Beautiful Red M. Darusha Wehm http://feedbooks.com/userbook/2548 en 2007 The future is boring. Technology has solved most of the world’s most pressing problems, leaving people with tedious work and mundane play. Jack is a Security Officer Class 5, which sounds important, but isn’t. However, her banal life as a cubicle worker by day and tinkerer by night is interrupted when she discovers that her employer’s computer system has been invaded. Jack enlists the help of her only friends – her co-worker, Gilles and Adrian, an online friend she’s never met – to help her track down the source of the invasion. Her investigation leads her to a shadowy group called the Red, where Jack learns that not everyone lives a life of quiet servitude. Even though she believes that the Red are responsible for a series of gruesome attacks, Jack begins to become attracted to their worldview. In her search for the people responsible for the attacks, she confronts the leaders of the group as well as her own burgeoning sense of self-awareness. science fiction thriller computers ai mystery cyberpunk future women http://feedbooks.com/userbook/2548.png http://feedbooks.com/userbook/2548.pdf http://feedbooks.com/userbook/2548.epub http://feedbooks.com/userbook/2548.mobi Uncollected Stories Small Stories http://feedbooks.com/userbook/7283 en 2009 The second collection from the popular Feedbooks download author. 50 microfictions - sometimes funny, sometimes disturbing, always perfect for mobile reading. funny fiction weird short story surreal microfiction flash fiction very short story mobile reading quirky http://feedbooks.com/userbook/7283.png http://feedbooks.com/userbook/7283.pdf http://feedbooks.com/userbook/7283.epub http://feedbooks.com/userbook/7283.mobi Password Incorrect Nick Name http://feedbooks.com/book/3127 en 2008 Short Fiction Collections 25 short, sometimes funny and sometimes mean stories ideal to rediscover the joy of reading a book as shiny and beautiful as a brand new cell phone.

"If Lyla had still been there to talk him out of it, Kal knew that he would never have even suggested this solution, let alone volunteered for it. He stood alone in the middle of a large, barren field, staring up at the monolith that was an energy plant, and he could feel the heat of the world gathering beneath his feet. Two days had already gone by, two more days of heartache and fear, of disbelief and thick, destructive denial. Despite the official pleas from the Board, and despite the few ready rockets off-world that had already left for the colonies, most of the population refused to budge from their homes on only the word of Jor-El. Kal’s breathing was quick and nervous in the heated air. All of those people were depending on his bravery, his intellect… …and on the nuclear bomb strapped to the hood of his small electric car.

Departing from literary convention, Kate Chopin failed to condemn her heroine's desire for an affair with the son of a Louisiana resort owner, whom she meets on vacation. The power of sensuality, the delusion of ecstatic love, and the solitude that accompanies the trappings of middle- and upper-class life are the themes of this now-classic novel. As Kaye Gibbons points out in her Introduction, Chopin "was writing American realism before most Americans could bear to hear that they were living it." http://feedbooks.com/book/342.png http://feedbooks.com/book/342.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/342.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/342.mobi How To Disappear Completely David Bowick http://feedbooks.com/userbook/3115 en 2009 www.bowick.net/books/ Sitting at the top of a Ferris wheel overlooking the Boston skyline, Josh’s life takes an unexpected turn, and things will never be the same.

At first Wanda does not want to, but later embraces the idea; though at the same time, she disdains Severin for allowing her to do so. Severin describes his feelings during these experiences as suprasensuality. Wanda treats him brutally as a servant, and recruits a trio of African women to dominate him. The relationship arrives at a crisis point when Wanda herself meets a man to whom she would like to submit. Severin, humiliated by Wanda's new lover, ceases to desire to submit, stating that men should dominate women until the time when women are equal to men in education and rights. Probably the first book which blatantly addresses the issue of female sexual domination, this is today a classic of the genre and it is the author from whom the word masochism takes its name. http://feedbooks.com/book/190.png http://feedbooks.com/book/190.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/190.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/190.mobi
