*A FINALIST FOR THE LOCUS AWARD FOR BEST TRANSLATED NOVEL*

"Like the objects collected in this deliciously haunting book, Midnight Timetable will absorb you in the shadows of its imagination, marvelous oddness, humor, and heart." --Gerardo Sámano Córdova

From the author and translator of the National Book Award finalist and Booker Prize shortlisted Cursed Bunny, comes a novel-in-ghost-stories, set in a mysterious research center that houses cursed objects, where those who open the wrong door might find it's disappeared behind them, or that the echoing footsteps they're running from are their own...

The acclaimed Korean horror and sci-fi writer's goosebump-inducing new book follows an employee on the night shift at the Institute. They soon learn why some employees don't last long at the center. The handkerchief in Room 302 once belonged to the late mother of two sons, whose rivalry imbues the handkerchief with undue power and unravels the lives of those who seek to possess it. Meanwhile a live-streaming, ghost-chasing employee steals a cursed sneaker down the hall, but later finds he can't escape its tread. The cat in Room 206 begins to reveal the crimes of its former family, wanting to understand its own path to the Institute's dimly lit halls.

But Chung's haunted institute isn't just a chilling place to play. As in her astounding collections Cursed Bunny and Your Utopia, these violent allegories subtly excavate the horrors of animal cosmetic testing, "conversion therapy," domestic abuse, and late-stage capitalism. Equal parts bone-chilling, wryly funny, and deeply political, Midnight Timetable is a masterful work of literary horror from one of our time's greatest imaginations.

A small book but a true gem!
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
Max Lucado’s “God Will Use This for Good” is an excellent book that I highly recommend. It’s only 47 pages but the words carry a very strong message for those of us who feel helplessness in our lives. I purchased it because it’s a feeling I have. This book has reminded me time & time again, as I remember what I’ve read or I reread it. It’s an easy read. The book begins with a prayer which I included pictures of. There are 4 short chapters that follow, a response page & finally with uplifting scriptures. The focus of the book is on Joseph, the Son of Jacob. His story is told in the Bible. His Father adored him above his Brothers which in turn made his Brothers hate him. They hated him so much they threw him in a pit they were certain he would die in. Mr. Lucado writes this book with the focus on strength Joseph had to endure 20 years in this pit, as written in the Bible. At the age of 37 he became much more than a 17yo boy thrown in a bottomless pit. Why? He believed. This story is reflected onto us who face dark days. Mr. Lucado writes that God will get us THROUGH these times. THROUGH is a common word in many scriptures. It’s further written that “You’ll get through this. It won’t be painless. It won’t be quick. But God will use this mess for good. In the meantime don’t be foolish or naive. But don’t despair either. With God’s help you will get through this.” The big question is asked do you trust God? If you do Mr. Lucado makes it as easy as A-B-C. “Admit your wrongdoing. Believe that Jesus is who he says he is. Commit your life to his cause.” The response page allows you to reflect a prayer & to sign off. It’s a wonderful ending to a book that carries a powerful message. I feel that message is that God will get me THROUGH my difficult times & I truly believe this because I’m a child of Jesus, the Son of God. I have certain pages highlighted which I flip to easily. If I’m in true need I read the entire book. I can’t write enough on how much this has benefited me at the cost of under $5.00. I feel if you can relate to anything I’ve written, you will greatly benefit from this book.

God Promises
Format: Kindle
The message in “Surviving the Mess of Life” by Max Lucado is well worth reading. It reminded me that no matter what I’m going through or how messed up my life is, the importance to stop and remember Gods’ promises in the Bible.
