Full Metal Panic Short Stories Volume 6 Inevitable Six Feet Under

He may have survived the world’s most dangerous battlefields, but Sagara Sousuke is finding his tenure in high school to be no less intense. In addition to having to master new skills—navigating a romance for a karate-obsessed rival, subbing in as an actor for a tyrannical movie director, drafting a prospective student pamphlet for a special reward—his relationship with Chidori Kaname is becoming more complicated. After he participates in a girl hunt (to help out a friend, of course) and unleashes a biohazard in his homeroom class... if enemy snipers don’t put him in an early grave, Kaname just might!

What could be more romantic than Christmas Eve on a cruise ship? That's what Kaname is thinking when her school decides to schedule a make-up class trip... at least, until Sousuke declares that he's made other plans. He'll soon find that he's needed, though, as the ship finds itself beset by half-hearted terrorists, killer robots in the hold, and worst of all—a wannabe hero who's seen too much Die Hard! With the specter of Amalgam hanging over everything, can Sousuke probe the mystery behind them, while also keeping Kaname safe from harm?

Now a major motion picture starring Cole Sprouse and Haley Lu Richardson! Goodreads Choice Winner, Best Young Adult Fiction of 2019 In this #1 New York Times bestselling novel that’s perfect for fans of John Green’s The Fault in Our Stars, two teens fall in love with just one minor complication—they can’t get within a few feet of each other without risking their lives. Can you love someone you can never touch? Stella Grant likes to be in control—even though her totally out of control lungs have sent her in and out of the hospital most of her life. At this point, what Stella needs to control most is keeping herself away from anyone or anything that might pass along an infection and jeopardize the possibility of a lung transplant. Six feet apart. No exceptions. The only thing Will Newman wants to be in control of is getting out of this hospital. He couldn’t care less about his treatments, or a fancy new clinical drug trial. Soon, he’ll turn eighteen and then he’ll be able to unplug all these machines and actually go see the world, not just its hospitals. Will’s exactly what Stella needs to stay away from. If he so much as breathes on Stella she could lose her spot on the transplant list. Either one of them could die. The only way to stay alive is to stay apart. But suddenly six feet doesn’t feel like safety. It feels like punishment. What if they could steal back just a little bit of the space their broken lungs have stolen from them? Would five feet apart really be so dangerous if it stops their hearts from breaking too?

Amusement parks are places of wonder and fun for all ages... right? Well, that's not quite the case for Amagi Brilliant Park, a "crummy" amusement park on the outskirts of Tokyo where the snacks are inedible, the attractions are falling apart, and the mascots regularly get into fistfights with the guests. It's the kind of place that cool, handsome, brilliant Kanie Seiya wouldn't be caught dead in... until a mysterious girl drags him there--at literal gunpoint--and demands that he help them save the park! From the author of Full Metal Panic!

Hiroshima is the story of six people—a clerk, a widowed seamstress, a physician, a Methodist minister, a young surgeon, and a German Catholic priest—who lived through the greatest single manmade disaster in history. In vivid and indelible prose, Pulitzer Prize–winner John Hersey traces the stories of these half-dozen individuals from 8:15 a.m. on August 6, 1945, when Hiroshima was destroyed by the first atomic bomb ever dropped on a city, through the hours and days that followed. Almost four decades after the original publication of this celebrated book, Hersey went back to Hiroshima in search of the people whose stories he had told, and his account of what he discovered is now the eloquent and moving final chapter of Hiroshima.

These twelve dazzling stories from Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie — the Orange Broadband Prize–winning author of Half of a Yellow Sun — are her most intimate works to date. In these stories Adichie turns her penetrating eye to the ties that bind men and women, parents and children, Nigeria and the United States. In “A Private Experience,” a medical student hides from a violent riot with a poor Muslim woman, and the young mother at the centre of “Imitation” finds her comfortable life in Philadelphia threatened when she learns that her husband has moved his mistress into their Lagos home. Searing and profound, suffused with beauty, sorrow and longing, this collection is a resounding confirmation of Adichie’s prodigious literary powers.
