just can't pull it together. Misanthropic and morose, she spends her days killing time at a thankless temp job until she can return home to her empty apartment, where she oscillates between self-recrimination and mild delusion, fixating on all the little ways she might change her life. Then she watches TV until she drops off to sleep, and the cycle begins again. When the possibility of a full-time job offer arises, it seems to bring the better life she's envisioning within reach. But with it also comes the paralyzing realization of just how hollow that vision has become.
A perfect encapsulation of millennial angst
Millie is a 30-year-old temp who can't seem to marshal the emotional energy to assert any control over her life. Instead, she fervently imagines what her new life could look like if only she changed her job, life, wardrobe, and attitude — all the while falling asleep in front of the TV every night. It's an all-too-familiar refrain, isn't it? How many times have you promised yourself that your diet starts Monday, or that you're for-real-this-time going to start practicing yoga, or that you're finally going to start using the meditation app your therapist recommended? (Too specific?) The New Me is a perfect encapsulation of existential millennial angst and corporate disillusionment and for that reason it's not for everyone. But if any of this rings true to your experience, then this author-narrated listen might just be the perfect thing to hold a mirror up to your own neuroses.
