My father is a rich merchant, and he wanted me to join him in business. I wanted to write poetry and to become a great poet. It angered him so, that he sent me away, to stay with an uncle, Sir Hildebrand Osbaldistone, in Northumberland.
What should I do now? How can I patch things with my father, but without going into his business?

I need a book that takes place during the medieval ages. Something with kings and queens, knights, prince and princesses. I also want it to be a suspense but it has to have romance in it. So basically a romance novel taking place in that time but with a suspense twist to it..

Anybody got any ideas?

..Charles Dickens was an English writer whose novels depicted and criticized social injustice.

..Un-doubtly the most notable character created by Dickens (or anyone for that matter) was Ebenezer Scrooge, from "A Christmas Carol."

Nearly 165 years later, writers of books, films and TV are still using this horrible, cold-hearted, selfish, lonely, Christmas hating, tyrant, as a metaphor to remind us of how precious our family,
..AND the Holiday season, truly is.

..With that in mind. ;)

What is your favorite version, or spin, on A Christmas Carol?

So I just finished the book, and I really didn't understand the ending. As far as moving on without his father with some other family, I understood fine, but I felt like there was a theme I missed like, you'll always find others that have good intentions or that the father and soon were in denial of there being any part of the world that was still the same before the catastrophe. Can someone help me out?

Also, I feel like an idiot for asking, but why was the world in such shambles? What caused the catastrophe? I guess I read sort of fast and didn't catch it.

If i saw one, it would turn into a newspaper saying that JK Rowling has passed away and Sirius Black wasn't ever a character.

If i honestly saw a boggrt, it would turn into a paper stating Harry Potter bks. were disbanded. Honestly, i mean it!
