Agnes Grey (Completed)

This is the debut novel of English author Anne Brontë, first published in December 1847 ( and originally written under the pen name, Acton Bell). The novel follows governess Agnes Grey as she works with the families of the English gentry, and is considered to be largely based on Brontë's own experiences as a governess. The novel addresses the position of governess and what it entailed, and how it affected a young woman.Cover by @FrankRSP

The Tenant of Wildfell Hall by Anne Bronte

Gilbert Markham is fascinated by Helen Graham, the beautiful and enigmatic woman who has recently moved into Wildfell Hall. He is swift to befriend her and steadfastly refutes the local gossip calling her character and behaviour into question, yet he soon has cause to regret his infatuation, and grave doubts and misgivings begin to arise in his mind. It is only when Helen presents Gilbert with her diary and instructs him to read it that the shocking truth about her past life becomes clear.Anne Brontë was the daughter of Maria (born Branwell) and Patrick Brontë, a poor Irish clergyman in the Church of England. Anne lived most of her life with her family at the parish of Haworth on the Yorkshire moors. Otherwise she attended a boarding school in Mirfield between 1836 and 1837, and between 1839 and 1845 lived elsewhere working as a governess. In 1846 she published a book of poems with her sisters and later two novels, initially under the pen name Acton Bell. Her first novel, Agnes Grey, was published in 1847 with Wuthering Heights. Her second novel, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, was published in 1848. The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is thought to be one of the first feminist novels.Anne died at 29, probably of pulmonary tuberculosis. After Anne's death her sister Charlotte edited Agnes Grey to fix issues with its first edition, but prevented republication of The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. This is one reason why Anne is not as well known as her sisters. Nonetheless both of Anne's novels are considered classics of English literature. Source:Wikipedia

Agnes Grey by Anne Bronte

Drawing heavily from personal experience, Anne Brontë wrote Agnes Grey in an effort to represent the many 19th Century women who worked as governesses and suffered daily abuse as a result of their position.Having lost the family savings on risky investments, Richard Grey removes himself from family life and suffers a bout of depression. Feeling helpless and frustrated, his youngest daughter, Agnes, applies for a job as a governess to the children of a wealthy, upper-class, English family.Ecstatic at the thought that she has finally gained control and freedom over her own life, Agnes arrives at the Bloomfield mansion armed with confidence and purpose. The cruelty with which the family treat her however, slowly but surely strips the heroine of all dignity and belief in humanity.A tale of female bravery in the face of isolation and subjugation, Agnes Grey is a masterpiece claimed by Irish writer, George Moore, to be possessed of all the qualities and style of a Jane Austen title. Its simple prosaic style propels the narrative forward in a gentle yet rhythmic manner which continuously leaves the listener wanting to know more.Anne Brontë, the somewhat lesser known sister, was in fact the first to finish and publish Agnes Grey under the pseudonym of Acton Bell. Charlotte and Emily followed shortly after with Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights.As Anne passed away from what is now known to be pulmonary tuberculosis at the age of just 29, she only published one further title; The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. As feminist in nature as Agnes Grey, Anne's brave voice resonates and permeates during one of the most prejudiced and patriarchal times of English history.

Yep, definitely Loki's kid.

Finnley doesn't think that their life could get any worse. She believes that she is unwanted and unvalued, forgotten by the people that were supposed to love and care for her her entire life. She was told that their parents dropped her off on the steps of a shabby run-down orphanage and never looked back. However, soon Finnley will learn that this is actually far from the truth. Their life finally seems to be starting to take a turn for the better when they get a personal internship with none other than Tony Stark himself along with the resident nerd, Peter Parker. Even though Finnley is still fighting many of their personal demons, she starts to open up to those around her, but of course not too much. Finnley likes to think that they finally have a little control over their life, at least that is until some very strange happenings occur when an odd war criminal that claims to be a god shows up and suddenly everything Finnley thought they knew is thrown out the window. She believes that there is much more to the raven-haired greasy god than he lets on, and she is right. However, there is also a lot more that neither of them knows about the other that they will soon have to discover together. Will this new information, information that brings to light something that Loki thought was forever lost, push the two troublemakers apart, or will it pull them together and create an unbreakable bond that threatens the sanity of everyone around them?─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───for the most part, this is just a crack fic with a little angst sprinkled in and so much fluff it will make you barf

SnowFall on New York (Loki x Reader)[2]

I took his hands in mine frantically, causing his eyes to meet mine. "Then hand over the Tesseract and come home, Loki. Please." "I can't." He pulled away. "If I'm not allowed rule on Asgard, then I'll rule here." My eyebrows knitted together in desperation. "Loki, pleas-" My plea was cut shot as a burst of energy and the distinctive clang of metal on metal pushed me over into the god of mischief. We stumbled backwards until I laid on his chest and he grunted from the sudden impact. "Thor." I cursed under my breath. "Sorry..." I began lifting myself off of his body. I narrowed my gaze and quickly stood to rush into Thor's aid, ignoring his dejected expression. I was about to leap off the cliff side when I heard four words that had me frozen in my place unlike anything my powers could do. "I still love you." ___________________________________________ (Y/N) Ísveig thought she'd made peace with Loki's death. She couldn't bring herself to forgive him for everything he had done, obviously, but she was finally beginning to live the life she always wanted. She was no longer deemed future queen of Asgard, and she was slowly learning to control her amplified ice powers. That is, until the god of mischief decides to attack New York and steal the Tesseract. Now (Y/N) must again face her inner demons as her powers quickly deem too much for her to handle, and all her feelings for Loki resurface even though she forces herself to see him as the enemy. Only time will tell if her, along with the Avengers, can put a stop to his schemes, or if New York will ultimately be engulfed by a thick layer of snow, ice, and death. ___________________________________________ BOOK 2 in the Loki x (Y/N) Ísveig series.

But upon Superior's life-support systems now beginning to fail nearly one hundred years later combined with Aurora's criminal actions that have deemed her and other prisoners under the age of eighteen and yet to experience trial expendable, she now finds herself being sent to Earth nearly a century later along with one hundred and ninety nine delinquents who have little clue on how to survive. Soon upon landing, Aurora realizes very quickly that she must put aside her harsh nature and haunting past and step up to lead her people if they are to survive.

But their leader, an intimidating man by the name of Eadric who leads these people as their Commander, proposes a deal with her to unite their two clans. The only problem? Aurora fails to realize what exactly joining their two clans means, and it is this failure of hers that will lead her into a situation of dire consequence as she will have no choice but to sell her soul to the devil in an arranged marriage to the Commander himself.A/N: Loosely based off the universe of the CW's show The 100.

Eventually, she is forced to face her demons in a big way when one of her new friends is murdered by an unknown assailant. Sumire must overcome her past ghosts and find the killer with a clear mind and empty heart, lest her brother suffer the fatal consequences! Thank you for checking out my very first book, Order & Fate: Rebellious Children! This is the first part of the Order & Fate Series, which I plan on making many more parts for in the future. I've spent the past two years studying battle shounen and fantasy novels, and while I'd say this book is a sufficient love letter to those wonderful forms of literature, I'm also proud to say I've done my part to carve out my own unique style. Another thing, I have a decent stockpile of chapters stored, which I plan on expanding upon each day. That being said, this series won't be dropped or put into indefinite hiatus, and chapters will be released daily unless otherwise stated. Finally, I've done multiple grammar and spell checks, so there shouldn't be any immersion-breaking grammatical issues. If you do find one, though, please leave a comment, and I'll revise! As this is my very first work, any feedback would be very much appreciated! Thank you again for checking this series out! The story is also available on Webnovel, Scribblehub, and Royal Road.Visit my Patreon for advance chapters @ https://www.patreon.com/boenapplet !
