But when night falls, he’s forced to confront the monster shaped by bruises, fear, and a life spiraling beyond his control. Everything changes when Daniella Andrade moves in next door. She becomes his hope, his grounding force, and, inevitably, his obsession.

Years later, Vic is a renowned surgeon, saving lives with steady hands while hiding darker impulses beneath the surface. When Dani returns carrying secrets of her own, she discovers the boy she once loved has become a man divided between tenderness and something far more dangerous. And she can’t help wondering whether the monster he’s become is the one she’s been searching for all along.

Lost and uncertain about her future, she’s stunned when famed chef Jacques de Bizet invites her to Paris for a job interview. But moments after they sit down, Jacques collapses, poisoned, and Olivia suddenly finds herself the prime suspect.
Though her palate is gone, Olivia’s extraordinary sense of smell remains intact, sharp enough to detect even the faintest trace of the toxin that killed Jacques. She knows she didn’t do it, but proving her innocence is another matter entirely.
That’s when the Paris Neighborhood Watch steps in: a quirky band of locals fiercely devoted to protecting their corner of the city. Leading them is Augusta Dupin, a brilliant but reclusive detective who rarely leaves her home, assisted by her perceptive British shorthair cat, Chateaubriand.

Enter the GoodReads giveaway for Mass Mothering by Sarah Bruni. A. is an amateur translator trying to survive alone in a harsh, late‑capitalist city. Still recovering from a medical trauma and weighed down by debt, she pays her bills by caring for a young boy who isn’t, and never could be, hers. At night, she loses herself on the dance floor, seeking fleeting moments of connection. That’s where she meets N., who mirrors her emotional numbness and occasionally shares her bed.
While sifting through N.’s sparse belongings, A. discovers a slim book about a distant town where young boys have begun to vanish. Titled Field Notes, it chronicles a group of mothers who gather to grieve their missing sons, their voices blending into a powerful collective lament. A. becomes captivated by their raw sorrow, their fierce resilience, and the instinctive ways they care for one another. When a near‑assault jolts her out of her drifting life, she travels to the town where Field Notes originated, hoping to find its author and the conclusion to his story. Instead, her search uncovers the remnants of a murdered poet, a mysterious woman whose life and legacy will intertwine with A.’s in unexpected and transformative ways.
Told through layered voices, fragments, and testimonies, Mass Mothering is a deeply humane exploration of shared grief, the lingering impact of violence in a globalized world, and the extraordinary, world‑shaping power of a mother’s love.
